| - With Patch 5.1: Landfall we’ve reactivated the Stranglethorn Fishing Extravaganza. To accomplish this we reevaluated the way time-based events work in World of Warcraft. The time zone designation for a realm doesn’t always correlate with its real-world location, and that designation has traditionally directed a player to choose a realm that shares their local time. With cross-realm features like zone coalescing and Raid/Dungeon Finder, linking event reset or lockout times to realm times has caused a lot of confusion, such as zones flipping between day and night upon zoning, and created substantial issues with limited-time events, such as Azeroth’s fishing tournaments.
North American Daily Event Times
In Patch 5.1 we’ve moved most time-based events on North American realms to standardized, region-wide times. Below are the updated event times for all North American realms, regardless of your realm’s local time .
Times displayed in North American Pacific Standard Time
:Sunrise
:5:30 a.m. PST*
:Sunset
:6:30 p.m. PST*
:Daily quests reset
:3:00 a.m. PST
:Profession cooldowns and farm reset
:3:00 a.m. PST
:Dungeon & raid lockouts reset
:Unchanged

:2 p.m. PST every Sunday
:Battleground holidays
:12:00 a.m. every Friday - 12:00 a.m. every Tuesday PST
:Darkmoon Faire begins
:12:00 a.m. PST first Sunday of every month
Oceanic Daily Event Times
Note that, due to the extreme time zone difference, Oceanic realms have a separate standardized time, and Oceanic realms aren’t coalesced with non-Oceanic realms for cross-realm zones. Oceanic realms are, however, still a part of the North American matchmaking pool for Scenarios, Dungeon Finder, Raid Finder, Battlegrounds, and Arenas, in order to ensure that the matchmaking system is able to draw from a healthy population of players at any given hour. Because of this, raid/dungeon lockouts will continue to reset at the same time for North American and Oceanic realms .
