NEW EDIT: Sorry guys, we messed up - the original messaging was actually correct. The raid resets are a complicated system and we did not understand all the details fully. We apologize for the confusion and inconvenience. Please disregard the strike-through text below. The messaging in red is correct.
 
Now that we’re doing weekly game maintenance on Wednesdays instead of Tuesdays, we’ll be changing raid reset times to coincide with this as well. The first change in raid reset times will begin on December 16, but depending on when you save to a Raid ID the week before there can be multiple raid resets instead of the normal one (1).
 
On Tuesday, December 8 at 2am PST, raids, Elder Gem, and OmniBit caps will reset as usual.
 
1.       If you save to a raid on Tuesday, December 8 before the update you’ll have a reset one week later on December 15, and then again on December 16 to align with the new Wednesday reset time.
2.       If you save to a raid after the game update on December 9, you will only see a reset on December 16.
 
Going forward, all resets will take place on Wednesdays at 2am PST.
 
Our hope is that combining this with the downtime creates a better gaming experience.
 
Thanks,
-Team WildStar

Finally gave up on writing the correct time conversion for us EU players?
If so, wouldn't be wiser to use the Coordinated Universal Time, and we all regulate according to the standard?

			You could just add a link like this one, that can convert to people's local timezone.

Instead of messing with the player's raid schedules, did you, and stay with me for a moment, did you ever consider...doing the maintenance on Tuesdays again?
 
How does it affect Carbine at all to do them instead on Tuesday?

			Oh, I see.  So it's an NCSoft problem and not a Carbine one.  Makes sense, I guess.	
----
			That sucks	
----
			The new update is disappointing. You should have just given us the extra reset.	
----
			yeah, why can't we just have the extra reset?	
----
			You guys are trying too hard, leave it as it is.

			its 1 more day for progression guilds to kill ohmna/avatus/augmentors hm

			Was announced a while ago, but somehow I'm still not happy about the Wednesday reset. Creates nothing but problems for our raid schedule.	
----
			
This frustrates me to no end, and seems extreme that you would impact an entire raid community instead of just having maintenance on Tuesday.
 
Here's the deal, we raid 2 days a week, and everyone have planned their IRL schedules around this.
 
We raid Tuesday+Thursday, so we can have progress fairly close to each other, 1 day apart. 
 
With your change, you're making progress take place almost as far between each other as possible.
 
Please consider having maintenance on Tuesday as always, you're screwing over the community with this.

			I have to agree, you're screwing your entire raid community who has had the SAME SCHEDULE for over a year. Maybe it won't matter for the *sarcasm* slew of new guilds *end sarcasm*, but about those of us who have been here from the start. We chose our days for a purpose, and now we have to try to rework our entire lives because you guys can't figure this out? Or suffer from MASSIVE breaks in our schedule to walk into a raid COLD for PROGRESSION? Are you serious? Tuesdays are warm-up, Wed/Thurs Settle-in/progression. Now it's what...cold-progression (b/c that's going to work SO well), with clear normal content wed/thurs?

We raid 3 days a week, 3 hours a day, Mon/Tues/Wed - have always walked in cold on Mondays, and are 9/9.  Relax.
----
			I don't understand why everyone gets another day of progression in a week. Instead of rewarding your raiders with a chance at getting some loot that seems earned if you can clear in a session. But I guess more people are in progression so keep rewarding them, not like ppl are waiting on new RAID CONTENT trying for Artifacts. And I love having the weekend to break up our two progression nights to reine my build and strategy. What changed this change?	
----
			
Ermagerd, I'm only an adult, how do you expect me to adjust to raid reset being one day later than usual!
 
Entire guilds and physical cities will surely crumble with this change!	
----
			
im also not a fan of this
 
u could just leave it the way it is now, have reset on tuesday, do patching on wednesday, think this shouldnt be a problem, is it?
 
also with this change shortly before christmas, u are ruining the avatus holiday kill for many guilds, just giving them 1 day (as most guilds will be pausing at least 1, most probably 2 ids, starting on 24.)
 
why not just do it when "raiding season" is starting again in the new year? if it even has to be done at all ...

			As far as I'm aware this concerns more than just Wildstar...it was decided because it was what was best for all the NC Soft games, no? How about we just adjust and plan around the change...You'd think they cancelled redmoon with the amount of tears in this topic.	
----
			
This is likely a dictate from higher up, you silly people.
Yell at NcKorea rather than Carbine.  Carbine is merely the messenger for the information.	
----
			You people could just have the first raid at thursday > sunday > tuesday. No need to change days.....	
----
			I fail to see how the new reset day is going to be an issue. Everything shifts a single day. Prog starts a day later, ends a day later. None of ur raid times are affected. 	
----
			
Hi all,
 
Apologies for the confusion. We've updated how raid resets work in the original post. Please take a look so that you understand what has changed.
 
Thank you,

			Am I reading this correctly?  People that raided last night will reset on the 15th and again on the 16th, while people that did not will only reset on the 16th?  I feel like this has the potential to make all sorts of awkward situations, if we bring in some people to raid on Thursday/Monday that missed the raid Tuesday.  Or is it actually based on raid id, so that raid ids created last night reset Tuesday and everyone resets again on Wednesday?

You originally stated that you were going to reset twice, so my entire guild is ready to raid on Tuesday, then change your mind ON Sunday, so we cancel our Tuesday raid, THEN tell us on wednesday it was back to the original way stated?
 
A little salty about the bad communication here

			If you use /raidinfo it will tell you when your raid ID resets. Raid IDs are separate from players. If your raid's ID was created on 12/8, then the ID will reset on 12/15. This will be true for everyone you lock to that ID regardless of when the player gets added to the list. Once the ID resets, everyone is freed from the lock.	
----
			So, we went from having this weird schedule, to an 8 day raid week, to this crap again. And I'd have not even known if someone didn't tell me it changed yet again. Please, inform us via the same spam you announce everything else in game so that people may be aware of this during peak raid hours. 	
----
			
Again, we're very sorry for the confusion. We messed up with confirming how it worked and apologize profusely for any inconvenience the messaging/messaging changes/raid reset changes themselves may have caused. 
 
Thank you,

			How are elemental pairs going to re-randomize? Is the one-day lockout group going to see this week's pairs, next weeks pairs or a special one-day set of pairs?	
----
			
Hi all,
 
To help clarify, the Raid ID is distinct from the players'. In this case, each of the new players brought in would all be locked to that Raid ID. When it resets, all of their lockouts would be reset as well. Hope that helps!
 
Thank you,

			well it didn't reset, and our lockout is from tuesday last week starting right after reset.

Last evening we had raid and we were surprised that we had Raid ID reset as usual, cause accordin to news it should happen 16/12, so, please, explain for dummies:
 
Will Cap and Raid ID resets be on Tue or Wed from now on?
