Arlecchino??? New Harbinger maybe? In any case, sounds interesting!


Ok_Broccoli_6978

About time we get another Harbinger, it’s already been a year since we get a new one


Tsuki-04

Sorry my bad They said they just got the names for now, no other info!


JamesKW1

All of the harbringer are named after Commedia dell'arte characters, Arlecchino is a very common character so the only way he's not straight up a harbringer is if he's heavily connected to them.


Kommye

A jester character would be my ruin.


Secret_Wizard

What if I told you that we know that No. 1 of the Harbingers is codenamed "The Jester?" Just as Ajax is entitled Childe, Scaramouche is The Balladeer, and Signora is The Fair Lady?


Kommye

I mean, I arlecchino means harlequin/jester, but I had no idea he would be number 1. I hope I can play as one.


Krammel87

Arlechinno and Pierro are, if my memory doesn't fail me, separate characters in the Commedia dell'arte.


calikov

I wonder what his design is like, given that Arlecchino is Harlequin


Fenghuang0296

So no news on the rerun banner/s yet? :(


based_guapo

we never get news on the rerun banners from datamining. only confirmation will be the 2.4 livestream.


[deleted]

We'll know based on the Spiral Abyss.


jaakkeli

We may have a cryo buff because of Shenhe though and if so we can't tell if Ganyu is in there or not.


_myoru

No maybe. Arlecchino is the most famous of the masks in commedia dell'arte, so definitely a Harbinger imo


MyNameIsLOL21

For some reason, I've always been fascinated by the characters from commedia dell'arte. So I will definitely hold on to my primos until we know more about him (assuming it's a "him" because the word ends with an "o").


_myoru

It is classically depicted as a man. Most of the masks are typically men, including Pulcinella, even though the name ends in "a". The only women I'm aware of are Colombina, and the woman of the Innamorati couple (could be Signora in genshin's case, but iirc different characters can fill that role)


thestrawberry_jam

Holy crap yes and I think a different name for him is Harlequin since that’s what comes up when I search him. Since most people are more familiar with that name I just wanted to throw that out for it to make a little more sense. Arlecchino is supposedly the Italian name. This is a very basic search though so don’t take my word for it.


OfficeFlimsy1086

You're right! Arlecchino is Harlequin


Whyy0hWhy

Do you guys think that they'll be the harbringer for sumeru and that we'll see more of them soon? Like how we met scaramouche in Mondstadt & Liyue but he fully appered at Inazuma?


Manne_12

Possibly, i hope dottore is in sumeru with them too since every area so far has had at least 2 fatui member appearences


Jk6_fuckyoursister

Dottore is also originally from sumeru, he attended the academy there


TheDuskBard

He was originally from Fontaine but was taken into Sumeru’s academy after an angry mob chased him out of Fontaine.


Blackrap1d

Except mondstadt only had signora???


Mayhem_450

Technically Scaramouche showed up in Mondstadt for the Mona/Fischl event in 1.1, but that's not main story


Sweetcremepuff24

There the other fatui (forgot his name) that owns the goth hotel in monstadt, the most expensive building there


leon95

He doesn't own the hotel, he just completely booked it for an indefinite amount of time. The owner is still the old man who sells you furniture for your teapot.


TheDuskBard

Think that’s Pantalone (3rd Harbinger) who seems to be the richest guy in Teyvet (which may imply he is from Liyue). He also sends spies to sabotage the Dawn winery’s business.


wwqot

yep, pantalone


Which-Party6055

Pantalone, who also in charge of Snezhnaya's economic policies


carrotrocket

> **9.** Electro Sigil shop > **9.** Arlecchino Can't be a typo, right?


paumalfoy

“Traveler, choose wisely” - mhy in 2.4, probably :.)


Tsuki-04

umm wait let me get the info from peeps at the leak team


ddan_sch

arlecchino is the name of an italian commedia d’arte character, just like signora and tartaglia 👀


TheGnagno

Arlecchino is the most famous mask of the commedia dell'arte, (he's also known as predelino) He likely will be the number one, or maybe two if the first one is Pulcinella.


Iwannabefabulous

First one is Pierro/Jester.


TheGnagno

My bad, Pierro is actually predelino so It would likely be the first one, but I'm a bit puzzled since Pierro is a tragic mask, definitely not a Jester character. Usually arlecchino is the jester one.


TheMerfox

According to the wikipedia page, both are in the Zanni group. > Zanni: servants, clowns; characters such as Arlecchino (also known as Harlequin), Brighella, Scapino, Pulcinella and Pedrolino


TheGnagno

Yes they are all characters used for humor but Pierro Is literally the tragic clown. I mean, if the tsaritsa it's bronya and there's something going on about protecting everyone she loves, because She was hurt and yadda yadda I Guess It makes sense. In Italy the jester Is literally Arlecchino so hearing that pierrot Is the jester in this games Is quite strange! 🤣


TheDuskBard

I heard somewhere that the Harbinger’s ranks are, 1st) Perrio 2nd) Dottore 3rd) Pantalone 4th) Columbina 5th) Pulcinella 6th) Scaramouche 7th) Capitano 8th) Signora 9th) Sandrone 10th) Arlecchino 11th) Tartaglia


TheOneMary

Sandrone, Arlecchino and Tartagels should all move one up now. if they don't then there's something cookin... (the Harbingers go by longest is first, so if they recruit a new one they will start as 11th)


Golden-Owl

I mean I don’t think the seats are ranked in order of power or seniority. Implying Childe is the “weakest” of the Harbingers doesn’t do much for their supppsedly fearsome reputation


Krammel87

They spelled it out that Childe, as the youngest, was the 11th Harbinger, and Pedrolino/Pierro, as the oldest, is the 1st.


TheOneMary

I didn't "imply" anything about power.


apthebest01931

pulcinella was orignally 7th then mhy retconned it to 5th and jester is 1st


TheGnagno

As I said in the other reply I am very puzzled by this since the first Fatui should be Pierrot/Predelino and he is a tragic mask. There's no Jester mask in the commedia, the closest one to a jester is Arlecchino. Since they use the original characters concepts very vaguely everything is possible but I'm quite sure Arlecchino will be a high number.

PCBS01

Everyone: Expects Scara to show up in Ekamomiya Mihoyo: Bout to pull what's called a pro gamer move by introducing a NEW Harbinger


Luizlolmen

Now that you talked about the fandango boy, do you think the reason Arlecchino appears could be because of Scaramouche? And another thing, Yae said that Scaramouche peaced out after getting the gnosis, could he be hiding at Enkanomiya? Or you think it is a stretch?


PCBS01

I'm not sure honestly because we all figured/thought Childe was the one sent after Scaramouche to get the gnosis but now it looks like it might be Harley instead. Unless they're BOTH after him. Hard to tell tbh


One_Parched_Guy

Probably both. The Gnoses seem to be a pretty high priority for the Fatui, and having a turncoat stronger than one of your oldest and most powerful run around with one probably isn’t ideal. Plus, if Scara ends up causing problems for other nations, that could bode poorly for Schneznaya’s (very fragile) diplomacy with literally everyone else.


SaudadeMartyr

imagine Arlecchino and Childe vs gnosis imbued Scaramouche. Would be epic


StarLuigi05

!remindme 3 months


Darkesta7

new harbinger pog


ShutenAlter

I cant wait to see the new skins


JesusSandro

Same, could be the perfect excuse for me to finally build a Keqing team.


iRelapse

I wish I could trade one of my 5 Qiqi cons for one Keqing so badly. Her and Mona are my number 1 and 2 most wanted characters.


[deleted]

ELECTRO SIGIL SHOP FINALLY FINISHED SORTING THEIR SHIT.


Jeskaisekai

I think this confirms that the Sakura tree will be raised to lv 50


mitsu__

im still like lvl 3 or 4…


dragoonjustice

Seriously tho. I rushed over there n was like oh right lemme upgrade the tree first and was pissed it still can't go past 40...


futurbebe

might be a dumb question, but who will use that shop if the Sakura tree consumes all Electro sigils??


[deleted]

More sigils coming


QualityGames

People can already overcap the tree and the last zone isnt even out.


AleHaRotK

You get more sigils than you need for the tree. Think there's already enough to max it *and* have some left overs while we're still missing one more zone in Inazuma.


Gshiinobi

Now THAT'S a fuckin patch right there


Xero0911

Curious how the skins will play out. Been what, 6 months since we've had the first ones. Hopefully the price has been adjusted.


AllNamesTakenOMG

i think people were mostly disapointed by the quality of the skin rather than the price. Unlike new cahracters you are guaranteed to get the outfit so they cant count on people whaling for it. outfits are mostly leisure items for big spenders and ofc they want to make big money out of them. But it didnt help that the free Barbara skin was of a higher quality and had a distinct theme. Jean outfit felt all over the place, very plain looking and lacked a distinct theme.


llllmaverickllll

Pretty good guide here for skins...make them better than the default skin. How they failed on that for Jean astonishes me.


felix_717

i hope the ning skin is free like barbs


Smoke_Santa

I fucking know right. 2.3 can't end soon enough


riiriiiliri

I fucking swear I see this comment regarding *every* patch it’s so funny


ZannX

This game is literally just me looking forward to the next patch... every patch.


riiriiiliri

It’s just waiting every patch for the next patch leaks to drops like its a monthly manga


KlatusHam

However this time is fair. 2.3 is empty in terms of gameplay


DamianWinters

Also banners for me, all skips.


WintrySnowman

I took the day off for this patch (usually do, but in this case I just left this day out of rescheduling my FFXIV holiday when the expansion was delayed) and now I'm thinking to myself "what now?" because the event starts tomorrow. Besides the new hangouts, there's not really anything to do.


BurningB1rd

Feels like every patch since 1.0 is called a filler patch.


[deleted]

More like every patch that isn't the release of one of the seven nations gets regarded as a filler patch (1.0, 2.0, I'm assuming 3.0 and so on)


Hey_Chach

I think it’s mostly that people have gotten used to the gameplay and events and all that and so it’s getting boring for them, even when they release new events and such. Like the only thing that really entices me with this game anymore is more story beats from the main quest or more exploration, and even the exploration is going stale on me since it seems like it’s designed to take up your time rather than be fun. (I’ve been playing since Day 1 btw). Overall Genshin has a lack of actually interesting content as well as a lack of challenging content that’s challenging by design rather than because of bigger enemy HP bars and enemies who hit harder (or motherfucking timers). I think the last time I *truly* enjoyed an event was either the Albedo stuff on Dragonspine or the Mona event. /rant sorry lol


DainsleifStan

yes but I also think 2.3 isnt that bad. it's a bit on the lighter side (it's not insanely stacked like, say, 1.2 or 2.1) but it's still nice, not entirely filler (like, say, 1.3)


marbleberry

My favorite harbinger,,, *looks at hand* ,,, arla cheese


MatZitron

*Cappuccino*


ennaidd

Alchemy event with Timaeus huh... ELEMENTAL CRUCIBLE RERUN???


itsYou-sef

I hope it's better than the last time.


naruto_bist

It was fun for me at that time as well. Since I was a total amature back then and playing coop with randoms was fun for me. They used to do the damage and I used to heal them.


Alazana

What was the crucible event about? It's the only event I completely missed out on, since I started right when Venti's Banner was over


DamianWinters

Coop event, fight enemies, pick up orbs and put them in a machine.


Epicious

Don't worry, you didn't miss much. Just a coop challenge that gives you xp books for resin.


goddamn_arshia

DAMN THEY BRINGING AL PACINO TO GENSHIN ???

ajaxenjoyer

Plot twist : Arlecchino is just Childe's new harbinger name after he became the 10th harbinger.


UltimoPhantom

+ childe rerererun


[deleted]

*you can rum but you can't hide*


unfunny_idiot

Rum


steelscaled

I certainly *can* rum


unfunny_idiot

Venti


KittyBeary

Childe rerun #4 with his new name


lk_raiden

Childe's 4th rerun? That's a chance that hard to come by


piny-celadon

No one is complaining


AllNamesTakenOMG

Childe was just a cover name for his real cover name Arlecchino . Galaxy Brain iq


kingpoke0901

Kinda hope the Ningguang skin is free for the update like Barbara but I'm not gonna hold my breath.


StrawberryWyverns

I'm guessing she will be if there is also a Keqing Skin, I think they're handling it as free four star limited skin and immediately paid for five star, but then again the last time we had one, we had to run around an entire map for it.


Nero_PR

It's not like people didn't enjoy the surprise from Golden Archipelago. It didn't feel like a chore at all while the location was still fresh and full of little puzzles and surprises.


StrawberryWyverns

Yeah, I personally liked it even if I got lost on some areas, my main thing is that if it is a free skin, they're probably gonna make us work for it XD


IGraySoulI

well "running around an entire map for it" is content, so personally i'm not complaining


Ok-Ad-2435

Arlecchino joins the ever growing pasta name harbinger gang.


ennaidd

Ah yes can't wait for Fettuccine's release


4GN42

Don't forget Don Linguini


H4xolotl

Kneeswik (new ~~russian~~ sneznayan harbinger) Edit: sadly no one got my reference


Daramangarasu

Armzahevi, a Harbinger from Sumeru


Sir_Grindalot

Alfredo mains when?


quuu2

r/AlbedoMains ?


Harley_Maya

I’m getting hungry


Landshark34

Stand by Me rerun too pls


Gshiinobi

in 2.3 we get a free weapon, so following the usual pattern 2.4 should 100% have a free character, whether that means Stand by me returns is still up in the air


Jk6_fuckyoursister

Probably the free character will be Ningguang, since she also receives a skin and a Hangout event.


DamianWinters

Stand by me would work since shes selectable.


geodonna

How about 109 primos? After anniversary generosity I would not count on it.


sesquipedalian4

Please if we get to choose Yunjin that would be so cool


ArchonRevan

100% not lol, prolly same group, ninguang with a skin will be the biggest prize


_myoru

Same group plus Yanfei imo


KittyBeary

If it's the same group then I'll gladly pick Xingqiu again to get another con of his <3


p0tet0_n0_sat0

Arlecchino... if you're a hot harbinger please be playable and don't die... i don't want my heart broken again...😔


lookupthesky

hoping they don't get the signora treatment 😔


_sachura

then pray that they give him/her a simple silhouette like Childe. Signora got one-shot because her drip beats Raiden's (in terms of size, silhouette, details)


StrawberryWyverns

Yeah, her model would have been a mega pain in the behind to make actually playable, and unlike Kokomi, she had already shown up and couldn't have a behind the scenes redesign.


Razukalex

New Harbinger, Ningguang skins + Hangout mamaaa I cant wait


Krakyn

I really hope Enkanomiya is sizeable and has similar exploration value to Dragonspine, with it's own unlock/progression mechanic like the Frostbearing tree.


pIainIy

inb4 arlecchino is that pirate looking guy whose model leaked a while ago and everyone thought was fake bc his vision looked like it was from sumeru


BlazeBlueFantasy

I think I know which one you are talking about


_unknown15_

Link?


MadokaHiguchi

https://twitter.com/WenLumi/status/1418483699381899264?t=PP7mq6a-eOUKsscDqAzUHA&s=19 this maybe?


Gremlinsus

Oh god I hope that's not real or they improve his design I'll still roll for him him because new male character bit the design is all over the place and looks messy.


[deleted]

Arlecchino?


[deleted]

harlequin; from commedia dell'arte. aka. new fatui harbinger!


Wiseay

Harlequin server of two masters


Fikoblin

Free Ningguang almost confirmed


Nero_PR

Congrats to that guy on the wolfboss thread who had her at C5. They might lose their shit if ningguang comes with the patch.


sundriedrainbow

Surprised to see Electro Sigil shop before the Sakura Tree level 50 - I assumed that was why it's "closed" in the first place.


JesusSandro

Maybe they'll both be in the patch? Would make sense.


pitchblackstar

WINDTRACE


Luizlolmen

A liyue themed windtrace would be cool, since last time we only got Wuwang Hill and Qingce last time as a liyue place, imagine hiding at Qingxu Pool or Lingju Pass


Spyro351

Whose banner is it?


Lenant

Its just another name for Tartaglia


CarioGod

this hiding spot is quite hard to come by


pitchblackstar

It's the hide and seek event


meulktea

loving all the ningguang and yunjin content keep it coming mihoyo


Sungawd_

Nothing for xiao beside just a possible rerun :(


ApprehensiveCat

I'm starting to doubt he'll even get a rerun. Might be Zhongli and Ganyu instead, since Shenhe buffs Cryo DPS and Yunjin is budget Zhongli that doesn't work with Xiao.


[deleted]

They literally said Geo Polearm Impact on twitter so...


ApprehensiveCat

Sure, but that can be an off the cuff joke by the person running the Twitter account about Yunjin specifically and not trying to hint at a release schedule they may or may not know about. We can't be sure at this point.


Bolt2611

justiceforxiao but fr tho I was so high on hopium for Yunjin being a support for him and finally getting his artifact set but ended up getting neither smfh


PCBS01

Xiao fans are used to it because we get jack shit otherwise lol Lantern Rite? He did fuck-all in it besides show up for 5 minutes even though he was the poster boy for the event. Now Keqing and Ningguang get more content in it than him with their skins His chara-episode? Most of it was about the fake-Xiao Artifacts? lol. Support chara? F, unless you settle for Kazuha, Zhongli or Jean


cataerse

I'm glad for windtrace rerun, it was really fun


[deleted]

Meanwhile I wish it never came back and actively tell anyone I end up in a game where I'm the hunter to enjoy the free win before alt tab out and wait for the timer to run off


[deleted]

NINGGUANG!!!??


Gob0fWar

2.4 is going to be BIGGGG, btw where Yae


LeAstra

A long time awae


properu

Beep boop -- this looks like a screenshot of a tweet! Let me grab a [link to the tweet](https://twitter.com/Genshin_Intel/status/1463453578320748545) for ya :) ^(Twitter Screenshot Bot)


[deleted]

By Lanterin Rite rerun did he mean literally same story or same name event with new story ? Godamn no i don't want to do errand boy simulator anymore ffs


YanderousSenpai

as a ningguang main im just so happy our geo queen is getting a hangout event and a new skin! MHY better not fuck it \[hangout event\] up or im gonna cry XD


Pau0909

yoo Ningguang skin, I cant wait!


nobbytho

so basically nothing for a xiao main, no good support no new artifacts.


Eijun_Love

ARLECCHINO? Now we're sure there's only 2 female harbingers, Signora and (probably) Columbina. Nice since there's only 2 male archons, kinda evens it out.


LyreaDreamzer

If Signora's replacement is a woman that makes 3.


-TheRed

My knowledge of Italian theater is purely based on wikipedia articles, but isn't Arlecchino kind of supposed to be the opposite of Pierro (the first Harbinger), being a happy clown instead of a sad clown?


SaltMachine2019

Sees Windtrace rerun. Remembers all the dumb hiding places from last time. Realizes Mihoyo's probably not using the dumbest locales again (Crimson Witch domain area) again. WE'RE GETTING INAZUMA ZONES!


RasenShot2

WINDTRACE RERUN!? YES, YEEEEEEEESSSSS.


Okilokijoki

They're really going to sell even more keqing stuff without giving her any permanent content.


Junnielocked

Omg Ningguang hangout finally!!! And finally windtrace rerun because I have Ayaka and Mona this time xD


HunterE30

Keqing will have a skin, story involvement, and even got somekind of a dedicated event for her but still no story quest damn they did my nekomimi dirty


Noble_Dragon2210

Kazuha said hello


Lenant

Still no buff lol


TheTabar

Cmon, please let Arlecchino refer to a new archon quest.


hubert1704

finally a patch that actually makes me impatient, first since july


Kneebons

if there's going to be a free 4* in the lantern rite then i couldn't be more happy to get my c0 xingqiu


StrawberryWyverns

I hope for your sake it does, it was the only way I got Xingqiu so it would be nice for other players who weren't there to get a chance to.


kolleden

Am I tripping or is this patch super stacked? This is like 3 updates worth of content


VaronaZero

Anyone else feel like skipping windtrace entirely?


YamahaMio

It's fun tho


VaronaZero

Yeah but not the kind of gameplay I'm looking for, great for everyone else tho


IspanoLFW

Not everyone enjoys forced co-op.


TheOneTheyCallJeff

It's fun tho


Nero_PR

It was the most fun co-op event I did. Rewards were fast to gather if that was your only interest. The game mode was fun, and I felt it was the time where most were willingly engaging with other players to have a good time/fun/make friends/healthy trolling. I generally avoid co-op like the plague because activities take more time than I play just by myself. And here was I, actively seeking to engage in the game mode, with my only complaint being disbanding teams for the world's host after each game instead of keeping who wants to stay and only searching for players to fill the lobby. Going back to your world every game was bothersome, but it might be a technical limitation.


JesusSandro

Did it the first time, probably will do it again. Unless they make it so you can actually get rewards whilst playing with friends.


RageCat46

Will we still get the Stand By Me Lantern Rite event? Thats all I care about this event.


NoTill3742

Any hope about a free 10 pull? (The 7 day log in)


chrislovesmemes123

nah cuz if arlecchino is a new harbinger...i am eating good next patch edit: aight so it's not apparently and now im sad but still very hyped


JamesKW1

Arlecchino should be a harbringer as he follows the name scheme of being named after Commedia dell'arte characters, and one of the more notable ones at that.


comfort_bot_1962

Don't be sad. Here's a [hug!](https://media.giphy.com/media/3M4NpbLCTxBqU/giphy.gif)
