Being able to set your own reset time would require extra coding and results in the same thing as resetting at midnight ST - you don't need to use up your deposits/instant finishes right when it resets, there's no point in doing that if you know when it's going to reset and you know you can deposit/instant finish before the reset.

a ticker would e the simplest solution, resetting at midnight, why is that so wonderful seeing as you wish to call me out on this? how is it resetting at midnight a great fix for all, I see no benefit in that myself I would much prefer it to reset 24 hours after i have purchased my first instant finish, this way I can track it a lot more easily. Midnight is hopeless for me as I am generally as sleep then as I do have a life outside of Fallensword.
You are fairly new to the forums but I would make a suggestion, do not personally target people in the forums, it can be misconstrued as a personal attack or flame, just a hint for future postings
I'm sorry if you took it that way, but I was only meaning to understand you and hopefully have you understand me. The fact that you were in the minority in your opinion made me seek your opinion - I don't see how that can be considered targeting or a personal attack/flame in any sense.
The point of this idea isn't about being online when it resets, it's about not losing time and keeping the resets on track every day. There would be zero difference for you - you could use the reset at the same day every day if *you* wanted to and it wouldn't change a thing. However, you wouldn't lose instant finishes due to the timer progressing more that day than the previous day.
For example: Monday: Instant finish at 15:31:05 Tuesday: 15:31:40 Wednesday: 15:32:30 <- after following a pattern like this, you'll eventually lose an entire 24 hours meaning you lose an entire day's worth of creating potions. This idea makes it more efficient for you as well as everyone else in the game - and this is a cold hard fact that can't be challenged or disputed due to the nature of my example.
To throw in another example: Say you really like to do your composing potions early on in the day (ST), so you do your potions at 8 ST. Your instant finishes will reset at 00:00 regardless of whether you're there or not and you can do them at 8 ST or whenever you care to. Then, they'll reset again at 00:00. You aren't constrained to the time of day to do your potions, you can do them whenever you feel like it once per day.
This is how it should have been from the start, in my opinion, and over the long haul it's a much simpler system and provides more experience to the players.

#869719 Composing Potion Instant Finish Reset Timer

So, I've been getting into composing a lot (especially after completing the first stash global event) and I always instant finish four 20 XP potions every day just to progress that little bit faster.
The thing is, though, is that the timer for the instant finish keeps getting further and further away from it once was. The timer will and does reset during a potion's creation, and you lose seconds at the very least from having to buy the potions, set up the next one, etc. In my case, I lose minutes and sometimes an hour or more if I don't notice when it last reset essentially losing an entire day eventually once it reaches the point where I can't stay up to instant finish a batch of potions.
So, my idea is such: Have the instant finish timer reset at midnight server time just like the max stamina gold upgrades resulting in a 24 hour reset like it says in the description of the instant finish feature.

#868870 Guild Chat Improvement

I don't know if this has been suggested yet, but my initial thought when seeing the guild chat made me desire the ability to pop out the chat into its own window with nothing but the chat there (Sort of like Twitch's chat).
The way it's set up, you need to have it in a separate tab/window already anyway to keep your attention constantly on the chat while doing your everyday Fallen Sword activities. Being able to pop out the global chat would also be something I would use personally and I think it would result in more people wanting to use these new chat services.
Any opinions on my own? =)
