Anyway the only one we probably need is Urianger since he likes to make some strange plot devices...
On "needing" our friends:
I'm pretty sure that's meant non-literally. Tataru's simply scared of us going in alone without backup, and the Scions are the best backup possible when facing an Ascian. The power scaling seems clear enough: we have the strength to overcome Elidizenos, but we need a new weapon to finish the job since we don't have access to Tupsimati or a dragon's eye, and especially because Elidibus seems to have extra weirdness going on. Giving us the right tools is basically what the Scions have always done, and that's why we need them (and also because they're our friends, of course).
