Build for Arlecchino in Genshin Impact

Everyone knows that Arlecchino, one of the Fatui Harbingers, is called "Father" by the orphans at House of the Hearth. A girl with a tragic past, who had only one friend in her life and had to fight her to the death and, in a fit of rage, released all her powers to take the title of leader and guide the little ones to a safer and less cruel, although equally difficult, path, preventing others from becoming someone like her.

She debuted in version 4.6 as a playable character and will be back in version 5.4, after the Mavuika banner and Citlali’s and if you didn't get the yours at the time, this is your chance.

If you have everything ready to receive her in your account, but don't know exactly how to build her, we'll give you some tips for the best artifacts, weapons and teams and, if you have questions, leave a comment.

Raised in the House of the Hearth, Peruere was a victim of the cruelty of “Mother”, the former leader, Crucabena, who subjected the children to deadly fights among themselves. And in one of these disputes, Peruere was forced to face her best friend, Clervie.

Clervie was a girl full of hope, and had the dream of one day being free and contemplating the stars around the world. However, Crucabena, who was her biological mother, reserved even more severe treatment for her. Her intention was to make an example out of Clervie, to discourage any other children who dared to think of running away.

Clervie was Peruere's friend and the only person capable of getting the future Fatui Harbinger to open up about her feelings. The two looked out for each other, both in training and during missions. However, the confrontation between the two was inevitable.

Clervie believed that death was the only way to achieve her freedom. She wished for this to happen at the hands of her friend, an action that devastated Peruere. Overcome with fury and despair, Peruere unleashed the dormant power of her Blood Moon lineage. This access to power allowed her to defeat Crucabena, take control of the House of the Hearth, and eventually become one of the Fatui Harbingers.

Best Artifacts

While Arlecchino's Elemental Burst does decent damage, most of it still comes from her Normal Attack as she infuses Pyro into them through her Elemental Skill. Since she primarily uses her normal attacks to deal damage, Gladiator's Finale is one of Arlecchino's best artifacts.

This set grants you 18% ATK with a 35% damage increase on your normal attacks. On the other hand, Shimenawa's Reminiscence is very close to achieving the same results as Gladiator. However, it requires some of your energy, which is essential for your gameplay.

Finally, Crimson Witch of Flames will always be an excellent option for any Pyro DPS because it gives them everything they want. The set grants Bonus Pyro Damage to Arlecchino and improves her elemental Pyro reactions in Genshin Impact.

As for players who don't have any of their best sets, equipping two Attack Percentage pieces and two Bonus Pyro Damage pieces or 4 Attack Percentage pieces is a viable option until you get what she needs.

Regarding Statistics, you will need Attack Percentage on the Sands, Pyro Damage Bonus on the Goblet and Damage or Critical Rate on the Circlet. The same in substats, Attack, Attack Percentage, Damage and Critical Rate are essential. Elemental Proficiency and Energy Regeneration also help.

Best Weapons for Arlecchino

Arlecchino needs items that further improve her gameplay, which depends on the Bond of Life mechanic, which “locks” part of her HP in exchange for additional damage. With this part “locked” it’s not possible to cure it, except through her Elemental Burst, which restores HP and severs the Bond of Life.

Unsurprisingly, the Crimson Moon's Semblance, which is her signature spear, is definitely Arlecchino's best weapon, as the spear's abilities and status complement the character's kit. As an option, the Primordial Jade Winged-Spear is very close to the signature weapon for Arlecchino, as it grants her the same stats with a passive version of its ability, but slightly different.

What makes Primordial Jade Winged-Spear and Crimson Moon's Semblance great for Arlecchino is the amount of Attack Percentage and Critical Rate they can add to her stats. But if you don't have any of those, the Staff of Homa is also close and is known to be a universal weapon that works on any spear DPS in Genshin Impact.

Finally, Deathmatch, Prospector's Drill, and Blackcliff Pole are Arlecchino's best 4-star weapons in Genshin Impact. Each weapon is unique based on the stats they give Arlecchino:

• Deathmatch grants Critical Rate and Attack Percentage;

• Prospector's Drill gives you a ton of Attack Percentage and Bonus Pyro Damage;

• Blackcliff Pole is a last resort F2P option with some Critical Damage and Attack Percentage stats;

Best Teams

Arlecchino stands out as a main DPS and you can make a good team focused on elemental reactions like:

• Vaporization, with Arlecchino as the main DPS, Yelan applying Hydro off the field, Bennett healing and increasing Attack with his Elemental Burst, and Zhongli with his shield and reducing enemy resistance.

• A mono-Pyro team, with Arlecchino as main DPS, Xiangling with off-field Pyro damage and Bennett as support with healing and increased ATK. Kazuha or Sucrose as CC (crowd control) and amplifying the damage.

• For Overload teams, place Arlecchino as main DPS, Fischl or Raiden Shogun as sub-DPS applying Electro off the field, Chevreuse providing additional support, and Bennett or Kuki Shinobu for heals.
