Does anyone have a lock down on Aggregor's respawn timer? It seems random as all heck and I can't figure out how often he spawns.
 
Someone, anyone, please help me. I've stood in his spawn area for six+ hours with no spawn some times. 
 
 
 
P.S.
 
I really wish there was an addon or NPC who would tell you when a boss was last killed/going to spawn.

This one is a mystery.
 
I have even tried to aggro Shards on Augmentators... to no avail.	
----
			I've been camping this guy for three weeks Carbine; would it be so wrong or game-breaking to simply tell me his respawn timer?

Make sure to keep an eye out for him during peak time.  Each instance of badlands open can spawn Aggregor.  So the more ppl playing badlands at the time, the more chance he may be around.  Watch for zone shouts.
----
			Anyone? Can carbine really not just chime in and tell us the respawn timer?	
----
			i've been asking for it for a while, they remain silent and smug

			I believe the respawn for all world bosses (except Scorch and R-12) is 10 hours. I know Aggregor is 10 hours from when I was getting my world bosses done... can't remember where I found that, though. The other issue with him is HP. Unless you are at spawn when he pops, there's no way you will ever lay eyes on him; he usually dies in only a few sec. They put in a zone-wide spawn timer when he's 10 min out, but I rarely see anyone relaying that information.

			Its based on the daily turn in quest for shards of aggregor. He'll spawn every X times the quest is completed by a different player. If no one is doing the quest he simply will never spawn.

			Welp it's not 10 hour respawn, just camped him for 10 since his last death to re-confirm.

Yup, Agg is only counted as a WB; he is technically part of a public event. I forget what starts the event; but Blah's post sounds about right.

Aren't all world bosses technically public events? They all show on the map and have a quest that pops up saying "Slay X" or "Kill X". Sure hope he isn't based on some stupid quest turn-in; my server is pretty low pop since the free transfers off, and seems stupid to punish people on low pops with terrible spawn rates (without telling us what actually spawns him).
 
----
			Would love an official word on this.	
----
			
Chua has theory that depends on shards killed, not really hand in of quest.
Would make boss impossible to spawn, pretty sure Carbine kept in mind.
 
Chua willing to run theory by killing shards whole day with group.

Greetings Level 9 Zubat, 
Unfortunately I am not allowed to reveal the respawn time of World Bosses or give details about respawn mechanics. However I raised your issue to the Content Designer in charge to confirm if everything is actually working as intended (or not). Will get back here as soon as I get more details.
 
Thanks again!	
----
			Something must deffinately be wrong with this timer. I have tried to camp Crimson several times, and i havent seen this boss in 2 months.

			Today on Pergo: spawned @ 12:18pm PST then again @ 10:20pm PST. As I said before... 10 hours.

Hello,
 
I got the confirmation that everything -should- be working as intended with Aggregor the Dust Eater. We will still have a further look at respawn timers in general just in case, but everything should be fine.

I cannot tell you anything unfortunately beside that the respawn is long and that a full server restart also resets the timer which can explain why nothing was spawned after XX hours if there was a maintenance in between.
----
			Considering there can be multiple instances of the Badlands open at any one time, and they don't seem to share the same respawn timer between them, I just don't understand the level of obfuscation that exists for this boss. Increase the transparency, or at least make it to when he spawns in one, he spawns in all of them.	
----
			Saw him spawn today, for the first time in 2 months, but no loot at all :(	
----
			
{| class="blockquote"
But why is there a long respawn on something that drops crap loot?
----
			Carbine, how do you get Gold on Aggregor? Oh and tell me how to make him spawn more please. Thanks. I really don't see how telling players this one thing would be a huge breach of anything. Been camping him for about two months now, and I am giving thought to giving up on this game because of it.

Because if he spawned more you'd be able to finish grinding rep in 29 days instead of 32 and that means you could finish in one subscription period instead of two. And THAT AIN'T HAPPENING!, so sayeth the Carbine.
----
			There is an add-on for World Boss timers (I can't remember the exact name atm). But, if I'm not mistaken, others have to have it as well for it to accurately work.	
----
			
{| class="blockquote"
Except he pretty much never drops the quest item for the daily, so not really. In 32 kills I've gotten it once.
----

I don't believe it for a second. Anyone who has camped him this much knows his timer. You've been told his timer. Yet you insist on squeezing out every last drop of information from a well you've already run dry... it's 10 hours, yo. Confirmed multiple times. As for his core, like you, I've only seen this drop once... perhaps the quest is not repeatable?
----
			
Just did Aggregor and noticed some things that signal that he's about to respawn (most of you probably noticed as well). One of them is that about 30 minutes before you even get the message that he's going to respawn in 10 minutes there is initially 1 green electricity pool close to where he respawns and 15 minutes after a 2nd one appears. The 10 minute respawn timer starts about 15 minutes after the 2nd green electricity pool appears. Another funny thing I noticed is that, at least when the 10 minute respawn timer is going, if you are in the cave where you kill Rotter the Undying you can see some shockwaves on the ground signaling he's going to respawn. 
I don't know about the 10 hour respawn timer and I'm honestly more inclined to agree with the number of shards killed.

Hey guys!
 
We've been tweaking the world bosses here and there as we work on the upcoming drop. One of the things we're taking a look at is the length of the respawn timers -- they may be a tad long. Stay tuned. ;)
