    I work a job that has had me work from 8:30 to 5:30.

    I made time to log into the game before heading to work when Endwalker first launched so that I could get in some game time in case the queues were not being kind to me - I had been decently affected by the queue drop bugs at the launch of Endwalker. I would get up an hour earlier. If your goal was just to fantasia, you could probably get away with just 15-30 minutes earlier. I'm sure that is entirely possible for you. If your computer takes forever to load up, it won't kill your computer to be on one night overnight.

    I had no queues during that time and would see the portrait of my character.

    ????????? First of all, if you work so much then why are you so hard pressed about 10 tiny dollars. Second, if you're such an upstanding citizen unlike some of the other peasants around here, then why does it kill you to wake up just a smidge earlier? Are you telling me you wake up at 9??? 8??? I wake up at 5 and there is absolutely no queue at 5am. and then I fall asleep by like 10pm but still-the point remains that if you really wanted it and if you were really the early bird non-neet person you're saying you are, then getting up a few hours earlier would be nothing to you. It would be nothing. People get up and do yoga at 5 and 6am before they start their day/go to work and here you are draped over a bannister with your wrist delicately upon your forehead whimpering about "9am!!!!!!!" help us

    I have a 9-5 job, like most normal people, as well. I rise at 6 am and play for 2 hours before heading to work, no problem. I just go to bed at 10 pm at night, like most normal people.

    I have used Fantasias on 3 alts between the hours of 6 am and 9 am with no problems.

    This sounds more like you don't want to be inconvenienced, rather than it's impossible.

    I work 7am to 6pm Monday through Friday. I managed to Fantasia my alt just fine. I’m assuming you don’t work 9 to 5 every day, yes? Perhaps try the weekend? The queues are really low usually around 8am, so it’s not even an ungodly early hour.

    not sure what a NEET is, but I am on Zalera, I log in various times of the day. so, server load? laughable. queue times are pre EW, so, I will call you out on this one.

    you have to be only able to load in during a VERY narrow high load time. and no clue what time that is because max I have seen lately is a queue of 52. because any time through the rest of the day, there is no load.

    in this case, I am calling it a "you" issue... not SE

    NEET is an acronym for "Not in Education, Employment, or Training". In this case, it's used as a disparaging thing, implying that anyone who can play the game in early mornings or late at night is unemployed and doesn't contribute to society.

    you can literally do it before go to work. It's literally a 5 minutes process (assuming you created a preset in benchmark for example)
