Does the same apply to the swords getting toe pouch, If I didn't turn one in?

I can also confirm that you can MQ the Robe of the Kedge and do all the robes turn-ins for the Quill without doing the swords stuff first. My husband (who had the Kedge robe) got there first and killed the Brigand PH since it aggroed him. I saw the Brigand's body when I got there 30 seconds later and he's lucky I love him.... That was about 11am game time. Vilnius didn't spawn that night, but did spawn at 2am the next night (as mentioned in a post down the page a bit).
I can confirm you dont need to do the swords first. I just logged on, Vilnius popped 2 mins later and I handed him the 4 robes, didnt even Hail and got the quill.
Vilnius the Small says ' YourName, just because I am short don't mean I can't bounce your Vah Shir rump all over these hills. Now, do you have something for me, or are you just in search of a rump bouncing?'
You say, 'I am in search of a rump bouncing'
Vilnius the Small says 'My pleasure to oblige you then. Shall I start on the left side or the right side?'
Vilnius the Small tries to pierce YOU, but misses!
No faction hits for killing him.

My question is: what quest is the part he says after the turn in
Vilnius the Small says 'You do good work, Roggue. Here is another trinket for your trouble, you should be able to make use of it. Malta still hasn't made it back yet, and I have one more order to fill, if you're willing.This one should be easy. My sword collector has decided he wants a rapiers now, of all things. He has asked for an Eyerazzia, a Martune Rapier, a Burning Rapier and a well balanced rapier
Wrong!! This is to get the Stanos Pouch for the turn in to Stanos. If you turned in the Pouch after receiving it from Malka, then you need to do this part to get it back. If, like most of us, you did NOT give him the pouch, then you don't need to do this quest. Most Rogues don't hand him the pouch, figuring they'll get the Daggers from the General in Kith and Renux in Steam.
i too tried to MQ this, turned in the kedge robe first with my necro, rogue tried to hand in next and Vilnius would not accept any robes and just gave them back. nice waste of time camping for kedge robe for npc to just keep it!
Ok is this part of the epic no longer MQable? been away a while. he took the kedge robe from the person who had and now wont take any of the others from the rogue
First camp I found with Brigand in it is loc +896.40,-11577.88,+15.29, then lo and behold a Hill Giant came by and wiped all including the Brigand?? Heres the photo
175, -6700 is where Vilinus stands at the top of the hill. the bandits that you have to kill are in the tents below his spawn point. they were all gray to a lvl 51 rogue.
Not a flame. I think what this guy is saying is that he killed Vilnius some time past, before he knew Vilinius was a Quest NPC, and just to be informative, wanted to register what the NPC had on him. Nevertheless -
Vilnius is a Epic Quest NPC, needed for turn-ins. Please be considerate, and don't kill...
I think this guy's PH is a brigand when it's ontop of the hill near the bandit camp..killed by accident (sigh) and waited for it to respawn...took about 2 hours give or take maybe about 15 mins for one to show, but it was in the camp, so I decided to kill it again and wait. After about maybe 10 or 15 minutes a bunch of other brigands spawned in the camp really close to the same time (about 3 or 4 other brigands spawned in the bandit camp) ...killed them out of frustration...and their little bandit friends too...and one spawned on top of the hill! He spawned on the hill about 1pm gametime and despawned at around 8pm...
...and at about 9pm game time, Vilnius The Small spawned =) *shrugs* ok a little rambling-like.. but hope that might help someone out there..lol. Oh yeah, and when I did my turn in for the quill he despawned...and immediately respawned again. (I think that might've just been luck)

You aren't supposed to kill anything. The brigand will despawn and he will spawn there. He makes for a nice DC pet for enchanters too that can solo the enchanter epic 1.0 rogue in the hills.
So far two people have killed his PH, both unknowingly and one being my Kedge MQ buddy. Tearing my hair out here at the prospect of not getting my friend epic'ed because people are too uneducated about the mobs they kill. Please, if you're reading this and your friends go to WK anytime soon for ANY REASON, LET THEM KNOW NOT TO KILL THE BRIGAND.

Well, this is WAY late to help you, most likely, but maybe others can use the info...
I 'believe' he is on Circle of Unseen Hands faction, if memory serves. The easy way to raise this is by doing the "Rogue Errands" quest. When you receive the bent card from Knargon, just repeat the phrase to him and (unless it's been fixed) he'll give you another card. Fill your bags with cards, then do the next step to hand them in. Once you hand in all cards, go back and get more.... rinse and repeat to get lots of easy faction.
As mentioned below, he will spawn after his PH despawns. But, if his PH is not at the top of the hill -- you may be in for a LONG wait. Some recommend wiping the nearby bandit camp to help with the PH respawn -- but this did not help me.
After waiting quite a long time, Vilnius actually spawned without the PH ever spawning. And Vilnius spawned at 2am rather than his normal time. If PH is not there -- Vilnius's spawn will be very sporatic. Good luck!
Ouch, 59 ranger here. A 56 enchanter and I were fooling around with the ogres neaby when this chap appeared. I hailed him and he gave me some lip about how he may be short but he could teach me a lesson if I screwed with him. Ok, a challenge!! So I started laying into him (unbuffed too) and after 5 seconds I could see that I should have heeded his warning. The enchanter immediately got aggro trying to slow him and then got low hp aggro and died. By this time about 90 seconds had gone by, he was at 61% and I was quickly dropping below 40%. He hit for over 100 at times and also backstabbed for 148 multiple times while I was dancing around trying to regain aggro/heal the enchanter. I decided to run for the Qeynos Hills zoneline since a trip to my bind point was not part of that days' schedule. After the enchanter's corpse run we stuck around his hill for over 1 full game day but he never repopped. We also killed everything in sight while waiting. Maybe that messed up ph's or spawn times, dunno. Anyways... if I can take him to 60% unbuffed, then with a buffed enchanter and the tiniest bit of preparation, he is as good as dead. Next time we go after this backstabbing, pursesnatching, thieving, deviously two-faced rogue, I will buff myself to the teeth and have the enchanter runed and buffed. He will die again and again. Never again will he and I exist in the same zone without him going down. He is now on my official Shyt List, my list of KOS mobs.
At around 175, -6700 is a bandit camp with tents.On top of the hill that the camp is on is where Vilnius the small spawns. There is a brigand as a ph, but i didn't kill the brigand. At 8pm game time the ph despawned, and a few minutes later Vilnius spawned. If you say rump bouncing he will attack you.
I bumped into him on the way to Halas with my 54 barbarian warrior ~ he conned dark blue to me I did'nt know he was an epic mob, and thought what the hell! engaged my offensive disc and laid into him! Whelp as you'd expect he gave me 30secs of a whooping before I ran for it! I hit him for 171 - 238 - 110 - 183 and his health had'nt moved hehe by this time my health was 50%, think he is a static mob that does'nt summon because I panned around views as I ran and could'nt see him following me.

As said by Iteck, loc is 175, -6700 up of the hill near bandit camp. If he's not up, it's because it's not the time for him to pop, and "a brigand" (not "a bandit") is here. Don't kill the brigand, and wait 8pm. At 8pm, the Brigand depop. at 10pm, Vilnius the Small pop. dunno exactly at what time he depop, but well.. we don't care :)
Trying to spawn him today by killing PH. A brigand was up first, NP 3 hits and dead. 2 bandit druids come running through his spawn point and stop, go somewhere else, then come back again. So i figure well maybe they are PH as well.Atk one and WTF... Hit it , hit it, hit it. Whats going on here? Finally kill it, added up the dmg i did to ONE of them mind you, 9609 dmg!!! Yes i did sit here and add up all my hits. His buddy running with him was the same way.Has this happend to anyone else? Can anyone explain? Anyone know another way to spawn Him?
I have no idea, but I have had three encounters with druid bandits in the past week and have hit them repeatedly and have been wondering if their damage counters were broken. They con green but their hit points are really buffed. Wonder what is the deal.
the left window's text is cut off a little, but he says something like "i may be small, but i could bounce your rump all over this mountain. are you here to help..."
Apparently from other posts he's very magic resistant. So could a group of melees take him? Does he drop the Cazic Quill and Jagged diamond dagger that you get the quests from him for? The cazic quill may or may not drop from general in kith so I just wondered if you could just kill this dude for the quill, because the quest appears to be a pain.
I've tried to kill him today without luck... He conned yellow to me at level 45, I've opened with a resistance debuffer, then snared him, feared him, STR debuffed him, DoT'ed him with 5 DoTs - none of my spells got resisted - and my Pet chased him from the back. Once my fear wore off he was running back to his spawn point. He did not attack my Pet though my Pet chased him like mad. He also lost barely 2-3% HP and once my Dot's went off he regenerated back to 100%, but my Pet was still chasing on him. I casted another fear, but he resisted and all other spells I recasted got resisted too. Seems he has not only a high MR but also a superious regen (adding the damage my DoTs did I would get a damage of 2175 !!)
Is he bugged or is his regen really that superior?
#Anonymous,
Posted:Mar 28 2002 at 12:08 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) this is so cool you are so cool i am so cool we all are so dang cool that we are to cool, we need to become less cool so we don't destroy the worlds with our coolness,
It's actually quite funny. I waited for him to show so I could get the Cazic Quill, and 'hailed' him when he popped. He asked if I had business with him or if I was "in need of a rump bouncing"... Well, being the sarcastic type, I said "I am in need of a rump bouncing". His response was to start stabbing away at me! LOL. I ran off the hill and he walked away, so I camped and came back, handed in the robes, and got my Quill.
Just wanted to say that obviously Verant has a sense of humor =~)
I seen him last night, he con'd blue to me at lvl 52... I hit him with snare and he didn't do anything or come after me. So I hit him with snare again, lol, and still nothing. I hit him with root and he rooted. Then I hit him with Starfire (612dd) Didn't even mark him... (he resisted Ice twice) I kept hitting him with Starfire but no scratch... When he came unrooted, he came after me but not very far. I ran a little ways and turned around, he wasn't there. Went back to where I found him and he was back in place, till I got to close. (I lived thank Sow, lol) I don't know if he has a regen or what... He does hit hard though. (He didn't cast)

I went to West Karana with my Iksar warrior at level 20 and this guy conned indifferent to me. He was willing to offer me a rump bouncing. Since I really didn't want to find out what he ment I decided to go back to camping the bandits. He wouldn't lift a finger to help them. His place holder is A Brigand.
