Time

Time in Soulframe may be measured in two distinct ways, each of which impacts different Gameplay mechanics:

• The passage of in-game time, which controls the Day-Night Cycle

• The passage of real-world time, which affects mechanics with Real-world Timers such as Crafting and Agari.

As the twin suns,

and

, set - and

awakens - so too does day turn to night.

• Days on Alca last for ~32 Minutes of real-life time.

• Nights on Alca last for ~16 Minutes of real-life time.

Certain mechanics, such as the spawn of the

or Vadagar, depend on waiting until a particular time of day.

The current time of day may be checked by referencing the bottom-left of the World Map. The Envoy will also be notified at specific times of day (every ~16 real-world minutes) with one of the following messages:

   Saphene Glows - Dawn

   Mora Rises - Noon

   Iridis Awakens - Nightfall

Each of these notifications will be presented alongside a Loot Summary which captures everything gained since the previous summary.

Various gameplay mechanics use a set amount of real-world time to determine progress, cooldowns, and respawns. These include:

Crafting
Each piece of equipment will take a set amount of real-world time to craft, and may be rushed by spending Arcs. There is no limit to how many items may be crafting at once, however; so there is no need to rush a craft unless you strongly desire immediate access to the item.

Brewing
Each concoction will take a set amount of real-world time to brew, and may be rushed by spending Arcs. There is no limit to how many items may be brewing at once, however; so there is no need to rush a brew unless you strongly desire immediate access to the item.

Wevetseeds
Fast Travel consumes Wevetseeds. One is consumed upon each Fast Travel, and 1-3 Wevetseeds per 12-hour period can be harvested from the Wise Elm in the Nightfold.
