He was renamed at some point.

Pending update, he will be known as Drosco Finlayer.

Right now, there is a_zombie in there that should drop and say the same things Drosco should.

According to this map, Drosco should be there, and under the name Drosco... I have yet to find a_zombie anywhere in that zone.

It shows the area in which you might find him. That is correct. That is where he should appear here as well. The same link in the OP has people discussing how you might spawn him.

Until next update, you can find him by the name a_zombie. After the update, he will be called Drosco_Finlayer.

I was down to kill Drosco for the thunderstaff. He drops the Tattered Note (Commen drop) and Order of Thunder (Rare drop) But he drops it all the time I killed him.

Also I rember back in the good old days he was worndring around the place. he have 3 place holder Cube, Rat and zombi.

If you look at qeynoscatacombsmap map he will roamer from the platform just above and to the left (loc 0, 250) of 13, and makes his way to 7 where he will pause for a bit (30 - 60 second) and the make his way to nr. 6, were the two dawf mercenaries are.
At place 7 he wil always be Drasco so the good players can hand in the note to him where we will reply "Rele .... ase ... me ... from ... this ... tor ...ment.. ARGH!!" and so on.

And as a side note. There is a other cube roaming from 7 - 6. It is there now np there, but it takes the short route true walls :-)

How rare is the Order of Thunder, I will be starting my 3rd day of camping him, hopefully with a sucsessful drop. He has spawned about 6-8 times in a total of about 14-16 hours of being there and not currently produced the goods.

3rd day lucky; he dropped the Order of Thunder. Some very twisted dev's must of put this quest into the game! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Just so those of interest are aware, not only can he spawn and stand around in that little room around the corner from the pair of mercenaries, but he wanders, too. Caught me as I pulled myself up to the mercenary area from the water and got me good.

Used to be called "a zombie," but I'm glad to see his true moniker is intact on P99!

Haha! I'm sorry, Tyde already mentioned Drosco's wandering path.

/check all prior posts from now on

Also, now that I think of it, I've seen Cubert pop his head up in the same pathing area as well. He'll appear for a short while, then vanish. Not sure if it's just a glitch or if he's got a strange sporadic appearance in the cube/Drosco/beggar spawn list.
