[09/16] Savara Full Moon Festival Rerun, Tamarinne Banner, and New Arena Season!

Overview

Hello, Epic 7 players! Today is a rather small patch note; the Savaran Thieves Under the Light of the Full Moon Festival will be rerun again this year, along with Tamarinne banners, Ken banners, and a new Arena season. That’s really all there is this week.

Meanwhile, in Epic7x itself, Mort’s page will finally be updated, now that we’ve had 2 weeks to test him out post-patch. No more of the infamous “Mort will be a great unit!” section!
