I have come to fight a load of these Black Dhuras myself (it's what the japanese refer to him as, it's not a name) and I must say he's not as powerful as you would expect from a G7 monster.

With 1300-1400 defense you are able to survive a load of attacks from him, albeit barely... the only time you really have to watch out is in it's Power Form. I call it his Odhi-Form because his head and muscularity remind me of it, but he moves primarely like Pariapuria while there though.

In that mode he was able to deal 100 damage to me while guarding with Guard +2 with a Lance. He is a real oneshotter in that form.

Behaviour wise I wouldn't call him the most challenging monster. He can be safely attacked most of the time and having alternating weak spots is also pretty nice. Speed Form (or Narga-Form as I call it) has wings for weak spot, while Odhi-Form has weak rear legs.

I can't say I'm disappointed about him aside from the fact he's a random spawner and his compound armor skill gives the Embrace of Death skill which means a 1/8 chance of instant death from any hit you take from enemies.
