Forgot about that completely. 5 golden zcoins is actually easy to get compared to raising your balth cap, but still 50 hours of grind if it takes an hour to get a silver zcoin. Seems pve guys have a rougher go of it either way.

It doesnt take an hour to get a silver coin. Usually the mission and bounty give you around 150 bronze coins. That usually takes anywhere from a hour and a half to 30 mins. So its more like a silver coin in 30 mins. Thats still a lot of time spent for 5 gold coins.

I don't think hes moved yet, he's overdue since last week he moved about 30 minutes ago.
Id go check myself, but the lagg is too unbearable for me atm, unless someone could tell me im wrong, and he's moved?

He moved at 8pm EST last week so it is a good bet he has moved already. I'd be looking for him myself, but I am at work.

He is gone, actually.
To where, I don't know.. yet.

Edit:
Sorry, false alarm - he's still there. He was never very punctual, was he?

Let the search begin then i guess,
My guess would be around the north kryta/griffon's mouth area, since he's headed that way, or maybe further into kryta? I don't think he'll be in any of the other continents at this stage.

i would assume that the earliest he would move now would be once the pacific time anet employees get to work. 9:00am pst? + a few minutes for drinking coffee , shooting the breeze and then realizing he didnt auto-move like they had planned.

If someone at Anet (Linsey :P) is reading this thread, they must be *grining* .

Anticipation is the name of the game (sad some exploit it to make easy money).

Looking forward to following Nicholas's travelling tales!

Anyway I just rezoned to check if he was there and yup he is still there.
IMO you would have to rezone to see him OR Not and not just stay and watch him
and really thats kinda creepy O.o

I think that would be the case, since it's the same when there's a new build, if you stay logged in for a few minutes nothing around changes. I don't know if you stay hours, cause I've never done that. But yeah, I guess rezoning to see if he's moved is best move.

I'll just read and let you guys do the work, xD.

Augh WHYYYYY? Why must he spawn at 9 in the morning? Too late for me to look him up on Guru before school, but so early that by the time I get home from school all the mats are gone...
It may be a collectable drop he wants this time, not a mat.

We'll see. I've been wondering if the collectables he takes are going to be ones that don't have a collector, or that are only collected by the Chefs at Canthan New Year. If that's true, are there any collectorless drops in Kryta?

And yeah, I stocked up on all mats that were <200g, since I think ANet is probably choosing low-value items in an effort to drain the surplus. I hope it's silk... I'll make bank.

I agree, my guess would be an item that reminds him of someone that died during the searing? Im guessing this since the past 2 items have been reminders of his past.

~ Wasn't Mary Malone (from presearing) his beloved?

I hope its Steel

BUT, it doesnt matter what we hope because it is going to be Feathered Caromi Scalps anyways. I can just feel it. And he will be in the middle of Scoundrels Rise, just because that area is a pain in the arse.

Ok, it is time now to stop checking this thread and go there check were he is.

I'll give an imaginary reward of 100k+100e or a real Mursat token to the one that gets the location.

I'll go check Kryta myself. I think he'll be around that floating castle.

Personally, I'm just counting on him always being near a portal between two explorable areas. That would rule out Galrath's castle. If you think he'll be in Kryta, just check all the portals between zones and you're likely to find him.

About 15k.

Given one minute is worth about 100g, one aged ale is three minutes, so is therefore 300g. 50 uses in a Keg means 50 × 300g = 15,000g (or 15 platinum).

Everyone is hoping that he's collecting something they can buy out and resell at higher prices. Well, that's the cynical view anyways. I'm sure plenty more are just interested in finding out as soon as he changes ^^

I really hope it's totally random what he requests. Seeing him ask for Sapphires, Rubies, or Ecto would be pretty hilarious.

Since my other post was deleted by an overzealous mod...I never said he'd only ask for mats. My post wasn't even meant to be taken seriously.
