    First time i've seen a change in event start/end times since I started playing:

    I expected the end times to shift an hour later, but it seems like they shifted an hour earlier instead. Oh well, that works too.

    Did anyone have issues with things?  Did it go smoothly this time around?

    I assume the boss battle smoothed things over a bit. The main problems seem to have been for people grinding PvE when the Clocks reset.

    Haven't Heard any horror stories this time around though.

    Yep the boss battle helped, and the more serious issues seem to happen in the fall when the clocks get set back an hour.  Skipping an hour breaks far less than having the same hour twice.

    Will be interesting when clocks change here in about 2 weeks time.

    It doesn't effect the in-game clock - when the US goes to and from DST there is one event that doesn't start exactly when another begins, instead beginning an hour earlier or later. That won't happen when the EU starts DST, the only thing that happens is that we reset our clocks and keep playing the game...

    Maybe they can plan another Boos fight for the fall DST.

    I think having a "non-grindy" event just ending around DST was a great idea - assuming it was deliberately planned that way. :)
