It was about a year or two ago when I asked the Guides about time to engage a camp point (Hadden / Fishbone Earring) when someone was camping there, but had went afk and I was next in line.
They said wait for the camper to have a "reasonable amount of time to engage".
I said, "is that like 5 minutes or so?"
They said (paraphrasing - don't have the exact log): "No, more like 30 seconds".
So, more time than having to spam an attack as the NPC spawns and see who has the lowest ping, but not enough time to expect to be able to afk / tab in and out checking on the spawn every 10 minutes.
No idea if it was a Guide that's still around these days though (and things change all the time).
