So, I hit 56 on my frost mage the other night and did a couple of random Dire Maul East runs. The funny thing is, my Water Elemental refuses to attack Hydrospawn. Has anyone else noticed this? Is it a cute easter egg, a bug, or something different?
I just thought it was humorous... maybe they're related?

Could be the fact that Hydro's immune to frost damage.
Just tossin ideas.

Going into the fight, I was expecting to see Hydrospawn resist all of my Elemental's attacks, but my pet did nothing - literally just sat there and didn't move an inch or cast once during the fight even after I furiously clicked on his attack button on my pet bar. I haven't seen him do that to any other mob or boss.
As soon as the fight was over, he was his usual self melting (or should I say freezing) faces.

Since it has no melee attacks and no spells that are not immune, it has nothing to do. It's by design.

Ah, I see... I wasn't aware this mechanic existed. Interesting, since my pet will attempt to cast his frostbolt on other mobs that end up being immune.

When I was there doing my felsteed quest, I noticed the same with my Felgurad, he refused to attack, or attacked in pretty erratic ways at those hydrospawns.

The reason is that before the dumbing down began, you had to run Dire Maul and defeat Hydrospawn in order to get the the Water Elemental.
So basically, its like asking the son to attack the father.

I tink you're confusing that with the vanilla Mage Water quest.

I'm referring to the one and only
Hydrospawn
. Not sure what you are referring to. :)

Arcane Aberrations
for my felguard.
