Hey guys.
I will bet money this is not a bug, just think it thru.
Would it make sense for this NPC to show up to anyone that zoned into a raid zone? If that were true the first guild to clear to him could then just sell access to their instance to everyone else on the server. Or in general access to this NPC would be sold by raid guilds.
Or, would it make since for the first raid to kill him to instantly get 24 apprentices if you want to control the speed at which they enter the game? Or heck, imagine if they could bring all their alts as well?
I think it may be as simple as a flag for the zone awarded at random when the timer is created. Some can get the quest, some can not. It will take time for everyone who raids to get one.
Until SoE confirms it as a bug, I suspect it is not, for what to me are justifiable reasons not to make him available to everyone instantly.
Except to complete the quest you have to get a drop off of Dozekar and there is only one per chest (perhaps there can be more?) so no matter how many people can see him only one is getting the apprentice so there is no need to limit who can see the quest giver.
