In PvP when a ranger dies (and the pet vanish) when the ranger respawn the bet turns visible for a short second were it vanished when the ranger died. When this happens the pet trigger traps from other players or place your in combat, even though the pet is not suppose to even be visible when they respawn.

This is also a issue in world verses world. Last night we throwed enemies out of a tower. There was a ranger dead inside of it that did not respawn. To make sure no messmer was hanging around i sat down next to the dead ranger and waited for him to respawn. After 4 min this happens and his pet goes visible for a short second, but enough for the npc to react and fire a arrow towards the pet and the tower is now marked as contested.

The visible bug on the pet when the ranger respawn some were else have been there for very long, but the last patches the aggro the short brief of time the pet turns visible when the ranger respawn is enough to trigger traps, aggro guards and aggro players so they enter combat. And consider the pet is not even suppose to be visible were the pet despawned, when the ranger respawn somewere else it simply have to be fixed.

The bug is easy to re-create and i see it fairly often now. Today in PvP it had my traps going off at least 1 time, and there was also a situation were another rangers pet reacted to the re-spawning pet which got us in to combat on the point and slowed my team mates down when they tried to reach another point that was contested.

I am sure this is also a issue in PvE, but since it is not really effecting stuff in the same way as pvp and wvw it might not be as big of a issue there.
