Nodusfall Weavers Explained

The trailer says the Divine of creation fell silent, forged the Weavers to seek the source of calamity, and then lost them to the mortal world before enlightenment. You are one of those lost Weavers. That is the pitch. The playable truth under it is a hero-based co-op hunter: you pick a named combatant with a weapon identity, four skills, one Divine Skill, and a cosmetic layer, then you take contracts against Dreadnodi.

If you only need a job chart, skip to roles. If you already know you want the healer, open Hexsworn. This page is the identity layer — lore, unlock rules, customization, and the four faces the booth actually loaded.

Lore without a twenty-hour recap

Official English copy places you on a mythic continent after divine authority collapsed. Dreadnodi corrupt legendary creatures; Weavers reclaim leftover divinity by beating them. Japanese press uses 織り手 (ori-te, “weaver”) the same way. The threads you see in finishers are not a random VFX theme. They are the metaphor the combat system is built on: you bind, you join an execution, you reweave a kill.

You are not a silent custom doll. Preview character select was a choice among designed heroes with MMO archetypes, closer to a co-op action roster than to a full-body creator. You can still dress them. That distinction matters for people who arrived expecting a Dark Souls protagonist or a Genshin traveler.

Unlocking Weavers

HoYoverse’s line to PC Gamer is the one that matters: characters are not obtained through random draws. The studio wants the core kit available through continued play. Cosmetic monetization is “an important avenue” under consideration. There is no published roster size, no pity, no 50/50, no sealed character you must skip a banner to afford.

Until a test spells the unlock path (story beats, hunt milestones, hub NPCs), assume you will earn faces by playing, then spend money only if you want a different coat. That is also why this wiki does not keep a pulling schedule. We keep codes empty on purpose.

The Gamescom four

Knight / greatsword tank. Male in the Western previews, claymore or coffin-scale blade, clash-centric. The person you want on a dragon’s mouth.

Archer / bow ranger. Gauge-based charged shots. Inven played this kit after a melee tutorial forced a different body on them, which is a hint that the onboarding Weaver may not be your main.

Second ranged / mage. Famitsu’s 魔法使い and GameRant’s second bow user may be the same slot described through different weapons, or two seats. Until names ship, call what you saw: a backline damage Weaver.

Hexsworn. Named in GameRant. Frost projectiles, underground ice wave, single-target heal, group heal, ice beam, green ring ultimate. The support seat.

Pre-reveal fan names that appeared on unofficial sites before 25 August 2026 are not used here. If they survive into a beta, they will earn pages. Inventing a bilingual table now would just freeze errors.

Customization and Styles

Outfits, hairstyles, and accessories were already on the four. Styles and skill combinations are the combat customization the press release promises. Divine Skills expand after boss kills, so two Hexsworns can diverge. Weapons shown: greatswords, swords, bows, and a stave or instrument for the caster. Forging from hunt materials is in the official progression blurb. There is no public crafting UI.

How to pick before a beta

Ask what you want to do on a noisy show floor or a first test:

• Hold a boss still → knight, then study clash in combat.
• Stay alive while learning telegraphs → Hexsworn.
• Deal damage without eating swings → archer.
• Flex later → wait for Styles, do not reroll an account that does not have gacha.

Then read getting started so the first contract is not your tutorial. Official art and socials stay on links.
