Maxine Coldstone
FeuerFrei
Quickshot can be captured from Maxine Coldstone in Perdition Rock, am i not wrong?(And she does not spawn 100% right?) So if Harn Coldstone is there..is it a sure thing that Maxine isnt there?
devilru
Im pretty sure that's the deal, if you see Harn Coldstone then Maxine wont be there.
I also noticed that they changed the look of the 'human' bosses, well atleast Harn Coldstone. When I went to capture Obsidian Flesh he looked like a 'Forgotten' (The stone dude with a sword instead of the Bandit looking guys)

Trust me, it was pretty damn hard getting quickshot from maxine. You just gotta camp in one of the spots he patrols through and you'll see him evenutally. Maxine is a huge pain in the ass >_<

lol same here. i've only actually attempted to cap once, but we followed the patrol route back to front... no sign. and its my last primary elite that i need! *sigh* I'm gonna cause her so much pain when i find her...
FeuerFrei
lets do it together Pevil...we'll torture her..mUAahHAhz
Pevil Lihatuh
sounds like a plan... 
mass degen anyone?

She takes 15 times as long as Harn to complete the circuit, because she lays a spirit every five yards. Quickshot is well worth it though.

I think i may have something goin on here
You see...in Perdition Rock...there are 3 ways to get to the Eastern side...the upper path, middle path and lower path....and i think that the route u take matters and affects the spawning of Maxine Coldstone....u see ive tried goin through the middle for like 15 times and Harn always spawns at the end of the middle route...ive tried the upper and lower path...but by eventually comin through the middle path from the front yet again and Harn still spawns at the same place...so maybe.....
If we take the upper or lower path...and go through the middle path from the back....Maxine will spawn....
I dunno....im just making a hypothesis based on what i think is happening...cos wheneva i rush through the middle path..Harn will definitely(100%) be there...
So...anybody knows if the route affects the spawn?

I doubt it. In my experience the spawns are fixed when you enter the map.

All you have to do is find her spirits and then follow them to find her
Former Ruling
It isn't Finding her thats the problem - HE is saying Harn always Spawns instead. Harn and Maxine share the same "spot" - if one is there, the other isn't.
BTW, Harn and Maxine ALWAYS spawn in the same area, and do not start to patrol until you interupt their spawn area, then they'll start walking.
I figured that out when I was using 8 or so Darkstone keys up (a chest always spawns somewhere in that general area). I would use Escape/Storm Chaser to get to that spot and search out the chest, and I ALWAYS saw Harn/Maxine starting their patrol route in that spot.

3 attempts and I got quickshot.
Here's a neat site that gives you MAPS of where to find skills.
http://www.xennon.co.uk/eliteskills/
With maxe/harn coldstone you get to see their patrol path. And yes, one at a time, maxine no harm, harm no maxine.
Can be a lil annoying.

Sorry to ressurect an old post, but the easiest way I've found to locate either Maxine or Harn is to go north through the drider paths from Camp Emberlight, then hug the island perimeter going clockwise. The reason this works is because Maxine and Harn always walk the same path counterclockwise. As a result, you'll meet them somewhere in the middle, usually on the northern half of the island. I found Maxine this way after 2 tries.

You could also take the right path the hydras take, go past the groups of dryders, past a group of golems, and a Coldstone should be right there. However, if you're not quick to get their attention, they'll run off into more dryders and golems, possible a few drakes as well.
DeathDealer
Whenever I go out to cap "quick shot", Maxine never spawns (happens to everyone...I know)...I would say she spawns 40% of the time...I see the ele wanderer guy 3 out of every 5 times I go out in perdition...Just keep looking and remeber...clockwise is your friend (or is it counterclockwise?..dont remember details like that..)....I love quickshot....great skill. When used in conjuction with 2 other specific skills, you throw an arrow downrange every second (seems like it at least)...
EF2NYD
He or she moves counter-clockwise, starting only when you're in range.
Burton2000
The spawn chance is 50/50 i was lucky and get maxine first try.I just went left to the flame spitter type creatures then to the drakes and she was there.Ctrl helped just holding it down to look for her name.

I never tried to cap this skill coz i read somewhere it was'nt worth it.
But maybe i should
jimmy_logic
Oh boy you would be creaming your pants if you capped it right now... its the staple of many ranger damage based skill bars. (I request a slight buff to it for the update :P )

I very much wanted Obsidian Flesh.
So in my case, it was Maxine that spawned more often.
BTW, I think of "Maxine" as being a female name.

Maxine is indeed a pain to capture. My only advice is to fight up to where you would first see her spawn location, and if she does spawn, she will walk counter-clockwise around the island. So just wait for her near the zone at Ember, she will eventually make her way there.
Here's a SS I took after a capturing expedition with my Ranger:

I capped Quick shot on a w/r lol.... Randomly.
Jay the Jake
I was helping guildies the other night cap on Perdition Rock. I noticed that Maxine is the only boss that doesnt stay in a spawn area. the rest stay in their respective spots. We chased Maxine 1/2 across the island. We would see her but we would have to take out a mob first. After taking care of the mob she would be gone. So we would adventure on. Come across her again. Finally I think we eliminated everything but the white mantle, it seems like, before we finally caught up with her alone and got to cap the elite skill.

I just went through Perdition 6 times. Beginning to get boring, but she just won't ever spawn. Always Harn Coldstone (and he's getting punished for it every time). 
Killin_Frenzy
Bah I was looking for Harn and got Maxine four times in a row. >_<
And to top it off Harn doesn't stop to put spirits up so I waited 40mins for him to finish his little tour around the island when it turned out that he had gotten stuck near the drakes.
Ah well Obs flesh was well worth it.

Those two always take off counter clockwise, its a lot easier if you head back the other direction and meet them as they approach you. Otherewise you will end up chasing them thru mobs,, and like the above poster statewd when you clear the mob, they are gone. WIKI has the path they walk and if you just go the opposite direction once they spawn(they have to spawn of course and for this you must get in range of them, or no spawn), so go in the opposite direction rather than trying to follow them, and its a lot easier. Use CTRL so you can see em coming. Took ages to figure this out on my own, but I finally got QS, not that I use it much, and I sure aint creaming my pants, never really been much for FOTW builds, but I dont PVP a lot, probably why, too many people trying to tell you how to play, when most of em suck balls
Solberg the Exiled
It always seems to be the case... Whenever I go out to cap an elite skill, be it obsidian flesh or quickshot or others, the boss that I want never spawns. Murphy's law is quite annoying. But I have always wondered about something...
What in the world is Maxine and Harn doing in Perdition Rocks, Isn't it suppose to the most inhospitable place in tyria? You know...with the huge mobs of mahgo hydras and stuff. The fact that they are in perdition rocks never made much sense to me...
