@A Wikia Contributor - Doesn't matter the game will always have her marked as essential so she can never die. She is really powerful especially in her life even when she's getting hit by fire constantly. The only bad thing is that having her with you will weaken your Vampire Lord's Drain Life spell.

Even with that crutch I would have to say Serana is the only VI I've seen to stay up through so many beatings head on & still dish out a lot of damage to them (Too bad you can't tell her to go into her Vampire Lord form).
