Bot Zoning Issues

I have a Rogue bot.. When I zone I tend to lock-up if she's in group. I'm getting frustrated when I get fresh buffs for myself and bot.. I zone crash come back and then have to zone back to a Zone with Sune summon my bot and buff just to crash on zoning. It's a vicious cycle.
Also if I die and my bot doesn't die.. She poofs.. Can we get it where the bots keep there buffs.. just like players. Bot's buffs can stay on timers just like players buffs. Would resolve half the issue. Then you could just summon bot again and it would at least still have the buffs I left zone to get in the first place.

Bot persistant buffs.. Please!

I agree that bots with persistent buffs would be awesome.

The bug where your bot freezes up after zoning is caused by a member of your group zoning before the bot's owner zones. If you always zone with the bot's owner first your bot will not become paralyzed. If your bot happens to freeze up, you can drop the group and reinvite the bot and reform the group. I'm not sure if the buffs go away when this happens but since the bot never despawns, I assume the buffs don't go anywhere. Just an fyi, because it sounds like you're not aware of this bug.
