[White Lion] addons, renown,ui advice plz

[Leamass]

Novice as lion, just wanna try this class. i have several questions and didnt found any solutions below.
1. Am i must aim for this renown build or what? https://builder.returnofreckoning.com/r ... ;0;3;0;0;0
2. "Pet assist" or "loyal pet" addon adds more brain to da kitty? Or can i go "loner" tactic outside city, is his damage still good?
3. BiS weapon are wat? many sov lions i have seen in city runs with different choises. Bastion looks nice in theory but i dont know, is that bis or not
4. And about gear. Some mix off sov + def sov + sent acc , yep? Strengh until cap with bottle and Weapon mastery and armor(mb some wounds) talismans the rest sockets, am i right? Just seems like 1-2 aoe build dont need many ArmorPen because 3 tactic...
5. Last one. How to hide/replace defauilt kitty icon and hp bar? i can hide only myself xd cause try to use "pure", simple and beautiful bars but dat default cat distracting me. Any replacer exists? or some pure analogs?
p.s. sorry for bad eng. not my language x)
