2) It absolutely doesn't matter if it makes no sense to you or ice pets will be useless after the bug fix. That's now they worked on live servers and the devs started over and over again that they want to emulate 1.65 as close as it gets. That includes strange behaviour (if correct for 1.65) or imbalances (sos, gpurge etc.). As long as the devs don't go with an overall balance change to make thinks more even, ice pets have to function like they did on live.

1) Sorry but this is not an answer. Melee pets resume attacking after getting interrupted with stuns.They are not forgetting. Using the same logic on ice pets , they should resume attacking via nukes after the same stun wears off.Same goes with other interrupts.
2) Well since i am not a developer, i do not share this point of view so i cannot in good heart upvote the ridiculous track issue that wants to break ice pet functionality just because it was 1.65. I did not sign a contract to share this ridiculous point of view, and I do not accept the fact that to enjoy classic daoc i have to adhere to a strictly 1.65 version which had plethora of bugs and imbalances. Others share the same view as me for different but valid reasons. The casting mob AI improvement on Uth 2 was a welcoming change and NOT a bug, like for example : Double melee hit attacks, casting mobs NOT having a range check on the end of their cast, ice pets >25 lvl being the same for all intends and purposes so speccing ice line above lvl 25 is pointless.

Also a hypothetical question: Would the people here crying for "bug" fix, be ok with breaking something intentionally just because it was 1.65 like? What if during this patch time speccing avoidance of magic would increase cc duration instead of reducing it?And let's assume that uthgard dev's unintentionally removed this accident while trying to recreate the patch level.Would u issue an issue tracker reverting this, to the broken 1.65 version? If answer is yes, then it would seem you and others are working towards recreating a broken state of the game, even for those things that were accidentally improved to have a better functionality.

I don't think you get my point. It's not my personal opinion that everything should be as close to 1.65 as possible, it's the opinion of the people who created this server. If that makes sense is a totally different discussion you can have with the devs, but not with me. My argument is if Uthgard aims for 100% 1.65 that should include ice pets as well, even if you don't like it because you play the class.

That, to me, is why they were able to be permanently removed from casting status after a successful interrupt. Maybe I'm being a bit basic and a bit obvious, but well, if you can't see you can't see it.

What you say makes sense, but let's apply your thought process a bit further.Casting ice pets requires time where u are interrupt -free and costs power. Should you be able to counter them using an aoe insta amnesia , or s/c d/q debuff both of which are on a really low recast timer? Shouldn't it be a little harder than this?
