Why the fuck did she never join the party?

Because she is loyal to the empire and does what she is instructed

But in the end she betrayed the queen to assist the Princess and get Steiners dick.
She had more reason to join than Amarant or Quina.

Too powerful. But, I agree that she and Lani could've been good optional party members. I'd have loved to have taken Lani instead of the Flaming Faggot.

>> No.499730

When she was with the party during Alexandria's invasion, I always killed her to give more exp to others. Especially when she's alone with Steiner.

>> No.499745

She joined the party if you hack the game and do a Beatrix run. Best run of all runs.

>> No.499750

She would break the game, Orlandu style. Maybe at the very end of the game, steiner got there eventually.

>> No.499786

Someone had to stay behind and defend Alexandria after it got destroyed. Also since she was only temporary, they could make her stats and spells way more powerful so that the player could feel her strength when you have control over her. Kind of like when you get to use Sephiroth in FF7. If she became a permanent member, she wouldn't have been as strong and wouldn't have felt as impressive as she leads you to believe.

Defending Alexandria with her and Steiner was my favorite part of the game. That music.

Loved using all her specials on the hordes of strong monsters, one-shotting twos and threes of the pricks and powerleveling steiner to glorious heights. Truly, that was one of the best sections of an FF game. I was so, SO dissapointed when she didn't join after that part. My little teenage heart broke at not being able to have glorious One Eyed Monster on the team instead of stupid Amarant or Quina. I'd trade half the team including Eiko and Garnet just for her.

Maybe Steiner just doesn't want to get his armor dirty.

Beatrix has waded through so much blood she doesn't give a fuck anymore.

Steiner's armor condition status = rusty bucket. I don't think that's the reason.

Eiko's summons are completely different from Dagger. Her Carbuncle lets her use fucking Hastega.

Also, isn't she a throwback to FF6's General Leo, who had her moves but only joined the party temporarily?

The Doom threads are repetitive. Therefore, you should complain about repetitive threads there, you dense fuck.

At least they're generals.

You could've made a Final Fantasy general too.

But instead you made a

Give her some more mp and be sure to keep her weaker than Steiner and she would have been a great addition as the fightin' healer. You don't need two fucking summoner/white mages.

I'll forgive Eiko's existence though just for her theme. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R1eCXtUpTbU

>Why the fuck did she never join the party?
The fight you have to lose to her really pissed me off.
She does that "reduce to 1hp move," and I'm thinking, "well, that's tough, but I can come back from this."
Then the game makes me lose anyways.

That made me mad.
