However, her HP can be reduced quickly, so make sure to revive her between battles. After you reduce Arlecchino’s health bar to zero, it will revive itself and transform into its ultimate form. In this form, this boss will carry dual sabers with Blood Magic infused on them.
That being said, you will receive extra damage if you get hit by the Arlecchino. The strategy in the second phase of the fight remains the same: don’t get too close and dodge when the enemy seems to attack.
