Question: Does the Calf or Lioness PH respawn if Quillmane is up?

I got my cloak awhile ago camping the calf, and I don't think the calf respawned while Quillmane was up. However, a friend wanted to camp Quillmane last night and he was under the impression that you need two people to do it, one to kill the PH and one to track Quillmane, because the calf does respawn even if Quillmane and the Lioness are both up. Asking around we received three conflicting responses:

1) Yes, the calf PH will always respawn even if Quillmane and the loiness are up.

2) No, once Quillmane spawns from killing the calf PH (and the lioness PH is still up), the calf PH will not respawn.

3) The calf PH will skip a spawn when Quillmane pops, but then respawn at the normal spot ~90 secs after Quillmanes spawn time.

My money is on #2, but I decided to crowd source the official answer.

1, just aggro the calf but wait to kill it until QM is dead.

Spawn points are random now? Is this guide worthless now?

Spawn points of what? Quillmane or the PHs?

QM still has the same 3 spawn points, but the elephant calf placeholder is now random.

[zanderklocke]

Lioness has always been random. Since when is calf random? There a link to this information?

Yeah this wasn't classic at all

But at least now you know which mob is the PH rather than clearing all of karana with a mage pet

It may have been the case on live that any mob had a chance of triggering a quill mane spawn, albeit a very low one

Can't say for sure! But quill popping at all was rare as shit compared to here (obviously with this method)
