.. aka Smn now is build, so its still engaging & fun in lv 90 high endgame, with the 3 pets & each with their individual rotas, all needing to be interchange to keep up full uptime, using the pets and skill for 100% uptime while using burst windows at its best
(imo PS2 & especially PS3 onwards are engaging enough, with changing the smn rota to fit perfectly in each specific lv 90 high endgame battle for full uptime, .
which isnt as straight forward in easy / normal fights or many lower level fight too, where it really boderlines a sleeping pill at times)
....
Im just speaking as an average raider (who has way less time the raid than he'd like.., and is caught up in Elden Ring & Elex 2 atm)
