I use the following frame (dimensional) parameters to consistently crop things for the wiki:

• For any of the rotating images, the field stands out on its own from interference just fine, so it doesn't need a frame to help isolate the target area for cropping.

• File:NovastersImages Frame Accessorylist.png - For the main Accessory List
• File:NovastersImages Frame inspectwindow.png - For Inspect Window shots
• File:NovastersImages Frame inspectwindowbody.png - for JUST the full body in the inspect window. Place the bottom just above the rank title.

• File:NovastersImages Frame overworld.png - For Overworld full body shots (these fit into the below image in a row of 3)
• File:NovastersImages Frame overworldandinspectwindow.png - For Overworld+Inspect visualization

Remember to keep it floating, fellow image croppers~!

I chose the drakon. I love dragons. So. Much. Reached level 100: 02 August 2013. What I chose as ultimates: concussive firebolt, backfire barrier, and explosive firestorm. This gives a nose horn, neck spikes, and wings, respectively.

• You get ultimates for your skills at 90, 95, and 100, for 1, 2, and 3. Each skill/move or whatever you want to call it has TWO ultimate forms that you PICK from, and can change with a Reset Star. You qualify for an ultimate skill if the skill has maxed out skill points (yes, you eventually get enough skill points for everything), and on the level-up using an Ultimate Evo Catalyst, which you need to level up to 90, 95, and 100.

Vanguards: you already have catalysts you need, and one ult catalyst. You need 3 ultimate catalysts total. So buy two from the supply depot. Your pet will change forms at 15 and 50. The ultimates add things to the 50 form. Like accessories really. Your pet will change material preference at (assuming I remember correctly) 15, 30, 50, and 75. ( 1* till 14, 2* till 30, 3* till 49, 4* till 75, and 5* until 100). This is rough, since for some changes in preference a catalyst is used - at 15 and 30 - so material isn't needed for that. But for the other preference changes they are - so you'll probably mess up your math. Crafting in sets of 10 doesn't hurt - you can always trade to someone that needs it.

How I fed my Battle Sprite:

Fed it 5* materials, raw, like flame souls and reaper ribs, until I reached 50 - using 4* peppers or 3* torchstones to top it off whenever possible. After reaching 50, I fed it the preferred material for general feeding - these are orbs and stars. You don't need to spam craft motes, dust, or stones for yourself.

Doing jelly king elite is a great way to get your pet hungry efficiently. Arcades and non-boss missions are good too, since they have arsenal stations to feed at, whereas boss missions do not - so you have to leave to feed if you're doing FSC and want to be efficient with heating/forging something else.

Yes, battle sprites take heat, but it's a very small amount. It contributes to their appetite far more, and when fed, the heat-to-level bar goes up. More efficiently with higher star items, or preferred items. Don't feed preferred items for general feeding - only to level up - until after 50. No, the rarity of the item (drop tables) does not factor into how much the pet is fed - so don't go feeding it shadow lair materials, or joke about feeding it a book of dark rituals.

I did not track how many orbs and stars I used. But it is a large number, ~75 or more for each. Probably a lot more than that. Like I said, craft in sets of 10. Can't go wrong with that. Find someone that chose a different sprite than you, and establish a 1:1 trade for the materials you both need. Very few people have enough minerals to take care of themselves. Find older players that didn't arcade-dump their minerals. I'm reserving my minerals for my friends and guildies at discount/1:1 trades, so I probably won't be selling to strangers (not the NPCs lol) much - unless my prices are met: 1500 for 1*, 3000 for 2*, 4000 for 3*, 5000 for 4*, and the market is in flux for 5* atm. I have been selling stars at 10k each. No, I will not negotiate these prices, and NO, I WILL NOT GIVE THEM FOR FREE TO BEGGARS. GO AWAY. Respect my months of carrying heavy minerals on my poor back all around the clockworks >:(.

Perks: you get them as you level. Pick one to represent at a time. No, they do not affect the entire squad, just you. Think of it as a permanent trinket slot. Skill points: get them as you level. You eventually get enough to max out all your skills. Feel free to conserve them for a specific skill, even though you get them all eventually. Harness: get at the lab. Don't buy one your pet can't use. You can buy the next level as soon as you buy the previous level. These change a Battle Sprite's attack type.

Be patient. Love your battle sprite. I was on vacation when I leveled my lovely drakon, named Seeker, so I had tons of time to do it. Hence, my sprite is finished early - due to lots of time right after they were introduced, as well as being a shiny-hoarding person that rarely NPC trashed materials or arcade dumped minerals.

Something fun to do: wear mercurial jelly or demo, and have your sprite's perk be Swift Steps II. It is very fun >:3.

• This is where I brag. Don't read if you don't wanna. Obviously :P
• My favorite outfit: Arcane salamander suit: cool dragon wings, dusky bomb bandolier, ghostly aura. Wyvern scale helm: prismatic glow-eyes, fancy bolted vee. I call it "Ghost Dragon."
• I have transmuted every chroma and dragon item in the game. I have obtained every Scale recolor so far. I wear a different outfit for every prestige, so they all get attention. I have a few other outfits too, vertical vent/cat tail/tailstails stuff.
• I have at least one of each type of dragon wings. Except iron. *eye twitch.*
• Personal Color: Ultramarine.
• Eyes: Delicate.
• Height: Normal.

• Found the arsenal source code on User:Merethif's user page while randomly scanning userpages. I don't know you at all, but your coding with png is super neat. If you don't want me to use the coding base, please tell me and I will remove it right away.
• To all the people who sold me some of the UVed items and dealt with my haggling. :D
• To all the people that make the game a better place.
