Guild Wars 2

I love how dailies are set up now- the ability to select what items you want to do in your daily is a huge boon for the players. But one thing that would also be a huge help: allowing users to select their reset time.

I don’t mean on a daily or even weekly basis. I mean once every 30 days, the player is allowed to say “I want my dailies to reset at 7pm server time” or “I want my dailies to reset at midnight server time”.

For some of us, the current daily reset is a bit.. difficult to deal with. I can play ~2 hours a day on a weekday. Sometimes 3. Its almost always at set time… and reset always lands 1 hour after I log in -_-’. It is inconvenient to say the least. It would be a huge boon to be able to say for my character that reset takes place at a different time. Not everyone would need this, but it could still be useful for some of us!

You know exactly when they reset. If you log in an hour before reset, finish the dailies, reset happens, start on the next dailies. Finish them tomorrow when you log in an hour before reset.

I don’t really see a problem with the daily reset time. If you play for two hours and the reset always occurs in between, that means you have two hours to do your daily in. That’s plenty of time.

I don’t really think that’s possible. The dailies aren’t an individual thing that resets for each person. It’s a server-wide thing where everyone gets the new dailies together. If the dailies didn’t change everyday, it /might/ be possible. Right now though, they would have to keep a whole new entry in the database for each and every player for when they reset and send out information to their client for that.

Honestly, it doesn’t make any sense to do that. Not only that, but it would mess with everyone’s dungeon runs and such. Everyone right now knows when the resets occur and can build a group to try and get the daily in right before a reset.

These topics always make me ask myself some questions: What kind of life are these people leading? Why do they, in their busy lives, cling to completing the dailies so obsessively?

Because the only way I can see people having that little time for the game is if they have a busy social life or if they’re working like 40 hours/week.

But hey, at least you’re not asking for the dailies to roll over. Or asking for them to be rolled into a single weekly.

For me personally, the dailies reset at 3:00 in the morning, so that’s not really a problem.

But yes, as Rhysati said, the dailies are reset and the options for the next day are rolled for all the players. That could cause some issues. Heck, since we have seen that monthlies tend to follow the dailies in the edits we get, you would have to assume that such a fix would be done for the monthly as well. And boy, you could exploit the crap out of that.

There’s no problem doing dailies within an hour..
