They are loyal to Arlecchino, one of the Eleven Harbingers of the Fatui, and are part of her special force of operatives. They can be found in northern Fontaine, where they are gathering information about the region.
Fatui Operatives: Types and how to defeat them in Genshin Impact
Fatui Operatives are dangerous foes that can use their Hunt Down skill to apply Life Bond and Corrosion to characters they hit, sacrificing some of their health in the process. Life Bond is a debuff that increases the damage taken from Hunt Down attacks, while Corrosion is a debuff that reduces the character’s maximum HP over time. Fatui Operatives can also use elemental skills based on their type: Wind or Frost. In this guide, we will show you how to defeat these new enemies and what strategies to use against them.
