Of course, their special weapons are also going to be added and up for grabs in new weapon banners. A host of new events are also scheduled to run for the next 2 weeks to keep the players entertained. Check out all the new stuff below! 

Camellya – New 5-Star Resonator

• Crimson Blossom – Attack the victim, dealing Havoc DMG (basic attack DMG), and then enter Blossom Mode. This attack can be executed in mid-air. Unable to move in Blossom Mode. Basic and Heavy Attacks Pruning has been replaced by the Basic Attack Vining Waltz, which involves chaining together four successive hits that deal Havoc DMG and are called Basic Attack DMG.
• Twining (Outro Skill) – Attack the target, dealing Havoc DMG worth 329.24% of Camellya’s ATK. After using Forte Circuit’s Ephemeral, the following Outro Skill Twining deals additional Havoc DMG equal to 459.02% of Camellya’s ATK.
