104edo has two different equally viable 5-limit [[val]]s, and both are useful. The flat major third val, {{val| 104 165 241 }} ([[patent val]]), tempers out [[3125/3072]], and [[support]]s [[magic]] temperament. The sharp major third val, {{val| 104 165 242 }} (104c val), tempers out [[2048/2025]] and supports [[diaschismic]] temperament.
104edo is a strong no-fives system, with good approximations up to the no-5 19-limit. In the [[2.3.7.11.13 subgroup|2.3.7.11.13-subgroup]], it tempers out [[352/351]], [[364/363]], [[896/891]], [[2197/2187]], [[10648/10647]], 16807/16731, 20449/20412, 21632/21609, and 26411/26364.<!-- Add commas in 2.3.7.11.13.17.19 as well --> It is an excellent tuning for the 2.3.7.11.13-subgroup [[rank]]-3 [[parapyth]] temperament tempering out 352/351, 364/363, and 896/891, which maps [[14/11]] to the diatonic major third and [[13/11]] to the diatonic minor third, in fact providing the [[optimal patent val]]. Additionally, it supports the extension to prime 17 known as [[etypyth]], which maps 17/14 to the augmented second, though [[121edo]] is a more optimal tuning of it. It also provides the optimal patent val for the 2.3.7.11.13-subgroup {{nowrap| 17 & 87 }} temperament tempering out 352/351, 364/363 and 2197/2187, which splits 3/1 into three ~13/9's, and can be considered a rank-2 reduction of parapyth.


104edo with the flat third is especially notable as an excellent tuning for magic temperament, providing the [[optimal patent val]] for 11-limit magic and the 13-limit magic extension [[necromancy]]. In the 5-limit it tempers out the magic comma, 3125/3072; in the 7-limit, it tempers out [[225/224]], [[245/243]] and [[875/864]]; and in the 11-limit, [[100/99]], [[896/891]], [[385/384]] and [[540/539]]. It provides an excellent tuning also for the rank-3 temperaments pairing 100/99 with 225/224 ([[apollo]] temperament), 245/243 or 875/864, or the rank-4 temperament tempering out 100/99, for which it gives the optimal patent val.
Notably, 104edo inherits [[26edo]]'s accurate representation of the [[2.7.11 subgroup|2.7.11-subgroup]], and thus supports [[orgone]] temperament in that subgroup.


104 with the sharp third is excellent for 11-, 13-, or 17-limit diaschismic. It tempers out 2048/2025 in the 5-limit, [[126/125]] and [[5120/5103]] in the 7-limit, [[176/175]] and 896/891 in the 11-limit, [[196/195]], [[352/351]] and [[364/363]] in the 13-limit and [[136/135]] and [[256/255]] in the 17-limit.
If prime 5 is desired, 104edo has two different equally viable 5-limit [[val]]s, and both are useful. The flat major third val, {{val| 104 165 241 }} ([[patent val]]), tempers out [[3125/3072]], and [[support]]s [[magic]] temperament. The sharp major third val, {{val| 104 165 242 }} (104c val), tempers out [[2048/2025]] and supports [[diaschismic]] temperament.


104 is also notable as a no-fives system; on 2.3.7.11.13, it tempers out 352/351, 364/363, 896/891, [[2197/2187]], [[10648/10647]], 16807/16731, 20449/20412, 21632/21609, and 26411/26364. It is the optimal patent val for the {{nowrap| 17 & 87 }} 2.3.7.11.13 subgroup temperament tempering out 352/351, 364/363 and 2197/2187, which has a 13/9 generator, three of which give a 3.
