Put a druid at the safespot to track there, then stay there RIGHT after a patch for 3 days, you will see him when hes up.
He will spawn after serverdown in 1-3 days, after that, he spawns in 7-9 days untill next patch.
If you want him you need people who can mobolize fast to kill though [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Just out of era but the behavior he's describing matches up with all other evidence for 7 day spawns

My original post with the customer service quote of 20% variance is what I've tried to tie everything else into. When looking at history it's important to study your sources just as much as the events they recount!

So here is the last update to that poster's magelo for "Jaka" on Sol Ro. More likely that not tracking and leading Naggy/Vox raids was the pinnacle of his EQ journey and meant a lot. For the day and the man I can easily imagine him spending a few hours on hold getting an answer from a company rep.
I think we can agree that there was variance of spawns over 12 hours. For seven days spawns we have from the developer that it was +/- 20 percent. Going forward from that there's a lot to suggest that what we have right now is vastly lower than classic times.
