Wrong Raid time for Official Server!
Official Server [US-E] #5120 has weekend raid times from 23:00-01:00 EST instead of from 20:00-22:00. This should be corrected as people choose servers based in their region in large part so things happen relative to their region time. Thank you.

Report: The raiding window on the server [US-E] Official #5120 is 11 pm - 1 am eastern time on weekends. I would expect it to be 8 - 10 eastern, but seems like it's 8 - 10 pacific.
Also, I remember being able to see the raiding window of a server in the server browser in a prior version of the game, but I can't find it now. Not sure if that was intentionally removed or a bug but it was definitely helpful when it was in the game.

beerock MergedAs the subject states, I'm playing on a [US-E] Official #5120 server. I can confirm last night (Saturday) the server system notified us at 11:00 PM EDT that the raid window had opened when the expected time should be 8:00 PM EDT to match East Coast time. Many of us joined this server because we are on the East Coast. Please fix

DrelekJust a note, this is a problem regardless of the current bug regarding raid times being an hour late - the server should be UTC - 5, but it's currently UTC - 8.

JasonI've dumped two weeks in this server and the raid times have been totally messed up. It's supposed to be a US east server and the raid times have been 11pm to 1Am one week and 12am-2am this week. The server is set to the wrong time zone and really needs to be fixed. C'mon guys private servers can get this right I'm sure you can too...

Jason MergedThe raid times are messed up. 11pm-1am one week and 12am-2am this week (local time) No one is staying up to 2am for raiding and defending and it is going to completely ruin this server if it hasn't already. Really dropping the ball here.

O'charrayI actually like that the raid timers are always different, it really adds a new element to raiding in this game. I think raid times should always be randomized to keep people on their toes and teaches people to seize the moment when they can.

BrandonHow is an EST Server have Raid Times of 2300 Hours to 100 Hours. Last week it was an hour earlier... 10 PM til Midnight. You really expect us to play from 11 PM til 1 AM. when the server states a COMPELTELY DIFFERENT RAID TIME... This isn't acceptable!

beerockIt looks like they corrected the raid times to the expected East coast raid times after viewing the server details (now that we can see them with today's patch). Thanks, devs!

DrelekThe issue is not fixed, server is still configured in pacific time. In fact I think there's an issue with the new raid time display - EVERY official server, when adjusted for time zone, shows that the raids are at the same time.
Here are the settings I see for official servers:
US-E: UTC - 4, 21:00 - 23:00
US-C: UTC - 5, 20:00 - 22:00
US-W: UTC - 7, 18:00 - 20:00 <- this is what I see for 5120, it's still matching US-W instead of US-E.
I have no idea what's happening here. Only thing I can think of is that the times are being localized backwards to always show 8 - 10 pm local time? I'm in central time, for reference. At any rate, when I check a castle heart in-game it still says to come back on weekends from 20:00 - 22:00 and the server timezone is still listed as UTC - 7 instead of UTC - 4, so I would expect that the raid times have not changed.
As a programmer myself I can sympathize, time localization sucks 💀 -

REPORT:
The time restricted raid window display from the May 29 hotfix does not localize time correctly if you're viewing settings for a server outside your time zone.
I am in central time, and US-C official weekend raid servers show the raiding window as 20:00 - 22:00 as expected. However, when I view a US-E server, the raiding window shows as 21:00 - 23:00.
If this time were localized to my time zone, I would expect it to show 19:00 - 21:00, and if it were localized to the server time zone I would expect it to show 20:00 - 22:00.
Similarly, US-W official servers show 18:00 - 20:00.
Tried verifying game files, same result.

O'charrayI still think the random raid times is the way to go, Why should we have consistency and cater to people who have jobs? Dont they have better things to do than play video games and raid on v rising? i think its really unique and really sets the server apart from every where else
