Ladies and gentlemen, feast your eyes on these feats of prestidigitation!

How do you unlock him as a follower? He isn't showing a quest for me.

Comentario de Altorax

Might want to add his second ability to the tooltip:

'Hat-Trick: Chance to return from a mission with a random reward from inside the magic hat!'

No idea what sort of reward we'll receive as of yet though.
EDIT: Just levelled him up to green and unlocked the Hat Trick ability. Received Pata de conejo de la suerte which is pretty dope. Received a piece of gray vendor trash Conejo desafortunado from his second mission. Appears to be a 50/50 chance to receive one of the two.

Picked up the quest to unlock this follower today (NA realm). The quest is available in front of the mission board in the Mage hall.

The questline took only about five minutes to complete.

In the end you receive both the follower and a toy.

Regarding The Great Akazamzarak as a combat ally:
His two primary abilities are : Carta cargada and ¡Conejo explosivo!
Carta cargada is a fast casting spammable single target damage spell. It was hitting for 90k non crit with a 1 second cast time
¡Conejo explosivo! is TGA's AoE spell it hits for 200k non crit, but has a ~10 sec cooldown and a longer 3 second cast time

When ordered to fall back he will periodically appear to cast ¡Elige una carta! which is a 4 second channel in which TGA pulses for short ranged AoE. The radius is small but the damage is terrific, easily killing the mobs I was testing on. Each individual hit was for 90k non-crit but it is able to hit each enemy over 40+ times for total dmg of 4mil+ per target after crits. I had some issues with the ability not spawning in an ideal location to hit all the enemies i was fighting, but that is common with most combat allies. The minimum cooldown on Pick A Card appears to be ~90 seconds, although I've also had it take longer for unknown reasons. Despite the cooldown, and unreliability of controlling when/where he appears this is definitely his best ability and his recommend usage.

His cast times and damage are affected by player gear and the numbers above reflect an 898 Arcane Mage's results.

Ultimately the question is how does he compare to other mage combat allies, especially the new hotness Aethas Atracasol. I think as an active combat ally TGA will do dmg more consistently with his fewer abilities, and faster cast times, but even so his dmg is pretty bad. Aethas on the other hand will spend a lot of time doing nothing as stuff dies before he lands a cast, but his Atracador de llamas is miles ahead of anything TGA can do when it gets a good hit. On the other hand when ordered to fall back support. Aethas will do nothing if the initial target of his Atracasol dies, where as TGA's ¡Elige una carta! will pulse dmg regardless of the circumstances ( except nobody being nearby), and as a result TGA will do more dmg more consistently as support, and his damage under optimal circumstances is higher than Aethas's. Note that the support abilities have significant hidden cooldowns, and can be difficult to trigger when you want them.

At the end of the day the decision may come down to which one you'd prefer to have running missions instead of protecting you. Aethas doesn't counter hazards and TGA suffer's because the other spell counter champions are quite good. In the end I Like Aethas as a Meatball esque champion more than I like TGA for missions so I recommend TGA for a Mage's combat ally used in the "support" role. A Combat Ally should have limited impact on your success in the open world, so don't feel like there's a "wrong" answer here. Ultimately your combat ally is there to generate you gold,resources, or AP while world questing, and its combat effectiveness is secondary.

Other notes: TGA rides a swanky carpet around both when flying and on the ground, but since you should have ordered him to fall back you won't see it.

Comentario de Uroon

The solution to unlocking him seems to be: upgrade class hall to 7 followers and then the quest appears next reset. The quest appeared for me today with the EU reset, after having upgraded to 7 in the previous week.

Comentario de DebbiD

I chose Guardians of the Kirin Tor as my tier 7 order advancement, and he was in my class hall today offering me the quest Quien lo encuentra se lo queda. My tier 8 order advancement was halfway through its research. Based on my experience and that of Uroon, who also posted today, it seems you can pick either tier 7 option and he will appear.

Comentario de Boxofbeer

Before you be able up recruit this bro, you have to earn Campeones del Ocaso de la Legión and recruit Aethas Atracasol.
After weekly reset you'll find El Gran Akazamzarak in the class hall next to mission map.

This is a full quest chain below.
