  2. #2

Arlecchino’s Normal Attacks account for nearly all of her damage, so levelling them matters most. Both Skill and Burst are much less important, though Burst can be useful to level if you rely on it regularly anyway for sustain.

Arlecchino rotation

Due to Arlecchino’s damage and conversion being permanently tied to her Bond of Life, she can flexibly be swapped during her field time if required. That being said, since Arlecchino is almost always doing most of the damage on a team, doing so should be done with caution as to whether losing additional Arlecchino Normal Attacks is worth the swap.

Arlecchino’s combos are a good damage gain, and (primarily in the case of Melt) occasionally a requirement for the team to be functional! Thankfully, her baseline combos are easily accessible, provide a strong damage floor, and often will make her more fluid to play. Still, Arlecchino has a very high ceiling for optimization both in terms of rotation adjustment and combos. Experimenting with her various options is a good idea to figure out how far you can take her.

  1. Use her Skill at the start of the rotation to mark enemies
  2. Allow her mark to upgrade for 5s, casting teammate abilities in the meantime
  3. Swap back to Arlecchino, absorbing her mark with a Charged Attack
  4. Use Normal Attacks until her Skill cooldown ends
  5. If sufficiently relevant, (re)cast ally abilities as needed
  6. Only use Burst as a last resort emergency button

Arlecchino FAQ

3 questions

What stat does Arlecchino scale on?

Arlecchino's abilities multiply ATK. That is read from the scaling rows on the Elemental Skill and Burst, not from the ability description, so it reflects what the game actually multiplies rather than what the text mentions.

What is the best weapon for Arlecchino?

Symphonist of Scents is the closest fit on the data: it is a 5-star polearm with CRIT DMG as its ascension stat, and its passive acts on ATK. Lithic Spear is the best 4-star alternative.

Which artifact set should Arlecchino use?

Crimson Witch of Flames. Its 2-piece bonus is: Pyro DMG Bonus +15% Its 4-piece bonus is: Increases Overloaded, Burning, and Burgeon DMG by 40%. Increases Vaporize and Melt DMG by 15%. Using Elemental Skill increases the 2-Piece Set Bonus by 50% of its starting value for 10s. Max 3 stacks.
