can't eiko do almost exactly what dagger can do? don't make people look bad, ok?

No, it doesn't suck. Like Doc already said, if you are equiped with shadow absorbing armour etc, then it does insane dammage to the enemy party and completely recovers your own party at the same time. Also, if I remember correctly, Ozma is dammaged by it if you've done the friendly-encounter side quest.

19,998 dammage on the whole enemy party isn't that dammaging? Doomsday is the most powerfull spell in the whole game and Vivis spells are much more powerfull and usefull than Garnets summons. How powerfull Vivi's magic is depends on what he's equiped with. With good enough equipment he's able to do 9999 dammage with many of his spells. The ability called "focus" is also much more usefull than you may think at first. Osmose turns Vivi into a powerhouse that never runs out of MP. Vivis trance is also one of the best trances. That's what allows him to do as much as 19,998 dammage in 1 singel turn. :cool:
