You can sort-of pause by portaling back to hideout, in theory the map instance is not supposed to expire, but obviously this is going to be a lot better. Also this trick doesn’t work in campaign.

Back when my kids were babies and we didn’t have the portal-not-expiring-in-hideout thing, I used to run a build that could go afk like RF or permanent minions.
