4pc boosts Normal Attack DMG by 35%, directly amplifying N3D/N5D combos; 2pc ATK +18% is a solid fallback.

4pc boosts Normal/Charged Attack DMG; 2pc Dendro DMG is useless.

2pc ATK +18% offers flexible filler, easily paired with other 2pc bonuses like CRIT Rate.

4pc boosts Normal Attack DMG based on ATK after Normal Attacks; strong for N3D/N5D but needs low ping.

DPS
Arlecchino is a Pyro DPS relying on her Bond of Life mechanic. In combat, she cannot be healed except by her Elemental Burst, so a shielder is strongly recommended.

Weapon Choice (assuming paired with Bennett):
Staff of the Scarlet Sands: If not triggering Vaporize or Melt, avoid an EM Sands; ranks below Staff of Homa.
Vortex Vanquisher: Ranking assumes shielded. Without shield, performs like White Tassel [R5].
Deathmatch: At high refinements, similar to Staff of Homa.
Ballad of the Fjords: In Vaporize teams, slightly better than Deathmatch.

Artifact Choice:
Desert Pavilion Chronicle (4): Don't cancel Charged Attack early to ensure it hits for the passive.
Echoes of an Offering (4): Similar to Desert Pavilion Chronicle (4) if ping < 200 consistently.

Talent Priority: Elemental Skill and Elemental Burst need less investment than Normal Attack.
