Summoner Tidbits

• Your pet will faint when its HP reaches 0. However, it will revive after a certain period of time. For example, Wanda revives in 30 seconds while the other pets revive in 60 seconds.
• Summoners will have a variety of skills with some interesting effects. For example, there's a skill called "Pet Sympathy" that increases the pet's damage and HP recovery when you fulfill their requests for Resta or Shifta. It appears that your pet will request these two things based on its current situation in battle. There's another skill called "Subclass Grow Up" which increases your subclass' EXP gain. Then there's "Dear Master" which randomly lets your pet receive damage that would have otherwise killed you. Has a 30% activation rate at level 1.
• You can place candy in the Candy Box to customize your pet's abilities. Initially, certain spots on the board are blocked by Jelly Cubes and Caramel Cubes. Jelly Cubes dissipate when you level up your pet. Caramel Cubes can only be removed using an item called a Caramel Crusher.
• You can level up your pet through Egg Synthesis, but there's a cap on the number of times you can perform this action in a given period. Eventually as time passes by, you'll be able to perform synthesis again. As previously mentioned, it works in a similar way to feeding a mag.
• It appears that there are other types of Eggs you can use, like T-ATK Eggs, and DEX Eggs. We don't have any details on them at the moment.
