So, lets say you kill an NM that's 21-24 hour window. It dies at lets say...8PM. When the next day comes in real life the clock goes back an hour. Would the window start at 5PM still? lol

Or does the window now open at 4PM, an hour earlier...or 6PM an hour later lol.

I was thinking for some reason it would be an hour later...but now that I think about it more...If it died at 8PM, and the clock went back an hour then that would be like it died at 7PM, which would make the window open at 4PM?

It's all based on the JP time, since that didn't change the window would start at what would have been 5pm which would be 4pm

Naw, was there an hour so that would have been the full 3hr5min window. King Arthro, he's never nice enough to wait or pop for me. Lots of times I was there alone and it would NEVER pop on first window, then someone would show up. But the ONE time in the last 4 weeks I showed up 5 minutes late, guess what...pop first window lol.

Even if they didn't it has nothing to do with JP time. It just has to do with actual hours.

21 hours, regardless of the time anywhere 21 hours as in actual time passed, not what the clock says.

Let's say you count to 21, but when you get to 20, the time goes back to 19. When you go to 20, it's still be 21 hours of time passed.

Edit2: At first I calculated it as if it went forward an hour for some reason even though I know it went back.
