DMM patch notes specifically said this (no idea why some charactes are breaking here, but it's under 2018/03/30 patch notes, second + mark):

I have no idea why they said "equipment" (装備) for the bonus points, I assume that's just shorthand to include both weapons and Eidolons.
EDIT: Oh hey, レアリティ is rarity, not reality. My bad.

tl;dr; there should be no change in drop rates for anything that you care about. Assuming DMM did the maths right.

Speaking of maths... in the name of truth, I think there's something that I need to address since it seems apparent that nobody else picked it up.

When you add ignorance to stupidity, it gets worse.

Maths don't lie, mates. Don't like it? Prove it wrong.

Which honestly shouldn't have been difficult. Since people who use maths do lie. In other words, this:

Was bullshit!

While Light Nike is stronger than on-element Hime, the actual number is lower. Around 14% is more correct - still a substantial upgrade over any on-element Hime, but not quite P2W Eidolon level.

So, let's go over that 14%.
Light Nike brings 180% Assault to 300% Assault, so 4 (100% base + Light Nike's buff + weapons) / 2.8 (100% base + weapons) = ~1.428
Because we can disregard Light Nike doing ANY damage off-element, you have 4 Hime (well, 3 Hime + Soul) dealing damage. So 4 Hime * 1.428 = 5.714 damage output.
5.714 / 5 (which would be the normal amount of damage you'd get with five on-element Hime) = 1.142
Thus, ~14% increase. Of course, we have to remember that at the very earliest, this applies on turn 11. Content doesn't take you that long? Don't bring Light Nike.

Of course, this number can be mathematically challenged fairly easily. For example, this calculation entirely ignores damage caps (pre-Light Nike 700k burst hitters would hit damage cap with Light Nike) or damage skills used by the potential fifth party member. Please do challenge it - I'd love to go through the subject more thoroughly.

But I'm not expecting much. It is truly sad that there are pretty much no more mathematically inclined people left.

This has annoyed me for a long time, for example when I said that at... uh, was it 84 AP? You hit the point where you can infinitely pot for Gem Quests and get your pots back. I did those maths very quickly, very poorly and with assumptions I shouldn't have made. I thought that people would call me out and ask how I reached that conclusion - but nobody did. People just took it for gospel. So is 84 AP the right number? I don't know. My pot count seems to be going up when I'm not spending them outside of Gem Quests, so the number should be below 107 AP. As such, I don't really care.
