I just tried to do this quest. From triggered spawn (Sergeant Daelione's death) to depop, she lasted literally only 4 minutes. That was not enough time for me to unlock the corpse, loot the implant, and run to her. She despawned in front of me.
This would have absolutely been a rage inducing moment back in the day, but I cannot find any posts warning about this.
Not only that, it appears, based on these comments in ZAM, that Vekis was a notorious noob destroyer. This would indicate that she was up fairly often, and I doubt tons of people were doing the Trooper BP.
I think this means a couple things.
1. Her despawn timer is waaaaay too short here. There is just no way it's supposed to be 4 mins.
2. She isn't only a triggered mob OR Sergeant Daelione's death triggers her spawn if a mob does it (This is a common fate for him).
