Lint could keep up with Xenovia during their training spar. There's no reason to believe she went all out and Xenovia went easy or viceversa. Irina's participation against the Khaos Brigade and Qlippoth is little more than fighting Hero Faction members without Balance Breaker along with the Gremory group and the fodder Evil Dragons that even Ravel can one-shot en masse. The most she has done is the fight with Yaegaki. Other than that there's nothing special on her contributions. I only said Lint's Longinus has the potential to kill a god, but she doesn't need to master it to deal with the likes of Irina. Even if she hasn't mastered it it's still a Longinus, which makes it stronger than any non-Longinus Sacred Gear with all things being equal and on top of that she has achieved Balance Breaker. Are you implying that something like Hautecleure is on par with a Longinus? I am not saying Irina is weak, but when compared to Lint, her firepower is severely lacking and she has no obvious advantages while she does have disadvantages in terms of power, along with no reason to believe she's more skilled. Lint is also stronger as an Angel going by their wings.

Her Balance Breaker is not the healing power. Her Balance Breaker has the function to nullify damage and defend against attacks, and there's no indication that she can transfer that effect to her healing arrows or long distance healing aura.

I never said Ddraig cannot eliminate members of Rias' team. Don't put words in my mouth. All I said is that just how Typhon couldn't steamroll Issei's team in ten seconds because he cannot be everywhere at the same time, Ddraig also cannot.
