Route Logic Considerations

Gin-Wulm can technically be killed for this quest, but we already have to read The Armorer's Challenge [Armorer] since it is a skill book, so the time difference is insignificant. It is faster to kill Gin-Wulm since the skill book is also in the Cheydinhal Fighters guild, which also saves an additional trip to talk to Phintias, but this has not been tested yet.
Like all the Master Training quests, the actual Master Trainer needs to be alive prior to starting the quest in order to be able to complete it.
Rohssan in A Fighting Chance in the Market District and Rasheda in Fire and Steel in Chorrol are both able to start this quest. Both NPCs need to be invested in anyway, so the more optimal one will be situational depending on route logic. Rohssan seems like she will almost always be the ideal choice given that she is in the same general area as Gin-Wulm.
