Hi guys.
I thought I'd make a thread which hopefully gets filled with positivity!
Over the last 2 years there can't be any doubt that 000s has definitely made changes to Spiral Knights. Yes its hard to believe for some, but going through almost all the patch notes, I can confidently say there has been many.
Watching this game evolve into what it is now has honestly kept me interested and although I took a long time away from Spiral Knights some of the stuff that has gone on in my absence is definitely drawing me back. Most notably the pet update. It definitely makes you feel as if you are starting the game over. It gives us, the older experienced players, a purpose....a goal. Not only do we get a new 'sidekick' but the amount of extra content surrounding the pets is mind boggling. This for me has to be the biggest and best update for this game!
I would love to read what you guys think is the best update 000s has made for Spiral Knights. There have been many, but out of all of them which one do you think was the most intuitive and gameplay changing content of them all? Which of the updates reignited those first time feelings when you started playing Spiral Knights? What made the update special?
This isn't a suggestion thread. It's an opinion orientated discussion to see which is the post popular update in Spiral Knights history.

I agree that the 2013-07-30 update was the biggest since launch, but not because of the battle sprites. It's because of the massive, sweeping changes to the economy --- no more mist energy, free elevators, forging, etc.
