During the latest broadcast, the developers showcased the distinct personalities that define these new additions. Ryoku is described through a lens of "venerable stoicism," suggesting a disciplined, perhaps more defensive or tactical playstyle that mirrors the calm before the storm. In sharp contrast, Vena embodies "vengeful bloodlust," a description that points toward high-aggression mechanics and a kit likely focused on DPS and close-quarters carnage.
For those deep into the lore, these Protoframes aren't just skins; they are the precursors. Adding them to the game adds another layer of narrative weight to the 1999 expansion, bridging the gap between the ancient Tenno traditions and the grittier, retro-tech roots of the infection. While their specific abilities haven't been fully detailed, their character archetypes provide a strong hint at the meta roles they will fill.
Whether you prefer the calculated approach of a stoic warrior or the chaotic energy of a bloodthirsty hunter, these new frames are set to shake up the current roster. Keep an eye on the official channels for a deep dive into their specific modding potential and ability kits as we get closer to their release.
