Anyone have a rough guess on his spawn time? he just spawned today on Darkspear server and I was just a few seconds away from taming him and some tauren hunter came down and killed me. I never felt so pissed off before but there isn't much to do but get over it, I was playing on a pvp server anyway....

Today I was just running my routes looking for Loque or King Krush in Sholazar Basin and a random person asked for help killing the litch guy in the cave near Loque spawn point so I figured why not.

First of all I am sorry if this is the wrong place to ask this but I was wondering, do I have to be next to the spirit beast for npc scanner to go off or do I just have to be within that map?
