So sitting in Ul'dah talking about random ways it might be spawned (spoilers: none worked) for 9+ hrs (and counting, still there).
I have yet to see the Recruiter, as I haven't yesterday either (between 15.00 and 21.00 GMT +2).
This is cruelty...

The only thing I found out that it spawned around midnight (GMT+2) on my world (Omega) and well, nothing anymore after... That is if I go from what people are shouting here, I have not seen the recruiter between start and 21.00 (GMT+2). People are also claiming GM's told them it was working as intended and spawntimers are indeed over 9 hrs...

For someone playing for this long and looking forward to this event in particular it makes me sad, how is this working as intended...
