Where Winds Meet fixes Version 2.3 issues and explains a Guild War schedule error
October 29 patch notes list gameplay fixes and clarify why Guild War opened early in several regions on October 18. Everstone says affected scores were rolled back and compensation was sent; daylight-saving changes can shift local start times.
Where Winds Meet’s October 29 Version 2.3 notes combine routine fixes with an explanation of a competitive schedule problem from October 18. Everstone says a code-merge conflict caused the in-game time offset system to fail in the Yunya region, covering Europe and the Middle East; Yougu, covering the eastern United States and South America; and Linhe, covering the western United States. Guild War consequently opened ahead of schedule in those regions.
The developer dates the first incident to 03:30 UTC+8 during the day’s first match. A technical fix was ready at 21:00 UTC+8, but deployment waited until ongoing matches in the Canglang region had ended. The deployment completed at 23:55 UTC+8, after which Guild War returned to its normal schedule. Because the early opening prevented some guilds from participating normally, Everstone says it rolled back all Guild War scores accrued during the abnormal period and sent compensation to affected players. Those are the studio’s stated corrective steps; the notice does not describe individual compensation amounts.
The same notice addresses daylight saving time. Server schedules remain fixed rather than adjusting to every country’s local clock change. As some European and American regions moved from daylight saving time to standard time starting October 25, local Guild War start times could shift by an hour. Players should use the in-game event interface to confirm their local schedule rather than assume that a familiar wall-clock time is unchanged.
The October 29 maintenance notes also include practical Version 2.3 changes. The weekly Battle Pass experience cap now resets Mondays at 05:00 UTC+8; the studio says it will grant experience retroactively to all Wanderers. The end time for the Scarlet Whispers Battle Pass was moved from November 14 at 04:59:59 to November 13 at 17:59:59 UTC+8. The patch adds support for purchasing required Qingzhou items at Zhao Laoliu’s General Store and fixes re-claiming certain mail rewards, some Qinghe Homestead quests, several titles, and other listed issues.
These notes are useful both as a maintenance record and as a schedule clarification. The Guild War incident is historical and described as resolved; the weekly reset and local-time guidance affect players going forward. For the exact current event time, consult the client interface, since the official explanation warns that local clock changes do not alter server timing.
