New Playable Character
Arlecchino - 5-Star Pyro Polearm
| Element | Pyro |
|---|---|
| Weapon | Polearm |
| Description |
|---|
| "The Knave," Fourth of the Fatui Harbingers. A poised, ruthless diplomat. To the children of the House of the Hearth, she is their feared yet dependable "Father." |
| Kit |
| When Arlecchino's Elemental Skill strikes opponents, it applies Blood-Debt Directives to them for a period of time. When Arlecchino uses a Charged Attack or her Elemental Burst and it hits an opponent with Blood-Debt Directives, she will absorb and clear nearby Blood-Debt Directives. This will grant her a Bond of Life worth a percentage of her Max HP. Arlecchino enters the "Masque of Red Death" state when the value of her Bond of Life is equal to or greater than a certain percentage of her HP, where her Normal, Charged and Plunging Attacks will be converted to deal Pyro DMG which cannot be overridden. |
