So this rare often spawns of its own accord and immediately starts battling it out with some random NPC. But if you try attacking it, it'll just despawn after a while. Looks like you have no choice but to go through the various quests to craft the lure to stop it from despawning.

Edit: Actually I managed to kill it without using the quest item. I think if you have enough dps, you can just kill him without ever doing any of the associated quests.

Description

Arcana-Monger So'zer is responsible for a spree of thefts throughout Tazavesh that have resulted in the loss of magic relics, wands, and several crates of highly toxic Zo'kita fruit. Informants suggest that So'zer may be compelled to reveal himself if presented with a highly prized arcane relic. Create an item tempting enough to trick this criminal into revealing themselves.
