Calling Carbuncle a 'summon' is already laughable given the actual in-game lore (not that SE has cared about that for this job in years), but it already has nothing to do besides stand around and be a blood sacrifice to demi summon. It has no attacks, no real utility except to steal the ability of a different egi we've had for years, and no way to actually add anything without it feeling like crap because of the demi summoning mechanic.

Carbuncle is a glorified emergency ration, it already has nothing to do with "summoning."
