Brother Qwinn  

Definitely a cyclops ph. Can't highsun so just followed, passed by Woran Soothsayer twice, very close to him. Also passed directly over the entrance to Splitpaw and Lord Grimot several times as well as pathing by Woran Soothsayer several times. Huge path around zone.

Sir Nanrduar
High Shaman Phido
a one eyed gnoll
a Splitpaw gnoll
treant x1
The Ishva Mal

Still very Killable

Faction Hits you WILL take upon killing him

Ashen Order -500
Knights of Truth -75
Silent Fist Clan -50

As of today, Brother Qwinn is still level 61triple attacking for somewhere in the mid-200's. He seemed about the same based on many previous encounters to spar. However, he then punched me for 650 DD with a spell called "Vigorous Strike":

Spell: Vigorous Strike

Cast: Instant
Resist: Unresistable
Target: Single
Reflectable: No
Range: 1000
Duration: Instant

On You: The monk strikes you with tremendous force.

This attacked knocked me back about 20 yards out of combat as if I had feigned death.

I did not test him further out of respect for his abilities.

Zero faction hit for killing Brother Qwinn.

Killed as a level 56 monk with full defiant gear and a tier 2 Cleric Merc.

Just in case anyone was wondering, qwinn is on a 66s named cycle (like most named in SK), but has a different PH from at the least:

- Quillmane
- Grizzleknot
- Cracktusk
- Gnawfang
- Marik Clubthorn
- Kroldir Thunderhoof
- Coloth Meadowgreen
- Sentry Alechin
- Shaman Ren`Rex

because literally all of these named are up in SK right now, including Brother Qwinn.

We needed Qwinn for my monk so I took a tracker and a pet class. What I did was kill everything down the whole west side until an escaped splitpaw gnoll spawned on the west side of the map from splitpaw. It may also spawn a little north of splitpaw too. I ignored the ones that spawned in the south east part of the map as quite often killing that cycle spawned Shaman Ren'rex and High Shaman Grisok.

Once an escaped splitpaw gnoll was on track I stopped killing for around a minute. During this time the pet class dismissed and resummoned the pet. The tracker put tracksort onto normal and then I killed the escaped gnoll. At this point the summoned pet was at the top of the track list so I knew that anything that spawned above it MUST be its PH. I kept killing and about 20 minutes later Qwinn spawned. Monk did the hand in then left to find brother Z in rathe mountains.

As there was nobody else in the zone, I killed Qwinn (no robe) and reset the pet/merc. I then killed whatever spawned above the pet in the tracking list since I knew this was definitely a PH for Qwinn. Within 10 minutes, he respawned so I killed him again and about 20 minutes later he respawned a third time. On a couple of occasions I noticed TWO mobs spawn instead of one. I wasn't sure which was the one I wanted so both got killed unless it spawned a long way from the west side. I concentrated on the ones in the west. The mobs in the spawn cycle were: a lion, a lioness, an elephant calf, escaped splitpaw gnoll, adult elephant, centaur courser, aviak rook. I also had Kurrpok Splitpaw spawn once so I left him up. As I am writing this BOTH Kurrpok and Qwinn are up so I'm guessing that killing things on this cycle acts as a trigger as well as a PH.

Anyway, I hope this helps people who might be after Qwinn still. The ranger had 220 tracking but even with somebody with less tracking, using the pet bookmarking system in track you should still be able to find and kill the PHs.

Edit: Sadly the pet bookmark tip doesn't work with mercs as they always appear at the top of the track list.

Why is this guy listed as a Necromancer GM? He's obviously got nothing whatsoever to do with Necromancers.

Okay, here is some info after many hours trying to get him to spawn. It appears he always spawns near the west wall, probably near shadowed man camp as mentioned in this very useful post: http://home.comcast.net/~echelonforester/quillmane2.htm

For me, he finally spawned at -2993, +2084 (under the tree) and stood there for about a minute or more. He then pathed due south until he reached -4915, +1439... immediately turned around and headed north to +330, +1116. Then an immediate right turn and walked east to +963, -402 and stopped there for about 60 seconds. Then he proceeded east to +1461, -1983... then turned south and walked to -5533, -1979, then turned west and pathed to -6712, +575 and stopped there for a bit. He then headed SE for a short distance to -7321, -453 and stopped again for a while (near south wall). Then he walked west to -7052, +862 and then north and around the aviak village... after that he turned north and went up to Paw spires and I assume repeated a similar pattern.

As a general rule, he (and I assume his PH's) will path due north-south or due east-west, making a clockwise circle around the zone with sharp right turns. He will always eventually path over Paw. He never seems to stop for more than about 60 seconds... remaining still for the longest stretch at his spawn point.

The post I mentioned above is quite accurate in terms of the spawn cycle and PH's (spawn cycle being 78 secs). I would guess the % chance of him popping is about the same as the % chance of spawning Quillmane on his cycle... but they are on seperate cycles.

Do no be fooloed into believing that either Sentry Alchin OR Sir Nandruar are PH's for him... they are not. I have numerous screen shots with all of them either in the same photo or all three in my tracking window. These guys are not PH's for Brother Qwinn! He is probably the only named on his cycle... otherwise they are the typical lions, lionesses, an elephant, an escaped splitpaw gnoll, cyclops, treant, shadow or mist wolf.

BTW, Sentry Alchin becomes a werewolf on occasion... both the werewolf and Alchin drop the same no drop, lore item... a locket.

I hope this helps someone... bring a ranger for tracking... it is a HUGE help.

Been a week on zegony that I have been looking for him. With the above said he has to have a PH.

I just killed him about 5 minutes ago, and he was wearing the robe....I was so excited.....woe to me when I looted him and saw an intricate defiant silk robe.

*walks away grumbling*

I can confirm that he does drop robe if he is wearing the robe. I have seen him many times wandering zone and today he was wearing the robe so I logged on my 65BST (5.8khp/mana self buffed) and tried to find him to kill. I found that if you wait near hermits hut and watch for him on this little hill he will wander through to the southen corner right as it is getting dark. I wached him at least 4 times do this like clockwork so I waited there and Attacked. He resisted all spells but was able to kill him (just let pet tank and kept walking in attacking till was down then backing off and healing pet. With servant vet reward and mana was able to kill easy)

He does run at 15% so that also helps.. hit for low 300's didnt see anything harder... and was rather fun to kill. I got robe on my monk so now just need to finish Robe of Whistling fist quest then get 2nd robe for epic... Defintly well worth trouble to by pass the quest for Robe of Lost Circle.....

I'd like to confirm that as of march 08 he still drops the robe of the lost circle. what was suprising tho was the fact that he was attackable because most guildmasters are not. no faction hit still. ran at low hp.

i'd also like to add that he was wearing a robe when i killed him. i notice in the screenshot above he's not wearing the robe. just thought i'd throw that out there.
