As a dedicated Genshin Impact player, I've been eagerly anticipating the arrival of Arlecchino, the enigmatic Fatui Harbinger known as The Knave, ever since her captivating debut in the Fontaine storyline. The official confirmation of her release in Version 4.6 sent waves of excitement through the community, and now, with the latest leaks, I can finally start preparing to welcome her to my roster. The most thrilling revelation is that, contrary to earlier fears, most of the materials required for her Ascension and Talents are already available in the game as of early 2026, allowing dedicated players like myself to pre-farm extensively.

According to credible leaks from sources like Foul, shared on platforms like Reddit and Instagram, the core material list for Arlecchino has been outlined. This information, while still subject to the usual caveats of pre-release data, provides a clear roadmap. The ability to gather resources ahead of time is a significant relief, transforming the wait for Version 4.6 into a productive farming period. It dispels the previous community concern about being unable to prepare for her, a common pain point with characters tied to brand-new regions.

Let's break down what we can start collecting right now. Arlecchino, wielding a Pyro Vision, will require the corresponding elemental stones for her Ascension. This means farming Agnidus Agate in all its forms: Slivers, Fragments, Chunks, and Gemstones. As an enemy of the Fatui, it's poetically fitting that her Ascension also demands their insignias. We'll need to stockpile a considerable number of Recruit's, Sergeant's, and Lieutenant's Insignias by taking down Fatui skirmishers and agents across Teyvat. For her Local Specialty, leaks point to the beautiful Rainbow Roses of Fontaine. I've already started making regular routes through the Court of Fontaine and the surrounding countryside to pick these vibrant blooms.

The talent system is equally important. To elevate Arlecchino's combat prowess, we'll need books from the Order series: Teachings, Guides, and Philosophies. These are obtained from the Fontaine talent domain on specific days of the week, so planning my resin usage around that schedule is crucial. Of course, the precious Crowns of Insight from seasonal events will be reserved for her ultimate talent levels. The standard leveling resources—Wanderer's Advice, Hero's Wit, and a mountain of Mora—are also on the shopping list. The Mora cost alone, nearing 7.1 million, is a stark reminder of the investment a 5-star character demands.

However, not everything is farmable today. The leak wisely leaves two key slots as mysteries, reminding us that Version 4.6 will bring new challenges. Firstly, Arlecchino will require a new material from a new World Boss located in the upcoming area for her final Ascension phases. Secondly, leveling her talents beyond level 6 will likely need materials from a new Weekly Boss encounter, possibly tied to her own story quest. These are the elements we must wait for, the final pieces of the puzzle that will arrive with the update itself.

Here is a consolidated checklist of the farmable materials based on the leaks:

  • Local Specialty: 168x Rainbow Rose 🌹

  • Ascension Gemstones (Pyro):

    • 1x Agnidus Agate Sliver

    • 9x Agnidus Agate Fragment

    • 9x Agnidus Agate Chunk

    • 6x Agnidus Agate Gemstone

  • Enemy Drops (Fatui Insignias):

    • 36x Recruit's Insignia

    • 96x Sergeant's Insignia

    • 129x Lieutenant's Insignia

  • Talent Books (Order):

    • 9x Teachings of Order

    • 63x Guide to Order

    • 114x Philosophies of Order

  • General Leveling Resources:

    • 2x Wanderer's Advice

    • 418x Hero's Wit

    • 7,049,900 Mora 💰

    • 3x Crown of Insight (from past events)

While the prospect of a new boss and region is exciting, knowing that the foundational grind can be done now is incredibly empowering. It means that when Version 4.6 drops around its projected late April 2026 window, I can focus my resin on conquering those new challenges and enjoying her story, rather than scrambling for basic flowers and insignias. The farming journey for a character is part of the bond you build with them, and starting early makes her arrival feel all the more earned.

Naturally, I treat all leaks with a grain of salt. HoYoverse could adjust values or even swap a material before the official release. But the core list—Rainbow Roses, Fatui Insignias, Pyro gems, and Order books—feels thematically coherent and reliable. This pre-farming strategy isn't just about efficiency; it's about channeling my anticipation into productive action within the world of Teyvat. The wait for Arlecchino is no longer passive. Every Rainbow Rose I pick, every Fatui patrol I dismantle, is a step closer to unleashing The Knave's full power in my party. The stage is set, and my preparations have begun in earnest.
