The problem is that once you hit I think it's maybe Grift 33 ish, the pets would die in 1 hit. Go up against something like The Butcher and his aoe move completely wipes out your entire army. DPS is now extremely low and you got nothing to tank that angry beast.
I do think it's a very easy setup when the pets stay alive, but with 4 WD's on the screen it gets a bit laggy on the server side.
