As soon as you include demisummoning, that all goes out the window and it becomes an absolute mess.

Demi summoning is the mechanical cancer infesting this job and the only thing that actually needs a rework, but SE continues to double down on the awful mechanic every expansion making the problems worse than before.

*Specifically normal pet AI. Demi AI is still a flaming pile of garbage and they can refuse to attack on summon unless forced to by an action.
Which is also why they really can’t fix seraph, because seraph is just SCH Demi summon that kills eos

They really should have just given eos “seraph stance” that allows her to queue up consolation and seraphic veil
