City and LOTD start times

Recently city and lotd have been moved to always trigger at one time in the EU timezone (9pm server time). Unfortunately its a time that I cannont make meaning now that 3 nights a week when I log in there is an event underway - this pretty much means there's no point in playing until the event is over.

Prior to this they were on a rota and changed a bit each week. There was a early EU and late EU and lotd was on a more random timer.

Any chance we can go back? At least we could make some of the events whereas now its 0.

It's not just the times but the days also. I work weekends and can't attend LOTD because of that. It'd be nice if we could have LOTD be on a weekly schedule so that it rotates through different times / days.

The population has dropped more so devs put these events at most population dense server times. Frankly city siege with 1-2 instances doesnt feel right

Yesterday was 4 city instances only, so the time does not appear to be an improvement

There were over 250 people in the lakes when city started, don't think it's a time issue.

Not long ago when i started to play RoR i checked total population and it was 130-140 something.. Normally its 250 at that time which is low already but about 100 drop was def not expected and i just didnt log in at all.

I do still have hope that Cities/Lotd are not timed events, espesially City. I actually dont remember how lotd access worked live but i still always had access (played both sides,sometimes same server sometimes NA) to a character either being parked in Lotd or i could just fly there whenever i wanted.

When Tovl and Tombs are released, if they are like live and can be invaded/defended then im very satisfied. I think they will be changed in some way because whole lotd was changed so much that i still havent done it more than 1 time even though i really want the magic power ring cloak combo espesially. Goddamn 225-250 armour bonuses on low armour dps char...

Anyway Both Cities and lotd should NOT be only weekends/scheduled. Goldbags and Purplebags need to have Gearset pieces boe, and unique proc wpns/cloak/belts/jewely/trophy/event slot that are bop mostly, some boe but actual Wpn with proc would not be boe. Gated content is good thing sometimes.

The new schedule time is very very very bad for the Spanish people. 20:00 is ok, 22:00 is perfect, but 21:00 is horrible for us.
