    Well, if the 11 hrs cadence was consistent at 5:00 pm Eastern (9/12) the Vale should have opened, but no Lost Vale to be seen!!!

    for an 11 hours cadence it should have opened today (9/14) at 3:00 pm eastern but Lost Vale is a no show!

    Shouldn’t that be 4:00 pm eastern? (5:00 am - 4:00 pm = 11 hours).

    It is much more easier than this. As armaleon said it spawns on the 2nd, 13th and 24th of New Britannia's month, every day in Britannia is an hour in real life. Don't know if Britannia's months are 30 or 31 days, but you can calculate it the same.

    they're 28. that would mean there's only 6 hours between the one on the 24th and the one on the next 2nd.

    I haven't had any time to look into the Lost Vale pattern, but if it's somehow doing DayOfMonth % 11 instead of DaysSinceEpoch % 11, that would explain why people are still seeing a 28 (the number of days in a NB month) in the pattern. It might also explain the "- 1" in the code, since DayOfMonth would be 1..28 rather than 0..27 or continuous.

    EDIT: FWIW, I sort of like the way it is, because you can know when the next one is without needing to use a program. And now I realize I could have done that with the old schedule, too.

    Confirmed Lost Vale is not on 11 hour schedule. Went in on 9/17 at 8PM CDT. Just opened up on 9/19 at Midnight hence a 28 hour schedule (not 11 hours). Please check and verify.

    So, basically, if my analysis is correct (day-of-month instead of days-since-epoch), it should be the old schedule PLUS 11 hours later PLUS 22 hours later. This at least accomplished the primary goal of having it appear more often.
    Those two were the original schedule times. It should be 11 and 22 hours after those times as well. The easiest way to remember the current schedule is by the day of the month on the time at the top of the screen:
