If your Ice Preservation March 7th is already Ascended, you don’t have to do it again for her Imaginary form!
Here are all of the Ascension and Trace materials you need to raise the new March 7th Imaginary unit in Honkai Star Rail. You can begin pre-farming a lot of these materials right now, too!
March 7th is getting a new 4-star Imaginary Hunt form. She will feature the same Path-switching mechanic as the Trailblazer, meaning you cannot have her Imaginary Hunt and Ice Preservation forms in the same party.
Officially, this version of the character will be known as "March 7th - Swordmaster."
March 7th - Swordmaster (Imaginary) Ascension Materials
 Thief's Instinct  Usurpser's Scheme  Conqueror's Will  Horn of Snow |
These are all of the materials that March 7th needs for her Ascension. Notice that this is the same as the Ice Preservation March 7th materials. This is because, like the Trailblazer, her Ascension and Level carry over as March 7th swaps between her Ice and Imaginary forms.
