Low-grade Sangvis Ferri combat unit. It has poor combat ability but it can be easily mass produced. Typically used in defense and search operations. They attack by physically ramming their targets with great force, and their combat power in large numbers should not be underestimated.

Appearances

Dinergate units make their first appearance in chapter 2-1 and later on appear in various story, emergency and midnight chapters. They typically appear in moderate or large size groups of themselves or supplementing other units. Players will encounter the Xmas Dinergate and Dinereindeer during Christmas events, and the Dessertgate during White day events.

Gameplay

Dinergate units have low individual health and low evasion, their short attack range is compensated by their moderately fast movement speed and very high damage up close, individual attacks can devastate even an armored SG type T-Dolls.

Dinergate swarms can be difficult for low rate of fire RF dolls to deal with. In a SG/MG formation if MG dolls does not have sufficient ammo chain to finish off the wave and are forced to reload for the second salvo, the Dinergates may capitalize up on this reloading time frame and devastate the frontal SG units.

A notable example of a dangerous enemy combination appeared during Singularity E3 was the Guard/Dinergate enemy echelon, where high HP Guard units walked ahead of a large amount of Dinergates, if one were unable to defeat the Guards in time, the player's echelon will suffer heavy casualty due to the sheer amount of Dinergates rushed towards their T-Dolls.

The most effective way to combat Dinergate units is using AR and SMG type T-Dolls who have continuous damage outputs, or capable of dealing area damage by launching/throwing explosive/molotovs. One can also deploy SG/MG formation with sufficient ammo chain. However the most effective way to deal with Dinergate swarms is to make use of an   Airstrike Fairy, since they have low individual HP, airstrike fairy's flat damage skill across the combat field will defeat all Dinergates simultaneously.

Lore / Story involvement

Using T-Doll AR M4 SOPMOD II M4 SOPMOD II      and her weapon as comparison, a standard model of Dinergate should measure roughly 30-40 x 20-25 x 25-30 cm in dimension excluding exterior attachments.

After the Butterfly Incident, Dinergates are being used by Sangvis Ferri as combat units, though their combat performance is quite mediocre and they are mostly used as scouts and sentries. While their primary mean of attack is stated to be ramming their enemies,[1] in-game they are seen shooting the energy weapon on their back from a short distance.

A Dinergate captured and modified by AR M4 SOPMOD II M4 SOPMOD II      was used during Continuum Turbulence to provide an emergency replacement body to SMG RO635 RO635     , much to her dismay. SOP-II kept the Dinergate after RO was rescued and named it “Banana.”

Dinergates can allegedly be modified into pets,[1] which has successfully been achieved by HG P7 P7      with her captured Dinergate named “Chopsticks”. Chopsticks has made many appearances in both official and fan made content and comics, notably in G&K Chopstick News, where Chopsticks hosts interviews with various contributing artists of Girls' Frontline and inquires about character settings and backstories. AR M4A1 M4A1      also own a pet Dinergate in Girls Frontline: Healing Chapter. Starting 2067, an increasing number of Sangvis Ferri units, apparently produced in former SF plants reactivated by third-party manufacturers, started to appear in purified regions. In 2070, in the Green Zone city of Odessa, a case of a pet Dinergate gone haywire drew attention to a black market dedicated to modified and unsafe SF machines.[2]

The Tarantula is an upgraded version of the Dinergates. Destroyer was once changed into a gigantic Dinergate called Cerberus.

Trivia

  • Dinergates are often called "dogs" by the player base and are one of Girls' Frontline's mascots, used in promotional designs and merchandising. They often appear under one form or another in Dorm furniture or as part of character costumes, like the bat Dinergates in P7's Demonic Gunslinger Nun costume or the goldfish Dinergate in SMG MP5 MP5     's Sleepless Flower costume.
  • Unfortunately, rogue Dinergates cannot be acquired at the Rescue Station and kept as pets in the Dorms (yet).
    • However, Dinergates often appear as part of the completion bonus for 5-stars furniture sets, such as the normal Dinergate in the Sangvis Ferri set, the Dinereindeer in the Christmas Gospel set, the Dinergates in a longcoat in the Halloween Town set, the Xmas Dinergate sleigh being pulled by a Dinereindeer in the Christmas Cottage set, the festive Chinese Dinergates of the Swimming Fish, Flying Geese, Snowflake in Tea and Hometown Reminiscence sets (the last one has an ice sculpture of a Dinergate), the hard rock Dinergate of the Music Festival set or the fishing Dinergate of the Campfire of Burning Passion set.
  • The physical strength of the Dinergates is speculated to be relatively high: a furniture piece introduced in 2018's Mid Autumn Festival is a Japanese style Mikoshi mounted on the back of four dinergates. The Mikoshi itself can carry a T-Doll and move at a relatively high speed inside the dorm.
