I haven't played red here but 99% of my gameplay back in the day when I played was on Vallon Zek. It was so easy to immobilize the pet (root/fear/snare) and then a mage was so easy to kill with no escape other than gate. No shadowstep, no rune/manaskin. And even worse most pvp always happened at zonelines and that = mage with no pet.
NPC vs PC resists are off here where level is less of a factor than it was on live. Green/Light Blue NPCs can land spells on you with relative ease. Consequently, Earth Pet root lands (landed?) very well.

Furthermore, elemental nukes also land better than live (IMO, a good thing) so resist mods aren't nearly as big of a deal. Lastly, AC might not be properly functioning which increases pet damage.
