So, I agree with Arynduil Greyleaf that one way to trigger Maldyn's spawn is to kill Hasten. Maldyn was not attacked by any HGs or Cyclops and a nice level 41 monk in my group took Maldyn out (I helped a little).

I killed it and headed back to group hunting HG's.Ī few minutes later, Maldyn the unkempt spawned just where everyone else sees him spawn, on the hill near the guard tower. After the first 'a drake' was gone, a second 'a drake' spawned near the Lizard Man camp numbered 22 in the Eqatlas map. A few minutes after Hasten was killed, 'a drake' spawned in the Zazamoukh Sphinx area. That triggered the following spawn cycle. Apparently someone much higher level than I killed Hasten. Shortly thereafter, I read an /ooc message about Hasten being one tough little gnome. Someone asked why and I explained that I needed Bloodstrutter to despawn to trigger a cycle of spawns for a quest item. So, in an /ooc message I expressed a wish that Hasten would despawn. Based upon previous experience, I knew that it would take seemingly forever for the spawn cycle to run its course. Here's how it worked for me.įirst, I was in a group killing HG's. In reading these posts and trying to follow the spawn cycle for Maldyn, I finally got my Broken Bow Part A. Don't bother - you get faction hits (-unkempt druids, -qrg protected animals, +jaggedpine treefolk) but Hasten does not despawn. This was mentioned in another post under the Ivy Gauntlets quest. I have no idea what the faction implications of this would be.īy the way, I tried killing Albain Tinderbrand, the little druid up at the Unkempt ring, to get Hasten to despawn. Hasten is lvl40 (everytime) so I suppose he could be killed by a standard HG group fairly easily. Once Hasten/Brother Z pop, you're pretty much out of luck for the evening, which is what makes this camp so frustrating. I have yet to see this guy, and I have been looking for a total of probably 4 r/l hours of PH kiling. The order appears to be as above, with the drake being the generic PH. Maldyn the Unkempt is by far the rarest spawn on the 'a drake | Hasten Bootstrutter | Brother Zephyl | Maldyn the Unkempt' cycle.
