What is your suggestion?: Could we please make the server events (boosts in particulair) earlier for EU players... It's always so late for us, also depending on the events before the boosts. It usually starts 23:00/00:00 my time and thats not really an enjoyable time for EU players.

Is this in OSRS?: -

Has this suggestion been accepted already?: -

How would this benefit Alora?: It mostly benefits EU players and i think some really do appreciate it

+1.

 

Couldn't agree more. Every boost is an absurd time for us especially considering events start later than the initially suggested time 90% of occasions and with raids purple rates being so god awful it feels like you are somewhat forced into playing at these unsociable hours to even have the remotest chance at uniques.

I don't know what the fix is, But because of my job I cant play during a boost unless I make it apart of my weekend plans. 

I support moving times around for sure.

I agree. Like Dozer, not sure how this could work but we definitely have a lot of EU players so I support.

The solution is to have the event days kept as is. Using COX as an example, have the event start at 12.01AM Saturday morning server time, and finish at 11.59PM the same day.
Anytime during that 24 hour period, players can log in and activate a 3hr COX bonus. Once the bonus is activated it runs down to 0, regardless of the player being logged in or not.

Doing it this way would encourage players to still log on during these event days, but not be afraid of missing out due to having to meet the set server times.

For me, most events are around 3-5am Sunday / Monday mornings, and while I love Alora, I dont love it that much.
Having it be personalised to when each player is avalibale to play, within the restraints of still needing to play the specific day, IMO is the best solution.

If this is even possible however, is a whole other question.

I do believe this suggestion has been given before and there was no way for them to make a boost activation button for each person.

I do support this, 8 PM server time is also 11 pm for me, if it can be 2-3 hours earlier that would be way better for us :P

or even add the boosts before the looong events may help abit.

although i understand most players wont be doing the events as they're pretty useless compared to boosts

Even if it rotated round so one weekend/weekday set is catered for evening in US timezones, the next weekend/weekday is then UK/EUevening, then the following Aus and so on and so forth. Anything is better than the current system where one timezone feasts and the others suffer.
