Invitation to a Beheading

Invitation to a Beheading
Char­ac­ter	Arlecchino
Talent Type	Normal Attack
Category	Combat
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.

Invitation to a Beheading is Arlecchino's Normal Attack.

Gameplay Notes

• Unlike all other Polearm users, Arlecchino's Charged Attack is not preceded by a Normal Attack.
• The third hit of Arlecchino's Normal Attack will pull enemies towards her.
• If Arlecchino wields any other polearm other than Crimson Moon's Semblance, her polearm will have a yellow scythe blade starting from the second hit of her Normal Attack combo.
• While holding her Charged Attack and during her high speed movement, she will sprout a red wing and be able to fly over the surface of water.
• Her Normal Attack AoE is increased during her "Masque of the Red Death" state.
• She remains in "Masque of the Red Death" even if she is swapped off field and swapped back in so long as her Bond of Life is greater than 30% HP.
• During the "Masque of the Red Death" state, the base damage of Normal Attacks is calculated as:$({\text{ATK}}\times {\text{Talent Multiplier}})+({\text{ATK}}\times {\text{Masque of the Red Death Increase}}\times {\frac {\text{Bond of Life}}{\text{Max HP}}})$
