Thread: Baal Banish Time Change

  1. #1

    Baal Banish Time Change

    Please Tynon,

    Those of us who work find it quite difficult to attend the 3pm Banish event, if not both events.

    Is it possible to dedicate at least one Banish event that we could attend without worrying about office work, or rushing home from the office?

    I propose to move the 3pm Banish Baal event to a more convenient time.

    Herby, on my guild alone in server 7 we have players from Eastern to Pacific time zone (server is Central). We even have one from New Zealand (whatever that timezone is). What we need is another Banish at 8 PM (between GW and the Lady) and have the players only be able to do two out of the three.

    Thank you Matt and Andy.

    I personally would love if there were 3 or 4 Banish events and we get to pick 2 of them maximum to attend to.

    But this doesn't seem to be in the cards as of now, so I came up with this poll to see the general consensus of the forum posters.

    I think they shouldn't change the time of these events because many people chose their time zone according to those event times.

    AGREED.
    I play on three West Coast servers, but live on the East Coast. After playing on different time zones, I selected servers that fit my schedule. In fact, most of my guild mates selected servers to fit their schedules. Switching Baal with Ragnarok would interfere with Championship Warfare for the West Coast.

    Still, it would only create problems for thirty plus servers. A small price to pay to make Herby's life a little more convenient.

    I cannot vote, as none of those options are what I would like to see. I'd like to see the two banishes we have to stay where they are, and two more be added in the evening time. Like others have said, players could choose 2 of 4 banishes to participate in, no more.
    For those people that choose to play on servers on dif time zones, you would not be hurt in this. It waas yoru choice to do so, but most players who chose THEIR own time zone did so because they want the server clock to match their own. The fact is that the two biggest events are smack in the middle of most work hours for most people. I work Evening AND mornings depending on the day of the week. Either way it works out, I miss one banish a day.

    So, my vote is to have 4 banishes a day, but put a cap of no more than 2 per day for players. Start the new banish events at the 10m Bosses, and move them up accordingly in case not many people show up to each one. Leave the old ones as is.

    Its not 3pm in any case, its 2pm. I would love it to be at 3pm but that would mean getting your server time right. The Europe servers have the wrong time on them. This means everything is an hour earlier than you say it is.

    I agree with this fully.

    This depends where in Europe you are.

    Usually times quoted in the forum are server times since the players are in different servers and time zones relative to their server. 3pm is correct.
