This will be one of the easiest quest you will complete in WOW... accept the quest... then... cash it in for a quick 11000exp as simple as that.

Commento di 15938

I can't find this npc anywhere around Nessingwary's camp. Does she patrol around somewhere?

Commento di Sihmm

Saving Kristen DeMeza from Ganky Rottenfist (http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=18297) causes her to offer this quest. Anyone can take and complete it until she despawns, whether or not they really *did* save her. Unfortunately, I've no idea what causes her to come running into the camp asking for help, yet!

The real Kristen DeMeza is an Assistant Game Designer at Blizzard, and is apparently part of the team in charge of world events.

Commento di 11660

Yep, I was just chilling in the camp, and this little gnome came walking up. I have Heightened Senses, so I saw this UD Rogue named Gankly following her for a while. Curious as to what was going on, I stuck around to watch. She says something about a shipment of skins, and then the rogue attacked her. Easy kill, she offers a quest to give the skins to the guy literally lying down right next to her ... the same guy she was talking to just a moment before.

Commento di Oh420

Time of day and if someone turns in a quest doesn't seem to tigger Kristen to spawn, but if it matters she spawned at 12:40am I only waited there for 15mins to see if she'd spawn also no one turned in a quest.

Kristen DeMeza spawns on the road a little towards zangarmarsh on a mechostrider. Dismounts and talks to Harold for a couple seconds. Ganky Rottenfist spawns stealthed unattackable behind the tent and walks up behind Kristen. Stand right behind Kristen also cause soon as Ganky Rottenfist gets to Kristen he's attackable that way you can get the tap on the mob in case anyone else is going to steal your quest. That is if you can't group together for whatever reason.

Tried to ask a GM about this event and he wouldn't give a time for when the event would come of course...
So still no idea on when or how this event triggers. Might just be completely random. And if it is a random event it will probably have a really long respawn time. I have waited there numerous times and no gnome has come....

IMO not worth waiting to do.

Commento di mauvaisherb

i just completed this quest...i had just handed in The Ultimate Bloodsport and then she appeared 2mins after that. I don't no if that trigger's the event or not?

She appeared at 01.00 game time :)

Commento di 102676

I just accepted this quest and the world server crashed. When I got back, I still had the quest but hadn't recieved skins, and outlands appeared to have been reset, so the gnome was gone. *sob*

Commento di ValhallaBDF

damn, i got there just as she was about to die....so not fair

Commento di ValhallaBDF

well, about 45 mins later she showed up again as i was turnin in quests....so....i win lol

Commento di 109410

she spawned in the camp at 5:25pm for me. she was at 6% hp before i showed up

Commento di 124958

Usually i try and see if i can camp the spot around Nesingwary's to assure that i do indeed complete this quest. Its one of the first things i do when i start questing around Nagrand.

On my recent occasion i have found myself camping the area for <2 1/2 hours upto now. When i first arrived i was just too late so i picked up all of the first-available Mastery quests and stayed in approx the same location so i could see her ride down from Zangarmarsh.

As i was finishing up the final bits of the first quests, i decided to go AFK for all of 2minutes and what do you know? She was there, on minimal health. She was dead before i could get aggro off of Gankly. It sucks that there is no accurate timescale setup for this event. Gankly 2 - 0 Arreats Alt!

Commento di 126835

Spawned at exactly 1:00am for me (EST, GMT-5)
Location: 71, 40

Accepted, then turned in "I'm Saved" at location.
11000xp
3G, 30s

Extemely easy to solo as a 66 Blood Elf Mage.

Edit: Also found at exactly 2:25AM

Commento di yokai

She spawned at 12:15am, i noticed it was exactly after Harold did this unique emote

"Harold Lane winces when he touches the tender area around his scratch".

I say unique because all i ever saw him do was:

"Harold Lane wakes himself up snoring."
"Harold Lane begins to whistle a tune but stops abruptly and moans"
"Harold Lane looks at his friends and then grunts painfully."

and also while i was waiting, the camp was under attack by talbuks.

Through out my 1.2 hours of wait time (ish), i saw harold cycle through those 3 emotes, saw the camp invasion once, cycle through the same 3 emotes again, then finally he did his unique "scratch" emote which ensued Kristen DeMeza spawning.

~Yokai, Chromaggus US

edit: Apparently he also does another emote without Kristen DeMeza spawning:

"Shifting, Harold Lane moans from the pain of his thorn scratch."

which, hopefully, won't be confused for the unique scratch one O_o

Commento di Uttermadnez

i read the posts, and due to the time I was playing, i tested out the 1:00am theory. CONFIRMED: last saturday morning March 29... i went there about 12:50am...and she showed up around like 1:10-ish am.

ALSO: just this morning, Tues. April 1 (ironic).... i just happend to be turning in heart of Tusker, and stumbled upon Gankly attacking the gnome chick. this happened at 3:30am
so Gankly propably started attacking at like 3:28-ish

Commento di 45375

11:20 server time she spawned for me. She stayed there for 6-7 mins before she despawned. I had announced to the zone that she was there and several others came and completed the quest after I did while she was still up.

Commento di JonnyBigBoss

Just spawned at 11:20 server time. 11000 exp and 3g at level 65!

Commento di 17792

Had no idea this quest existed. Was flying over Nagrand to do the daily and saw an exclamation on my map over Nesingwary camp. Flew down, saw this gnome, got quest, and completed it right after. So first time seeing this quest after 2+ years of playing BC.

Commento di AchillesJG

I logged in, at 9.30am server time to see two of them fighting away. Since I' never PvP, I took the time to look up the characters, by that time, she was dead. First time I've seen her, this with my 4th toon

Commento di Schadenfreude

I got there too late, looked up the rogue NPC on wowhead and then got smoked by two talbuk mobs. Le sigh.

Commento di fbodyvixen

I was sitting at the safari trying to figure out where I wanted to put my recent talent point, when I noticed a conversation. "Hi, Harold. I have your skins!" I looked up and saw Kristen and Gankly stealthing up behind her. I killed him without any problems (67 holy pally) and got the quest. Easy xp :D I checked my clock right before I attacked and it was 5:50am server time.

Also, right at this time Harold emotes 'Harold Lane winces when he touches tender area around his scratch'. Could be just coincidence. But thought I'd note it anyway.

Commento di 159267

Just to add another time to the list...

she rode into camp at 11:50 am server for me, with Gankly showing up ~ 1 min later.

didnt notice if Harold emoted anything or not. She despawned at 12.

Commento di 161636

I cant believe nobody has noticed this yet ...
Nagrand is a HUGE zone for skinners, and the "progress text" says

"Kristen is a very nice...<cough>... person to share her skins, wouldn't you agree?"

like "<cough> or <wink>" to sarcastically draw someone's attention to something?

i lol'd

Commento di Renathras

3:36 AM CST (GMT -6, I think), and I was riding back to the camp to turn in Windroc Mastery and there he was, already attacking her. I had to use a lot of instant casts and short casting time Scorch (67 Blood Elf mage) to finish him before he finished her, but it worked, so I guess another time to add to the list of no one mentioned it already; 3:36 AM Friday morning (and this server is CST local time.)

Commento di OhTeeSee

As of 2.4.3 (or possibly prior) Kristen DeMeza is now Kristen Dipswitch, the cause for this change is unknown.

Commento di StellHell

Kristen has a 1.5h respawntime (1hour 30 minutes). When she spawns, she stayes at the camp for 5 minutes or until she is killed.

I camped Nesingswary tonight, and logged some times.

01:00: Kristen spawns and runs down to Nesingswary
01:05: Kristen despawns from the spot
02:35: Kristen spawns and runs down to Nesingswary
02:40: Kristen despawns from the spot

These times are all serverside, checked with /time command.

Set and Setting:

Waiting on Krsten Demeza. I spent over two hours waiting for this event one night.

Activitys:

Started grinding out Nes's first three master quests.

Kept a close eye on the camp while grinding almost continually in close range to the camp.

Finished early. (completed all three quests in 25-30 minutes)

Continued to grind on the saw few respawns. There are plenty to keep my busy and let me stay close enough to the camp so I know what's happening.

Conclusions:

Event does not appear to be directly linked to any scripted sequence or event (ex. The Stag Event)

Event does not appear to be based on or tied to emotes.

Event does not appear to happenly on an hourly basis let alone on the hour.

Thoughts:

I can confirm that it is not linked to the stag event or any textual event involving the camp. I saw most (probably all) of the different scripted events and emotes that can take place in Nesingwary's camp multiple times that night. I even saw the emote: "Harold Lane winces when he touches the tender area around his scratch" and another similar version. Though tangibly rarer than the other emotes, these emotes did not seem to trigger the event. I witnessed most of the emotes multiples. I have noticed that it does not seem to be hourly. I was there for two complete hours. I didn't notice it occur at all at that time. When it did occur, the time was no where near a popular relative quanta and based on previous evidence did not appear to be hourly in anyway.

Further details of my attempt:

After over two hours of waiting and grinding in the immediate area of the tent, I finally saw her ride up.

It's a little gnome that comes riding from the entrance into Zangarmarsh (in the Northeast of Nagrand). She rides Soutwest along the path and pulls over into camp. She dismounts and begins talking to the injured man (Harold, the man lying down in camp). As she talks to him, Gankly Rottenfist sneaks up from behind Harold's tent around it's side and then moves into position behind her back (her back should be facing the tent from where Gankly is coming) and then after a short pause he attacks. Krizten isn't super squishy. She can take a few hits, but does go down fairly fast. You have a matter of up to 7 seconds or so to respond to the even after she dismounts. Gankly's attention is easily one. I prepped a Searing Pain on my lock just in case, but he came off with no fuss. After that it's just as simple as most other mobs. Non elite. He goes down without much effort.

Advice:

Get the Nes's three beginning quests and grind in the immediate area. I was able to grind out all three quests in 25 minutes without leaving the area. At this point, after you have finised the quests, you should ready to leave this area. You can justify staying by looking for a quest starting drop off an Air elemental in the area. Outside of that. I would recommend you move on. The event is kinda cool, but not worth blowing time on it not happening. If you do decide to stay, which I advise against, continually grind those mobs down in the area (great for skinners).

Gankly

Gankly is easy to deal with. Stand near Kristen and when Gankly comes close (if you have trouble seeing him spam tab till he comes up while facing his general direction) target him and spam a high aggro fast cast spell. That should get him on you almost as soon as is attackable flag is set. Burn him down. He is an easy fight. Get your sweet xp. Some would call it free xp .. I would call it lucky in that case. I had to point a lot of work in for it, but I did get a good bit of grinding done.

If you really want this quest, imagine it's a grinding-endurance test and start grinding till it happens.

Commento di 140039

Ok, time for me to add my part to this mass of confusion. After reading all these comments for a seemingly unknown reason, I thought I'd contribute.

So I went to Nagrand and flew with mah mount to the camp. I arrived at roughly 17:05 server time. All was calm. Talked to all the q givers, just for the sake of what they said.

Then I scurried away to the crashed plane and thought "Snakes on a Plane" and I was just about to WoWhead that Forsaken pilot, if she sold something unusual. That is when I heard the stealth noice and the demount sound and as out of the blue sky, there was the little gnomey lass at 17:07 server time. So I killed Gankly and got the quest. Eventhough I had done it when I was actually leveling in Nagrand ages ago.

So it appears that she shows up totally randomly.

Commento di erielhonan

Saw her there when I went to turn in Gutripper and Bach'lor loot. First time I've seen her. She despawned while I was reading this thread on how special she is, so I missed a chance to screencap her. Approx. 12:40 AM server time.

I was surprised to see some undead beating on a gnome at Nesingwary's camp, so I killed him (checked his PvP status first... too many randoms looking for a fight in Nagrand on my realm).

Commento di Lapse

11:35 pm server time on wednesday, stayed up all of 5 minutes

Commento di 153995

I don't know if it's related to the event, but at 11:16pm server Harold did the emote "Shifting, Harold Lane moans from the pain of his thorn scratch." Kristen showed up immediately after.

Commento di 54791

It appears this quest spawns more rapidly in 3.0.2. I finally completed it on my priest on the PTR's today, and not 10 minutes later the rogue spawned again.

Commento di 18516

I waited forever for her. I got to Nesingwary at 12:30 and she showed up at 2:35. She rides up fast from the south and Ganky approaches from the south stealthed around the tent. You cannot attack him until he attacks her. It's a super easy quick fight, but GEEZE, I waited two hours. Glad I have 2 monitors for that. The achievements amuse me enough to do them, but I'm still the biggest fan of Leeeeeeeroy!

Commento di 213121

I just did this on my 70 hunter on Jubei'Thos, and I'm doing this for the Achievement "Nagrand Slam". I arrived at Nesingwary Safari at exactly 4:00pm ST, and waited and waited. Harold Lane /emotes alot so NO this does not trigger it. Fitz and Hemet even got into combat with a couple of talbuks but still didn't trigger anything.

5:02pm ST Kristen Dipswitch arrives. Straight away I noticed Ganky Rottenfist coming up stealthed behind her. I waited till they were in combat and killed him.

5:08pm ST Kristen Dipswitch despawns.

So yeah I waited an hour for this. The sad part was, I've already done this quest! ><

Sihmm tnx for the help on the tip for that quest...i was thinking what quest i was still missing check all the quest giver but could not think of any missing until i read you comment..tnx a lot

Commento di LaxLohi

OH GOD! This is so lame :D I was hanging around Nesingwary's camp, waiting for the event to happen. I got there about 11:25 server time and flew around killing a mob here and there. I thought that I'll start camping the place 11:55 more precisely so I won't miss anything.

Being the retard I am, in couple minutes I somehow FORGOT what I was doing and went to the other room to change my clothes.

When I got back, it was 12:02, and I could see the event in my chat, gankly killing Kristen and me failing to get the LAST quest I needed for Loremaster of Outland :(

the Event started 11:59 server time.

Back to waiting I guess :/

EDIT: after doing some other stuff i came back to the camp and at 13:40 server time the npc was back, the event just started and I managed to save the gnome and get my last quest!

Commento di OloPower

I didnt have to kill Gankly to get this quest, someone else had killed him.

At least, his corpse where lying there. She offered me a quest. I turned the quest in to the guy next to her. 11k xp. Easypeasy

Commento di november

She appeared for me at 1:20 a.m. server time, Gankly a few seconds after that.
I had been waiting at Nesingwary's camp since 12:50, so it definitely took longer than 10 minutes for the event to repeat.

Commento di 63855

So yeah... the spawn time on this chick blows. No joke I've been hanging out at the camp for going on 3 hrs now and she has yet to spawn. Last quest I need to finish Nagrand Slam for horde.

Commento di Sabretann

Well, I'm waiting for this quest now, tho I dont think I will see it @ 1 server time...
I have been here for an hour, and the npc spawned @ 00:28... tho ofcorse I had to run AFK for a second, and the nessingway npc nicked the kill, and no quest giver appears...

Commento di 111794

So anyhow thought i'd share my data/experience. After an hours wait, she finally showed up at 5:04 sever time. Like many people, this is the last quest i needed for the Nagrand slam quest achievement (Alliance 74/75) and no surprise i never knew it existed until seeing i lacked 1 quest for the achievement.

Just turn up on the hour (example, 12:00, 01:00, 02:00, 03:00, 4:00 and so on)

8:34 Began waiting.
8:50 Stag attack.
9:12 Stag attack.
9:34 Still there, no spawn.

9:51 Stag attack.
9:54 I turn in a quest.
10:00 Nothing.
10:13 Stag attack.
10:34 I leave.

So sometimes it skips the hour or what? Most people confirm it's a 1 hour spawn everytime but here I am, waited 2 hours and nothing.

Commento di 72114

Yeah, nearly impossible if you're 80 and not doing the zone as a matter of regular questing. I'm trying to find this gnome just for the achievement for the quests in the zone. I've camped the camp, not leaving once, for an hour from 12:29 am to 1:29 am. No dice. Dunno if I'll come back or not.

Try to get this one as your leveling in the zone!

Btw, I didn't go back, but it turns out I hadn't done the Ring of Blood quests so since those count, I got it made!

Commento di AzureShadow42

Irony: when you're reading through wowhead to see how much of a time sink of a particular random event quest might be, begin to lose hope that you'll have to wait forever, drum your fingers on the mouse for a minute and suddenly see (off to the side, in the game window behind the browser window) a gnome ride up like a bat outta hell. :)

Stood by Harold about 8-10 minutes or so while skimming the comments here. Had both windows sized down a bit so I could keep an eye on things while reading. Occurred 10:47pm server time. Dumb luck I guess. No noticeable triggers.

Commento di grakka

19:53 server time @ ravencrest

Commento di Jaadis

Waited from 18:00 or around to 23:24 server time until Kristen finally spawned. Thats almost 4 hours and this totally feels like random. There were lots of emotes and talbuk attacks during that time, many times people came and completed their Ultimate bloodsport achievement but it doesn't seem to have anything to do with this quest.

Just make wow in windowed mode, turn camera so you can see Harold Lane in little part of screen and browse websites, watch videos or whatever :p When the gnome spawns and when she is attacked there is chat action too. The rogue appears just few seconds after her.

Commento di neoblaze

I just completed this by camping the Nesingwary Safari for about an hour. I was about to give up, but decided to fly up to the border to Zangarmarsh up the road. And sure enough, she was standing still there on her mech! I took the quest without even getting to kill the rogue, and delivered promptly. This was at about 08:45 GMT+1 on Terokkar.

This does indeed count for the Nagrand Slam achievement.

Commento di 483018

Spawned at 9.59, server time (Perenolde US). This was right after Harold's emote "Shifting, Harold Lane moans from the pain of his thorn scratch", may or may not actually be related. Despawn at 10:05.

Commento di netnewsnow

Okay, after doing this quest 3 times, this is basically how it goes

The spawn time of 1h30 is correct, however, there is a random patern sometimes that shows up where it spawns every hour, and another that makes it spawn at different times, dont know if when she gets killed that makes her spawn faster afterwards but it seems to happen.

If you really want to do this quest, I suggest you play your alt and parc the toon you want this quest done on him and log in 5 min before the time she's supposed to spawn, kill the surrounding mobs, and if after 5 min she's not there, log out and wait for the next possible sighting.

Commento di Bubonic

Kristen appeared at 8:25 server time; this quest did count toward Nagrand Slam.

Commento di fgambino

True, Kristen appears at Nesingwary camp after some minutes I was here.
Wait also the arrival of the rogue and then kill him... done.

Commento di Aletto

Waited for two and a half hours before I gave up. This quest just isn't worth waiting for. If it happens while you're at the camp, it's a nice bit of free XP and contributes to Nagrand Slam, but otherwise skip it.

It seems to me like there's no set time for the gnome to show up. After so many posts on the first page indicated the event happens at 1:00 AM server time, I took my place in front of Harold Lane at 12:45 AM server time and ended up leaving at 3:15 AM. Harold Lane did about forty emotes and the camp was attacked by talbuks about four times.

Really frustrating. Could be bugged, but then, how would anyone know?

Wait something didn't register... you are all saying that Kristen Dipswitch should DEspawn? as in unless the event is in progress there should be no one near Harold Lane's tent?

I have been here for 90 minutes and Kristen was right infront of me the entire time? as if stuck. I even pulled an air elemental into camp and she helped kill it but when i pulled a Windroc she just stood there.

So how is Kristin supposed to ride in from Zang where she is already here?

Garithos : 7/25/2010 : Appeared @ 2:25 a.m. server time.

I don't know if this helps someone collating this information, but there it is.

Commento di glorybox

I saw her at 7:51am server time (Feathermoon) but my coffee hadn't kicked in yet so I just watched the rogue fight her. I wandered off and came back to find him dead and her gone. After I read it was a quest, I camped the site. Almost two hours later I decided I better get my main to the site so she could get Nagrand Slam, so I logged into her and flew to the camp just in time to see Kristen ride up on a red mechanostrider at 9:39 am.

My main killed the rogue, got the quest, and then I logged back to my other toon and completed the quest on her too. She despawned after 5 minutes.

Commento di 496052

Just a small heads up:

Some of the above post claim that the event starts by an certain emote of Harold Lane. I can succesfully report that none of his emotes trigger this quest. If Harold Lane uses an emote just before the quest starts, it's merely an coincedence!

Commento di edmeister9000

Just from doing this questy one time i do have a cpl of observations. I really dont think that she spawns every 90 minutes on the hour or the half hour times, I think it might have something more to do with what time the server gets reset. thus, if you log in immediately after it resets you might get to see her spawn, or watch her die and have to wait another hour and a half for her to show up...

Edit: Okay, now i did a few nessingway quests, and guess what, i got to see her spawn again, this time exactly 1 hour and 10 minutes later, so i guess this means that 90 minutes is an average amount of time, not an exact amount of time...

Commento di violentravi

OK... so here's the deal on this mysterious quest... first of all she DOES spawn every 1 1/2 hours.... it is different per server... so do not mark me on this but I'm assuming she spawns first at server restart on tuesday...then every 1 1/2 hours after that... i logged into nessingwary at 12:55pm today and the rogue was there... and she wasn't... ie she died... so I came back at 2:15 and waited... and waited... then i went up the road towards nagrand... and there she was... with the quest!

This means.... the rogue is killable as soon as she spawns up the road... if you wait at nessingwary ALL DAY... you can STILL miss her:) I hope this helps you guys!

Here's my fraps: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aVlMlzjHTeU

Commento di Kuuros

I waited for what seemed like eternity for her to show up! 2 and a half hours before she finally road into camp off the road from the Northeast on a Turbostrider @ about 4:30 am server time (Cenarion Circle). She'll ride right up to Harold Lane, dismount, and the event begins. Gankly will approach in stealth from behind Harold's tent.

Commento di 499474

If you're in the position where I was and you need 1 last quest for Nagrand, consider grinding rep for the Consortium instead. The additional quests you gain at each level of rep count for Nagrand Slam and the grind will likely drive you way less insane than waiting for a gnome.

Commento di 651771

This quest does not counts t.oward Loremaster (at least for me it does not) getting Nagrand quest i have stilll 86... so i have to find something else... dunno which.. do not ask
(tried with my main at: 2010.09.20 23:00 server time around...)

Commento di 694075

Anyone know what time she spawns for Wyrmrest Accord? I waited for almost an hour and she still hasn't shown up.

Commento di kharly

I found her when there was an bunch of elementals attacking the camp. Killed the rogue and then she ran off to kill elementals and despawned before combat ended. Never gave me the quest!

Commento di Smeltn

12:23 server time she spawned for me

Commento di 717203

Arrived 13:05 UK time - it's now 14:19 and still no sign. Will keep updating!

Commento di raven1627

Kristen DeMeza appeared at 3:24 pm on the Perenolde server.

Commento di Aveliia

I have 4 quests and carbonite thinks this is one i need. along with vision of the dead, and levixus the soul caller, a mystifying vision, and visions of destruction. I cannot get any of these. no ! on the NPC guys head. :(

Commento di 756669

I dunno if this has anything to do with timing, but at exactly 2:40 server time the talbuk attack happened, and exactly 5 minutes later Kristen rides up.

Commento di 745917

She appeared exactly at 01:25 am server time on Lightning's blade.

Commento di amelyana

3 hours and no quest.. I don't think this quest appears every hour and 1/2

Commento di 240506

When I checked the camp, Dipswitch was just standing there at the tent. I kept checking back, but she never de-spawned or was attacked for more than an hour. At that point, I noticed a Howler passed near the camp every few minutes.

I pulled the Howler towards Dipswitch, and then hit Vanish...Dipswitch continued to fight the Howler, and it killed her.

90 minutes later, she came riding up to the tent, and Gankly spawned immediately afterwords. Killed him and got the quest...

Commento di Vesuvius79

Just did this quest. Killed Gankly at 4.13 realm time.

Commento di 690501

Heh, this event happened right as I was reading about in on here. She spawned at 2:57 AM for me. The stag event started about a minute after.

Commento di 766753

I had been camping there since 01:00, to 02:35, all times when she should spawn but as someone wrote before;
When I had the message "You can only complete 25 more daily quests" today, I went to the road and there she came on her little mechanostrider.

I have never in my life been that happy to spot a gnome.

Commento di 810787

Ahhhh, this is so frustrating. I need one quest to get the "Nagrand Slam" achieve. Because my rep is too high with the consortium, this is the only quest I can do.... I have been sitting in the camp for 2 hours waiting for this silly gnome :(

Commento di 810787

So, I got there at 12.20 (server time) She finally arrived at 3.32. That was a LONG camp-out.

Commento di EonDrache

She spawned on Dethecus about 30 minutes ago. No event or anything. She is still there. No Ganky followed her there, no attacks, Kind of shocked she hasn't despawned. Last quest I need for Nagrand Slam.

EDIT: 45 mins and she hasn't despawned.

Commento di 130064

She appeared around 4:25 p.m. EST on Whisperwind. Unfortunately, I was afk, reading THIS thread, and she died before I got back. DOH!

Commento di 116782

Got up at 3:45am to be in Nag at reset time. Gankly spawned in front of Harold Lane at about 4:01. No Dipswitch. Waited, know she's on a timer, thought Gankly might be too.
Half hour later, no Dipswitch.

At 4:50 she appeared.

Waited until Gankly attacked and she called for Help. When I killed the Gankly that had been in front of the tent a second Gankly spawned and stealthed in to attack Dipswitch. After I killed him I finally got the quest. Put an APB out over the Trade channel to tell folks she was up.

Commento di 487694

Just got this at 18:10, local server time (Azshara). Couldn't attack until Gankly attacked and when he was down the quest followed shortly after.

Commento di 398940

She appeared at 2:16pm server time on Hakkar. Got Gankly a few seconds later.

Now just need one more quest to get Nagrand Slam and Loremaster <sigh>

Commento di MizKitteh

I must have lucked out. As I landed in the camp, she ran up right then. I am going to say it was 10:48 PM on Kael'Thas

Commento di 806195

So far there has been no luck on the on the hour theory. Been here since 1:30 PM server time it is now 2:15 PM server time. I will be staying until the quest starts and will update the situation. The Talbuk's attacked around 2:00 PM server time and then Herold's speech fallowed.

Commento di 806195

Camped for 1 hour from 1:30 PM to 2:30 PM server time showed up around the 2:30 PM. Appears as though maybe on the 1.5 hour spawn time. However I cannot confirm this as fact.

Commento di 785496

I sat there for a while and she spawned at 8pm on Korgath. Right around that time I saw a third talbulk attack. I don't know if they're linked.

Commento di ccmccoy

I have confirmed that Kirsten and her attacking rogue spawn when Tusker is killed. I had tried this successfully with another character a few months ago, and while passing through Nagrand on my 85 Hunter today I decided to again test the theory: killed Tusker and flew to the Nesingwary Safari and sure enough there Kirsten and the rogue were, engaged in combat. After killing the rogue the quest "I'm saved" was available and immediately completed.

Note that Hemet Nesingwary mentions Tusker when asked what he is doing in Nagrand.

Don't forget to announce in General Chat that Kirsten is available once you dispatch the rogue so others can get the completion. She remains at the Safari for several minutes.

Added: Apparently killing Tusker after you have already completed "I'm Saved" does not cause Kirsten to spawn ... at least that's what happened when I killed Tusker again about 2 hours after posting the above paragraphs.

Commento di Melyldya

area 52 us realm appeared at 4.05 am :) after 2 days of just missing it lol

Commento di 878492

Alright I can absolutely confirm the utterance of ccmccoy in connection to that by Thathie.

Patiently waited for the rogue to spawn for an hour, the gnome standing in the camp - nothing.
During that time I saw that stromling mentioned starting to attack her, but I saved her - but now I think that is exactly what that stormling is intended to do: Kill the gnome in order to reset the event.

I pulled some Earth Elemental towards her, let it kill her, headed southwards, killed Tusker, returned to the camp and waited. 10 Minutes later the gnome was back in the camp with that damn stupid rogue attacking her.

After saving her I got the quest, returned it, Nagrand Slam - not a big deal at the end :)

I don't know if killing Tusker was needed for triggering the event, however doing it won't hurt nobody ;)

Killing time about 00:50

Commento di 827398

On Mok'Nathal about 12:50 PM server time when I saw the posts about this and headed to Nesingwary and got there just as the rogue attacked her. About 12:52 server time.

Commento di Ilgaten

I came upon the camp and saw Gankly standing there with no sign of Kristen, and I killed him. I decided to come back an hour or so later and hovered above the camp while reading this thread. I returned to the WOW screen at one point to see Gankly attacking Kristen, so I swooped down, killed Gankly, got the quest and turned it in.

I killed Gankly at 7:37 a.m. server time (Thrall, U.S.). Kristen despawned at 7:42 a.m.

To address some possible triggers mentioned in this thread:

1) Harold's emote and the three-talbuk attack both happened as I was gleefully reading Kristen's quest text. That's after Gankly was dead and Kristen was saved, not shortly before Kristen spawned.

2) I have not killed Tusker on this toon, but someone else might have killed him shortly before Kristen spawned; a Hordie had visited all three quest-givers about 10 minutes before. But if he killed Tusker, he was very slow in returning for the reward. (I stayed at camp at least 10 minutes after turning in the quest.)

I came back to the camp later to test the hour-and-a-half respawning possibility. I returned at 8:54 a.m. just in time to see another three-talbuk attack. But 9:07 a.m. -- an hour and a half since the previous Kristen-spawn -- passed with no sign of her. I waited another 15 minutes and saw nothing.

Edit: In case anyone is still scouring these pages, it seems Kristen was available more frequently in 2013 (when I was levelling Horde characters) than in 2011 (when I was levelling Alliance). That might be due to Blizzard's changes to the zone over the years -- such as, no more group quests to kill elites -- I really don't know. I've still never seen Kristen on a mechanostrider, though. Maybe when I level that third faction.

Commento di Kaiteir

Went by to try to do this quest for Loremaster credit and found her at the camp already. Came back an hour later, she was still there. Came back in another hour and she hadnt moved. I'm not sure if its maybe bugged on my server or if this quest isnt available anymore?

US-The Venture Co.

Update:

Confirmed the bug is still in place and GM's are aware of it. My GM did not reset the NPC however. They said they are working to resolve the issue and hopefully it can be fixed soon.

Commento di 899014

Still bugged. Waited for her to spawn, killed Gank, she didn't have quest. Put in yet another ticket and response I got back was telling me to come on here and 'do some research'. REALLY? Glad my money is being put to good use in being told to do research on something they know is bugged D:<

Commento di mgg4wow

Was bugged on Madoran. Followed the advice of Thathie and kited a wind elemental over to where she was in the camp. She obliged by coming out to attack the elemental, and died in the attempt. It took another 90 minutes, but sure enough, she rode in boldly; and was dutifully attacked by Gankly. It took almost nothing for a level 85 mage to take Gankly out. I finally have Nagrand Slam, after 2 years sitting at 74/75 quests complete for the zone.

Commento di Daeymien

Reset by Howler method still works nicely.

Was bugged when I came up to her at 06:40. Body pulled a Howler to the side of Harold's tent facing the road to agg her and keep out of distance of Fitz and Hemet. She died, killed off the Howler.

Went around killing things for the Mastery quests to stay in the area.

07:04 she came wandering back into camp and the script played out normally.

Commento di Kidja

It seems they fixed re-spawn timer, when i came in Nesingwary Safari there was a dead body of Gankly Rottenfist.
I waited between 10-15min and Kristen Dipswitch spawned on the road.that going trough camp.

Commento di 644463

I arrived at camp to find the bugged Kristen Montalama standing around and brought over a howler to kill her. This was at 8:01 pm server time. I sat in camp while looking at all the comments on wowhead for her and the quest, then worked on the first 3 kill quests until she arrived at 8:42 pm server time. I killed the rogue and got the quest.
If you're trying to nab this quest, I highly recommend having sounds on in the background, parking yourself near the fire so you do not aggro patrolling howlers, and then alt-tab for a good 30 minutes (remember to tab back in so you don't afk out). Tab back in when you hear either her mecho running in or the rogue attacking.
If you want the Nagrand Slam without having to farm this random event, you can get more quests in Nagrand by doing some of the higher up (level 68+) quests in Shadowmoon Valley. Keep questing SMV after you get L'ombra del traditore and eventually you get sent back to Altruis il Sofferente in Nagrand. For Scryer faction players, Larissa Sferzasole gives the quest that sends you back to Nagrand; for Aldor faction, Esarca Onaala.

Edit: She showed up again at 9:23 pm server time, 41 minutes after her previous spawn, which had been 41 minutes since "unbugging" her. Also, no other players got the Colline come Elekk Bianchi achievement during this time, and the only talbuk attack that occurred was about 2 minutes after Kristen got killed by the rogue at 9:23 (I didn't save her, because I'm such a meanie). In my mind at least, this seems to disconnect her spawns from other events in the zone.

Edit 2: 10:05 pm server. Kristen rides in again. this is 42 minutes after her last spawn. I'm more convinced of a 40-45 minute respawn timer for her now. Hopefully this is something they made "easier" with the 4.3 changes to old content

Commento di Nightshine067

I see why "The Green Hills of Stranglethorn"

http://www.wowhead.com/object=204273#same-model-as

is there to read. I've been here for 30 minutes and no spawn.

Commento di 394254

Been trying to figure out what quests I have left for the Nagrand Slam achievement on my Warrior and decided to wait this one out. First I came to that campsite and waited for well over 2hrs and the Gnome just simply would not despawn.

Waited for the Air Elemental to cruise by to see if I could get it to kill her. 'Round the corner it comes and a level 64 Hunter lands and kills it. *eye twitch* So wandered over to a hill a ways off and taunt-kited an Enraged Earth Spirit over. Got the thing within maybe 20ft and the gnome immediately darted over saying "Ack! Somebody help me!"

She died at 14:36 and her body disappeared within 30 seconds.
Sat around, looking at random image sites with Background Sound enabled and at 15:11 she showed up once again at the camp.
Gankly popped up, but being an 85, I looked at him funny and he fell over.
She despawned 5 minutes later as she normally should

---
I would place the respawn timer at roughly 30 minutes after death, considering she spawns at the edge of Nagrand and Zangarmarsh and RP-Walks on her mount to the camp.

Furthermore, I've stuck around for her to show up again and let the NPCs kill off Gankly. 15 minutes have passed and she has yet to despawn. Perhaps there needs to be player interaction in that event for her to despawn at all?

Note that this is just speculation, but I'm guessing that the patrolling Dust Howler is supposed to be slightly closer to the camp so that when she's nearby, she will automatically run to attack it, get killed if there's no one around to help her, and thus reset the quest if it's "stuck".

Commento di Peter4730

May 2012. 3 days ago Kristen appeared at 11.00am, and then again at 1.00pm game-time, same day, closely followed by Gankly. Today, went to the camp (on unrelated business) and there she was in battle with Gankly at 08.57am game-time. Looks like she appears every 2 hours on the odd hour, or a few minutes either side. (P.S. You need to get this quest, if you have any pretensions on Loremaster).

Commento di sapristoire

Yes, as a few others have noted before, the mechanism to get her quest became different recently (at least when compared with 4.2.x days). It used to be just blindly wait for her to show up, now player must actively make her despawn:

Stand near her and lure Belva della Polvere to attack you.
Wait for her to attack Belva della Polvere, then die and despawn.
Wait for ? minutes until she show up again.
Help her to defeat Gankly Pugnomarcio, then the quest will be presented to player.

Instead of 90 minutes as noted in Wowwiki, seems many people noticed the timer is relatively shorter now. My observation (just managed to get the quest an hour ago) was 30 minutes -- at 05:16 she despawns, then I come back at 05:47 she just started fighting the rogue.

Commento di helfire57

I'll confirm that she doesn't seem to despawn unless you pull a mob over her. Took exactly 30 min for her to ride up on a mechanostrider. Gankly showed up about 10 sec later. But I do think that if she is already there, you're going to need to get her killed off before she will spawn. Good luck!

Commento di 1017606

Followed the steps mentioned above:
-Drag mob to her and then switch mob to her ~5:43pm server
-Killed Tusker ~5:50pm server
-Flew Back up to camp and waited, at 6:01pm server she appeared coming from zanga
-She dismounts and a rogue comes up, you kill him and the quest is ready to pick up
Not sure what is related, but there it is: could be the time could be the NPC kill, could be random.

Commento di 57944

Easy way to get this quest:

Pull a mob near kristen (i pulled a dust howler), she will aggro it and ask for help. Just let the mob kill her. She will respawn shortly after triggering the event where the rogue attacks her. Just kill him, job done.

Commento di klaatu42

Dipswitch's spawn time isn't 90 minutes as has been previously stated. I just found her standing at the Nesingwary camp, so I pulled over a howler, let it kill her, and within 30 minutes she came riding back into the camp and was attacked by Gankly, etc. allowing me to pick up the quest.

Commento di axelia

Well, I followed the advice from another player and went and killed Tuskar and flew straight back to the camp. When I arrived I saw Gankly Rottenfist attacking Kristen Dipswitch at the camp - was able to pick up and hand in the quest straight away.

Server time: 23:11 when handing in.

Commento di peidredark

I did the same thing as the last guy. Obviously, killing Tuskar is some sort of trigger for her now. It worked perfectly

Commento di madmaxxp

Spawn at 3:20 am for me.
Wait for the rogue to attack her and kill him.
She give me the quest just a few secondes after.

Add her to NPCScan will help

/npcscan add 18294 Kristen Dipswitch

Commento di StarFire2686

Since this is required for Nagrand Slam please be kind and post in general when the quest is avialable. Especially now with cross realms it saves your fellow players some time. I did this today and 7 people flew over for the quest while working for the achievement just while i was there.

Commento di cpl0311

Was just looking at what I still needed to complete in Nagrand and Wholly linked me to this quest. After reading that she (Kristin Dipswitch) has a spawn time I just sat there to wait. In 15 minutes she spawned and I completed the quest. Server time 22:35 (Misha), good luck and hope this helps.

Commento di magebaby

When I arrived at the camp she was nowhere to be seen, so after about 30 minutes of waiting I decided I'd try killing Tusker <Queen of the Elekk> and flew back to the camp. Within 5 minutes she came riding up on her mechanostrider. Gankly comes around from behind the tent after she greets Harold Lane, kill him when he attacks and done deal.

Commento di circa1986

At 10:40 am server time, Dipswitch came riding into Nesingwary's camp, and 1 minute later, Gankly appeared. Killed him and I was able to pick up the quest.

Commento di quentine

Using realm hop helps alot. By premade groups, joining to random groups from other realms makes your chance get this quest faster. I was 74/75 and it was a goal :)

Commento di Hylianspirit

Tried the Tusker theory and she didn't spawn (although I had previously completed the heart of Tusker quest) saw a list with the 1.5hr spawn times for a 1am server and decided to wait until 4pm in game, around 4:02 she spawned and got the quest. Not too painful.

Commento di Skult

There is an easy and quick way to make he appear.
First, lure one Belva della Polvere in she, the add will kill her, wait 10~20min to Kristen Montalama release and a few minutes later Gankly Pugnomarcio will appear to attack her. Simply kill him and the quest Sono salva! will appear.

After killing the undead, some time later, Kristen Montalama will disappear with the quest, so you'll have to wait around 1:30h for her come back, so take the quest quickly.

Possibly when she dies, the NPC script "backs" down, allowing the quick respawn of the Gankly Pugnomarcio.

PS: Kill Tusker maybe help increase the respawn times.

Commento di biatos

Patch 8.2
To get the Quest Sono salva!, you need to kill Gankly Pugnomarcio. He is a Undead Rouge that only spawn when Kristen Montalama is spawning.

Case 1: Kristen Montalama arives on a Mechanostrider from the Mainpath near the Camp. When she dismounts Gankly Pugnomarcio spawns near the Tent an starts to attack her. If you Kill him, she will offer Sono salva!
Case 2: Kristen Montalama is standing near the tent and dont offer Sono salva!. You need to get her killed by either a nearby Belva della Polvere or Spirito Torturato della Terra. Aggro the Mob and pull him near the Tent. Try to no get the other NPCs involved or the hostile Mob will die before Kristen Montalama. Once she is Dead you need to wait for her to respawn, i waitet 17minutes.

Good Luck

Commento di Mythanion

The quest seems to bugged at the moment. I waited for 3 hours for the rogue to spawn and Kristen Dipswitch was in the camp the whole time. I've reported it as a bug! :-)

Commento di gastyne

The rogue NPC didnt spawn after I spent 50 minutes waiting in the camp.
I noticed that when I pulled a nearby elemental near the nig tree to the south-west, she gnome NPC started attacking it, so I let her pull aggro until the elemental killed her.
When she respawned about 10 minutes later, the rogue spawned nearly instantly afterwards.

So if you've waited a while, try to do that.

Commento di Bibock

I killed the rogue but didn't get the quest... Only I could have failed this part of the quest obtention! #legendaryBadLuck

Commento di bratgirl

She showed up for me at 11.42pm server time. Both she and Gankly Rottenfist showed up at the same time.

Respawn timer was at least 1h 30m as that is how long I waited around for them.

It took a few seconds for the quest marker to appear above Kristen's head.

Commento di TerribleAtGames

This event seems to work fine now. I found the Nesingwary Safari camp under attack, with Gankly Pugnomarcio on Kristen Montalama. Cleared the hostilities picked up Sono salva! and turned it in without issues. Kristen Montalama despawned automatically after five minutes.

Commento di Montenegrino

25th of February, 01:05am

I was hunting her for some time. I tried killing Tuskar a couple of times, didnt work for me.

What i did and seems it helped, go half way between the camp and Zangar/Nagrand border on the map, pull the nearby Dust Howler and let him hit you, after some seconda She will appear.

Now i do not know if this is coincidence or not, but I did this and she spawned on her little mechanical thingy. Followed her to camp, killed the rogue, took the quest and handed it over.
