Ok, so I just tried to kill Blyle Bundin for a quest (he's at the headstone near the docks in Butcherblock) and got whacked by the guard. I don't remember this being the case in live, as Bundin is not on normal guard faction since he is a deserter, but no problem. Did some research and discovered that he is supposed to path around the dock area in the Butcherblock, which is what would enable you to kill him. Currently there is no way to kill him without getting whacked by the guard that stands next to him because he never moves from that spot.
Quest Page (http://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/quest.html?quest=1250)
NPC Page (http://eqbeastiary.allakhazam.com/search.shtml?id=7096)
This is how he should be pathing
From NPC page: "His spawn point seems to be between the guard tower (the one with the OUTRAGEOUSLY over priced high-elf) next to the Aqua goblin camps and PegLeg's camp. He then paths toward the stone with guard near the dock entrance. I have not seen him anywhere else, but I'm not sure if there is more to his path."
From Quest Page: "He [...] wanders around behind Guard Rylin and the headstone near the docks, also near the bandit camp with Peg Leg, and posibly the ruins with the two rogues disgised as guards. "
UPDATE: I did manage to kill Bundin using a trick. I found some random mobs and trained them to guard Rylin standing near Bundin. Then, as the guard was lured away from his post killing my mobs, I attacked Bundin and pulled him away from Rylin. I killed him, but he did not drop his head (http://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=2751) (needed for the quest), which should be a 100% drop. I'm not willing to try that trick again (and risk xp loss) to see if his head is in his loot table at all. Just an FYI.
