I think using it as a materials sink would get mats moving around a little faster.
Maybe each cast using a certain combo of mats at a time.
Might also put a use to mission mats.
Also let the creatures get confused every now and then based on the taming "link".
however I'm not sure using an animal as a weapon would make for great game dynamics.
Using them maybe as a special cast, and also giving them an ability to help with other things non-combat related.
If done right it would be great. Easy to blow it though.
