As per Kithicor and this post from July 24 (http://www.project1999.org/forums/showpost.php?p=102577&postcount=22), P99's night time runs from 8 PM - 6 AM. I have personally and unexpectedly experienced the twilight MOB switch at eight, rather than nine, and paid for it with EXP loss.

As per this post from August 1 (http://www.project1999.org/forums/showpost.php?p=108311&postcount=46), it is inferred that 9 PM - 7 AM (agreeing with the FAQ (http://www.project1999.org/forums/showthread.php?t=1002)) remains P99's night time.

Which is right?

Guess that's better than running into a slew of undead at 3pm game time, like I just did, lol.

not sure if when night starts (used to thnk it was 6pm but now not sure) but 2 trips in a row the undead cleric at WC zone Poofed from my target as well as sight at 6am. And i immediately started across at that time and saw plenty of newbie mobs.\


EDIT.. i just now ran out into Kith at 7am and was greeted by a zombie commander....at 8am the xombie commander is still up...So im clueless......guess its random

EDIT: 9am and Undead still there

When I camped the Ancient Cyclops I tried the 8PM-6AM cycle without any success for a few hours. Got him to spawn at 9PM though. But then again I talked to someone that got him to spawn at 11AM gametime too so who the Hell knows? :D

I would like an official confirmation as well so I can update the F.A.Q with GM response.

I've gotta camp undead Lord Grimrot, this'd be a big help.

Camping him currently. 4.5 hours of just clearing entire camp out when they spawn, the Live version of Lord Grimrot spawned at 9pm game time.

Update - Killed PH and rest of camp at 5pm game time. Had one more cycle with a PH in it. Cleared again. Live Grimrot spawned after that. Killed him at 10pm. Could have spawned at 9pm again.

Night on this server is from 8pm-8am. When one of the above posters saw undead still up in Kith, it was back when they were remaining up during the day. Im sure there's a thread around here about that.

I've seen "a mummy" spawn as AC's PH at 7am, which by the chart the sony dev posted, should only be able to spawn at night. But honestly, after doing 40 PH kills in the hours of 9-7, I have absolutely no idea if that is night.

As for it being 8-8, I thought an EQ night has always been only 10 hours long, not 12?

I was helping some guildies take a stab at getting tainted morning stars last night in Kith. The undead spawned promptly at 8PM and then, in the middle of a fight, despawned right at 6AM. Take it for what it's worth.

I thought for the longest time it was 9-7. Its what you see everywhere on these boards for the most part. But after watching Pyzjn spawn at 8pm, Varsoon depop at 8am, and AC spawn at 8pm, Im fairly certain that night is from 8-8, a 12 game hour period. I have no idea about kith forest and honestly the two spawn cycles im basing 8-8 off of could just have their windows extended on p99.

Night ends just before 9am. (late 8am is when Varsoon/the place holder will depop)
