Genshin Impact version 4.6 has officially launched across all platforms, including PS4, PS5, Android, iOS, and the Epic Games Store.

In this update, HoYoverse finally introduces Arlecchino, the mysterious Fourth Fatui Harbinger.

Known as “The Knave,” Arlecchino becomes a powerful new ally with extraordinary Pyro abilities.

1. Who Is Arlecchino?

Arlecchino is the Fourth of the Eleven Fatui Harbingers and currently serves as the director of the House of the Hearth.

Based on lore from the Genshin Impact fandom, Arlecchino is referred to as “Father” by the members of the House of the Hearth, whom she calls her “children.”

2. Blazing Pyro Powers

As a 5-Star Pyro (★5) character, Arlecchino comes with unique fire-based abilities and mechanics.

Her combat style revolves around the “Bond of Life” mechanic, which prevents enemies from receiving healing.

However, this polearm-wielding character can also convert Bond of Life into increased attack power.

A special Bond of Life bar appears over her HP bar. When the Bond of Life reaches or exceeds a certain percentage of her max HP, Arlecchino enters an aggressive combat state that boosts her Normal Attacks and grants Pyro DMG that cannot be overridden by other Elemental Infusions.

To maintain her Bond of Life, Arlecchino can apply and absorb Blood-Debt Directives from enemies. Due to her unique Talents, she can only restore her own HP through her Elemental Burst during battle.
