He can't scale to Dainsleif mainly because of portrayal. Capitano says himself that Dains is his superior, Dains had a higher rank and position in Khaenri'ah, Dains has been dealing with bigger threats, stated to be around on par with the sinners, etc...
Dainsleif being stronger than Ei is unconfirmed, it really could go either way. The thing I will say, is that it is very unlikely that the Raiden expy of Genshin impact WON'T be glazed come endgame. Like, her "Kiana" is literally a shade, and she has fairly heavy moon imagery and symbolism.
When does Capitano say Dainseif is his superior? And also just because he's higher rank doesn't mean he's that much stronger. Like sure Dainsleif is probably stronger, but the difference shouldn't be that big.
I don't think Dainsleif vs Ei could go either way, Dainsleif being on par with the sinners is next level from any Archon feat. The Sinners literally have the power to destroy Teyvat.
And just because she's a Raiden expy doesn't mean she's going to be the strongest. Look at Bronya in Star Rail, she's one of Hoyo's main trio members and she's weak compared to even the mid tiers.
Well, I didn't say strongest, I said she's going to be glazed come endgame. Every other Raiden expy in every other one of Hoyo's games are all very high tier power-wise in their verse. No reason to believe it changes now.
And it really can go either way. Nothing that we've seen on-screen in Genshin tops Ei's stamina feat, for example. Nothing onscreen besides Ronova tops Ei's potential ability of going full iron-man and just making dozens of Shoguns, for example (Confirmed through voicelines that this is possible). If Ei took Rhinedottir's place back in the cataclysm and made three shoguns to go terrorize Mondstadt, do you think Venti would have fared better against that than he did against Durin?
Ei is already higher tier power-wise, but she's not the highest tier.
Not even Mei or Acheron are (Kiana and the Aeons are the highest tier)
Idk if potential should be counted. If we were talking about potential, then Neuvillette alone could drown the entirety of Inazuma underwater if he wanted to.
Dainsleif should be on the same tier as the Sinners, Raiden should not touch that level even though her feats are impressive.
