To get ahead in Arknights: Endfield, you should understand that every character on your team fights at the same time. You can call out their skills even when you are not moving them yourself.

You and everyone in your group share an energy bar called SP, which you use to fight. You have to decide whether to heal or attack with it. The Final Strike, which is the last hit in your regular attack chain, is the most important move.

It refills your SP and staggers enemies. It also triggers Combo Strikes, which are powerful moves that do not cost any energy to use in Arknights: Endfield.

Learning Skills and Synergies

You will find that just pressing buttons is not enough for big bosses. You need to use your team together. Some characters, like Chen, put Vulnerable stacks on enemies. Others like Pog can hit those enemies to deal extra damage and lower their physical defense. This also works for elemental Arts like fire, ice, and electricity.

If you hit an enemy with the same element many times, it causes a damage explosion. If you mix elements, you get a reaction. For example, using fire on an enemy that is already shocked or frozen causes Combustion, which deals damage over time in Arknights: Endfield.

Staggering and Team Roles

Every boss has a Stagger Bar. When you fill this bar, the boss gets stunned and takes a lot more damage. You want to save your best moves for this moment. To do this well, you need a balanced team.

You need a Vanguard like Akekuri to act as a battery and give the team more SP. You need Amplifiers like Antal to make your team stronger.

Enablers like Wolfgard help by putting stacks on enemies. Finally, your Carry, such as Avywenna, is the one who does the most damage and should get your best gear first in Arknights: Endfield.

Building the AIC Base

The AIC system lets you build a base that farms items while you are away. You unlock this early in the story. You can place mining rigs to get Originium and Amethyst. You must connect these rigs to Pylons to give them power from your main base.

You can also make a machine that never stops working. By linking a Seeding Unit to a Planting Unit, you can turn one plant into infinite plants.

If you send these to a Shredding Unit and then a Filling Machine, you can make Canned Citrome. You can drink these to heal or sell them for a lot of money to buy more upgrades.

Exploring for Rewards

Walking around the world is very helpful for your progress. Look for icons on the map that show Rare Growth Sites. These have plants and minerals you need to level up your characters. They grow back every day, so check them often in Arknights: Endfield.

You should also grab the floating energy balls called Aurylene. If you turn these in at teleport points, you get more stamina for running and dodging.

If you find a locked chest behind an electric fence, use your base power to turn the fence off. These chests give you Oroberyl, which is the money you use to pull for new characters in the Gacha.
