Summary
SeveralGenshin Impactleakers are finding out new things about Arlecchino. She’s a highly anticipated character as one of the Tsaritsa’s Fatui Harbingers. Her design in “A Winter Night’s Lazzo” caught many fans' eyes, and said fans will be delighted to hear that leaks of Arlecchino are bubbling to the surface. While everything is subject to change, one thing many leakers agree on is thatGenshin Impact’s Arlecchino is most likely a five-star Pyro polearm.
The head of the House of Hearth may follow the trend a lot of Fontaine characters introduced by having HP mechanics in her kit. She’s also speculated to be the first ever scythe user inGenshin Impact. As exciting as this may be, if it comes true,Genshin ImpactHu Taofans may have a reason to celebrate, since it could have an HP stat with a DPS passive and fit her aesthetic.
Genshin Impact Leak Shows Arlecchino’s Potential Role in Battle
Arlecchino’s Leaked Kit
Arlecchino was leaked to be an Overloaded reaction DPS. Many in the community are wondering why HoYoVerse is taking a niche turn with their units, but this is workable for players. With the recent release ofGenshin Impact’s Chevreuse, at her highest constellation level, she’s a wonderful support for Pyro and Electro units, giving them a 60% DMG buff. Chevreuse could be a staple for Arlecchino teams once she’s playable.
Arlecchino was also teased to work similarly toGenshin Impact’s Furina: having two states to switch between for combat. One state has her draining enemy HP to restore it to herself. But her other state is much more vicious according to leaks, as Arlecchino would be draining her own HP to deal big numbers in combat. Allegedly, her elemental burst does massive AOE Pyro DMG and applies something called “Abyssal Mantle” to herself to absorb the whole team’s HP and do more DMG in a bigger AOE.
Her leaked passive talent accelerates her attack speed when she loses HP, but it’s not currently known by how much or what the maximum speed she can reach is. However, DPSs that have an increase in speed are invaluable as this means there’s more potential for more instances of damage. Arlecchino’s playstyle will be easy to understand so long as players know how to work her as an Overloaded DPS, one of the manyelemental reactions inGenshin Impact.
Explaining How Arlecchino May Work
Overloaded happens when Pyro or Electro meet and causes some minor AOE damage. It cannot crit, but it does raise with level and Elemental Mastery. Arlecchino fans will want to get her to her highest level, so they can invest more in her talents and levels. When it comes to being able to build Arlecchino, if the current leaks are accurate, players will want to put her in a 4pcCrimson Witch of Flames artifact setto maximize her Overloaded damage.
When it comes to weaponry, she’ll obviously have her signature weapon as a choice, but if HP is what she scales off of, there are a lot of good choices for her.Arlecchino has good weapon choices now, but if things change from now to her release, there are still going to be good options outside of her signature.Genshin Impactnever releases a character who is solely relying on their signature weapon to do good damage. Some viable options at this time are:
