Pets and Trick Arrow

Has anyone else noticed that if you ignite oil slick, the pets will immediately run away from it (which I think is funny because of two reasons: One, the pets are immune to the fire and, Two, I'm on an Illusion controller and the indestructible pets are still running away).

But that's not my gripe.

My issue is the fact that the pets will not longer enter the area even after the "effect" has passed, which can lock pets out of gameplay entirely.

Try this: ignite oil slick and throw whatever pet into the mix. The pet immediately runs out and begins using ranged attacks. A baddie runs away and you follow. Pet stays behind because it "thinks" the effect is still on the ground. When you return, the pet is immobile and will not re-engage. This is killing my Phantasm because he just sits there even when I run back to get him. So one of two things happens in order to prevent this from happening: lose oil slick (one of the best debuffers, soft holds, damage AoE combos in the game) or ditch phantasm--which losing a permanent pet for a controller is absolutely ridiculous.

I'm going to begin recording these issues so I can post them somewhere so you can actually SEE what I'm talking about. Where's a good spot other than youtube?
