Notable Rewards

• Wind God and Thunder God is, quite frankly, an awful summon with a Call that only deals damage. Wind players should instead earn Anat from the Casino. Brand new Light players may find some use from its Aura if you don't have any better.
• Thunder God Spear has a big Light ATK Up weapon skill and a decent Charge Attack effect which makes it a great filler while you're building a Luminiera grid. If you do not have a Light element spear in your reserve, you may want to keep it for Light Holy Saber/Spartan or Bishop/Sage.
• Wind God Sword has a big Wind ATK Up weapon skill and is an SSR Wind Sabre. Aside from being an easily obtainable SSR Wind sabre, it is not remarkable. Note that Sephira Emerald Sword is an alternative Wind sabre that is obtainable from Arcarum.

New Character

Johann (Event)
	Edit rating Role: Healer/Support Very simple healer kit; one of the oldest designed event characters in the game. Difficult to sustain a whole party with his single-target heal in longer battles. Brand new players may appreciate a free Light healer, but his mediocrity makes him easily replaceable.
