Pros Cons
 * Resilient.
 * Ranged, consistent, attacker.
 * Usually not high on monster AI's priority list.
 * Poor selection and use of skills. One of the most effective ranger tactics is to be a menace for enemy spell casters, but she is not.

Behavior
Reyna is a long range moderate damage dealer, relying on Dual Shot, Power Shot, and Kindle Arrows to chip away at enemy health. While having a slightly lower potential damage output compared to the other damage focused henchmen, she is fairly resilient. Enemies tend to target Reyna the least often, simply because she is either further away from them than the other henchmen are, or because she has a higher armor rating. In heated skirmishes, she sometimes uses her relative safety to her advantage, resurrecting a fallen party member to turn the tide of the battle.

Perhaps Reyna's greatest asset is that she relies on a bow to deal damage. She will not be shutdown by the anti-caster abilities such as the Ice Imp's Maelstrom or the Forgotten Illusionist's Chaos Storm which makes her a good choice for areas such as the Ice Floe or Spearhead Peak. She also further advances her effectiveness in the Southern Shiverpeaks with her Fire Damage-dealing Kindle Arrows. Even better, because she is often further away from monsters than the other henchmen, she will rarely be targeted by anti-weapon skills, such as the Avicara Wise's Ineptitude or the Enchanted Bow's Throw Dirt.

All in all, Reyna's characteristics make her a solid choice if you favor consistency in a long range damage dealer.

Tips

 * Reyna may not be a good choice for heavy combat areas. She deals moderate damage with her preparation active, but may not pack the "punch" that the other henchmen have.
 * Use her range to your advantage. Exploit it in places such as the Nolani Academy mission where you can snipe at the Charr from the cliffside.
 * Reyna is a survivor. Due to the large amount of enemies who do elemental damage, Reyna often effectively has as much or more armor than any other henchmen.

Dialogue

 * "Most people call me "Eagle Eye." That's because I'm the best Ranger this side of the Tarnished Coast. If you're lookin' for adventure then you'll be needin' someone to watch your back, someone who knows these lands like the back of her hand. My bow is at your service. Just say the word."
