Game Mechanics: Pet taking half exp

[Sinestria]

Mage pets are pretty OP. you should not be trying to out damage your pet, ever.

Either 1)reclaim your pet when the mob is at low hp and finish off with a low level nuke or full XP

2) just toss your fire pet a occasional heal and let him destroy all. While taking a XP hit you will still solo faster than most

3) duo with any other class and the penalty is negated.
