New Skins

Redeemer Kwang [Rare]

Kwang joins the Ranks of the Redeemers in the most fine, celestial armor.

Maskless Redeemer Kwang [Rare]

And if you feel like the helm obstructs too much of Kwang's fabulous look, there’s also a maskless skin for you to choose.

Note: Both of those skins are full price initially; however, once you purchase one, you can get the other at a lower price, much like a variant.
