Sorry to burst bubble, but essentials is not in this update. Neither is Dark Sun. Unhappy I am, I must say.

Psionic Power and some Dungeon and Dragon magazines was the only update

However, Essentials stuff is listed in the Compendium. Knight is listed as a separate class from fighter. Interesting....
 

I can confirm that it's indeed not there, having just updated.

Damn. I didn't notice they were listing Compendium updates separately from CB updates. My mistake.

Y'know, this is getting a little annoying... I thought the whole point of skipping last month's update was so they could fit the Essentials stuff into this month.

Yeah, the only thing out of HotFL that appears to have made it were the updated feats and powers, but none of the new feats, powers, or classes made it in. :(
 


All that time and they introduced some new bugs into the equipment functionality.

Quartertaffs cannot be wielded in two hands, preventing one from getting the bonus from the Staff Fighting feat.

Superior Ki Focuses are off-hand items instead of ki focus items. Equipping them in the off-hand doesn't seem to do anything. You can't equip them in the ki focus slot.

So much for my staff-fighting monk idea...
