Would make pet based builds pretty useless since the idea is the pets do the damage for you while you help them out with skills like Curse of Frailty and Blood of Dreeg. Might as well not bother with them at all if that was the case.
If your pets are dying too quickly then you need to look at your builds because pets are some of the strongest builds out there atm. Just have a look at Maya’s Carnvial of Pets thread to see how strong they can be.
Alternatively just make pet builds using player based pets like Guardians of Empyrion and Blade Spirit.
