wow, cleared the slave room after being in ajoining room for hour or so. turned to see if task respawned and to my surprise! xilnion! we were in next room, far from the ledge. couldnt con a first. so i ran up to him. smaked the daylights out of our 37 magician,i (37 sk )was under control for wut seemed an eternity and i killed our 43 necros pet. also in grp 40 bstmstr.all lived to tell the tale cept mag.needless to say he didnt have a scratch on him. 1 on revenge list.... served very cold!
oh yes, never seen before and had no idea what was in store. zoned and then rezoned back, he was waitin there by the gaurd break room. one in grp came back w/ 65 sk and he was gone....... to be continued!
Xili is a tough mob to kill.Took him down with a 57 Necro and a 54 Druid.Beware!!! He is an Enchanter.He will fear,root,pet,nuke,DoT,and what ever else a chanter can do.If there is a healer in the group, and he/she has a heal on thier list....he will pet this char and heal himself.He will make a group member turn on another and attack with spells or melee or what ever.An incredibly fun fight tho...be ready to run to keep out of distance from his melee and spell range.Oh yeah...he will also de-buff...but WOW!!!!! what a great fight
Sure is a fun fight I love it when he pops. Be aware that a PH pops in his place called Thought Horror. The PH can not be targeted and seams to just be a warning that Xil is on his way. Seams to work the best with a high lvl tank. Be sure and rute your charmed friends.
A question, what other gloves are out there that have good resists and AC to compare? I feel that these are pretty good. Any thoughts and ideas? Our group took down Xilniov, and he was a tough cookie. But we won with the help of a high lvl necro, so probably it was an uneven fight but it was still tough:)
Just keep the room clear of the slaves and you will make Xilniov so made he will come back to deal with you. Got him to spawn 3 times in a 3 hour period by just keeping the slaves cleared. Hope this helps.
Ok there IS a way to get this guy to spawn when you want him to, the trigger here is actually very easy.
First off, no one in your group can leave the ledge just outside taskmaster room. Wait for all mobs to spawn, Task and his buddies. Pull Task and beat him like a redheaded step child.
Now, start on your right and pull that slave. Then the next. The go left and pull closest to room opening. Kill them all ASAP.
Task is on a 30 minute timer, the slaves are on a 20 minute timer. So the trigger here, is after all the mobs are dead, to kill all the slaves again BEFORE Task spawns for the 2nd time . . . . . Instead of Task spawning, you will have the thought horror spawn. Be prepared this guy is hardcore, but my group of 4 50+ took him out. All I will say about how is well, CHEAT :P
Now if you follow these rules and Task still spawns, dont get all loco on me . . . just do it again. It may take a cycyle or two before he pops, but we managed to get him to pop like this3 times in a row. . . . .
See the key is, you have to **** him off by killing all his little slaves off lol. Thats why the Thought Horror tells the story about why he is pissed you killed his slaves he worked so hard to make!
Hope this helps if your after his boots of the guants, witch btw I won the roll on both 2 times in a row :)

Very nice info posted, but as my title says, its not correct.
Xilinov is a rare spawn, has no PH (as many people think, the 4th skeleton is NOT the PH for him, as they both can be up) TM is also not the PH.
Hes bot a triggered spawn, just a rare one, ive camped this room for 3 levels myself, and then also camped this room to get 6 people levels. so needless to say, ive been at this camp for a long time.
For those of you wondering, he will also random spawn from what I hear either once every 6 hours (?) or like two times a day. Thought I would add the extra info :)
I camp the Taskmaster room in echo all the time. I's say you have to clear the room including the Taskmaster 4 times before he actually spawns. When he spawns he does so as an untargetable mob at first till he buffs himself then he becomes Xilniov. We tried taking him down before but it appears you need a full group of early to mid 50's to take him down. Be careful he charms and he is nasty. He despawns in around 5 mins if you dont attack him and even when you do he may despawns during the fight so do it quick...
I was in a group today that had him pop twice in a row when you kill the taskmaster first, then start on the right and side killing skele's. On the last two skip the next to last one and kill the one on the end first then kill the one to its right.. should spawn the bastage... warning make sure to pull him OUT OF THE ROOM..taskmaster will spawn
Took this kewl looking mob down the other night. First Attempt with a 49 Wiz(me) 51 Warrior, 52 Druid and we got smoked. He is an enchanter and loves to charm! .. Druid got charmed and feared, warrior died REAL quick(5-7 seconds). While I saw this I decided to test a few different spells out to see what would stick. I was going to die anyway :) So .. this is what i tried ..Root, Snare, Ice comet .. rend. ALL RESISTED. I resisted 2 Charms and a terror mind .. he hits for 200 - 220 and seeing how I have 1k hp .. did not take long :) .. Sooo . revenge .. picked up a 60 bard and another 49 wiz , 48 cleric .. rest the same. Bard reports he is Slowable, I did hit with REND 9 + times with only 1 partial resist this time. It was real choppy for a bit .. approx 4 min fight I pulled argo but Cleric hit me with CH as the druid Healed .. warrior regained tuant just in time. It was a good fight .. Terror Boots dropped .. Druid won roll and is wearing them over her GeBs. I think all but int caster wearable. Nice looking mob too. The guy didn't pop the whole night then twice pretty close together .. not sure what trigger is . he conned white when first spawning(can't target at this point), depops and spawns yellow i think to 51 .. the group figured a 53 chanter so you figure it out :) .. Not NO DROP btw .. can't wait to get some more!
