Eorzea Time affects the spawning of Unspoiled Nodes, and in A Realm Reborn-only affects the Sightseeing Log.[1] Timers created from the Gathering Log will automatically set themselves to one bell (hour) before the node spawns, or as described in the table, approximately 3 minutes real time. Eorzea Time can also affect the music and the lighting of the world.
Nighttime occurs from 6PM to 5:59AM ET. There are very few gameplay systems that are tied to daytime vs. nighttime. However, it most prominently appears in The Forbidden Land, Eureka. Some enemies, classified as Ashkin, only spawn during night, which affect the availability spawn certain Notorious Monsters as those enemies need to be defeated. In addition, the some weekly Challenge Logs for Eureka require that a certain number of Ashkin be defeated.
