Respawn is approximately 3 hours. To trigger the spawn zone in/out with a bard at the right step or relog. This fight is fairly buggy. If you fight right where the Shade spawns you will most of the time only get the zombie adds. Sometimes the other adds charge you though. No pattern to how or why.
Okay so I got got the cracked bone and did turn in. He told me to go gather the relics and what not. I go to Dragon Necropolis and gather the bones. In the mean time another bard came in and dud turn in to shade. and killed the mobs. Well I finsihed gathering my relics and no shade to turn them in to. So I got back to Wakening Lands and return in cracked bone hoping it would re-flag me. It did nothing or appeared to. I head back to dragon necro and still no shade so I wait. So he does not spawn always when you are at that point.

3 days with a 12 hour variance is what most old world spawns are.
Yes he spawns when a bard at that point in the epic zones in. It isn't mentioned in the quest write up but you must hand in the bones to the Lantaric`Dar in WL to be able to spawn this shade in DN. Very annoying if you don't do it and then have to run allll the way over!
