I wasn't on at the time, but I don't think the timer would've reset unless the whole server (or that particular area) went down.

I know that for some NMs they don't even get reset by maitenanaces (Argus, for example)

NM spawn timers are not persisted externally, (except for a few that are specially programmed), so they will reset when a world server goes down.

However, just because you can't log in doesn't mean the server is physically down. It could be any number of systems. Servers can be "down" without ever being actually reset. So it's a toss-up.

Turns out it wasn't, as he was still in my projected window.

Thanks!

Wait, what? Argus is reset, at least as far as I know.
