Just got this guy to spawn after about 8 hours of camping. He did NOT spawn on the island, instead he was across on the next island, the closest malarian to the little island. After 8 hours of camping and killing every malarian I can tell you every type of malarian whether it be gall or pest or diseased or the other rare metamo will pop in any spot. Kill them all. I cleared the long bank of them as well as the island and saw every kind pop everywhere, and I am sure the crysalis will pop anywhere as it did for me.
So doing shaman pre-quest got to this point and man what a pain sitting on island and killin and killing and killing and killing , come on Sony this is supposed to be a means for a shorter way to get a 1.5 started thinking that just doing the whole 1.0 would be faster.....
Well I think only 1 malarian gall is the Place Holder! We camped the island on the map that is under the text "Flies and Larva" (I think the text said Larva From memory)
this is true, after killing this ph several times (prolly around 20 times) the crysalis spawned. None of the others ever spawned it on any occasion (helped two other shamans as well on this part)
Before I actually got the quest I spent 6 hours here one day waiting for it to spawn, it never did. After doing more of the quest and actually getting to this point in the quest I killed a PH then the next spawn was it. I don't know if I was lucky or that it has some kind of invis flag on it.
like does this thing ever pop, been here 4 days now and still no sign of it, killed umpteen hundreds of phers, ty sony 4 making shortcuts so hard to achieve
I swear, this thing refuses to spawn for me. been gettting groups together because of the amount of adds around him, and then killing for like, 2 hours at a time before we just quit. I have done stuff like this about 16 times, and still no "a malarian crysalis". Im on the Cazic-Thule server, talk to Nicknick if your VERY patient and interested in helping.

15 min respawn - we got the the a malarian crysalis on the 3rd repop. (Dec 17,2005) This is the island my fellow sham said that he got it to pop and and he hunted the Island to the north of it that also has a malarian gall forever and it never poped for him.
I have had the same dificulties. a gorup of friends. 2 shamans a mage a Bard and a bst all go to gether and helped out for 5 hours. never spawned. bard even got tired and grabbed every fly around gall or not and killed them and it still didn't spawn. kinda sad how the other 3 components can be goteen in a days time adn this one takes 12hrs+ but hopefully it has a spawn table of its own and pops sometime. go in, eat it alive, loot and leave =) "definatly easier with other epic aquired"
