If you find one rare, you can camp the same rare and receive credit for each kill.
We need respawn timers
Not sure if intended or not but killing rares in future mechagon DOES NOT count towards the quest for some reason, don't waste your time going there.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Welcome to the Resistance
Life in the Rustbolt Resistance is not easy, <name>. But it is yours. We will not order you around or force you to fight. Mechagon is a land of endless opportunities, and you may chase whichever opportunities you see fit.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Operation: Mechagon - The Mechoriginator
My father's madness won't be contained to this island. King Mechagon is creating a massive device capable of reversing the Curse of Flesh across the entirety of Azeroth! Any races forged by the Titans will return to their original state. For us gnomes, that means fully mechanical.
