I know its a 3 day +/- spawn. I have checked a few times this week and it has not been up. Back when I was active before it was on lockdown as someone was selling MQ's, is that still the case?
When were you active? The last time I was in that zone, a couple of weeks ago, he was up. I think since Luclin has come out, he's in much lower demand. And no one came to kill him during my faction session, which lasted a few hours.
He shouts out to the zone when quest is started as well. Could afk a toon in one of those wood goblin buildings on the way to zone out to get timer. They’re safe.
