Genshin Impact – “Dire Balemoon” Arlecchino Details

“Fate grants favors to no one. Only those who would fight it with every ounce of their being may earn the right to challenge it.”
— Pierro, “The Jester”

Arlecchino is a Pyro 5-star character wielding a Polearm. She became playable in Genshin Impact Version 4.6. Through one of her trailers, we also know that her true name is Peruere.

We have known of her existence for a long time, and she was also a key player in many of the events in the Fontaine Archon Quest. Through the Fontainian stories, we find out that she is also the “Father of the House of the Hearth” to Lyney, Lynette, and Freminet.

As revealed by the Arlecchino drip marketing, she is a 5-star Pyro character. Her Constellation is “Ignis Purgatorius,” meaning “Cleansing Fire.”

Her Ascension Stat is Bonus CRIT DMG%, gaining up to 38.4% at max Ascension. Arlecchino's birthday is on August 22.

Who are the Arlecchino voice actors?

Arlecchino's VA for the English voiceover is Erin Yvette. Some of her previous roles include Snow White from The Wolf Among Us, Chelsea Stevens from Firewatch, Nightingale and Summer from Path to Nowhere, and Sophia and Yoko Hiromine from Shin Megami Tensei V.

Arlecchino is voiced by Mori Nanako in the Japanese voiceover. Her previous roles include Madama Butterfly from Bayonetta 3, Kirsty from Dragalia Lost, Figure from Soul Hackers 2, and Mary Jane Watson for the Japanese dub of Marvel's Spider-Man.

Arlecchino Kit

Normal Attack: Invitation to a Beheading

Normal Attack

  • Performs up to 6 consecutive spear strikes.

Charged Attack

  • Consumes a fixed amount of Stamina, dashing toward a nearby opponent and cleaving once.
  • Continuously holding this button will cause Arlecchino to consume Stamina and engage in up to 5s of high-speed movement.

Plunging Attack

  • Plunges from mid-air to strike the ground below, damaging opponents along the path and dealing AoE DMG upon impact.

Masque of the Red Death

  • When Arlecchino has a Bond of Life equal to or greater than 30% of her Max HP, she will enter the “Masque of the Red Death” state, where her Normal, Charged, and Plunging Attacks will be converted to deal Pyro DMG. This cannot be overridden.
  • When in the “Masque of the Red Death” state, Arlecchino's Normal Attacks will deal extra DMG to opponents on hit that scales off her ATK multiplied by a certain ratio of her current Bond of Life percentage. This will consume 7.5% of said current Bond of Life. Her Bond of Life can be consumed this way every 0.03s. When her Bond of Life is consumed in this manner, All Is Ash's CD will decrease by 0.8s.

Elemental Skill – All is Ash

Summons forth Balemoon Bloodfire, dealing Pyro DMG to multiple nearby opponents and performing a dash-cleave against one of them, dealing AoE Pyro DMG.

Opponents hit by the aforementioned attack will have a Blood-Debt Directive applied to them.

Blood-Debt Directive

  • Lasts 30s. Every 5s, it will deal 1 instance of Pyro DMG to the opponent. Max 2 instances. This DMG will be considered Elemental Skill DMG.
  • When Arlecchino uses a Charged Attack or her Elemental Burst, Balemoon Rising, she will absorb and clear nearby Blood-Debt Directives. Each Directive absorbed grants her a Bond of Life worth
  • 65% of her Max HP.
    The maximum value of the Bond of Life she can be granted through Blood-Debt Directives within 35s after using her Elemental Skill is 145% of her Max HP. Using the Elemental Skill again during this duration will restart the count on duration and the limit on the value of Bond of Life she may gain from Blood-Debt Directives.

As she sees it, not every grain of wheat that falls upon the earth will grow into an ear, while those who obstruct her, once burned to ashes, can certainly be used to nourish flowers.

Elemental Burst – Balemoon Rising

Arlecchino's great wing of Balemoon Bloodfire beats as she absorbs and clears Blood-Debt Directives around her. She deals AoE Pyro DMG before clearing the CD of All Is Ash and healing herself. The healing is based on her Bond of Life value and ATK.

It is commonly believed throughout Teyvat that moon phases other than the full moon are mere metaphors of ill-omen, used only by those who practice alchemy and astrology.

She saw this crimson moon in her dreams many times. Were those portents of disaster? Indeed they were, but the destined catastrophes belonged to those who enraged her.

Arlecchino Passive Talents

The Balemoon Alone May Know

  • While in combat, Arlecchino gains a 40% Pyro DMG Bonus and can only be healed through Balemoon Rising.

Agony Alone May Be Repaid

  • Blood-Debt Directives have the following characteristics:
    • Arlecchino will be granted a Bond of Life worth 130% of her Max HP when an opponent to which she herself applied a Directive is defeated.
    • 5s after a Directive is applied, it will be upgraded to a Blood-Debt Due. When absorbed, it will instead grant Arlecchino a Bond of Life worth 130%.
    • A Bond of Life created in the aforementioned ways cannot exceed the original limit on the value of Bonds of Life obtained through All Is Ash.

Strength Alone Can Depend

  • Arlecchino gains 1% All Elemental and Physical RES for every 100 ATK she has in excess of 1,000. The maximum RES increase she can gain this way for each is 20%.

“All Rewards and Retribution, Mine to Bestow…”

  • Blood-Debt Directives are now already Blood-Debt Due when first applied.
  • When Arlecchino absorbs such a Due, she unleashes Balemoon Bloodfire in front of her, dealing 900% of her ATK as AoE Pyro DMG and increasing her All Elemental RES and Physical RES by 20% for 15s. This effect can trigger once every 10s.
  • You must first unlock the Passive Talent “Agony Alone May Be Repaid.”

“You Shall Become a New Member of Our Family…”

  • Increases the Level of Normal Attack: Invitation to a Beheading by 3.
  • Maximum upgrade level is 15.

“For Alone, We Are as Good as Dead…”

  • Increases the Level of Balemoon Rising by 3.
  • Maximum upgrade level is 15.

“From This Day On, We Shall Delight in New Life Together.”

  • The DMG of Balemoon Rising is increased by Arlecchino's ATK multiplied by 700% of Arlecchino's current Bond of Life percentage.
  • For 20s after Arlecchino uses All Is Ash, both her Normal Attacks and Elemental Burst gain 10% increased CRIT Rate and 70% increased CRIT DMG. This effect can be triggered up to once every 15s.

Arlecchino Official Introduction – Solitary Balemoon in a Sky of Fading Stars

“Fate grants favors to no one. Only those who would fight it with every ounce of their being may earn the right to challenge it.”

— Pierro, “The Jester”

To this day, Arlecchino still recalls that night when she was first appointed as a Harbinger.

Up the stairs and down the long gallery, with naught to see through the windows but a world of ice and snow without end.

The biting wind wailed loudly, now as mirthful laughter, now as somber farewell—

With a start, Arlecchino came to, the hallucinations of her memory mingling with the sounds of real-life conversation that surrounded her.

The hearthfire burned with vigor, its gentle warmth pervading the room, and its red light glowed on the children's faces, lighting up their innocent, unaffected smiles. If some uninformed passerby were to stumble in at this precise moment, they would surely mistake the scene before them for that of an ordinary, happy family.

But just as Arlecchino raised her steaming cup to take a sip of scalding-hot black tea, the clock began to chime — and within an instant, the laughter and cheer that filled the room were banished. The flames flickered so that for a moment the light faltered, the faces of all present cast in somber expression.

Placing her cup back down, Arlecchino stood up, and in a calm, measured tone, called out several names:

“Chapleau, you're with Lyney. Retrieve the required intelligence. Foltz, you and Filliol are on guard duty. Stay back and tend to the Hearth…”

“Yes, ‘Father.'”

Without a redundant syllable, nor a hint of hesitation, they answered as one.

Not long after, the fire had dwindled and the house fallen utterly silent, with nothing to be seen but a single shaft of infiltrating moonlight, peeking through a gap in the curtains upon a cup of gradually cooling tea.


Arlecchino will be a playable character in Genshin Impact Version 4.6. scheduled for April 24, 2024.
