Why did Scaramouche get a different design in Genshin Impact? Well, that's what I'll be talking about in today's blog post! There will be some spoilers though, so proceed with caution! Ever since Scaramouche was introduced, fans knew that he would one day be a playable character. However, everyone theorized he would be an electro user because of his clothes and connection to the electro archon. But when he was finally released, his outfit was completely different. Why would his outfit change if he already had an in-game model? Well, there's a few reasons. Firstly, Scaramouche ended up being an anemo user. He didn't have a vision before, so his old design wouldn't have matched his given element. His new outfit also reflects himself more, instead of being connected to the electro archon. Along with this, his old hat was too big. His new hat is slightly smaller, which makes it better for gameplay and exploration. A bigger hat would've gotten in the way, and probably clipped through pretty much everything. So giving him a slightly smaller one keeps the iconic look, but makes the clipping less likely. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. As always, I will be including pictures of both of his outfits below so you all can see what he looks like. Enjoy!
