Skill Combo: 6N3D or 3N5D rotation can be used, with 6N3D being preferred in teams that utilize Vaporize or Melt reactions.
Team Composition:

Start with a Skill to trigger elemental reactions and apply team buffs
Follow up with CA to deal damage and apply bonus effects
End with a 6N3D or 3N5D rotation to maximize damage output

Teamplay: In Vaporize or Melt teams, 6N3D is the preferred rotation to trigger consistent elemental reactions and deal increased damage.

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.

Arlecchino Skills

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.

All Is Ash

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.

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.

Balemoon Rising

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.

Passive Talent

Agony Alone May Be Repaid

Ascension Phase 1

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 Defend

Ascension Phase 4

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%.

Constellation Lv. 2

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 Ascension Talent "Agony Alone May Be Repaid."

"You Shall Become a New Member of Our Family..."

Constellation Lv. 3

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

"You Shall Love and Protect Each Other Henceforth..."

Constellation Lv. 4

When Arlecchino successfully absorbs a Blood-Debt Directive, Balemoon Rising's CD will decrease by 2s and 15 Elemental Energy will be restored to her. This effect can occur once every 10s.

"For Alone, We Are as Good as Dead..."

Constellation Lv. 5

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