I'm 100 hours in now but just recently found out the benefits of using my pets (of Harvest Dawn) as cheap inventory enhancement. Now I realized that pets apparently have no weight limit which almost feels like an exploit to me. Is it really intended that way? That's true at least for Hylaeus (little dog), not sure about the other pets or ingame companions yet.

There is another beneficial side effect here: While you "trade" with your pet (it's actually not really "trading" as the exchange can be completely one way) you can see the values a true trader would pay for your stuff.

Quite handy, very welcome. But again - really intended?
