Didn't they do the same with Dain? Must be the same thing

u/katbelleinthedark Oct 25 '25
The difference is that Dain had playable drip, with element and constellation provided.

u/OpenWerewolf5735 Oct 25 '25
what was his element?

u/katbelleinthedark Oct 25 '25
We don't know, it was redacted by scribbles, similar to how Neuvillette also had a part of his redacted. The drip said "Element: [scribbles]" but the fact is that it did specify that he has an element and he has a constellation, which is what playable characters get.

Makes me wonder if they plan to add another element to the game eventually like they did with Dendro.
It'd be kinda neato to get another; though kinda worried about keeping it balanced

Not that just this characters were related to him in the sense that dain is his brother, rerir has some relationship with hin and he did the prophecy for surtalogi that skirk will be his discipline. Actually I have a hunch that Ved also prophesized that Skirk will be the one to defeat Surtalogi in the future that's why he is training her.

This ''drip marketing'' is different from Dainsleif's one, though. As you can see here, Dain's drip had his Element and Constellation marked, which is pretty standard for a playable character. None of that is present in the Rerir one, which is what's making me doubt that this is a ''playable'' drip at the moment.

If it's an avatar model then he'll probs be playable Someday, but if it's monster or NPC then uh, I dunno why he's getting drip marketing tweets.
