Hot Tips
Explore all 435 tipsArknights Endfield uses 51-day patch cycle
The game runs on a 7.2 week (51-day) patch cycle based on banner durations. Laevatain and Gil banners last 17 days each, with Yvonne's banner running until the next version drops. This is 9 days longer than most 3D gacha games which typically use 6-week cycles. Plan your gacha currency and pulls accordingly for this extended cycle.
Gacha System Mechanics: Pity, Rates, and Currency
Weapon rolls (arsenal tickets) can be acquired with oroberyl. Free 10-pull on current banner after 30 pulls (does NOT count toward pity). 120 pity guarantee for rate-up with NO pity carry over. 80 pity for 50/50 banner with pity carry over but NO guarantee. Weapon rate-up is 25/75 (only 25% chance at the rate-up weapon, NOT 75%). These mechanics were confirmed in a live stream update.
Laevatain Best Weapons & Gear
Best weapon: Forgeborn Scathe (signature) - Heat DMG +16%, after Ultimate Basic Attack DMG +75% for 20s (makes post-Ultimate window stronger). Alternative: Umbral Torch. Best gear set: Hot Work - Arts Intensity +30, when applying Combustion Heat DMG +60% for 8s. Note: Nature version exists for Corrosion but cannot stack both.
Laevatain Farming Optimization Setup
In material farming, mobs can die before Ultimate ends, leaving you with 4 stacks but no targets for energy. Next fight starts with 0 Ultimate Energy, feeling slow. Reduce this by using a 4-piece Ultimate gain setup, though tradeoff is lower damage. This is a 'daily farming comfort' setup for near-max progression Laevatain.
Laevatain Ultimate Energy & Stack Mechanics
At P0 (0 ascension), Laevatain is a complete operator. Her main value is her Ultimate for strong AoE damage and mob clearing. Ultimate Energy carries over between fights, but Melting Flame stacks do NOT. At P0, she needs 2 Battle Skills to reach 4 Melting Flame stacks to fully recharge energy. Weakness: When Ultimate is down, damage is significantly lower.
Howling Flame: Agony Boss Mechanics to Master
For Howling Flame: Agony boss fights, focus on these core mechanics: SP management, Stagger meter management, and operator resource management. The encounter features multiple Enraged Cycles (7+ cycles in extended runs). Boss emphasizes concentration and visual awareness (color-blindness/contrast sensitivity challenges during red-phase attacks). Proper resource hoarding and management is critical for success.
