Post-revamp wizard epic question

[Chillum]

I got the staff of gabstik from the mistletoe powder turn in pre-revamp and never got the CT skin. Does anyone know if its possible now after the re-vamp to spawn Arantir by the Ro's Breath subquest and turn in my staff of gabstik+blue crystal staff+gnarled staff to receive the epic? Or will the final turn in only work if Arantir is spawned by the new note that comes with the staff of gabstik after turning in the green oil to Kandin?

Thanks!
