Finding:
When Arlecchino absorbs her Blood-Debt Directives (E marks) on multiple enemies, she gains BoL in a way that can trigger multiple 4pc Fragment of Harmonic Whimsy's stacks.

Evidence: YouTube
Stats:

  • Total ATK: 1554
  • AdditiveBaseDMGBonus from BoL: 1554*238%*145% = 5362.854 (She gains 145% BoL at maximum per E)
  • CRIT Multiplier: 1 + 142% = 2.42 (CRIT hit)
  • Total DMG% (excluding 4pc Whimsy): 40% (A4) + 46.6% (Goblet) + 48% (Weapon) + 75% (Abyss Leyline Disorder) = 209.6%
  • Total DMG% (with 3 Whimsy stacks): 169.6% + 54% = 263.6%
  • Total DMG% (with 2 Whimsy stacks): 169.6% + 36% = 245.6%
  • RES Multiplier: 0.9
  • DEF Multiplier (Enemy=95, Arle=90): ~0.4935

Scenario 1: Arlecchino absorbs E marks when they are not upgraded to Blood-Debt Due yet, giving 65% BoL per enemy. Because the maximum BoL she can gain per E is 145%, she gains 65%+65% BoL from first two enemies, and 15% BoL from the third one. The game seemingly registers it as 3 BoL gaining events. The damage is: (1554 * 93.9% + 5362.854) * (2.42) * (1 + 2.636) * 0.9 * 0.4935 = ~26661 which is similar to the number 26668 in game.
Scenario 2: Arlecchino absorbs E marks when they are already upgraded to Blood-Debt Due. Because each Due gives her 130% BoL, she only gains 130% and 15% BoL from the first and two enemies, respectively. The game also seemingly registers it as 2 BoL gaining events. The damage is: (1554 * 93.9% + 5362.854) * (2.42) * (1 + 2.456) * 0.9 * 0.4935 = ~25341 which is similar to the number 25348 in game.

Significance:
Arlecchino can gain Whimsy's 4pc effect more quickly in multi-targets.
