This is a pretty simple question.. however it seems to be actually quite debated. I use to think respawn times were like an hour... and then later on I thought an hour and a half. But I'm starting to notice that 2 hours has passed and still no respawns in 5 man instances.
There must be a definitive answer for 5 man instances. Anyone know what it is?

I'm not sure if there's a definitive answer but a bit of evidence that tells me they're not all on the same timers was that in patch 1.12:
1) Only ZF timers were changed
2) Only specific mob timers were changed
3) They changed from 30 mins to 2 hours.
So I'd suggest that overall there are many instances and many mobs within those instances with different timers put on them (I think the dude that drops the piccolo in strat has a 10 min timer), ranging from 10 mins to 2 hours. The bosses don't respawn until reset, of course.

depends on the instance and the mob, there is no definitive answer
