Permanent Node on Wolf Bug

Another update fix but no news on the wolf bug? Im trying to build a Sabertooth build & cant. I have the permanent node on wolves selected. When I log into the game I get my free wolf but when I summon my sabertooth the wolf icon turns to howl & I cant summon my max companions. Im wearing the claw & a chitin helm that adds 1 to max companions. Taking them off as others have mentioned doesnt change anything for me. I still cant summon my wolves & no I dont have those passive nodes selected that only limit 1 companion.

To play i have to remove a skill pt from permanent node. Now my saber stays np. However when I zone I lose my wolves. I just got Evolution End. I have to take it off & put claw back on resummon my wolves. Then put End back on. This happens every time I zone. On level up I lose wolves as well. Saber stays. I have to repeat the above with amulet to get my wolves back.
