Right now, Luuk Herssen is more of a story figure than a playable character, but he’s clearly being set up as an important part of the Lahai-Roi arc. He is expected to be a 5-star Spectro character, and if you’re planning ahead for when he finally becomes playable, following this guide will help you be prepared.
How he fits into the story
Luuk Herssen appears in the Version 3.0 main quest as a Lahai‑Roi scientist working on advanced systems, including the Academy Defense System. He’s seen observing robots and tech, and later checks on Rover’s condition, suggesting he has a medical or analytical role in the faction.
From the cutscenes, he comes across as calm, observant, and closely involved in Lahai-Roi’s research and security infrastructure. This background suggests that, as a Resonator, he may lean toward a support or utility-focused role rather than being a pure DPS. That said, knowing Kuro Games’ design approach, there’s still a strong chance he could end up as a DPS as well.
Keep an eye on the official 3.1 banners and patch notes when they drop around February 5, 2026, as that’s when his exact role (DPS, support, etc.) and element will finally be confirmed.
How to prepare for his release
Even without knowing his full kit, you can start preparing to pull for Luuk Herssen and level him up quickly once he’s released. As a potential 5-star character, it’s a good idea to save Stellar Jades and pulls from the current banners so you’re ready when he arrives.
Meanwhile, focus on farming general upgrade materials and stockpiling currencies like Gold and Resonance Crystals. These resources are useful for most 5-star Resonators and will make building him much faster once he becomes playable.
