I ran over to the loc posted below and started killing everything, including the mystics. Respawn time is very fast and it took all of 15 minutes to get him to spawn and collect the guts.
I just started killing all the mobs around 1630, 2000 (where Rharzar hangs out). Kill the drakes, basilisks, and lizardmen. It took what seemed like less than an hour and Blackwing just popped right in front of me. Put my tambourine on with Selos Consonant Chain, Fufils Chant, Tuyen Frost, and Tuyen Flame. I was at lvl 47...took about 2 min to kite him to death. Simple.
Like the guy below says, just go to this loc, run around, kill everything, and keep tracking open. Blackwing spawned after around 15 minutes of this. Me and my merc dropped it in around 10 seconds. (I'm level 50.) Easy!
I can confirm that he still pops around 1630, 2000, as previous posters have said. I do not know whether or not you need to kill Rharzar. I did kill him, but it was still a little while before Blackwing popped. I do not think the two are related. I suppose Rharzar could be a PH, so if he pops you might as well kill him. Be warned, though, that Rharzar is significantly tougher than Blackwing. Rharzar conned light blue to my 66 bard, but he was a major undercon. He actually took my bard down to 80% health, and she has max defensive AAs for her level. Rharzar won't be a problem for most people, but if you're lower level then be sure to have your cleric merc out before you whack him.
It took me about an hour of killing before Blackwing popped. I ran around and killed for an hour, then I took a loop around the zone to track and just make sure he wasn't already up somewhere. When I got back to the drake area in 1630, 2000 Blackwing was up.
I do not know how tough he would be for a 46-52 bard, since my bard is 66, but my guess is that any 46 bard in defiant gear with a cleric merc could easily go toe-to-toe with him.

This right here helped me a ton I went there he wasnt up but I just went to this spot and killed everything drakes, basilisks, lizard men and in about 15 mins the next respawn there he was.
Kill everything in the area listed by previous posters, including the Lizardmen. If you kill nothing but drakes, you'll notice that eventually there's nothing around except Lizardmen and Basilisks.
The new location of where the Blackwing spawns is number 10 on the map http://www.eqatlas.com/rathemtnsmap.html. I just killed the drakes around there and he spawned in 5 minutes and didn't have to kill the named Rharzar. So i think its safe to say he is not a placeholder or anything. Was really easy just was hard to find by location so the map should help
I killed, slaughered eveyrthing for like 15minutes, draks, guards, lizards and that named Rhazad guy, blackwing popped, and was just flying behind me waiting to die.
He def spawns in the little cove of draks/bas/lizards/and a tower with 2 guards and 3 badies in a corner..
Had to eliminate drakes and baz for about 2 hours. Then Rarhzar (spelling?) popped. He was Red and scowling so I had a guild buddy wipe him out for me. Blackwing was about an hour later. He was exceedingly easy to a 46 Bard. Used my 3 chants and binding to wear him down then went toe to toe. Felt silly having temp on, as he dropped me to only 98% and he died in less then 3 mins. By the way all epic NPC's have talked to me thus far. The need to be 51 is no more.
Blackwing does spawn and run between pos 1350 pos 1450 and pos 1360 pos2000 as of 9/20/05 got him to spawn in a little under 30mis.. Now i'm off to kill trakanon...

Since the froglok tents they moved his spawn. I found him by killing all the drakes , baslisks , etc and blackwing now paths between +1360, +1450 and +1360, +2000 . So I'd try working over everything around there
ok here is alittle info. just killed the ******* in his tracks -1300, +1550. I killed drakes blah blah blah and he finally popped. took about 1 hour of killing drakes and basilks lizardman ect. I was bored. Im not uber and i went heads up with him. played selos chains of constant, songs of shield, and katta of swords for my procs. he didnt get me below 95%hp. hope you all enjoy and hope it helps.
49th season Redkush Deathsinger of Innorruk on Povar
soloed him at 52. got a lil worried because of what was on EqDiva about the SK birdie, but he never showed. i stood out of range but in sight of the spawn point and just chanted at everything that popped and within 15mins i had him up. i hit selos chorus and then started the chant. fought him pretty much like i fought maligar, chant and back up. i moved him away from that spawn point in case the sk bird was set to spawn there when blackie here dies. when he was dead, i looted and ran like hell to zone. i dont know if raz was up, but i wasn't waiting. oh wll gl all you future composers. i am off to pick a fight with a wurm and big birdie hehe. toodles.
