Genshin Impacthas no shortage of on-field Pyro DPS characters, but Arlecchino stands out as a unique addition to the roster. Her Bond of Life mechanic and inability to receive team healing adds some nuance to Arlecchino’s team-building strategies, but her quirks may more than makeup for all those Wishes.
With a variety of team compositions in mind, here are some of my suggestions for the best Arlecchino teams to try inGenshin Impact!
General teambuilding advice for Arlecchino
Arlecchino has a passive that makes her unable to receive healing from teammates. You can still bring a healer if you want to heal your other teammates, but Arlecchino has to sustain herself.
Since Arlecchino’s only source of healing is her own Burst, and she spends a long time on-field, it can be nice to have a defensive teammate. Healing may not be useful, but Arlecchino appreciatesshielding and damage reduction.Characters like Zhongli, Xingqiu, and Beidou will help keep Arlecchino alive if you cannot use her Burst consistently.
Best Arlecchino mono Pyro teams
Mono Pyro teams are the most straightforward to play. These teams work by buffing Pyro damage as much as possible and letting Arlecchino take full advantage of buff uptime. Here are some mono Pyro teams that work with Arlecchino.
Arlecchino – Bennett – Kazuha – Xiangling
Bennett,Kazuha, andXianglingform a powerful Pyro core. Arlecchino takes advantage of Bennett and Kazuha’s buffs to become a potent on-field Pyro DPS. She won’t receive healing from Bennett, but she can still receive his buffs. As an added bonus, the three Pyro characters can all provide Energy for each other, reducing everyone’s Energy Recharge requirements. Just make sure Xiangling is standing in Bennett’s circle when she uses her Burst.
If you don’t have Kazuha, you can replace him with any Anemo character holding the 4pc Viridescent Venerer set. You’ll miss out on Kazuha’s DMG buffs, but at least you’ll get the RES shred from the 4VV artifact set.
Arlecchino – Zhongli – Bennett – Yun Jin
If you want to escape Xiangling, try a double Geo team instead.Zhongliprovides valuable shielding while Yun Jin buffs Arlecchino’s Normal Attacks. Geo Resonance provides additional buffs while Arlecchino is shielded.
I don’t recommend replacing Zhongli or Bennett, but you can replace Yun Jin withAlbedoorChiori. This results in less personal damage from Arlecchino herself, but you’ll gain some off-field Geo damage instead. The optimal choice depends on how well-built your Arlecchino is compared to your Albedo/Chiori.
Best Arlecchino Vaporize teams
As a Pyro DPS, Arlecchino can triggerreverse Vaporizewith her Pyro-infused Normal Attacks. Pair her with one or two off-field Hydro characters and make sure the enemy always has a Hydro aura. Here are some examples of Arlecchino Vaporize teams.
Be cautious when pairing Arlecchino with Furina. Furina willdrain Arlecchino’s HP, so you will need to consistently use Arlecchino’s Burst to stay alive.
