Steiner or Beatrix

[daggertrepe]

Steiner. He is just 10x stronger and can pwn Beatrix by the end of the game. Who needs Beatrix when you got Eiko?

But Beatrix and Steiner DO make a good couple...

[No.78]

Both cos Beatrix is cool 'n' sheet and Steiner has a fake-face.

[raknarock]

Steiner sometimes very funny , i like him

[VengefulRonin]

Beatrix, she's waaaay smarter than steiner, doesnt do that cheap slapstick comedy like the black-and-white era comedians did, and she's stronger than steiner when you first use her. She would probably be stronger through the whole game too if you actually got to keep her >_<

If it's about skills, Beatrix was always ahead of Steiner, IIRC, and the same could be said about her knights compared to Steiner's knights. Besides, Steiner and three other party members fought Beatrix in Alexandria, and they still lost to her. As for their characters, I like them both.

deffiantly, 100% beatnix

[nik0tine]

I can't decide, so both!

[Zeromus_X]

Beatrix, sillies.

And then she completely and otterly sucks when she becomes your allie, I guess to protect the princess, Beatrix had to give up the royal Gameshark.

[Garnet_Rikku]

Uh that´s easy! =P
I think Beatrix is better then Steiner.
Steiner is so...ohm....silly xD
Beatrix is really cool and beautiful. She can perfect fight, too!Final Fantasy IX for ever!

[Zidane Ultimate]

Beatrix, she's pretty ^_^

[Darth Cid]

Well, that is true, I'll give you that.

[chrisfffan]

The game isn't designed so that she'd be a permanent party member, so you never know how her stats would have developed if Square had made her an actual party member. For the time she fights on your side, she's still very useful since her attacks do a lot of damage, she can use all those cool sword techniques and she can heal.

[Darth Cid]

she can use all those cool sword techniques and she can heal

And all those heal techinques Eiko can do. And all those sword techinques Steiner soon learns how to do. I hate to come off as hardheaded, but I'm still not impressed.
