STFC Griffin Calamity November 2026: dates and times

The STFC Griffin Calamity November 2026 window runs Nov. 7–8 for US servers, from 1 p.m. PST (4 p.m. EST) on both dates, according to Scopely’s Oct. 30 announcement.

Checked Nov. 4, 2026: the event announcement, Scopely’s Incursions help page and the Update 95.1 notes. These are publisher sources, not independent confirmation from a live event.

The short version

• Match your plans to your server region, rather than a friend’s local clock.
• Coordinate station protection and participation before the invasion window.
• Check the event notice again before committing resources; older general guidance differs on duration.

When is Griffin Calamity available in your region?

Scopely’s Griffin Calamity announcement gives each region a 24-hour window. The US schedule is later than the APAC and European schedules.

For US servers, both dates fall after the switch to standard time. That makes 21:00 UTC 1 p.m. Pacific and 4 p.m. Eastern, not the daylight-time equivalents. The region label identifies the server schedule; living in the US does not make every server use that window.

There is a source discrepancy worth flagging. Scopely’s general Incursions help page describes a 12-hour event, while this dated announcement supplies a full day between its start and end. We use the specific November schedule here. Confirm the in-game event timer before relying on either description.

How do the event rules affect participation?

Scopely’s Infinite Incursions help page describes participation from level 25 and an invasion cost of 10 Incursion Conduits. Those are general rules, rather than a separately tested November walkthrough.

The same page says peace shields are suppressed in level-20-and-higher systems during Incursions, while their remaining time continues to count down. In level-19-and-lower systems, the usual shielding rules apply. Moving between those areas changes which protection rules apply.

That distinction deserves an alliance message before the event, especially for members who plan to stay home. An invasion schedule and a protection plan answer different questions; agreeing on one does not settle the other.

Scopely’s Update 95.1 notes previously reported a fix for players becoming stuck during seamless Incursions transfers. That September statement is historical context, not proof that November’s run will be free of transfer problems.

What should alliances check before the event?

Check the server pairing and bye list in the announcement before assuming your alliance has an opponent. Scopely says bye servers receive bonus Unaffected Tokens. Victorious servers receive the special title “The Unaffected,” alongside the announced reward system.

For the broader account and alliance context, use the Star Trek Fleet Command account overview. Our documentary review of STFC’s longer commitment addresses a different question from this weekend’s calendar.

Maya’s take: Choose your participation window before chasing the reward list. A short alliance notice with the right region, station plan and responsibilities is more useful than discovering a scheduling mismatch after the event starts.

The specific event notice is the calendar to recheck before Nov. 7.
