Hiring Housekeeper?

I thought I had read somewhere that the list of available housekeepers to hire reset every hour on the hour. I've been checking and it hasn't been reset in a few days.

so...uh, when do they actually reset?

From what it looks like its 1ce per week. but 20 housemaids per server per week just seems completely wrong.


Also, I'm playing on Osha


thnx

As in allowing you to get more stuff from them or to pick from?

As in I am completely unable to hire a housekeeper (I currently have none, and every time i check the list of housekeepers to hire, all are listed as already hired by another player). I've been checking back every hour or so and the list appears to be identical each time.

uhh...yeah.

When im in my house, in the residence pulldown menu thingy, i go to housekeeper list, then hire, and get the list of housekeepers that are available to purchase.

Every single one of them says "already hired" and has been for the past few days. They havn't been changing (ive noticed cuz there is an incredibly large and ugly one with spiked pink hair.)

From what I've heard, and confirmed by MegaMouse, they are suppost to change hourly. They have not.

The housekeeper availability list doesn't actually reset, or at least it didn't every time when I tried to hire one. The time when new ones show up is right after maintenance.

The good HKs, the ones with 100 max charisma, 100 max in good skills and more trainable personalities, tend not to last long, subject to what other players are hiring and how much they know about HKs. So, make sure to grab them after server reset.

So now theres 1 person saying they reset every hour on the hour, and another saying they only reset at maits.

Am I the only one confused here?
Is this different for every server or something? If so wtf...

I dunno what's going on, but I just returned to the game after about three months, only to find when I went to a hire a new housekeeper that it showed them all as already hired.

Ok I meant that they reset their points enough for you to get some more stuff from them every hour. I may ahve mistaken what the OP meant when I first read it. (Or maybe I got a glitched one that resets every hour not sure). I do know this about my housekeeper though: she is mean as all get out and does't like me much at all.

No. They are supposed to reset every hour. They dont, and haven't in a while. I dont know if it is a bug or intentional change, but it does not matter. That is how it works.

I checked after maintenance Tuesday, and the housekeeper list had indeed reset....so it seems to just not be resetting during the week for some reason.

But don't you love when the forum moderators come into your thread and say absolutely nothing useful, but instead talk to you like you're a retard? "You open the housekeeper window, then select the housekeeper you want and click 'hire'." No, really?

Since I have characters on every server, I logged into one on Osha and took a peek at the housekeeper hiring menu. As of very early this afternoon, it seems that all the housekeepers were available for hire. I'll see about checking every so often to see if they reset properly or not. Even so, this information has been passed along to our staff.
