Be careful what you wish for.

Seriously though, find all the best information you can.

Ohohoho, what an ominous warning!

Here's Nillipuss: http://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/quest.html?quest=57
(Speaking of him, he apparently picks up anything on the ground that is near him, including player-dropped items. On p99 when I followed him, he did not pick up the jum jum stalk sitting in the middle of the field by the druid guild.)

Depending on whom you talk to, Nillipus is either on a three-hour or two-hour spawn. I have never had the time to sit in Rivervale and time it, but it at least appears to be somewhere in the neighborhood of three hours.

Several people on the last page here say that they have timed his spawn time and that it is definitely two hours.

Killed him 3 times so far, spawn time seems to be around 3 1/2 hours, and time seems to vary slightly.

I would have to agree that he is a 2 hour spawn. I would camp in the feilds by druid guild and log back every hour and a half after killing him and he would appear shortly. Just make sure that you talk to Reebo each time, I think it makes him spawn in the 2 hour time frame.

* Others confirm that talking to Reebo does not really spawn him, just another one of those early EQ rumors [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

And here's Zahal the Vile in a thread about Regis for the Cleric bracer quest in Sol Ro: http://www.eqclerics.org/forums/showthread.php?t=107

From my experience. Regis does NOT have a spawn cycle. It's purely dependant on Zahal's spawn cycle. Zahal is on an 8-10hr spawn cycle. Regis spawns a few seconds after Zahal dies. Regis will stay in the zone at his spawn point untill he is killed. That is why some people have reported killing Regis twice in under 8hrs.
