I'm not saying they should have. I pretty much just gloss over the fight scenes in this show anyway. (At least in volume 3, the ones in the other two were usually shorter and more interesting. Which probably had to do with the fact that there wasn't one in every episode, aside from 8.)

But they do it for 15 minutes. Especially when said 'build-up' is just showing more action for the most part. They did have a good bit of it without, like the start with Ironwood, or Cinder's scene.

When build-up drags on too long and wasn't doing much in the first place, it's basically filler.

...Seriously? Ugh, whatever. As you say, 'impatient to get to the good shit', no I'm not. I don't even care for action that much. I'm not even wanting to see the next episode after this honestly, because I'm pretty sure it's just going to be 15 minutes of action.

Pyrrha and Ruby getting over Penny's death was pretty pointless. I mean it's a robot. Build another. I guess for Pyrrha it had some purpose, especially since she didn't know she was a robot. (Come to think of it, do the rest of team RWBY even know? It's literally just Ruby isn't it?)

What purpose does Ruby trying to take back the ship do? She's certainly not going to defeat both Neo and Roman on her own.

Blake running into Adam was so unbelievably convienient. (Plot convienience) Immediately after leaving Weiss she runs into Adam so they can have some 'dramatic duel' or whatever. So yes, to be fair this wasn't filler, but definitely not well done nonetheless.

Again, Pyrrha accepting Amber's powers isn't filler either. But it's the last like 15 seconds of the episode. I can hardly even call that a major part, especially since the next one will probably have a legnthy scene with them transferring Amber's aura to her.

Soo...yeah. I guess there was some purpose in this one, but not a lot of it.
