In this guide, we will tell you how to find and defeat this powerful warrior, studying in detail all of her attacks and movements, as well as indicating the recommended commands and the best tactics for fighting her.
Where to find the Servant (Harlequin) in Genshin Impact
To gain access to the battle with this boss, you will first need to unlock a special dungeon by completing the Harlequin Legends quest called “Fatal Moon”. After this, you will be able to challenge this harbinger of Fatui at any time, but you will be able to collect the reward for defeating her only once a week. Let's add that in the quest this enemy is somewhat weaker than in weekly battles.
Note: Starting with patch 4.2, to open weekly bosses you no longer need to fulfill the story conditions – just reach 40- go adventure rank. You can enter into battle with them through the adventurer's handbook.
The passage to the dungeon is located in the northern part of the Liffey area, in Fontaine. To have the game mark its location for you, simply select “Crimson Moon” under the “Punishment Dungeons” section of the Adventurer's Handbook. Once you enter it, you will need to choose the difficulty of the battle depending on the strength of your characters.
Before the battle, be sure to make sure that you have 60 units of Primordial Resin (or 30 if we are talking about one of the first three battles with weekly bosses in the current week), otherwise you will not be able to receive the reward later.
Characteristics of the Servant
Even in its base form, this harbinger of Fatui has 70% resistance to Pyro damage, so we do not advise you to take damage dealers of the corresponding element into your team. As for other elements and physical damage, its resistance to them is only 10%, which makes it easier to create an optimal squad.
If we talk about the main attributes, then Arlequino can boast of quite high indicators, for example, her life scale at level 90 is 1 million units, and her attack power is equal to 26.6 thousand points, which is noticeably higher than other bosses. Plus, she can make some very powerful area-of-effect attacks.
Thus, she definitely cannot be called a weak opponent. The full stats for this enemy can be found in the pictures above (2P, 3P, and 4P show the stats when playing in co-op mode).

Tips for Choosing Heroes
< p>Considering the boss’s high resistance to the Pyro element, it’s definitely not worth taking the main damage dealers of the corresponding element, but you can easily add Pyro healers or shield fighters who do not deal direct damage to the enemy. You can even take a fiery sub-DD to assign appropriate statuses and cause elemental reactions.
We strongly recommend taking damage-dealing archers into your squad, as the boss will often rise high into the air, becoming inaccessible to those with melee weapons – only archers can reach it there.
You should also take a good healer and/or shielder, as the boss can deal a lot of damage with his attacks, and it will be difficult to dodge them due to the fact that they hit the area. Plus, the Servant will regularly impose Life Debt on your characters, which can only be removed with the help of healing.
