The Hidden Forest

I have been working on the explorer's badge in Natimbi and have come to a dead end for the past couple hours searching for this supposed massive water creature that the "shilskin" worship. The High Priest is easy to find but I have searched the entire ocean and even waited a couple hours watching the little pond next to their camp and still no spawn. I have also kept an eye on #bot track rare and nothing new has appeared. Am I just blind?

spawns at that little pond. Think respawn time is the issue, as it is abnormally long for the server.

it is definitely longer than 3 hour re-spawn but maybe I can catch it this morning

It's 1 hour.

Been broken for a while now. Me and friends spent days in this zone, killed Vimidin and the High Priest numerous times, even parked an alt there to watch for him. Gave up and went to a new zone.

Isn't vimidon the crab guy down by the little pond?

That's the one you kill, you kill him and he splits and splits again, each split drops the quest piece. Take that plus item from priest and old badge and turn in.

Done it I think for 4 or 5 characters since this was posted.

Vimidon is not a crab, it is a named lobster
