Clarification - Pets and timers in PVP

[Darthor]

I have heard differing reports of whether or not our pets do indeed cause their own immunity timers in PvP.  Has anyone done some genuine tests on this subject (note:  real pvp, not arena fighting)?  Is the pet able to stun the opponent after your mez/stun wears off?  Vice versa?  Judging by the fact that pets are regarded as PC's when you are using CC on them, then it makes sense that the same would apply to CC used by them.  <div></div>

<DIV>Immunity timers are a shared thing among EVERYBODY.  If somebody stuns somebody else, they gain an immunity timer vs. anybody who's going to fight them.  Thus, anybody in your group, raid, general area, your pet included causes immunity timers, and there is nothing you can do about them.</DIV>

Are you just saying that or have you specifically tested it?  Our pets are not "anybody", they are npc's.From the pvp faq:  <i>*Note* You'll only be immune to these effects from other players; these immunities will not protect you from NPC spells.</i><div></div>

Your pet definately causes immunities and won't cast over your immunities, I know this from a lot of solo/duo/group pvp on Venekor. <div></div>
