Skill Combo:
6(N3D) or 3(N5D) rotations can be used, with 6(N3D) being preferred in teams that utilize vaporize or melt reactions.
The general combo is:
- Skill
- Team buffs
- CA
- 6(N3D) or 3(N5D)
Team compositions that include vaporize or melt teams should prioritize the 6(N3D) rotation for optimal results.
Arlecchino is a Pyro DPS that focuses on dealing damage through her Bond of Life mechanic. It should be noted that while in combat, Arlecchino cannot be healed by any source other than her Elemental Burst. For this reason, a shielder is strongly recommended within her teams.
Regarding Weapon Choice:
- Staff of the Scarlet Sands: If Arlecchino is not triggering Vaporize or Melt, do not use an EM Sands with this weapon and it ranks lower than Staff of Homa.
- Vortex Vanquisher: Ranking assumes you are shielded. Without a shield, this weapon performs similarly to White Tassel [R5].
- Deathmatch: At higher refinements, this weapon will perform similarly to Staff of Homa.
- Ballad of the Fjords: In Vaporize teams, this weapon performs slightly better than Deathmatch.
Regarding Artifact Choice:
- Desert Pavilion Chronicle (4): Don't cancel Arlecchino's Charged Attack too early to ensure that it hits opponents for the passive effect.
- Echoes of an Offering (4): This set performs similarly to Desert Pavilion Chronicle (4) if your ping is consistently lower than 200.
Regarding Talent Priority: Arlecchino's Elemental Skill and Burst do not need as high of an investment as her Normal Attack talent does.
