I set up my guild favoring people with the same time zone as me, because before the feature launched it was suggested that this might be wise. Now we are effectively punished because fights refresh at 1 am when most of us are asleep?
We are a caring community so we manage this issue, but it's still a problem when, for example, we are at 40% on phase 4 at the end of a day. Some people get to do 5 fights the last day, while others get 0. Some guilds have it even worse.
There isn't any need for this arrangement. Please, change the system somehow so people aren't forced to play all night or lose out.
The most sensible arrangement is to simply have rollover be 24 hours after the raid starts. Otherwise, please let the guild leader choose when rollovers occur.
Thank you.
Quit 7/14/16. Best of luck to all of you.

Yes, yes, a thousand times yes! but in this current system I agree with @Queltar. we have some europeans and asians in our group of mostly americans and it is very hard to be equitable and fair to all. this would at least allow us pick some time that worked for most on refreshes.
No please DON'T make raid reset 24 hours after. We start raids a few hours before reset time to get in the dmg which is huge to getting through a tier 6!
Aside: can't you make a new guild and bite the bullet on the 300K? I would if my reset was 1am...
Aside #2: UK guild is so choice for USA timewise
They do need to flatten the slope between #1 and #50. But even if they do, the same basic problem persists. It's not fun to miss out on the end of a raid because you were asleep, and while raids can start at different times the refresh NEVER changes.
As far as aside #1. I like my guild a lot, i'm not going anywhere to hope i find another group of people that fit how i want to play the game.
At some point @LordAlvert Tier 6 will be easy for you just like tier 5 is now. And since they aren't changing how raid rewards are given out, good guilds need stuff like this in place to try and remain together and help remove some of the temptation to compete against each other.
Obviously the real answer is give everyone the same drops for each tier... but i doubt that will happen from the "hey look we fixed it" update last week
Just make it so characters refresh 24hr after the raid BEGINS. This shouldn't be that difficult right?
Even in a guild like mine where people were hand-picked based on their community involvement and personality, this has become an issue, because all players are competitive. In other guilds it is an even more serious problem. There is no flexibility when the reset always happens at the same time, and in the middle of the night for over half the guild.
Thanks.
(This would be less of an issue if the reward structure slope were flatter so the difference between #1 and #11 weren't so large. All of these systems combine to pit guildies against each other and it is causing a lot of damage.)
