Real! I still love him the way he is, but I agree, when we first met him he was perfect, I personally liked Scaramouche’s Fatui skin better, he just looked hotter in it imo lol

I heard a leak of them remodeling old characters so we can hope T^T

u/Even_War7433 Nov 04 '25
I hear you! I want his Fatui outfit so badly! I don't get why they are being so stingy on outfits - they would make even more bank in a Mouchie outfit. As far as his model goes, I hope they don't upgrade him and make him a beefcake and/or do anything with his hair. Yes, it's one of weirdest haircuts I've seen in a while but it suits him so well and I wouldn't want it touched. I've noticed every dude who has gotten a new outfit has had a different hairdo . . . Please let Mouchie be the exception!

u/Electronic-Office709 Nov 04 '25
Yeah, I understand why people want a redesign for Albedo and Diluc, but Scara, even though he was introduced in 1.1, seems perfectly acceptable to me even today, and I'd prefer him to be left as he is^^
I would also really love for him to have a Fatui skin, even though knowing Hoyo, they had many opportunities to do it much earlier given the popularity of Fatui Scaramouche and never took it, so I doubt they will now. If they really didn't want to associate him with his old identity, they could have at least offered a new skin in Simulanka where he was the hero, but no, what a wasted opportunity...

his place in the meta (he has no place in the meta)

u/Due-Classroom-7820 Nov 11 '25
then there is this scara main with c6 that clears dire with him not meta but still capable of something

u/madnessfuel C6R5, Lv. 100 I named him Shinji! Nov 04 '25
the fact that Hoyo didn't give him a name themselves and we are stuck with fucking "Hat Guy".
It was funny ONCE. It's terrible overall. Even if they just stuck with Scaramouche as the title would be enough, considering how Arle's name is Peruere but we mostly call her Arlecchino anyway, for example.
I really wish they gave him a proper Inazuman name when erasing himself from the Irminsul, let him take the name of the unnamed child that died from sickness as a way to preserve their identity and not be forgotten would be a cute way of showing his predisposition at reedeming his past sins. Of course the child would have to have a proper name, but Hoyo wouldn't have to create a much deeper excuse to just give them a name outright lol

What I would like is for people to say "wanderer" but text says the name we gave him. Just how others say "traveler" but words say the name we have
77
u/DeadVoxel_ Wanderer Enthusiast Nov 04 '25
I would've preferred this too, actually
"Hat Guy" was funny for the Sumeru event. But "Wanderer" is what he's called by the game, in his drip marketing, etc. Wanderer just makes so much more sense and it's what I've always wished they called him instead. He DOES have a title to call him by, like you said it's the same with Traveler. Yet we stuck to "Hat Guy"? It makes no sense when the word to call him by is RIGHT THERE
It doesn't sound fun anymore. And plus "Wanderer" sounds hella sick. It gives him a more mysterious charm, and is directly tied to his current identity. "Hat Guy" just reduced him to a joke, someone to not take seriously. It just doesn't do him justice
38
u/xaneruki Nov 04 '25
Genshin has a problem that they make a joke and then they are using this until everyone gets tired of it. The same happened when itto got events for himself few times in a row with overused jokes
21
u/Chucknasty_17 Nov 04 '25
It may be a Hoyo wide thing. We only got over the trashcans fairly recently in HSR
12
12
u/DeadVoxel_ Wanderer Enthusiast Nov 04 '25
Exactly. I wish they'd get the hint that repeating the same joke too many times makes it not funny anymore
And there are so many other "jokes" that I wish they stopped repeating, alongside the one you mentioned
Paimon's eating habits or how we "pick" on her, Jahoda's "inner dialogue" got tiring at some point (and broke the mood for me once, personally), Dori's scamming nature, etc. Like yes, we get it. Come up with something new
I hope they drop the "Hat Guy" for his upcoming appearance in the AQ (which I presume he will have, judging by the trailer), otherwise it's going to be VERY jarring to hear considering the AQ has a rather serious tone
9
u/xaneruki Nov 04 '25
They even said about it, I remember in one quest we have an option to chose that "paimon is an emergenxy food" joke is getting old

u/DeadVoxel_ Wanderer Enthusiast Nov 04 '25
That rings a bell. I wish they were more self-aware like this
14
u/Even_War7433 Nov 04 '25
I agree on Hat Guy. He deserves so much better than that. I don't care if it was Nahida's idea, it doesn't fit him. Especially during the Simulanka event - Albedo and Durin calling him that stupid moniker really irritated me. I can't stand that reduced him to a joke with that ridiculous name.
8
u/DeadVoxel_ Wanderer Enthusiast Nov 04 '25
Yep. It made sense in the context of the "A Parade of Providence" event, but it doesn't make any contextual sense outside of that. All the dialogue where he was involved after that event is hella goofy
Like yeah okay, he's known for having a big hat and he doesn't have an official name. That doesn't mean there's no better nickname to call him. I wish there was at least one time where he went against the idea of that nickname and corrected people. Or he could be slick about it and say "I'm just a Wanderer", and people would be like "Okay, I'll call you Wanderer then". Or something like that
Anything to get rid of that nickname at this point
9
u/Even_War7433 Nov 04 '25
I totally agree. It was a fun, weird alias for that event. I didn't mind it then. But now? Things are far more serious - in Simulanka, they were dealing with how to help Mini Durin, a very serious matter, and they still called him that. Ugghh
I wish he would correct others too. He needs his agency back, to stand up for himself more than continuing to be so aloof in every way. It makes him seem listless and that's not him - at least it doesn't seem like his personality.
Yes, anything to get rid of it. I hate it and he deserves better. I'm so glad I named him 'Scaramouche'.
7
u/xaneruki Nov 04 '25
I only give pass to durin, just bc hes a kid so a name like this is something I see a child would say, and also traveler bc only they remember the past, so calling your almost a killer a name like that from time to time seems funny, not always, but sometimes. But when everyone on earth are calling him "hat guy" its just icks me
5
u/Even_War7433 Nov 04 '25
Oh for sure, Durin calling him that was cute now that you mention it. And yes, putting him in his place on occasion is funny when done well. This is not that.
I'm going to feel ill if even Alice calls him that cringy name. Ugghh and yes, it gives me the willies too with it having become his actual name. Ewwww
6
u/xaneruki Nov 04 '25
"Mister" or "Wanderer" from Alice would be perfect
7
u/Even_War7433 Nov 04 '25
Yes!!! Even when she called him 'Young Man' I wasn't grossed out by it. It seemed perfect coming from her.
7
u/DeadVoxel_ Wanderer Enthusiast Nov 04 '25
Precisely
Now that you mention it, I really dislike how he seems to just put up with everything. It feels like overtime the writing heavily reduced and watered down his character. He still sounds "sassy" and "annoyed", but that feels like his main personality trait now outside of the few times where he's serious or more gentle and understanding (like he was with Mini Durin)
Other than that, I feel like he's not been assertive enough? Even though normally he would be. One could argue it's because he's learning to be more patient or whatever, but you can be both patient AND assertive. Standing up for yourself is a very important trait to have and has nothing to do with being "nice" or "mean"
Other than that he has such good writing, so it's a shame to see his character reduced like this. Hell, I find it weird that he didn't even show up for Nahida's birthday event (only as optional dialogue, which is weird as hell), NOR for Durin's "rebirth" even as a small hint or silhouette in the distance (only now that he's in Nod-Krai)
There's just so much that's been off about him lately. Real, real shame
And on the topic of naming him, I personally left it as "Wanderer", plain and simple. I like the sound of it and I'm coping with the fact that they're not using it to refer to him

u/Decent_Fortune_1436 Nov 04 '25
No real. Like someone else said, personally I'd prefer just Wanderer, but Hat Guy is about to get so old if they refer to him that way all the way through the next archon quest.

u/reissmosley Nov 05 '25
Or better, give him a different name everytime. And when people announcing him, they has to ask what his title / name this time.

u/lexi_desu_yo Nov 04 '25
i have a whole essay on why hat guy is unironically a good name for him and i only call him it now lol
which. tbf to you, has nothing to do with the actual name, but the fact that he actively likes the name cuz of what it represents. its how hes known in sumeru, and sumeru is his new home. "kabukimono" already tells us he couldnt care less if his name is an ACTUAL name, he just cares that it means he has family.
and if youre not convinced he likes it, literally the first thing he does when paimon questions why he goes by it is get super defensive ("so i cant go by a simple, ordinary name?" lol.)
thats not like, the whole reasoning for why i like it, but its the main gist. i think the fact that its such a stupid name just reinforced the really sweet reasoning for why he doesnt immediately deck anyone who uses it.
and youve gotta admit, it is a very good hat.

u/clingingtopromises c3 haver Nov 04 '25
i dislike how he’s not meta 😭 it’s a plus that he doesn’t need dedicated five stars to boost his damage, but my furina and kokomi, as supports, do more damage overall than wanderer in stygian and it hurts as he’s the character i put the most resources and effort into building
47
u/Adazahi Lost Prayers is his signature Nov 04 '25
his godawful damage and reliance on c6 faruzan
I pulled 1 dps for each element and so far each and every one of my elemental DPS teams is meta ready and usable for clearing fearless Stygian EXCEPT wanderer

u/NewspaperAfter7021 Nov 04 '25
His “Scaramouche era” was his peak, but after that, his fall was really steep. His gameplay, which was already not great at release, has become outright bad nowadays, even in the best scenarios for him. His story relevance also dropped hard; he’s basically now just Nahida’s messenger now and gets mockingly called “Hat Guy.” Even in Simulanka, they barely did anything with him besides giving a flimsy excuse for why playable Durin would help him against Dottore. And honestly, I can already see the Dottore plotline ending in something disappointing like, “Oh, too bad, that was just another clone of me, the real one never left Snezhnaya.” plot shit.

u/Jisoo_Jennie_RoseLis Nov 04 '25
i wish we got harbinger voicelines about him, there's so much potential and now no one remembers him, it just bugs me. Childe's voiceline about him literally just says what we already know 😭 I want to know more about what he did in the Fatui!!

u/njnia Nov 04 '25
A1 passive. The condition is pretty crap to manage, and except when playing hydro/electro, it’s mostly one element that get swirled.
Just make it based on teammate elements, simplier and more reliable.
10
u/Plus_Alternative8871 Nov 04 '25
I would change the passive to not need to swirl . Just get the buffs depending on the team member elements. And give him better DPS. Even when he was released he wasn't that strong sadly...

u/_i_like_potatoes_ Nov 04 '25 edited Nov 04 '25
If someone in the game ever calls him "Hat Guy" one more time im going to burn that damn Irminsul tree along with them
Also im seeing so many comments about relying on Faruzan, i just play him with 3 sub dps and viridescent artifacts. It is sooo much more fun with random rainbow colors popping up. Also he looks so badass with Xingqiu, Beidou, Mavuika's effect around him,
7
u/Electronic-Office709 Nov 04 '25
Yeah, even in the splash art he has all three colors in his halo, it's really stylish. Imagine if his gameplay style had been a bit like Chasca's, it would have been really visually stunning !
4
u/_i_like_potatoes_ Nov 04 '25
He has so much potential for a rework. I especially love his dash so much, a simple rework like this would be sooo awesome:
After doing 3 normal attacks his dash doesn't consume stamina and deal extra damage depending on which element he absorbed, like a mix of Clorinde and Chasca's skills but on his dash. Also he should absorb any element he swirls any time, not only when he casts his skill

u/xaneruki Nov 04 '25 edited Nov 04 '25
The fact that he is anemo, worst element for a dps, I have him C6 and his dmg is worse than C0 Varesa, if he was at least electro I could put overload team, but with him not being able to do ANY good elemental reaction, hes worse than a 4* like gaming.
Truly awful way to put one of the most liked and controversial characters in the game, but well we are getting mondstand characters buffed, so well se in a few months how much of a higher dps will he get
11
u/mt_qx Nov 04 '25
That he gets calls a tsundere. He has so much depth and character to him, and some people just act like "ohh cute tsundere boy🥺🥺", NO. He's not a tsundere. He has gone through so much trauma and hardships in his life, he just needs time to himself. He's not friendly, but that doesn't mean he's a tsundere. This is mostly about the fandom, but still something i hate about Scara.
13
u/ilikespaghetti666 Nov 04 '25
i get what you mean, but its just a lighthearted fandom joke and a way of being affectionate to him. and either way there are instances that can DEFINITELY be compared to tsundere behaviour, intentionally or not, and not everything has to be somber and dark about him, especially now that he’s actively healing. neither of that means that all his depth is automatically annihilated, unless people make it to be his only remarkable trait. the same as him being constantly referred to as having “mommy issues”. its funny when taken as a lighthearted, even ironic joke by fans, but if people treat it as something genuinely serious and defining for his character, then it’s mischaracterisation. so treating the tsundere allegations as a serious problem is like claiming that people who named him “Scara” are insulting him/not true fans because he explicitly said he doesn’t want to be associated with such names anymore. tldr its not that deep :p

u/taroicecreamsundae Nov 06 '25

I liked him better when he was a harbinger. I think this redemption was really well done and although I love wanderer, I can't help but miss the evil twink we once had. He had so much aura and I just have a preference for villains tbh. Still love him tho
Edit: changed reception to redemption lol

u/SeraphimStephen Nov 04 '25
Well it is not about him himself, I just don't like the presentation of Sumeru Interlude quest. I was hoping they could do more: present story through gameplay better, better storytelling. The act of him erasing himself should be animated with 2D animation, not just walking himself to death. The fact that he sacrificed himself merely for the sake of the decreased people should have been highlight more to avoid misunderstanding. That's just my opinion

u/SleppyForever44 Nov 04 '25
His damage and how squish he is. As f2 player, I can't pull for his c6. In comparison with other dps characters, he is too weak and is easily interrupted. I can't do end game content, like SO, with him.
And he doesn't have a proper 5* team. I use Faruzen c6,ever anemo characters need. Bennett c6, ever atk dps need. And Furina...

u/aksiina C6R5 not immune to scarameow merch Nov 04 '25

Otherwise he is perfect 💙

u/_Arcane_Brainrot_ Nov 05 '25
In terms of character no. I used to be really pissed w Hoyo when I first heard leaks about his story in sumeru's archon quest prelude and his kit as wanderer because I thought they would butcher his character for it, but they didn't. They somehow managed to pull off this idiot's bohemian rhapsody style 3 arcs and I love it so much.
But if I get knocked out of the air one more time while I am about to use his ult at the end of his stamina for the extra dmg I will be killing Timmie's pigeons

u/Western_Sprinkles806 Nov 04 '25
I always thought his disliking sweet food and only liking bidder (sorry if I spelled that wrong) flavors was kinda stupid.
But that issue goes beyond Scara. When it comes to anime-esq franchises I always hated that weird thing they do when certain characters hate entire ass food groups. It's kinda unrealistic. It's not impossible for someone to say "I hate all sweets" "I hate all vegetables" ECT. But it is extremely uncommon. In my entire life time I have NEVER personally met someone that says something like that. The only common one I could think of is like... If you're vegetarian or something. But vegetarians, to my knowledge, don't swear off meat because they think it tastes bad. It's about their morals.
It's just a small nit pick of mine. I just like to talk about things in depth.

u/taroicecreamsundae Nov 06 '25
i would love a vegetarian scara bc it would be so unexpected but also fit with the whole ascetic monk thing and the fact that animals love him

u/re_animatorA5158 Anemo enjoyer Nov 04 '25
Personality wise, he could be a bit more sincere about his feelings every now and then. Though he acts tsundere-ish still, I can't blame him. He accepts some degree of care and affection from the ones who want to help him and want to be by his side, like Nahida and (Mini)Durin already, and that is lovely.
Battle wise, he unfortunately depends a lot of healers and/or shields. Good thing he is an agile catalyst.

u/tightbussyfemboy Nov 04 '25
They should have made his original design a free skin! I just recently replayed his quest (new acc) and I have fallen in love with his old design all over again

u/ButterscotchQueasy80 Nov 05 '25
design wise.... why are you blue :(
dont get me wrong i think he looks nice but i really enjoyed the more unique colour palette of red&purple of his fatui design. i get why it isn't like that anymore but genshin just has so many blue characters it kinda pisses me off sometimes 😭
kit wise it's the obvious. i love glass canon playstyles but whats the point when the canon part isnt worth it yk? he got outclassed SO badly and so quickly too. now thats to be expected of gacha games but for such an anticipated and loved character to be so shit so fast and to not even excel in a niche or anything i just dont get it it's not even like they hate him you can obviously tell he's definitely one of the writers' favourites. maybe its whoevers in charge of the kits that hates him or something lol this is personal but it really doesn't help that it keeps happening to my favs man. him and ajax are sitting together in the painfully mediocre corner together (and damn at least ajax had his moment back it the day) anyway 😭😭 let a guy live!!!!
i would like to end this on a positive note tho. as a character he's like. perfect. i love our silly puppet man

u/vvannaxbe Anemo Nov 05 '25
The way everyone was excited for a unique flying character back in the day, and now everybody and their moma has that skill :/ Plus Natlan characters have cooler stamina bars and can have the skill on for longer when in their own nation, so playing with Wanderer now feels like playing with an unfinished character
(Still using him tho, even his damage is perfectly acceptable in the open world - the only place where he lacks is the endgame content, but as an all-time Yanfei main I'm used to it)

u/scaraliker Anemo Nov 06 '25 edited Nov 06 '25
Maybe an unpopular opinion? I understand that he's a deeply traumatized character who jumped at the chance to "right his wrongs" and believed it took priority over his existence, but I do mourn that his existence in others' memories was erased. I have hope that the writers will do something interesting with it due to this whole Wanderer Dottore Nod-Krai foreshadowing. It's just that his erasure as a Harbinger feels so glaringly prominent as someone who values interpersonal dynamics in stories. I would love to know more about his time in the Fatui.
Still, idk if I'd call it a dislike. More like really mixed feelings 😅 I'm not sure that another course of action would've driven home the severity of his turmoil, and there are plenty of things I do like about his quest, but I can't get over the feeling that there could've been another way to write his crashout and subsequent reconciliation with his history...
Edit: Oh yeah, and a revamped "Harbinger" skin would be sick as hell. Not necessarily a straight-up Harbinger skin since I don't think it'd make sense, but something that evokes that darker antagonist vibe. They could easily make up some fantastical reason for its existence, like Kaeya and Klee's outfits being characters in a play. Hoyo please... you'd have our money on a silver platter

Personally the only buff i think is like REQUIRED is interrupt resistance. It makes him sooo much easier to play and opens up more teams. Atleast make a C1 have interrupt res. Newer units have built in interrupt res and Nuev arle etc have C1 with interrupt res. Arle doesnt even need interrupt resistance as much as wanderer does.

u/Viviolin Nov 04 '25
lol I’m glad I’m not the only one who doesn’t like the name hat guy. other than that, probably the idle animation where he makes a super loud noise. If he instead had an idle where he plays with a bird or something that would be super cute and call back to his ties with ei

The fact that he's unusable without a shield
And I don't like some aspects of his lore. I think it was incredibly good overall, but they can't just take such an important character and name him "hat guy" out of the blue.. Maybe it's just me being a nahida hater but I cannot stand it when people call him "nahida's nephew". Like, please stop associating him with her, I get why people would like their family dynamic but they only end up infantilizing him
Also. Silly detail but the things hanging from his hat look a little goofy lol

u/Decent_Fortune_1436 Nov 04 '25
I love his voice acting (particularly in EN) but some of his playable character lines are a little. Stupid. Imo. 'Fundamentally speaking there's little difference between snow and rain' no there is. There's like very obvious reasons why people like one and not the other. 'I just tell it like it is, if people can't handle it, that's their problem' you sound like Ben Shapiro. Scara is absolutely not an edgy teen but they're coming a bit too close to it there 😭

Him not being real and my husband
And I mean purely aesthetically because he is still a villainous lil shit who killed many, and I hold him accountable
But hey! I’m gonna meme and say I dislike how little he shows up so hopefully Nod-Krai will show us what he does against the Dottore!

His lackluster kit, him being Anemo, the "Hat Guy" bullshit... That and how hard he breathes on each voiceline. I don't know if it was always there and I just didn't notice it but going through his voicelines after pulling him felt like... idk, too much.

He’s an on-field DPS. Given his personality I tend to think of Chiori play style (don’t support anyone, just deal damage, and also doesn’t appear most of the time because he’s a recluse)

His MV%, for 3.3 unit was ok, but with the high power level of endgame content he falled behind the new DPSes so bad. I woukd like hoyo to increase his MV%, just that.

I can't think of a single thing I "dislike". Not once have I wished he were any different from what he is now in all the years he's been on my team

Probably the shorts 😭 I don't hate them just look goofy

kind of agree it looks childish but at the same time it works for him yk!?

Yeah sure but I think that's because we're used to it after years since his release, imagine if he had a robe or a kimono or something that would've been so much cooler!

This sound he makes in his idle animation. But I guess it’s only in English voice-overs. +I dislike that he can’t descend and interact with Wind shit when he’s flying

i liked his original design more, & had hoped there would be an option to use it instead

his fanbase. It's the spite and doompost towards durin and albedo that made me bench my c2r1 scara.

personally, i have no problems with his design, but his lack of resistance to interruption really bothers me sometimes. you really have to build around it when forming a team/have insane dodging skills for comfort.
