Drov or Tarlna, you can't do both per week. They share a loot lockout period. So chose one per week and stick with him. I'm not sure when they spawn these days.

First week both had short spawn timers and they could both be up at the same time. Hotfix changed that. Only one can be available in the world at a time.

Drov and Tarlna are shared. If one is up the other will not.
You only get credit for one per week.

Also think that only one spawns per day. I was trying to get both of them on the same day for the achievement but only Drov kept respawning. Even server hopped and none of them had Tarlna.

Respawn is only about 15 min.
