Evaluation
Pros Cons
 * Resilient to elemental damage due to Ranger armor.
 * Has several interruption skills.
 * Can inflict Dazed.
 * Henchmen cannot prioritize which skills to interrupt.
 * Poor energy management.
 * Has no defensive stances.
 * Deals little skill based damage.
 * Similar to other Ranger NPCs, he will activate Read the Wind whenever the duration of the preparation has ended, even when the party is being attacked, missing the opportunity to interrupt foes.

Dialogue
Boreas Seabed mission outpost:
 * "Three of us will die today. I do not fear it.  The spirit of the crab is strong in me, and besides, I have died and been reborn many times in this life.


 * My opponents are strong in some ways, weak in others. I know them well.  You are new to me, but I'm not worried."

Divine Path:
 * "Now that Shiro is finished, it is time to turn our attention back to the Kurzicks."

Kaineng City and the Jade Sea towns and outposts:
 * "(Character Name)! You truly proved yourself a cunning foe when you defeated me in the Convocation~ perhaps even a match for me in a fair fight.  If you ever wish to test your strength against me, or need my assistance, you need only ask.


 * What did you need?"

Quotes
Boreas Seabed mission:
 * "Are you still breathing?" (when his group spawns)
 * "How is it possible?" (when he is defeated)

The Jade Sea:
 * "A cunning warrior walks in the footsteps of the Crab and treads lightly so that his foes' traps will not ensnare him. Remember this, and we will do well in combat."
 * "These plague creatures are like no foe I have ever encountered. Their actions follow no logic or plan that I can detect and have no obvious purpose other than to kill."
 * "You'd think that after Argo was defeated in the Convocation; Hala wouldn't adore him so. But no, it's always Argo this, Argo that..."

Battle quotes

 * "I've got you right where I want you!"

 * "Over here!"
 * "There is nowhere for you to hide!"
 * "Tread lightly, fiend! Your footsteps will betray you!"
 * "You cannot escape from us. We have you trapped!"
 * "You don't seem to be bleeding. Why don't you let me help with that?"
 * "You'll be walking with a limp soon!"
