NOTE: The Imaginary form of March 7th can be accessed through the original March 7th, similar to how you change Paths for the Trailblazer. It is not a standalone character.

This new form will give March 7th an entirely new kit and Eidolons. The Hunt March 7th will focus on dealing damage, and some of her kit will depend on the Paths of her teammates.
