Nicholas the Traveler - Location Discussion (Updated Mondays)
Silmar Alech
What probably happened is, that the locations for the new cycle have simply been shuffled. So we probably still know his location in a given explorable area, but the explorable area is unknown again and the hunt has begun for a second cycle.
epervier
OK people, Start combing the world. we have 235 explorable areas to cover in less than a week. So start posting where he isn't so we don't double up on our search. Oh and pics of what you explored would be nice.
Thanks,
Thanks,

On main wiki page it says he collects 3 Avicara scalps in Mineral Springs. Can somebody check?
Habacalva Zann Esu

Just saw the same, no map though on wiki.

Would make it location nr.12 on the original list, and I guess if it's so we can confirm that locations are indeed randomized this time around.
Da Kenster
If this is true, I just traded those in at Halloween, doh!
Time to break out the IDS run build and check, or maybe I'll just bring heroes to kill for some scalps.

Confirmed location.

^ Beat me to it.
Now I'm curious if the gifts contain new items...
Edit: So I'm assuming he'll be visiting the same locations as previously, just in a different order now.
Edit Again: Same old junk for me, tons of stones

[nostalgia] I had only just started playing when Nick debuted, so I didn't know what the heck was going on. Mineral Springs/Avicara Scalps was my first experience with Nick and farming. I actually went out to Mineral Springs and killed stuff with my bow-wielding ranger and a full party of heroes. It took forever! Things will certainly be different this time around! [/nostalgia]
I don't think I'll be shedding my "in case Nick wants this" collection just yet. The thought occurred to me that they could totally throw us a whammy and do repeat items/shuffled zones for a couple weeks then ask for something new the next. Until I see a whole month or so of repeats, I'm probably still going to hoard.

Here's me hoping he would spawn in a different place for each player 
wilebill
So, I did all that and Camptown Races for prizes: doodah doodah
Not a happy camper. Why not repeat. Why the mysterious post. What is mysterious about disappointing the majority of Nick fans?

I guess I'll never get to use my warden horns. :'(

there is nothing saying that he is just going to ask for the same trophies---just different times and places (though....)....I would wait a few weeks before dumping those extra -not asked for trophies--and if he asks for the same stuff at the same place 3 or 4 times...then I would say, yep, ditch the other stuff.....
and yeah, still wondering why the cryptic silly update for just nic--without adding anything new, just restarting him.

Perhaps he has something new and rare..
That could explain why nothing seems different yet.. hopefully someone will come along soon and say that they got an exciting new gift...

Not at The Breach today, so likely randomized unless they've thrown in additional wrinkles.
* Considering the gifts stack with the old ones, not considering it likely they're putting in new items.

Hmm found him while doing my cart. In poisened outcrops looking for 2 margonite masks per gift. He's almost at the top of the map.
June Bug
Yeah, I remember last time he was there. Farming masks is easy in the Nundu Bay mission. Just don't trigger the waves of incoming margos, but just run around and farm the stationary ones.
davehall
Also confirmed...
wilebill
Nicholas is sure squirreled away fancy this time. Thought I had Margonite Masks, but could not find them. Had already gathered 3 more outside of Gate of Secrets before I remembered where I had stashed over 100. Running the Margonites outside Gate of Secrets with a full party will net 10 masks fairly quickly and Lightbearer points besides.
rotaulave
Im at Hallowed Point and i dont see him. i dont have any quest active only one from Factions that i completed and not rewarded .
Da Kenster
Been busy chopping up Luchadores, zombies and Deckers while listening to "You're the Best" from Karate Kid in Saints Row III today to pay attention, so glad I have these in stock.
Edit: Same old, same old. Ah well, next week we'll start hoping again

cosyfiep
yeah I had one of those quests, but I had started from the lair of the forgotten (doing some carto) so I had killed just about everything along the way---so I just finished the quest, hit the exit on the west side...and re-entered, had to kill a few more things, but easy enough...and then nic was there.
rotaulave
Yep did quest then ran back zoned out not far from there then ran to Nick and he was there. Ty all for your help

Alcazia Tangle, 2 Quetzal Crest - same location & item as last time.
ZV today includes a colony of Quetzal

wilebill
Yep, come out of the right hand gate of Tarnished Haven fight one group and run up to Nick. I already had plenty of Quetzal Crests in storage. Big prize was 10 mysterious summons. Now have 372. In HM they tend to die quick, but add some color and a bit of humor to what you're doing.
CharrGirl
Somebody found Nick's hiding place yet?:P
June Bug
People on Wiki discussion page says Wajjun Bazaar, 3 plague idols. Haven't double checked that, but I see people selling idols in Marketplace.
CharrGirl
Yeah its Idols. Any good place to farm, possibly with SoS?
davehall
Tom Swift
Cantha Courier Crisis
Da Kenster
Yeah, I get a lot of them in Cantha Courier Crisis, plus you get to Falken punch people
davehall
Nice little 10-12 minute WoC Plague Idol farming area in Sunjiang District if you have the Cleansing the Sunjiang District quest active and unable to do Cantha Courier Crisis nor able to farm the Am Fah in Wajjun Bazaar. Any sprite spamming build or other farming build should do. (Discovered I didn't need to bring any heals as Initiate Zei Ri will heal/cure you.)
