NA and EU Times for Behemoth and Odin need to be separated and set for locale time

As a EU Player on EU ODIN and I believe the other EU servers.. having to wait for 4 AM BST for Fate Behemoth every 48 hrs is stupid same with Fate Odin at Midnight 12:15 AM

Currently they are set for NA times they should be separate for EU not the same is this intended or will a fix be incoming?


And to be clear I'm talking about Behemoth and Odin boss. Someone thought I was talking about Behemoth Server that times should change.. No It the boss spawn timer for EU server that are currently set for NA times which is 4AM BST (Behemoth) 12:00 AM (Odin)

Agreed. I hope it will be fixed soon since more and more players are reaching lv50.

Aren't there a counter for respawn after its last death and not based on a fixed spawn time? -_-

Respawn is fixed since you got 20-30mins to kill the boss because its a fate if dont kill it despawns and wait til fate shows up again at same time. Behemoth has appeared twice on EU Odin at 3:30 AM and died once. It goes Behemoth > Odin > Behemoth > Odin

Reckon it's an oversight. Or this was made for the hardcore! Here's your HNM. You should post it in the bugs/feedback section.

No, the times are perfectly fine - if they set it for "local time" what about the people who are on NA/EU datacenters that aren't in NA/EU because they got better performance there than on JP server due to their location? Hole in reasoning right there.

If you're on a server tagged EU then you should expect content to be available at EU hours, not Japan or North American, same as on a JP tagged server you should expect content geared towards your time zone, because, believe or it not, these servers at aimed at people from that time zone, why should an EU tagged server have content for it that is only available when 95% of the EU is asleep?

/edit @ below - Where the servers are located is besides the point, they really should be placed in Iceland like Eve Online. EU players (should) aim for a server tagged EU as they are looking to play with people from the EU who generally have the same playtime as them so they can do content on the server at hours that suit them, rather than hitting an NA server and having to work their schedule around GMT-5.

Having an EU server with content aimed at NA time zones is about as useful as a chocolate fireguard, EU players on EU servers should have content based around EU time zones. If they wanted content based around NA time zones they would go to an NA tagged server. What appears to have happened is the sysadmins have set up each server in Canada identically so the EU servers are set with NA time zones and not EU time zones. Though I really shouldn't have to explain this, it should be self evident.

Thing is, EU tagged servers are still hosted in NA - Even on JP datacenters they spawn in "odd hours".

Why did you include Behemoth in the title of your post?

We mean the FATE BEHEMOTH should have its time set, not the server.

Let me explain it.

On the SERVER 'Odin' the Behemoth fate is at 4:30AM and the Odin fate is at half past midnight.

Cause she's talking about the behemoth fate not the behemoth server.

Either way someone in my free company was fighting Odin at around 3 in the morning on Hyperion so I think more data is needed

Is there not one forum or game you do not troll? From DCUO to FF14 ARR , what Mista E trolled you too much with personal pics? go back to your cave, its a forum you don't like the posts don't read them.

But this isn't true. Odin FATE spawn on the Odin server around 19:15GMT so no idea why you get it's a fixed time.

what time does behemoth spawn for NA servers using PDT time?

Just wait until it appears in your time zone. It will rotate until it will enter yours. The world doesn't revolve around you.

It's not fixed. It's staggered, it appears to be 20-24 hours. Which means slowly it will move around to (and sit in) your time zone for a while.

whine whine whine, people like this destroyed XI.

This didn't happen in FFXI - HNMs had 21-24 hour windows so that the boss would rotate (besides people holding them for hours on end to keep them in their time zone).

while I agree with this thread but I gotta add, the time need to change but it does not need to have seperate time for 2 zone or eventually the date can change so that behemoth & odin will be on saturday where the woker in EU can stay up to do the 2 fate 1/week minimum

and what about linkshells with bots? lol , seems mekia used to be one of those.

So? Is behemoth now fixed Time. Or rotates? 20 hours? 24? 42? 48?

Move to America. Problem solved.

Greetings,

To clarify, Odin and Behemoth do not spawn at specific times. Both FATE events appear at random, so there is a chance that they spawn at any time. With that said, there are times they will appear at a time that is good for one region and times when they will appear at a time that is good for another. Rest assured that these were not set up to favor any specific time zone over another.

I am on Masamune and have not seen Odin or Behemoth since early release Monday.....

I have been on every night....

I am on Masamune too, and iam back to FFXIV for about a week. I have seen Odin on my 2nd or 3rd day back playing again. He just appears at random times on random places. If u desparately want to fight him look for shouts in gridania and the shroud.

The weather in the entire Black Shroud changes when Odin is up. It's just a matter of finding him. (you'll probably see shouts in the zone he's in)

Do you keep your chatacter in Dragon's head? i've seen behemoth once just by fating in dragon head for a few days straight. . Not worth it though, lag fest.. not worth the effort.. especially for vanity items. (i do like the look of Odins sword though!)

Then the respawn time should be something like 36 hours (one day at midnight, next day at noon), but not 48 hours (everytime at midnight).
Every 50 hours works also, so long it is not divisible by 24.

i really hope they will change it to an instanced 8 men fight with a cooldown timer. This spammy crap is flawed and it will not get any better. throw 500 ppl at one boss... great idea...
i really don't get why they made it that way. And... i fought him once... but lol i didnt see him. too many ppl. What an immersion!

To add those monsters into FATE system wasn't the best idea. Save those things for better content than FATE.
