Guild quest timer counts to local time 2:00

[Durin_d]

The time counter in the guild quest shows time left until 2:00 in the players local time and not the actual time left for the quest.

An issue with the guild quest timer was reported on test server also

I belong to an international guild with players from all over the world.
As it stands with the timers on the guild quest - i have 50 min to complete mine and the European and British players have 10-11 hours to complete.
I am hoping the timer is bugged and not set for a "local" time. I don't play normal Australian hours.
Playing as I do now I will have a hard time completing adventure tasks in the given time.
Please address this BB

On the test server the timer wasn't actually connected to the quest resets, which reset at their usual time for everyone. AU and NZ should see their timers here reset soon so that should add a little clarity on just how it's working now that's it's live.

is it possible that resets are connected somehow to Guild leader's local time ?
can someone check that possibility ?

It's not the guild leader - I'm QV's guild leader and I'm in UK. I have 10+ hours to complete mine still

I have checked in my guild, all timers are counting down to 02:00 local time, so some guildies have 11hrs to complete, other 12hrs and others 4hrs all at the same point of time.
As far as I am aware, the reset time for guild quests is at 02:00 GMT, and all in the guild will get their new next gq at that time, so as it stands unless you are in the UK, the timers are useless.

another bug reported on test server goes live - who'd have though eh?

[queen-vicious]

all sorted, at 0 timer reset as Iolanthe predicted :)

24 hour count down Kit

so your timer does the 24hr countdown to when it is 2am your time but does not tell you when the GQ will reset, which is the whole point.

Could we please get some clarification from BB on what the official GQ reset time is, and why the timers do not show the correct countdown to that time. Quite obviously the whole guild will receive their new guild quest at the same time, but having a full range of times showing on the timers does not help co-ordinate a very international guild to all be able to do their guild quest together.

I reported the issue yesterday and it's being investigated. As soon as we have more details, we will let you know.
