I'll answer my own question!

Yes XP elixir does affect pets.

Tested on two level 1 pets (one with elixir and one without) to see how far each went after doing the bard's tale quests. Both tests were on level 16 character.


Edit:

Sorry guys, Samhayne has said on another thread that pets don't get the benefit of xp elixirs.

Which character are you playing on that you're seeing this?

Also, keep in mind if you have an exp elixir that your pet doesn't get the benefit of the elixir.

Well I'm not going to argue with that, so there it is.

Only thing I can do is report my test results, which showed the pet with an xp elixir active on my character levelled further than the pet without it. Kept all other variables the same (both pets started from level 1, same level character, same quest i.e. Bard's tale).

Other factors not controlled for? Changes in the new patch? Developer oversight?

Edit again:

I should disclose that I tested this on two separate characters, both were level 16's, one (rogue, levelling Horton) without elixirs and the other (warrior, levelling Flap Jack) with a 7 day elixir. Just in case that's of interest to anyone else trying to answer this question.
