Genshin Impact 4.6 Leaks: Arlecchino Gameplay Leaks and Community Reactions

Version 4.5 of Genshin Impact may have just been released alongside Chiori, but players are already looking to the next update. Coming soon in-game version 4.6, Arlecchino will have a different kind of gameplay along with some really cool animations and a weapon that stands out. The Crimson Moon's Reckoning. And leaks have been flooding in of her details. Here's a breakdown of the leaked details and the community's reactions.

Leaked Arlecchino Kit and Animations

Elemental Skill: All is Ash

Arlecchino's elemental skill, All is Ash, summons a red-colored structure called Balemoon Bloodfire. This skill allows her to dash forward and summon multiple Balemoon Bloodfire wings, dealing Pyro damage to enemies in an area of effect (AOE) and applying a debuff called Blood-Debt Directive. The debuff lasts for 30 seconds and deals Pyro damage to opponents every three seconds, with a maximum of three instances. Using a Charged Attack allows Arlecchino to absorb and clear nearby Blood-Debt Directives, granting her a Bond of Life worth 20% of her Max HP.

Elemental Burst: Balemoon Rising

Arlecchino's elemental burst, Balemoon Rising, summons an increased number of Balemoon Bloodfire wings and grants her the Bond of Life buff worth 15% of her maximum health. Like her elemental skill, the burst deals Pyro damage to enemies in an AOE.

Unique Animations and Weapon Effects

Arlecchino's idle animations showcase her unique style, with one animation showing her seated in a chair resembling a blood altar and another where she seemingly glitches in some sort of a phasing animation in a portal similar to the Narwhal boss, ending with a "hush" pose.

One of the most talked-about aspects of Arlecchino's gameplay is her special Scythe weapon and party entrance animation. When using her signature Polearm, Crimson Moon's Semblance, Arlecchino's normal and charged attacks are accompanied by a unique Scythe animation. However, this effect is exclusive to her weapon and does not apply to other characters.

Community Reactions

The Genshin Impact community has reacted with excitement and awe to Arlecchino's gameplay leaks. Many players praised her glitching animation, calling it one of the game's best features. The burst animation, in particular, has received widespread praise, with players describing it as "insane" and "peak" Genshin Impact animation.
