Yeah. What was Pyrrha hoping to accomplish by fighting someone that can defeat Ozpin?

@SomeNewGuy But there is every reason for her to be there if you paid attention to her. Duty is important to her, and she being a Huntress as her destinty. She stands her ground against Cinder knowing fully well she's hopelessly outmatched because it is her duty as a Huntress to defend the world against such threats, no matter the odds.

Slow her down from what? Reaching the rest of the heavily armed Hunters? Cinder wasn't even coming after them.

[up][up]Ozpin said it best, the tower must not fall, Cinder went to the top because it was important so she must be stop, no matter what

[up][up][up] Stopping her from destroying the CCT Tower and plunging the world into chaos.

And you know what? It ALMOST worked. In spite of Cinder's powers, Pyrrha had the upper hand for a good portion of the fight. She came close to winning, and might very well have won if you played out their fight a second time with slightly different circumstances.

I don't get the whole "it doesn't feel resolved" type of complaint. That's kind of the point to me. That's part of the tragedy that is murder. It's cutting things short, it's the end of all things and there is no coming back from it. It's why such things aren't an ideal thing to inflict on somebody because of how permanent it is and all that is lost due to it.

So it's intentional to not complete Character Development? It good to kill her off for the sake of her being gone forever?

That doesn't seem like good character development at all to me.

Also, I still don't get it. Does the Vale CCT being destroyed mean all of the other ones don't work at all, or is it just local blackout and the other ones still work, just no world-wide communications?

[up][up] Ehh, given Pyrrha was very much The Ace, there's not that much room for a character arc that doesn't involve humiliation or death.

[up][up][up][up] It's not about character development, it's about it getting such potential cut off. Not everybody gets a happy story or ending. Life isn't fair and this is reflected at times in fiction. I don't blame writers for capturing this reality.

Ozpin last words to Pyrrha and Jaune were to get Glynda and Qrow, judging by where she sent him Pyrrha was planning to keep Cinder there as long as she could until they arrived.

Local communication probably still works.But kingdom to kingdom com are dead

If Cinder didn't destroy the tower, the Dragon would've.

Pyrrha had nothing to gain by being overmatched.

[up] if she can kill a demi-god, then why can't she slay a dragon?

Btw, should it be Jaune or Ruby or both who eventually deliver the true finishing blow to Cinder?

Ok, who let Light Yagami in here?

The sad part about Phyrra's death is that she was five seconds away from getting the advantage she needed to win. There's no way Cinder could have kept up with both Phyrra and Ruby considering she almost lost to the former on her own. But that's why Phyyrra said about destiny, it's not about fate, it's the course that your life takes you, and sadly hers was cut short.

[up][up]Why not both at the same time?

[up]Agreed. Sad, but true.

Because Pyrrha is built for Pv P. Her weapons, ability and tactics have fared better against human opponents than Grimm.

The opposite of Coco, if you will.

It's not about character development, it's about it getting cut off. Not everybody gets a happy story or ending. Life isn't fair and not everybody gets a happy ending.

That's irrelevant, my point is about her character not feeling complete.

Her character was complete for role it served. If you mean you wished you had more time with seeing her interact with things and so on, too bad there.

Love It! Jaune stabs her and Ruby decapitates. [lol] Simultaneous "THIS IS FOR PYRRHA!" optional.

[up]Scene like that would also probably cement Rose Knight/Lancaster pretty firmly. Even if it remains platonic
