There are many events that require that you wait until JP midnight. Too many to name them all.
I, being me, can never remember exactly when JP midnight is. I'm EDT, and I'm pretty sure it's either 10 am or 11 am, but I can never remember.
My newest quality of life suggestion is to add something somewhere, either in the Conquest map, or when you hit /clock. We already have a feature on the Conquest map to tell us how long until JP midnight on Sunday.
Also, does anyone know when JP midnight is? Cause I'm waiting for something. >_>

I hate quests and missions that require you to wait until the day-change (earth-time), with a passion.
There could easily be something to point this out in-game, though, yeah.
Whenever I needed to confirm anything dealing with time-zones, though, timeanddate.com has been a good friend.

Part of the confusion I believe your having is that Japan does not use Daylight Savings Time ... so, when the east coast is on EDT (Eastern Daylight Time) like right now, midnight in Japan is 11am EDT. When we go off Daylight Savings Time in the fall and are therefor running on EST (Eastern Standard Time) midnight in Japan is 10am EST.

Set your clock to keep multiple times on your computer.
I have 3 settings, Home (CST), Japan (JST), UK (GMT) which helps out a lot more than just this game in my line of work.

I did not even realize I could set multiple clocks. I'm looking at the list I can choose, and just to make sure, do I want to use UTC+09:00?

Yes, that'll be Tokyo time.

Opposite.
7 AM PST, 8 AM PDT.
10 AM EST, 11 AM EDT.

It is Japanese midnight anytime the number of days left until the conquest tally is a multiple of 25.

Lower right-hand corner of your PC there is a clock.
Click it and go to "Change date & time settings..."
Go to the "Additional Clocks" tab
Click the checkbox to add an additional clock
From the drop down menu choose "(UTC+09:00) Osaka, Sapporo, Tokyo"
Finally give the clock a name and then hit ok.
Now when you click the bottom right clock on your computer it will display Japan on there for you (inBefore you play on lolConsole?).

Safe to say that 100% of the users on this forum uses a computer in some fashion (including smart phones).

Don't underestimate those console users! They're sneaky.

I did manage to find this earlier in the thread, but thank you for posting full directions on it. =) I can use that when I get home tonight to set both of my computers.
And I play with a PC in front of me, a laptop on my left and an Xbox 360 to my right. =P The laptop is for looking up info, the other two are for gaming.
