As of 9.1/Chromie Time:

You HAVE to stand at the end of the pier for Blubbergut to spawn. It will NEVER spawn if you're in the air or in the water.

In other words, there's an invisible trigger that spawns Blubbergut and if you don't step in that area it doesn't spawn. I think the game assumes you will drop into the water running on the ground from the pier, but in Chromie Time you can go there flying and drop directly from the air to the water and that will NOT make it spawn.

As you will most likely be completely alone in the "Chromie Time Desolace instance" it's extremely unlikely that Blubbergut is already spawned because if another player stood at the end of the pier before you got there they most likely already killed it

I was about ready to scream doing this just now. I got on the pier, he spawns, I jump in and begin to kill. A few seconds in, Blubbergut just...dies, and I get no quest credit. Tried again, same thing, and a few more times. Same.

On the next try I happen to barely notice a projectile before it dies, so I figure its some cross-faction d-baggery going on. Log out, come back 10 mins later, try again same thing.

Then I notice a [npc=51841] on the pier.

With a bow.

He "helps" you since you're being "attacked".

So, don't tap Blubbergut til you're out of the guard's range.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Cleansing Our CrevasseDesolace · Level 10-30

    I recognize this foul creation. It's a terrible disease that kills almost instantly, and in a most violent manner. Loathe as I am to employ such devices, I fear we have no choice here. As you of course know, the naga remain a serious threat to the region.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Fish in a BucketDesolace · Level 10-30

    I'll reward anyone who makes my life a bit easier... I enjoy doing as little as possible, mon! Below the docks here in Shadowprey Village, I've many shellfish traps. If you're kind enough to do my work and collect me my shellfish, then I'll reward you with something you want... get my drift mon?
