Do pets currently take 50% of your exp?

Since we are in the early stage of classic EQ where pets originally do not take any exp away, does it happening here?

You need to do 51% damage to get full exp... Just burn that into your memory.

I remember Necromancer pet being god with dual daggers.
It shows that no one really were playing back in 1998.

Keep listening to the pretend to be classic EQ'ers

Mage fire pet was super OP by itself, then you throw in chain casting them and it was god mode.

Not saying they arent powerful, saying how it was.
Was barely any mage the first couple month because the class wasnt done.

It just seems sad to me. Mages don't get any better over time (compared to say Rogues or Monks, both of which start weaker in classic but become amazing by Velious).

All Mages have to look forward to is being subpar group DPS and subpar soloers (unless they're a one in a million epic mage). On raids they're CotH and mod rod bots.

Classically they would have at least had a brief window of awesomeness, but now they'll never have any "moment in the sun" at all.

It really felt like they should have had the reverse arc of Rogues/Monks (ie. the Druids and Wizard arc): awesome in classic, but then they fade.
