It is 75% not 50% XP penality. You have to do 51% to get 100% XP. less than 51% you only get 25% XP. In a group it all goes away.
On a Mage you are pretty much screwed solo. Your Fire pet is not going to hold agro. And the Earth pet can't kill crap. And if you dismiss the pet you
will be OOM all the time as a Mage. No better for a Enchanter. Charm pet you have to do the same 51% crap.
A Necro or a Shaman pet not too bad. They don't do that much damage that you can't overcome. A Druid Charmed pet you can outdamage it with dots.
A Mage is the one that is not really worth playing anymore. Chanter second worse on solo. I think it totally sucks. But Oh its Classic!!
