It appears that the "true" dungeon timer will only be valid for the Pacific timezone (GMT -8) and each timezone ahead (to the East) will see an extra "fictional" hour added to their timer. In my case for example, this means that my ind timers always display 24h 00m remaining when I come out of a 20-hour cooldown dungeon - it basically "adds" 4 hours to the regular timer because I am located in the Atlantic (GMT -4) timezone, which is 4 hours ahead of GMT -8.
However, these extra hours are "fictional" in the sense that you can re-enter the dungeon after the true cooldown (20 hours for most ind dungeons). If I do a Honey Jar at 6pm, the next day I can still do my Honey Jar at 2pm despite the fact that there is still a cooldown of 4 hours showing on my dungeon timer. With the Hidden Repositorium event currently active, this chart can come in handy if your dungeon timer is displaying more hours than it should before you can re-enter.
The following chart shows how many hours are added to your true dungeon timer (time after which you can re-enter):
If you are in: | GMT | Fictional hours | Subtract this many hours from your displayed timer |
---|---|---|---|
Pacific time | GMT -8 | 0 | 0 hour |
Mountain time | GMT -7 | 1 | -1 hour |
Central time | GMT -6 | 2 | -2 hours |
Eastern time | GMT -5 | 3 | -3 hours |
Atlantic time | GMT -4 | 4 | -4 hours |
*NOTE: Chart was created for North America, as I have not tested it elsewhere. It seems to be true for Europe also, since my guildy from France has even more hours added to her timer than I do.
The alternative is to change your computer's internal clock to the Pacific timezone, which I personnally find inconvenient.
