Given daily reset happens 2AM PST every day, for people who can play during 2AM-5AM, I believe they can harvest another rewards from field boss or chaos gate. It can be a great advatage against people who cannot. I dont think this can be considered fair.

We all know playing during 2AM-5AM is somewhat abnormal. Does Lost Ark NA encourage people to play every midnight? I hope this can get fixed by extending both field boss and chaos gate from 11AM PST to 10AM PST (next day).

Update:
For those who dont believe me, I just collected some evidence there.

We can clear Chaos gate on 3/10 after 11AM, and there is no schedule for 3/11 (other than 2AM-5AM)

Like what I said, after 2AM your entrance time got reset and you can claim it again.

For those people who cannot join in during 2AM-5AM, congradulations to you. You LOST another chance to gain materials. Why? Because you are domestic US West players, a.k.a second-class citizen even somehow those servers are classifed as “US West”

But… you get locked out of rewards. Why does it matter when they enter?

Or is there an exploitable bug where they gain additional access to reward just during that time window?

3

They gain additional access to reward because reward count has been reset at 2AM according to my Asian friends who can play before/after 2AM

Right it resets to the next day and once they enter they use up the new entrance count meaning they wont be able to enter for rest of the new day.

Unless the events that are not supposed to be available for that day pops up on that time window?

What about today. There is no field boss theoretically after 11AM. But they can get its reward before it ends by 5AM.

So basically events that should not be spawning are popping up in that time window, allowing people to claim rewards when they shouldnt be able to?

That is actually a pretty major problem if true. Surprised this has not been brought to attention for the past month.

Correct. It doesn’t show on time window but you can claim rewards. That’s why my friends always missed that opportunity.

I tried to search this issue in forum but didn’t find related topics. Maybe only a few people can play during midnight since it is a really inhuman time…

I feel terrible if this’s true. It‘s like I’ve lost a lot of materials inadvertently. We need an explanation.@Roxx

Got another confirmation from an Asian player that it is possible to gain additional rewards if you participate those events during 2AM-5AM PST.

How long should I wait before getting an answer?

You think amazon wants it’s players to log off? That means they aren’t spending.

They want you to stay up til 2am every night.

We told them about the double gates and world bosses already. They just don’t listen to anything other than money being counted.

Thank you for the information. That’s a really bad news… at least for most NA West players

you dont get a reward for the 2nd time after reset if the new day doesnt have that content.
