With the Genshin Impact 4.6 update, players are looking to pull for the new Pyro character, Arlecchino, and her unique weapon, the Crimson Moon's Semblance. This is a 5-star weapon which is a polearm that can be obtained by users in-game through its gacha system.

As a keen-edged weapon, the Crimson Moon's Semblance weapon grants a Bond of Life when a charged attack hits an opponent. This makes this an ideal weapon for high-base and crit-rate attacks.

Best characters for Crimson Moon's Semblance

Make sure to use the Crimson Moon's Semblance wisely with the right characters. Here are some of our recommended characters to use with the Crimson Moon's Semblance in Genshin Impact:

  • Arlecchino - As the Crimson Moon's Semblance is a signature weapon for Arlecchino, ideally she's the best character to use the weapon. In her hands, the weapon can transform into a scythe during charged attacks and be used to its maximum potential. But in the hands of other characters, they won't get this benefit.
  • Rosaria - With Rosaria as a Cryo character, a first impression comes that she may not be compatible with the Crimson Moon's Semblance. However, as a reliable DPS and Support character, she can share the crit rate with the rest of the team through her Elemental Burst ability.

That was everything you need to know about Arlecchino's signature weapon, Crimson Moon's Semblance!
