New Weekly Reset

[Alistaire]

Oops. Them... Is there any weekly reset on monday? I mean, just move all the resets from monday to tuesday doesn't seems like something that will make it less stressfull to the servers :P

Yeah, it's just SE completely misunderstanding why a lot of people only play on Monday.

Greetings,

I just wanted to stop in and give some additional information, since there have been questions popping up about this. While the weekly reset time for content will change, the reset time for Duty Roulette and other daily content will not change from the current time.

Well at least you're being consistent about not bothering to have any consistency at all.

I think they understand it quite well. People would log in on mondays to blow through coil, cap myth and clear EM's. Now people will start Coil 2 and tome capping on tuesdays, but at different times. Hopefully it will be less laggy.

No more 90000k?

"In order to alleviate server load during the weekly reset for item acquisition and player progress, the reset time for the following items and duties has been changed to Tuesday at 1:00 a.m. (PDT)"
Allagan tomestones of soldiery
The Second Coil of Bahamut
The quest "Primal Focus"
PvP Weekly Performance

From the 2.2 Patch Notes

So we have:
All Daily resets at 10am EST
All Weekly resets at 7am EST (Tuesday)

I have no problem with this. I just hope it doesn't get out of hand and have 3-5 different reset times for different content. What silly server infrastructure. (^_^ ;; )

All Daily resets at 11am EST
All Weekly resets at 4am EST (Tuesday)

It's not about the day, it's about the time. If they put it in the middle of the night, they hope for less people to come on at the same time.

Yeah but if thats the case couldn't they just move it back a few hours from 10AM Monday to 2AM Monday? Instead of changing the day and messing with everyone's schedules.

Most people will just log on Tuesday night and it will be just as busy as Monday. Well I suppose if your not like me, stuck on Monday with no other recourse, screwed if someone can't make it because its the last day of the reset.

Oh well.

Europe people have some time difference with you.

With a Monday reset, considering work times and all, EVERYONE stacked at the same time. With a reset after the weekend like that, the EU players should be done first (unless you like running your coil at noon-3 pm your time).

I personally am not happy with the new reset times.. turns my monday off from a fun day filled with new beginnings..(Coil 1-5, EX Primals, Etc) to a monday off where no one will be doing anything and waiting to try to finish something will take hours because everyone will be done... ugh.. so garbage

[Seif]

Forgive me if this is a dumb questions but why do we need these caps to begin with in a sub based game?

I get that all the free to play games use these waiting-things to monetize normal progress but why does ARR have them?
Sorry if this is obvious to everyone but me =(
