Let me preface this by saying I'm currently still downloading and am super excited to try Mabi-Pro, but have not been able to yet!

That said, one of the things that irritated me about Mabinogi is the time restriction on pets. This arbitrary time limit was designed to necessitate the purchase of more and more pets via the shop. Since this is not the goal of Mabi-Pro, is it at all possible to remove this restriction and has/is it being considered?

This won't be removed. You can obtain more pets by playing the game and collecting red coins.

If the timer were to be removed though, i'd have to thoroughly insist on raising the price of each pet no less than 5x its current. As it stands, i think it would honestly be good to reduce red coin drop rate and possibly up the prices a bit.

Coins are ridiculously easy to obtain, and the only time you normally keep pets out to the expiration limit is when you're training the pet, doing generations, or doing exploration in an area with the chests/artifacts spread way the flip out. And you normally only do that last one, for something like a skill book, so it's usually limited to one or two days out of a week, to obtain the book and then you're done with it. Generations and even pet training are similarly restricted, in that you do them basically one time, or for a set period of time, and you're done. So running out of time shouldn't normally be an issue unless you're going to try to afk with your pet out. (i've done that a time or two on live unintentionally)

Do remember you can use your pet to watch your personal shop.

Can we at least get the timer removed while playing as our pets? That's the one thing holding me back from spending a few hours every once and a while just goofing off as my pet with folks.

Oh yeah, i did forget you can do that. I've never used anything but the brownie, cuz i can safely afk as well as being reusable until the timer expires.
