So me and my cousin started talking about this new update on Wednesday (USA.)
There was a lot of stuff I didn't understand.

Most of the info came from (http://forums.spiralknights.com/en/node/83402/) <---here

Battle Sprites!

I really can't wait for the new wittle (little, for you grammar freaks) pets!
But what I don't understand is that can you have more than 1 pet? Or do you need like 2 other alts/accounts/characters?
Also I read a lot of different forums about the pets:

Drakons (Dragons, whatever)

Are said to be either OVERpowered or UNDERpowered.
And are like the 2nd best pet to choose from (Forums! Not my opinion)

Synx... Cat-thing (Floating angel cat.)

Okay... So no offense to the wittle angel cat.... Your weak.
This is what I see in different forums.
They say the beam is too weak and the defense thing is too short and has little area, and the heart thing doesn't work.
So this is the least liked pet (I still LIKE you cat!)

Masker-a-thing... (Ghost cow...)

This thing is the one that everyone likes -> I mean it's a COW! THAT FLOATS!
Mah damn gahd. People say the cow is so powerful.
So this is the best pet (now.)

So what I'm sort of wondering is that if OOO (3 rings) will sort of buff the cat and the dragon.
So they will become more POWERFUL (HAHAHAHAHA!)
But what I'm scared is that what if they debuff the cow!?
So I'm wondering if you already chose the cow, since it was the best, and now since the cat and dragon are better can we choose them again?
Also wondering if we can get 1 pet for free and buy the other two...

Other stuff...

About dying: What does Nick mean by can't share hearts?
If this means when you die friends can't revive you then: This is gonna get FUN!
And what will energy CE, be used for?
I like the difficulty change (:D) But will it give you more stuff in harder modes and less stuff in easy modes?
And about the loot.
* Does it mean that everyone will get the items
* Or does it mean that the person who steps on it will obtain it

Also can we buy Orbs of Alchemy?

Well thank you for reading (or Skimming?) this.

Edit: Please keep feedback about battle sprites and the items on the testing server in the appropriate threads. Thank you!
