Ok, say Elrond is wearing Vilya (grants a +1 to vitality) and is exhausted. I then use the skirmish ability which causes the ring to be discarded. So, is Elrond killed because he now has 4 wound tokens, or is a wound token removed with the ring?

That would kill him. You would have to have a way of healing him before you discarded the ring. That is what makes Gondor Knights with their fortification that reduce vitality so good. The same would be sayed if for instance Frodo is bearing Sting, Elven Long Knife with it’s vitality boost and he becomes exhausted and the opponent plays Mumak Rider and discards the sting Shocked .

Infact I have played against a Gandyalf Ring-bearer before and was ablr to discard shadowfax and Herb Bag to corrupt him Twisted Evil

I’m pretty sure my answer is correct, but Bib will sooner or later come around to verify or denounce my statement Thumbs Up.

M_H can even provide the section in the rules that covers this:

From the Lord of the Rings Comprehensive Rules 4.0: Killed
"When a card that provides a vitality bonus for its bearer is discarded, that bearer is immediately killed if his vitality is then reduced to zero."

In this case, Elrond has 4 wounds with the +1 vitality provided by the ring. Once the ring is discarded, his wounds = his vitality (vitality remaining = 0) and he is killed.
