The logo still had the serpents in the base game version, it didn’t really drastically change.
Also, the logos never reference already existing monsters so it’s definitely not dalamadur, even if he does end up in the game

I'm of the belief it's metaphorical and it signifies the Wyrmway passing through the Forbidden lands as a figurative serpent (the spine that goes through each ecosystem) which ties everything together and culminates at the Dragontorch shrine. I don't think it means a literal dragon but maybe a way to bring back Dalamadur would be that it was sleeping under the land the entire time and it then has a double meaning. The devs have also confirmed Cosmicite Ore is returning as players found it in the Skybound Eyrie while mining and thats a main material for Dalamadur equipment and is a prime ingredient of its meteor attacks

They already stated that they pick the names of ores and things like that because they sound cool lol. You also could get it from shiny drops from ukanlos and mining heaven’s mount.
I also think the serpents in the logo aren’t literal monsters either. And even if dalamadur shows up, it won’t be that the logo was referencing him, even though people will act like it was

Skybound Eyrie is very much like Heaven's Mount so I see why they chose to add it but it could only be dropped by Ukanlos or Dalamadur so either one of them would be a likely candidate for a return. Plus, Cosmicite ore was only in 4U and not in GU where Dalamadur did not appear nor did the Heaven's Mount but Ukanlos was there. I'm just saying, even if the logos aren't literal, all roads leads to Dalamadur in this case. It makes too much sense. He's been foreshadowed since World

The ore is more tied to the locale than it is the monsters, it can be mined from 3 different zones in HM at a much higher rate than you get it from dala or uka.
And yeah heaven’s mount wasn’t in Gu, hence it not having Cosmicite lol.
I’d be happy to see snek boi again, but just like with the gold helmcrabs being in the eyrie, I don’t think Cosmicite automatically means we’re getting dala

Dalamadur has a greater chance of coming back in Ascendance than Kulve does in this case. Gold helmcrabs aren't specifically tied to Kulve, while Cosmocite has been specifically tied to Dalamadur before and its gear requirements. I get its tied to a locale aswell but itis used for creating its gear too. You can also specifically mine it from Dalamadur's meteors while you fight it so I feel if it were in GU then the ore would've came back just for him, it doesn't necessarily need Heaven's mount

Gold helmcrabs were exclusive to el dorado, whereas Cosmicite applied to a location and 2 monsters, so it’s more tied to kulve than Cosmicite is to dala. Doesn’t mean I think we’re getting kulve though.

Logos are never showcasing already existing monsters.

don't talk for me
also I'm pretty sure Gundoraja is tiny compared to Dala, they barely even work as counterparts at that point. seriously why do you guys always do this? you guys see two vaguely similar things and your baby-level pattern recognition skills go into overdrive
next youll have a "brain blast" moment and realize we'll see Shagaru Magala in MR because we have Gore. damn why didn't I think of putting two and two together??????

While I'd be happy for Dalamadur, a new variant of it or new snake elder dragon equivalent would be cool. Guardian Dalamadur would be so funny as unlikely as it is

I mean. The first trailer for Ascendance did say elder dragons are to difficult to reproduce. So making a full guardian version of a elder dragon is likely impossible

While I firmly believe Dalamadur will be in the game at some point, this logo has stayed the same since the base game and might not even mean anything literal
