Ah well, I guess I missed out on Steiner's ability. I miss a different one each time I play through the game. XD
Not necessarily. You can still teach Steiner Chemist with Madain's Ring. And he can learn Restore HP from Platinum Helm or Promist Ring.

I've never even acquired Excalibur II, simply because you can learn its abilities from other swords.
