Arlecchino Leaks
Several Genshin Impact 4.6 leaks have surfaced regarding Arlecchino, also known as the Knave, despite her release still being a few weeks away. Many of these leaks are considered reliable, making her one of the most anticipated playable characters in the game. The anticipation for Arlecchino began even before the release of Fontaine and her introduction as an NPC in the story. Now, HoYoverse has officially confirmed Arlecchino’s debut in Genshin Impact 4.6, signaling the end of the long wait for players eager to utilize the Pyro unit.
Despite the developer’s lack of disclosure regarding the forthcoming character, numerous leaks have been circulating within the game. Reliable sources have shared details about Arlecchino’s animation set, certain abilities, and even her rumoured new boss fight mechanics. Additionally, leaked information regarding the required materials for Arlecchino’s Ascension in Genshin Impact has surfaced, allowing players to begin farming them in advance if they choose to believe the information and wish to prepare for her release in late April. This could potentially expedite the process of levelling her up.
Arlecchino’s Vision, Rating & Weapon
As previously stated, HoYoverse has officially confirmed that Arlecchino is a Pyro unit. This information can be fully trusted as it comes directly from the developer. Leaks, on the other hand, have revealed that Arlecchino wields a polearm as her weapon in Genshin Impact. This means that her regular attacks will inflict physical damage, while her Skill and Burst abilities will unleash elemental Pyro damage. Although not officially confirmed, rumors and her overall status in the game strongly suggest that Arlecchino is a 5-star unit.
Arlecchino’s Animation & Skill Kit
Arlecchino’s leaked animation set is particularly remarkable due to the presence of a glitching idle animation.
Arlecchino’s regular and charged attacks, as well as her elemental skill and burst, all have distinct characteristics. The attacks resemble a dance, while the elemental skill involves summoning red Pyro thorns to deal damage and close the distance between Arlecchino and her foes in Genshin Impact.
Arlecchino’s gameplay kit is enhanced by her Elemental Burst, which holds significant value. It commences with a brief cutscene and showcases her unleashing a powerful Pyro attack that affects a wide area. Nevertheless, this aspect is considered the least crucial. Following this, Arlecchino is reported to transition into a secondary state.
The rumoured secondary state, harnesses the power of her Elemental Burst to imbue her Normal and Charged Attacks with Pyro, enabling her to unleash elemental damage more frequently. This unique ability reduces her reliance on her Elemental Skill to apply Pyro to adversaries. Interestingly, Arlecchino’s leaked Burst appears to share similarities with Hu Tao’s Elemental Burst, although it remains uncertain whether it will deplete Arlecchino’s HP upon activation.
The leaks have not provided specific details regarding Arlecchino’s gameplay kit. It remains unclear which stat will determine Arlecchino’s damage output and what additional bonuses will be activated in her Infused state. Despite the absence of this information, it appears that Arlecchino is being designed as a primary DPS character with significant on-field impact, particularly because her Burst is rumored to enhance her normal attacks with Pyro damage in Genshin Impact.
