I had no idea such a penalty existed. I don't see why a mage would be penalized for using a pet to kill a mob. That would be like putting an xp penalty on Warriors who use a weapon. It's an essential part of playing a mage, and it's not like having a pet makes the game super easy. It just makes it possible to be played.
I see the suggestions about dismissing the pet to get xp and all that, but frankly, I don't feel like we should have to find loop-holes just to play as one particular class.
