Some days ago I quickly went into the game. After half an hour I found myself with everything completed except 2 events. I scoured Orr and Queensdale, couldn’t find a single event. I went to WvW and quickly killed a Dolyak but apart from that …. nothing.
Twenty minutes later I really got to go, I was already late but this one event was eluding me. It really got to my nerves. Pulled myself together, silently scolded at the RNG gods and shut down my pc. The day after, all was gone. I had 5 minutes, enough to get that karma, 5 silver etc but no… it disappeared into the mists.

Please, for all that’s good and honest… only reset daily achievements once they’re completed.

I agree with this partially.

It really should only reset when completed, BUT it should count for the day it was completed on.

Using the OP case for an example , if he passed the reset time even by 5 mins doing the last event. It should count for the day that just started , not allow people to make their dailies late and still get the new day one.

Totally agree.

Then could you even call them Dailies if it took you more than a day to do it….?

Not saying I’m against the idea, I missed my last daily by 2 Events. Lost track of time and next thing I know I’m back to square one.

Just think the idea of a Daily is that you have a 24hr window to get it done, if you do not, it starts over.

I won’t stop because I can’t stop.

I would like to just be able to adjust the reset time. I find myself getting reset often because of when I play. Seriously, is 4 p.m. (6pm for me) the best time you could think of? Why not early a.m. or even late a.m. for that matter? I often play then next day and have to wait for reset as well. Maybe find a way to let the user select a semi-permanent reset time and only allow them to change it for cost or on a time based schedule. Or at least a time that would make a little more sense. All I know is it is becoming really really irritating.
Thanks for your time.

That time is midnight UTC; Americans aren’t the only players, after all.

Using the system’s clock would simply allow gamers would reset their clocks.

So, I think that when you join a world/server, you also choose a time zone. Then YOUR daily-clock would reset at midnight.

By the way, this would also be a security booster, because most players play pretty much the same hours every day (except holidays and weekends). If they saw a guy who routinely logs on at 6 PM every day suddenly logging on at 5 AM, this would be a red flag.
