Swedish Vikingr

[Skitsnut.]

I gotten this quest like 3 times about Swedish Vikingr attacking a caravan and i have to defeat them. But its impossible to find them between Tunsberg and Eidynburth or bebbanburth.
Anyone got tips where to go? i found one but it wasnt the real party???
I know that when you get the "danish elite"- quest they are mostly hiding in the waters under Cornubia but the swedish is hard to spot.

As far as I know, all Vikingr quests are the same. The person who gives you the quest tells you that they are "nearby" regardless of where you are standing when you have that conversation. He is talking about his own lands. Go to the lands he rules and that is where you will find the Vikingr camp.

They beach their ships near the shore and use that as their base camp. Follow the shoreline and don't neglect the rivers - they can be anywhere they can access by water.

Tunsberg to Eidynburgh is pretty much the entire map. No wonder you can't find them. Who gave you the quest? Where are that lords fiefs? That's where you need to go and start searching.

Also, your target will have blue text to identify them (instead of grey).

There's also the quest to attack a group of bandits that attacked travellers.

When you are given the quest, the mayor tells you where the travellers were travelling to or from. If that's across the sea, I'd usually leave my hands off it. If the type of bandit is not the kind that is bound to a hiding place (e.g. deserters), I'd also leave my hands off it, if on the british mainland.

Yes this is the quest im on. The other "bandit camp" i know by heart.
it was from tunsberg to jorvik to i figure they are in that lane but the sea is so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ big. in other games ive come across vikingrs just outside Cell Rigmonaid and Tunsberg but it seems impossible to just find them without running low on morale.
Well i will struggle on

It's probably possible to use a smaller band of men to keep the morale up (and possibly speed using sailors). But the size of the area you have to search is exactly why I'd be carefull with taking that quest, if the bandits have ships.
Remember that you can ask travellers (any party on the map) if they have seen them. Might give you a crucial hint for their location.

There are a lot of quests available but all "Vikingr" quests are the same.

Bandit camps and Vikingr quests are completely different.

In neither case would the player find themselves wandering between Tunsberg and Eidynburgh, looking for them.

If the OP can figure out what quest he is actually attempting, people could probably help him out with some useful specifics.
