Skills used[]

Shing Jea Island

On the mainland and in Hard Mode:

Evaluation[]

Aeson can support the team, remove enchantments, shut down melee attackers with blindness, and has a hard rez. He also has good energy management with his elite and boon of creation. The downsides are that he doesn't deal much damage. Because he doesn't have an item spell, the bonus effect of Soothing Memories will never trigger.

Dialogue[]

On Shing Jea Island:

"I am Aeson of the Crab Armada. I am something of a rarity among my people, I was born blind you see. Normally I would have been left out on the jade; given to the sea. However Master Togo convinced my father that I had rare gifts, that I could display my strength by binding spirits to my will. I owe the Master a great debt. Did you need something?"

In the Jade Sea:

"It is strange to return to my people after being an outcast for so long. They no longer see my lack of sight as a weakness, and treat me with a respect that I am unused to. In some ways I was more comfortable the way things used to be. Did you need something?"

  • "When Master Togo first brought me here I was unsure of my abilities, afraid and alone. I have since left such weaknesses behind."

  • "The Jade Sea is a dangerous place, we should not linger in one place for too long."
