    My bet is either the Live Letter (doubt it), or a Dev post when the Benchmark is released

    In the past, they have updated the mega thread. I think they will add them after the Benchmark to be honest as MaethusXion said

    I'm hoping they include Male Viera and Female Hrothgar info too.

    Based on the little scraps we have on Hrothgar lore their name scheme seems to be Norse, based on their queen.

    Well, we can make inferences once the benchmark is released (I think).

    From what we know of previous incarnations of the Viera, their names likely skew toward Scandinavian. The Hrothgar sound like they use old Norse.

    We can't, since the benchmark doesn't include naming. I'm curious when they plan to post the viera and hrothgar names.

    I don't remember exactly how long it was before 3.0, but yeah, we didn't get a huge amount of heads up.

    So disappointed they put so much more effort into the Viera... and I'm only here because I'm out of oil from trying to get Scharnhorst in Azur Lane...

    Well we have another Live Letter in a couple weeks, so potentially something around then?

    We only know one Viera (Fran) and one Hrothgar (Queen Gunhildr). Sadly, it means we can't infer much from Viera and Hroths may be Scandinavian. I think for HW Au Ra naming conventions were given...2 weeks before release?
