What kinda GM was this?

[Hotohori]

1 game day = 1 hour and 15 minutes IRL.
1 full moon cycle = 30 hours


EDIT: sorry was off on the moon cycle hours

I'll try out some numbers with your math estimates I guess. I'm hoping that the date I am assuming the guy is talking about is in-game time as well because real-life has various time zones to think about while the game is the time is the same across the world.

9 full months (Oct-June) = 270 hours
+ 7 remaining days for September = 8 hours~
+ 6 days into July = 7 hours~

Total: 285 hours = 12 days~ from now to be July 6th in-game time

Someone should double check my math though. This is an estimate with a 30 day calendar system which I think the game runs on.

It's not 32 days a month? 8 days in a week?

If that is the case, then it will happen in around 2 and a half weeks real time. As someone stated earlier, I believe. A page back.

Which will make sense because that's when the larger patches have been releasing each month.

There are no days of the week in 14.

[Eldaena]

Rright now it's the 9th month
I believe there are 32 days in an Eorzean month and 8 days in an Eorzean week
it's about 1 hour and 15 minutes in rl = 1 Eorzean day
and 30 hours for a full moon cycle or 1 month
so 32 days would = 30 hours
and if it's the 9th month now out of 12
so that's about 10 Eorzean months from now til the 7th month
10 x 30
300 RL hours estimate
so about 12 1/2 RL days estimated
The hatching tide event suppose to end on may 9th
I think the last patch was on the 25th? So I think that's 15 days between the two. I don't know how accurate any of this math or thinking is. I'm pretty tired. ^^:

I can't find any evidence of a day of the week through the calendar system displayed in-game? How do people know there are 8 days a week?

In the arcanist, thaumaturge's and conjurer's guilds there are a collection of "dusty tomes" that talk about the elements, time and ages. They describe the cycle of ice>water>wind>lightning>fire>earth. This cycle combined with astral and umbral make the set of 8 days in a week. Four sets of this cycle create a month of 32 days.

The months themselves also follow a cycle of astral and umbral elements. The seventh moon is the astral lightning moon, which is represented by Byregot the builder. I'm not sure if this protends to anything.

Thanks for this, learning new things everyday. Well if 32 days in a month quick redo on the math.

Currently 10/31 in the game.

8 full months remaining. 8x32x1.15 hours = 295 hours~
1 day remaining for October. 1x1.15 hours = 1 hours~
6 days into July. 6x1.15 hours = 7 hours~

Total time 303 hours remaining til July 6th in-game or 12-13 real days still.

I seemed to have confused a lot of people saying moons represent months. I wasn't talking about the moon cycle length but rather the actual word. The English version was worded as 6th sun of the 7th moon which is the same format the birthday of your character is expressed as on the Lodestone site which is why I assumed it was a date.

2 and a half weeks doesn't even put you in June.

But yea I'm still wondering if anything is going to happen soon, or do we have to wait for the next patch.

[Laiferr]

Sorry to break the days in a month topic haha but I am SO sad I missed this dude! This is such a cool idea and I love the sense of 'impending doom' XD
