She is the most powerful princess,
I'm suggesting there's a reason for that, and it's not a happy accident that any '
regular' could find themselves in...
head of Zahards whole army
You're thinking Adori, but she (Adori) could have similar heritage - we don't know yet.
and has the S class 13 month weapon
This is a gift for being strong/feats, not a REASON for her ranking. But, again you're thinking Adori. No feat by a princess can compare with feats by FH's. And there are S-class weapons that the FH's have. So, all things the same a weapon alone shouldn't justify a higher or equal rank to a FH.
ofcourse she is ranked that high.
None of these 'reasons' justify her being ranked higher than Family Heads, who should best her in every field based on what we think we know. They should be more powerful, have more clout, more pull, etc. They are more ancient, more established, all irregulars, have the same access to S-class weapons (and even apparently S+ class weapons...), have their own armies, are OG's with Zahard, etc. Nothing Enne, or even Adori since you are talking about her, can do can compete. It's like you're comparing Lulsec to V. He's still a subordinate. Princesses should be subordinate to the FH's, by strength and by rep, and Enne should be at least ranked below each of her parents as FH's themselves. That is, unless, she's functionally an irregular by being full-blooded from two irregulars. Then, add Z-blood for good measure.
So, again, on paper the only thing that can justify her ranking above FH's is her strength. Otherwise, she should rank very high, but not above family heads. Except, I don't think her ranking among them is an accident - solely because of her HERITAGE.
Enne is different from every other child of the FH's in the tower, aside from baby Baam. (that we know so far). I suspect that is the number one reason she is so strong and ranks so high.
Enne's rank isn't coincidental IMO considering her FULL-BLOODED heritage. I suspect we'll discover the same for other extremely high-rankers, such as Adori and maybe even Baek.
Yuris rank went up after she found green april iirc and she doesnt seem to be head of any army squad yet.
Yuri could never rank above a FH irrespective of what weapon she had (IMO). And that's the point.
People seem to be too stuck on feats and political good-will/clout as being relevant in the ranking structure just because it is added as a trait that is measured, yet everything in the tower points to strength being the primary trait that is measured (feats are impossible without strength, clout is much easier with... strength). Nevertheless, even considering secondary traits such as political clout (btw, we're talking Enne... she should have little to none given her
current status yet she is STILL ranked 7th... her overwhelming strength is literally the only thing that could justify this as she is persona non grata) there is still nothing a princess could do that a FH couldn't - as an ancient irregular with so-called nigh-unlimited power - just as good or better. Princesses are MADE to not be able to compete with FH's, yet here we have Enne and even Adori. They're made to be second-tier. They are literally MADE.
if Baam one-shots someone Karaka caliber easily then Baam is worth facing kallavan... i cant see that happening
But that doesn't really answer the question. If Baam faces nothing but rankers from now on, how does one justify Baam not being AT LEAST ranker-level now?
