Currencies

Arknights: Endfield uses three gacha currencies. Oroberyl is the standard currency costing 500 per pull (5,000 for a 10-pull). Origeometry is the premium currency that converts at 1 Origeometry to 75 Oroberyl. Arsenal Tickets are earned from character pulls and used exclusively for weapon banners.

Oroberyl

Standard in-game currency.
10 Pulls = 5,000 Oroberyl.

Origeometry

Premium currency.
1 Origeometry = 75 Oroberyl.

Arsenal Tickets

Used for Weapons. Obtained by pulling characters or converting Premium currency.

Character Banners

In Arknights: Endfield, character banners have an 80-pull hard pity for a guaranteed 6-star (soft pity begins at 65 pulls with +5% rate per pull). The limited character has a 50/50 chance on each 6-star pull. A 120-pull safety net guarantees the featured limited character but does not carry over between banners.

Rates & Hard Pity

  • Soft Pity: Starts at 65th pull. Rate increases by 5% per pull.
  • Hard Pity: 80th pull guarantees a 6★.
  • The 50/50: When you pull a 6★, there is a 50% chance it is the Limited Character.
  • Off-Banner: If you miss the 50/50, you get a Standard character.

The 120 Guarantee

  • At 120 Pulls, you receive the Limited Character directly.
  • WARNING: This 120-count does NOT carry over to the next banner.
  • Always aim to have 120 pulls saved before starting.

Global Launch Feature: Urgent Recruitment

At 30 pulls on the Limited Banner, you gain 10x Free Pulls.

  • These free pulls do NOT count towards the 120 guarantee.
  • Pulling a 6★ with these free pulls does NOT consume your existing guarantee.

Carry-Over System

The current Limited Character will remain available in the pool for the next 2 Limited Banners as a potential "Off-Banner" 50/50 result. This reduces the pain of missing the rate-up.

Limited Banner Rewards Strategy

The Headhunting Dossier (60 Pull Reward)

At exactly 60 Pulls on the Limited Character Banner, you receive a Headhunting Dossier.

  • Does NOT exist on Standard, Beginner, or Weapon banners.
  • Cannot be used for Pity/Guarantee on the current banner.
  • Valid ONLY for the NEXT Limited Banner.
  • ! No Guarantee Progress: These free pulls do NOT count towards the 120 guarantee of the next banner.

Weapon Banners

Arknights: Endfield weapon banners use Arsenal Tickets earned from character pulls (6-star gives 2,000 tickets, 5-star gives 200). Weapon banners have a 4% base 6-star rate with a 25/75 chance for the rate-up weapon. Hard pity guarantees a 6-star weapon at 40 pulls, and 80 pulls guarantees the exclusive weapon.

Currency: Arsenal Tickets

Weapons are pulled using Arsenal Tickets, not Oroberyl directly. You get tickets by pulling characters:

  • 6★ Character 2,000 Tickets
  • 5★ Character 200 Tickets
  • 4★ Character 20 Tickets

Paid Origeometry can also be converted to Tickets.

Weapon Rates & Mechanics

  • Cost: 1,980 Tickets per 10-Pull.
  • 6★ Rate: 4% (Higher than characters).
  • Rate Up Chance: 25% Hit / 75% Miss.
  • Pity: Guaranteed 6★ Weapon at 40 Pulls.
  • Expected Rate: 1% (4% base × 25% chance).

Weapon Pity & Milestones

Mechanics Deep Dive: Hard Pity & The 25/75 Rule

Hard Pity (Pull 40): If you have not seen any 6★ by pull 40, the 40th pull is guaranteed to be a 6★ weapon.

The 25/75 Split: Whenever a 6★ weapon appears (early or at pull 40), there is a 25% chance it is the Exclusive Weapon and a 75% chance it is a standard 6★.

Important: The 40th pull guarantee only ensures "A 6★ Weapon" appears. It does not guarantee the Exclusive one—the 25/75 logic still applies.

If you haven't found the specific Exclusive Weapon by the 79th pull, the 80th pull guarantees it. Additionally, there is a milestone track:

100th 6★ Selector
180th Exclusive Weapon
260th 6★ Selector
340th Exclusive Weapon
Pro Tip: You can buy crucial 6★ Weapons outright from the shop for 2,480 Arsenal Tickets. The shop refreshes weekly.

Don't get caught with 110 pulls when the banner ends.
