Arknights: Endfield It has a variety of characters, called Operators, who play many combat roles in the game, such as damage dealer, supporter, debuffer, healer, and so on. As the game progresses, we will see more characters and more roles they can play.
However, early in the game, your options are limited, as you don't have headhunting currency stockpiled, and the number of operators you have at your disposal is restricted. That said, there are still plenty of strong characters that are perfect for beginners, which we'll look at below.
and administrator
EndAdministrator is the first 6-star operator you'll get for free, and, as expected of the game's hero, can easily fit into most early-game teams. EndAdministrator has a simple but effective kit that focuses primarily on physical damage and physical positioning.
This allows the administrator to act as a primary physical damage dealer, or a secondary support damage dealer. Their easy-to-activate combo skills allow them to shine on teams with other physical operators like Chen, Pogranichnik, Lifeng, and Alesh.
Arknights: Endfield – Endministrator build and team guide
We cover the best builds, gear sets, weapons, and team setups for Endministrator in Arknights: Endfield.
Ardelia
Ardelia is another 6-star operator that you get for free from the Awakening sign-in program early in the game. Ardelia is a powerful support operator who can maintain your team's health while debuffing the enemy.
Ardelia uses the nature element and traps corrosion with her skills, but she can consume corrosion instead of physical sensitivity and art sensitivity, making her extremely versatile. This means you can really slot him into any early game team that needs healing.
Through the Awakening sign-in event, you'll also receive the Dreams of the Starry Beach weapon, which perfectly aligns with Ardelia's healing and debuffing abilities.
Pearl
Perlica is a 5-star Arts unit-wielding electric operator who can easily fit into any Arts-based early game team. Her combo skills have electrifying effects and when a controlled operator lands a final strike, making it incredibly easy to get value out of her kit.
Electrify deals additional art damage to the enemy from all sources. On Electric-centric teams, Perlica is even stronger, applying Electric Inflection with her skill, which can then be used to trigger more electrification, or consumed by characters like Arclight to gain more SP.
Overall, Perlica is an extremely versatile buffer and support damage dealer, and you get it for free at the beginning of the story.
Chen Qianyu
Like Perlica, Chen is a 5-star operator that you find near the beginning of the story. While Chen may not be as versatile as Perlica, she provides substantial physical damage, and can carry physical damage teams through the story and beyond.
Chain specializes in inflicting Vulnerable and Lift when working with damage dealers like Endministrator or Pogranichnik, both of which can consume vulnerable stacks that apply for more effects and even more damage.
Xaihi
Xaihi is a 5-star support operator who can not only apply powerful cryo amp buffs to his team, but can also heal a controlled operator with his skills. If that operator is at full health, they will also be given an arts amp buff.
Xaihi excels on Cryo and Nature Arts based teams, especially when paired with the 6-star damage dealer Last Rite, which can take full advantage of Xaihi's buffs and debuffs.
Arclight
Arclight is a 5-star Vanguard operator. The Vanguard class specializes in generating SP for the team, allowing them to use their skills more often, and Arclight is currently one of the best Vanguards, especially on Electric-centric teams, working alongside Perlica, Avywenna, and Antal.
Since Perlica is free and Antal is only 4-star, this team is fairly easy to set up early in the game, and offers a lot of fun and powerful synergies to work around.
Antal
Antal is another extremely versatile operator, and he's only 4-stars, meaning you're not only guaranteed to get him very quickly, but you'll be able to maximize his potential with ease.
What makes Antal so strong is his ability to work with electric and heat operators, meaning he fits perfectly into teams working around any element. His Ultimate applies Electric Amp and Heat Amp to the entire team, greatly increasing their damage.
This allows him to fit into two of the strongest teams in the game: Laevatain's Heat Team or Avywenna's Electric Team.
Avywenna
Avywenna is a 5-star electric damage dealer that connects well with many of the operators mentioned above. When building your first team, physical and electric are definitely easier due to the availability of operators, and Avywenna is the star of an electric-focused team.
Even without the most optimal equipment setup, as long as you have operators like Antal, Perlica, Arclight, or Akekuri, you can build a very strong electric team that will carry you through the story and let you save resources for future limited operators.
