Sacrificing Serana, as in killing her? I don't see how that would have an impact or an effect.

One could only put so much blood on a single arrow. The Bloodcursed Arrows the Dragonborn uses are only tipped with Vampire Blood, but not completely soaked.

We'll never know. @Lord Hadron

You have a point. But maybe what Harkon is supposed to do is not to taint the arrows only, but also Auriel's Bow by using Serana as the ultimate sacrifice for the prophecy. Just saying.

I think that if both the tainted Bow and an Bloodcursed Elven Arrow/s is used, it will result in all of Tamriel(i think all of Nirn) plunged into permanent eternal darkness as the prophecy says.

But in the real case, I believe Jimeee is right. The Dragonborn can reshape the prophecy as he/she sees fit.
