There are new leaks for Genshin Impact 4.6 that point to what might be an exclusive weapon for Arlecchino. This would be the first weapon of its kind in an action RPG. The game is almost done with Version 4.4 and is going on to Version 4.5, which should come out in the middle of March.
The livestream for Genshin Impact 4.5 has shown all the information about the game, including characters, events, and new information. Even so, Version 4.6 is already being hacked, and some of the leaks are about the highly awaited Arlecchino.
A new piece of information about Version 4.6 was shared by the leaker HXG and received by Uncle K. It says that Arlecchino’s signature polearm will have a special motion that will happen when she charges.
The leak said that when she uses that type of move, the lance will change into a scythe. But this only seems to happen to Arlecchino. The leaks make it clear that other characters in Genshin Impact can use her signature polearm, but it won’t turn into a scythe when they do.

The rumors that Arlecchino’s signature weapon has a special motion that can only be used by her could be a way to make money.
This special animation hasn’t been blocked from any other characters besides the main unit yet, but it could be a way to subtly encourage players to spend money and try their luck to get both the limited-time 5-star character and their signature 5-star weapon in the same update.
When players get Arlecchino in Genshin Impact, they might pull out her signature weapon just for the motion. On the other hand, players who get the character’s unique 5-star weapon for its numbers and potential in battle may end up wanting to get Arlecchino to unlock the special animation, which is said to be impossible to do with any other character in the game.
Locking the full motion of a weapon behind a certain character seems more like a way to make money than a prize for players who get both of them. Thankfully, it shouldn’t change how you play Genshin Impact, but the leaks make it seem like players need both pieces to fully experience one item.
Before Version 4.6 came out, the weapon could be changed so that it always starts the special motion, no matter what character is using it.
The leak might even be wrong. This information should only be confirmed publicly during the Version 4.6 video, which should happen in the middle of April. However, as the Genshin Impact progresses in Version 4.5, more information about the next update should start to leak out.
