I have a feeling he might move across the same number of explorable areas, each time, from regent valley to travelers vale was a move of 5/6 areas depending whether you count regent valley or not.

So he may be in North Kryta province by my assumption, probably at the ascalon settlement or the exit to Nebo terrace.

If we take his 3 known appearances into account, it seems that he follows storyline and appears once per region.

So his appearances will probably be be:
Kryta
Maguuna Jungle
Crystal Desert
Southern Shiverpeaks
Ring Of Fire ...
And then probably the same for Factions/NF/Eotn.

I would laugh if he shows up in Dreadnaught's Drift: "Got scammed by a Runner, he left mid-run!"

Just so you know. Linsey Murdock has stated that there are only a small number of material requirements... so you might just have to do PvE to get the gifts.

This is his Dialog from week 1:
Quote:
For years, my nightmares have lingered on this place, the place where I lost my Mary. She meant the world to me, but I have mourned her loss long enough. I'm sure if Mary were here today, she’d no sooner want to see those spiders back in her orchard than she would want to see me imprisoned by grief. In just a few short years, deepest despair shocked my beard and hair with white and almost finished what the Charr started when they destroyed my home, my parents, and my Mary. Now I know that I can't let them win like that. I must live on to keep the memory of my beloved alive and find a new home, find happiness again. There is still much work for me to do in this world.
And so my travels begin again with new purpose: to take Yakkington and I to the far corners of the globe and back again. But before my journey continues I feel the need to ask my love for her blessing and pay tribute to her, though I suppose the only thing fitting would be Red Iris Flowers. A bunch of at least 3 would do, but the only Ascalonian flora collector I know of has moved far to the north. She was so young the last time I saw her! It makes me worry that she won't remember me. Although, she was quite fond of the Professor, even if he did eat all those flowers.... I don't suppose you have any, do you?
Could this be a clue that he's on his way towards the EotN to visit Gwen? I dunno!

Not that silly theory... it was brought up on GWO forums, it's very unlikely. Although when he gets to the EN areas, he could very easily have a dialogue with Gwen. But so far, bringing Gwen has done nothing, so it's just... not... likely...


BTW, wiki's time was a guess due to misinterpreting, it will be PRECISELY 7 days in about 20 minutes I'm told. So if he hasn't moved in 20 minutes, times for moving changes.

(And yes, he is still in Traveler's Vale).

As he seems to be goign in a path, there are three possible directions he can go to. Krtya, Far Shiverpeaks, Southern Shiverpeaks. Most likely locations being Ascalon Settlement, Gwen's Garden, and Temple of Grenth respectively. All are "out of the way" to a degree. And all three are devour of monsters (so far he has been away from the monsters, excluding pop ups).

Would be interest if he is still in the Northern Shiverpeaks. I hope he has a random location in each explorable area, and that he'll eventually return to Ascalon a few times.

Edit: After all, there are hundreds of trophies, many of which don't have collectors!

I said it once I'll say it again, the time posted on wiki was a guess based on an mis-interpretation and by Nicholas' time change in pre-searing. Someone thought it would be the same time, and it hasn't been changed yet. Last month it was about this time that he was found to have moved (supposedly 15 minutes ago last week), so he should be moving shortly.

We really don't know when he moves still. But we'll find out this week.

BTW, still same spot. My guess would be 2:00 Pacific at this rate is when he moves. Unless it's different each week.

This is the post by the guy who found him last week , he moved about a hour before this was posted , that was at 10.56 AM by guru's clock so like i have said numerous times now , we have about 7 hours left to wait IF he moves at the same time as he did last week.

Wellllllllll... his gender is only supposed from his name and the descriptions of him, who's to say what it really is, under those clothes? (*shudder* Actually, that's something I'd rather leave to Anet to tell us, rather than find out myself... :P )

*eagerly awaiting news of his travels and newly sought after items*

No one knows that he was the first one to find him. If he was, please provide absolute, infallible proof. Otherwise, this is a shot in the dark.

Exactly!

I was wondering myself why people would think he should have moved already...

It is not. About an hour before that guy found him, he was still in his old location, which should be proof enough.

Well if you go back to page 10 of this very thread and look you will see that up till then we had been doing the same as everyone is now, speculating on why he hadnt moved yet then suddenly this guy and Slipiknot posted saying they had found him , which they had ,so as far as people using this forum are concerned they were the first to find him, enough proof ?

I actually knew of Nicholas' location at about 10:30 central (which would be your time as well it seems), and it was found out on GWO before then. And I was told Nicholas moved LONG before I logged on at 10:00. Not sure how long is long though, but I'd have to say he probably will be moving at an :00 time. So, at the moment, it's 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10 Central times. Next being in 45 minutes.
