The consider gets weaker and weaker because the serpent doesn't gain in level as quickly as you do. In other words, a level 51 druid isn't going to call a level 51 staff. It's intended to be mostly useful in the low ranks (and teach newer druids how to work alongside an order-able pet), and tail off in utility as the druid approaches the bigger abilities of the class.
