I ranked for Fujisan just with Intermediate (and Halloween Hades only on Passion day), there definitely is a point in doing Intermediate as long as you can finish reliably. Some sort of Overkill would help though. But even without HH I was able to surpass 100k points regularly and without much trouble. The Jean formation appears like rats. So there's that.

Personally I also use it to farm AW's. My WG drop rates suck, all of my drops come from Intermediate EH panels. It might be different for you, of course. Kossy is right about the orbs though... and you can always get unlucky and not get the SR you want to appear. But even if only for the points, if you can be bothered, use the keys. There is a reason why points rise to the celestial skies as soon as EH opens, and it's not all Advanced.

About effectiveness: 1-1.
