AION 2 reset and Rift times in GMT / BST
For players in United Kingdom, Ireland, Portugal. GMT / BST is 9 hours behind the server clock, and the server clock does not move for daylight saving — so the times below are listed in both standard and daylight time.
The schedule in GMT / BST
| Event | Standard time | Daylight time |
|---|---|---|
| Daily reset | 07:00 | 08:00 |
| Weekly reset (Wednesday) | 07:00 | 08:00 |
| Spacetime Rift gate (every 3 h) | 17:00 (Tue), 20:00 (Tue), 23:00 (Tue), 02:00, 05:00, 08:00, 11:00, 14:00 | 18:00 (Mon), 21:00 (Mon), 00:00, 03:00, 06:00, 09:00, 12:00, 15:00 |
| Rift Contest (Mon, Thu, Fri) | 11:05, 14:05 | 12:05, 15:05 |
GMT / BST observes daylight saving, which is why the two columns differ by an hour. Times are wall clock in GMT / BST. A day in brackets means the event lands on a different day locally than on the server clock.
GMT / BST: common questions
It lands at 07:00 in GMT / BST during standard time, and 08:00 during daylight saving time. GMT / BST is 9 hours behind the server clock, and the server clock does not change for DST — your local clock does.
Weekly content resets on the same tick as the daily reset, so 07:00 on Wednesday in GMT / BST during standard time, and 08:00 during daylight saving time.
The gate opens every 3 hours for 15 minutes. In GMT / BST that is 17:00 (Tue), 20:00 (Tue), 23:00 (Tue), 02:00, 05:00, 08:00, 11:00, 14:00 in standard time and 18:00 (Mon), 21:00 (Mon), 00:00, 03:00, 06:00, 09:00, 12:00, 15:00 in daylight time. The 02:00, 05:00 and 11:00 server gates are the ones the official guidebook names explicitly.
Monday, Thursday and Friday, starting 5 minutes into the gate and running 25 minutes: 11:05, 14:05 in standard time and 12:05, 15:05 in daylight time.
