That said, the only reason we actually need the echo is for primals so they can't temper us fighting wise, the whole ressurrection/become stronger bit is mostly just for gameplay purposes.


I see. Either way, connected or not, to add Echo to Steps would be a foolish thing to do. It is the most powerful boss to that point of the storyline and it takes away the thrill of doing the fight without any aid by any buffs aside from skills and thus the thrill of a legit boss fight that isn't a Primal lol.
