When madara was revived, he lost his pair of rinnegan ,his reservoir of
infinite chakra and not be killed ability (being an edo tensei).

So, I know why madara wanted to be revived, but my question is , how does the
ability differ in these 2 cases?

Difference between edo tensei Madara with rinnegan and Alive Madara with Rinnegan


An Edo Tensei cannot be a jinchuuriki, and so, he couldn't complete his plan
by becoming the Ten Tails' jinchuuriki. That is the main reason he wanted to
be revived.

Also, although very powerful, the power of a "real" Rinnegan is far superior
to one of the reanimated "fake" Rinnegan. The "real" Rinnegan can summon and
control the Gedo Mazo, use the **[Rinbo:
Hengoku](http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Rinbo%3a_Hengoku)** technique etc.

Because he knew that remaining in such an unimportant inefficient state
couldn't accomplish anything remotely significant and it was kinda idiotic to
still be in such an extremely weakening state for him since Madara had such an
immensely glorious goal of the highest calibre to achieve. Also, actually in
fact Madara himself is million times more vastly powerful in his fully-living
body than in his half-dead paper-maché-like like living corpse state.

The real/living-vital Rinnegan he received is extremely far beyond thousand
times more extraordinary powerful/capable than the half-dead Edo Tensei
extremely weakened one.

It was like literally comparing the important significance of rarest diamonds
to paper mache which is in shape of a common diamond and has some real
microscopic pieces of common and rare diamonds inside. There is a lot of
astronomical universal-sized difference here, both between real Rinnegan and
Edo-Tensei Rinnegan and between Fully-Vitally-Revived Madara and the Half-Dead
Walking Corpse Madara respectively.

As [mentioned by Madara Uchiha](https://anime.stackexchange.com/a/7639), as an
Edo Tensei he could not be a jinchuuriki of the Ten Tails wich was needed to
activate the Infinite Tsukoyomi.

Second is that he wasn't near his full power and his Rinnegan had some
abilities but not as much and powerful as the Rinnegan while alive.

While being an Edo Tensei, he released himself from any kind of control the
emotions, adrenaline etc., became sustained like you don't give a crap about
anything. Being an Edo Tensei you just cannot fight with full dedication and
fighting spirit. It's like holding back is part of your nature.

Also the risk of being sealed while in his Edo Tensei state would always be a
risk.
