OPERATOR BUILDS

Best Weapon, Gear Set, Talents & Team for All 33 Operators

Updated: 2026-10-15
Table of Contents

Gear is the binding constraint in Arknights: Endfield, not operator quality. A finished three-piece set switches on a conditional effect written around a specific mechanic in an operator's kit, and that is a step change; pushing a weapon two refinements is an incremental stat bump on top of whatever you already had. This page gives every one of the 33 operators a build in that order: the gear set first, then the weapon, then the talent order, the rotation constraint, and the teams the operator actually shows up in.

Every recommendation carries a written reason naming the mechanic it keys off, because "run this set" is useless the moment your account does not have those pieces. There are 165 build variants across the roster, roughly five per operator, spanning 15 core gear sets. Where the community has published DPS tests, the percentage gap between the best weapon and the alternative is quoted so you can judge whether an upgrade is worth the essence. Where it has not, the entry says so rather than inventing a number.

Quick Answer

  • 01Finish the set before you refine the weapon. The gap between an operator's best and second-best weapon is usually single digits to low teens. Running the wrong set means a whole conditional effect never fires.
  • 02Signature weapons win for most operators, because they are designed around the exact resource the kit spends. The exceptions are named individually below.
  • 03Build the operator you already have pieces for. The index table shows which operators share a core set, so a set you have been farming tells you who is cheapest to bring online next.
  • 04Rarity does not change gearing. All 33 operators are covered, including the 9 five-stars and 5 four-stars; set effects do not read rarity, and narrower kits are easier to gear.
  • 05Check the rotation line before you commit. A "battery-heavy" operator cannot reach their ultimate alone. Where an Ultimate SP Gain set cuts the cycle count, the saving is stated on the operator's section.

Build Index: All 33 Operators

Akekuri Build: Best Weapon, Gear & Team

Akekuri portrait
A tier4★HeatVanguardSwordV1.0

Premier SP Battery for budget teams. Provides 'Link' buffs which act as a major damage multiplier.

Best gear set

Frontiers 3pc + Type 50 Yinglung 1pcSP Battery

As a budget SP battery, Flash and Dash and Cheer of Victory pour SP back to the team, so a full Frontiers set turns that constant SP recovery into a near-permanent team DMG +16%.

  • HandFrontiers Fiber Gloves T1
  • EDCFrontiers Comm

  • Team ATKType 50 Yinglung 3pc + Frontiers 1pc

    SQUAD! ON ME! and Link amplify the team, so Type 50 Yinglung's ATK +15% and the combo DMG it hands out after allies' battle skills lift the whole squad.

  • Stagger SupportSwordmancer 3pc + Æthertech 1pc

    Flash and Dash triggers on Staggered enemies and Stagger Nodes, so Swordmancer Stagger Efficiency +20% and its Physical-Status retaliation hit reinforce the stagger loop while returning SP.

  • Amp SupportEternal Xiranite 3pc + Æthertech 1pc

    SQUAD! ON ME! and Link buff the team broadly, and if any ally's Amp, Susceptibility, or Weakened lands nearby, Eternal Xiranite's team DMG +16% stacks on top while HP +1000 pads the SP battery.

  • Ultimate SupportAIC Fieldwork 3pc + Type 50 Yinglung 1pc

    Cheer of Victory and the SP economy feed the team's ultimates, so AIC Fieldwork's Ultimate Gain +10% brings them online sooner while all-type DMG +20% is a clean universal add.

Antal Build: Best Weapon, Gear & Team

Antal portrait
B tier4★ElectricSupporterArts UnitV1.0

Called the 'Best of the 4-Stars'. Mandatory for Single-Target Electric/Heat teams due to distinct multiplier coverage (Susceptibility + Amp).

Best gear set

Eternal Xiranite 4pcAmp Enabler

Both halves of the Eternal Xiranite trigger are covered: Electric and Heat Susceptibility from Specified Research Subject plus team Amp from Overclocked Moment, so team DMG +16% is always on for the carry Antal enables.

  • BodyEternal Xiranite Overalls
  • HandEternal Xiranite Gloves
  • EDCEternal Xiranite Power Core
  • EDCEternal Xiranite Rangefinder
Show 4 alternate Antal builds (Ultimate Amp, Arts Infliction, Electric Reaction, SP Support)

  • Ultimate AmpAIC Fieldwork 3pc + Eternal Xiranite 1pc

    Overclocked Moment applies team Amp on the ultimate, so AIC Fieldwork's Ultimate Gain +10% delivers the Amp window sooner while all-type DMG +20% adds to the Electric hits.

  • Arts InflictionTide Surge 3pc + Eternal Xiranite 1pc

    EMP Test Site stacks Arts Infliction on the Focus target, clearing Tide Surge's 2-stack threshold for Arts DMG +35% on the Electric output.

  • Electric ReactionPulser Labs 3pc + Eternal Xiranite 1pc

    Specified Research Subject applies Electric Susceptibility that pairs with Overclocked Moment's Amp, so Pulser Labs turns any Electrification the team triggers into Electric DMG +50%.

  • SP SupportFrontiers 3pc + Eternal Xiranite 1pc

    Overclocked Moment and the Focus-target kit keep team utility flowing, so Frontiers' Combo Skill CDR and team DMG +16% on SP recovery add another support layer.

Arcane Build: Best Weapon, Gear & Team

Arcane portrait
SS tier6★NatureCasterArts UnitV1.4

Headline 6-star limited Nature Caster (real name Li Zhiyan) built around Array Arcana, a stance system that flips her role based on her stat sheet. When Intellect is at least her Will she is an INT-state Corrosion DPS; when Will is higher she becomes a WILL-state controller who pulls, imprisons, and spreads Arts Inflictions. Her ceiling is a team property, rewarding a second element (Electric or Cryo) on the enemy for her Nature to react against.

Best gear set

Hot Work 3pc + Tide Surge 1pcINT Solo Carry

In Array Arcana: INT, Jadecrushing Grid lays Nature Infliction and Weapon Honing stretches the Corrosion Arcane applies, flipping on Hot Work Corrosion to Nature DMG +50% with no teammate.

  • BodyHot Work Exo-Rig
  • HandHot Work Gauntlets T1
  • EDCHot Work Insulation Slab
  • EDCTurbid Cutting Torch T1
Show 4 alternate Arcane builds (WILL Control, Reaction Carry, Ultimate Uptime, Nature Infliction)

  • WILL ControlEternal Xiranite 4pc

    In Array Arcana: WILL, Yinglung Stance IV applies Susceptibility (scaling with Will up to an 8% cap at 640 Will), which Eternal Xiranite converts into team DMG +16%. The twin Bracing Slabs and Wraps hold the Will lead and the Susceptibility payload; once Will clears the 640 cap the surplus is dead stat, so Light Armor T1 spends the body slot on Intellect for extra personal DMG while staying in WILL stance. Before the cap, swap to plain Light Armor (Will 110) to keep building Susceptibility.

  • Reaction CarryXiranflow 3pc + Bonekrusha 1pc

    With a teammate feeding Electrification or extra Corrosion, Xiranflow overtakes Hot Work: consuming those reactions grants Electric and Nature DMG +15% per Status Level.

  • Ultimate UptimeAIC Fieldwork 3pc + Eternal Xiranite 1pc

    Array Arcana stances gate the strongest rotations behind a full stance swap, so AIC Fieldwork's Ultimate Gain +10% brings the next stance online sooner while all-type DMG +20% lifts the Nature/Electric hybrid output.

  • Nature InflictionTide Surge 3pc + MI Security 1pc

    Jadecrushing Grid lays Nature Infliction as Array Arcana: INT builds Corrosion, easily clearing Tide Surge's 2-stack threshold for Arts DMG +35% on the caster's rotation.

  • WILL state offers rare grouping plus imprison CC plus Infliction spread
  • Long-lasting Corrosion shreds enemy resistance for the whole team

Weaknesses

  • Payoff scales with team support rather than solo stats

Definitive Electric core for SP management and converting infliction into Electrification. Difficult to master.

Best gear set

Frontiers 3pc + MI Security 1pcSP Enabler

Managing Electric SP and converting infliction into Electrification, Peal of Thunder recovers SP constantly, so Frontiers team DMG +16% on SP recovery has heavy uptime while the Combo Skill CDR tightens the loop.

  • Reaction EnablerXiranflow 3pc + Type 50 Yinglung 1pc

    Tempestuous Arc consumes Electrification, so Xiranflow grants Electric and Nature DMG +15% per Status Level consumed for a damage-leaning build.

  • Infliction DPSTide Surge 3pc + Pulser Labs 1pc

    Peal of Thunder and Exploding Blitz keep the Electric team's rotation moving, so Type 50 Yinglung's ATK +15% and its Combo DMG payoff after allies' battle skills lift the squad.

Avywenna Build: Best Weapon, Gear & Team

Avywenna portrait
S tier5★ElectricStrikerPolearmV1.0

Best gear set

Bonekrusha 4pcCombo Burst

Cycling battle and combo skills in the infinite Thunderlance chain keeps Bonekrushing Smash feeding the next battle-skill hit for +30%, while the flat ATK +15% scales the sustained Electric output.

Show 4 alternate Avywenna builds (Crit Carry, Electric Reaction, Susceptibility Support, Team Combo)

  • Crit CarryMI Security 3pc + Bonekrusha 1pc

    The infinite Thunderlance chain keeps hit volume high, so MI Security ramps its on-crit ATK to the cap and returns bonus Crit Rate for the Electric output.

  • Electric ReactionPulser Labs 3pc + Hot Work 1pc

    The combo Thunderlance: Strike fires on Electric Infliction and keeps Electrification active, so Pulser Labs turns that into Electric DMG +50%.

  • Susceptibility SupportEternal Xiranite 3pc + Hot Work 1pc

    Avywenna self-applies Arts Susceptibility through the infinite Thunderlance chain, a niche trigger for Eternal Xiranite's team DMG +16% that hands the whole team, Avywenna included, a damage boost while HP +1000 pads survivability.

  • Team ComboType 50 Yinglung 3pc + Bonekrusha 1pc

    The infinite Thunderlance chain is itself an endless combo window, so Type 50 Yinglung's ATK +15% and the Combo DMG +20% payoff after allies' battle skills stack cleanly onto the Electric output.

Camille Build: Best Weapon, Gear & Team

Camille portrait
S tier6★HeatVanguardLanceV1.3

Heat Vanguard built as a team engine rather than a carry. His Firefang Vesperwings (Blazing Exorcism) plant Heat Susceptibility and Weaken on the primary target, his Combo (Heartstake Thorn) and Ultimate (Sanguine Downpour) return large chunks of SP to the squad, and casting Combo on a Vesperwing target grants the team Link. Sanguine Downpour also queues a free enhanced combo for an extra SP and Link swing.

Best gear set

Frontiers 3pc + MI Security 1pcTeam Engine

Built as a Heat team engine, frequent SP recovery from Heartstake Thorn and Sanguine Downpour keeps Frontiers team DMG +16% live, and the Combo Skill CDR speeds the Firefang Vesperwings.

  • BodyFrontiers Protection Suit
  • HandFrontiers Fiber Gloves T1
  • EDCFrontiers Extra O2 Tube
  • EDCMI Security Scope
Show 4 alternate Camille builds (Debuff Support, Heat Sub-DPS, Infliction Support, Ultimate Support)

  • Debuff SupportEternal Xiranite 3pc + Pulser Labs 1pc

    Blazing Exorcism plants Heat Susceptibility and Weaken with the Firefang Vesperwings, both Eternal Xiranite triggers for team DMG +16%, the pick when a teammate already runs Frontiers.

  • Heat Sub-DPSHot Work 3pc + Type 50 Yinglung 1pc

    Bloodfount Revival stacks Heat DMG on every self-heal and the Firefang Vesperwings apply Heat Infliction, so Hot Work Combustion to Heat DMG +50% and +30 Arts Intensity turn the engine into a Heat sub-DPS.

  • Infliction SupportTide Surge 3pc + Pulser Labs 1pc

    The Firefang Vesperwings apply Heat Infliction on top of Blazing Exorcism's Weaken, easily clearing Tide Surge's 2-stack threshold for Arts DMG +35% on the Heat sub-DPS build.

  • Ultimate SupportAIC Fieldwork 3pc + Frontiers 1pc

    Heartstake Thorn and Sanguine Downpour keep the SP economy running toward the ultimate, so AIC Fieldwork's Ultimate Gain +10% brings it online sooner while all-type DMG +20% is a clean universal add.

The premier AoE burst DPS. A 'complete unit' at P0 whose Ultimate provides sustained AoE damage capable of crossing enemy waves.

Best gear set

Hot Work 3pc + Eternal Xiranite 1pcCombustion Carry

Smouldering Fire and Seethe keep Combustion applied, switching on Hot Work Heat DMG +50%, and the +30 Arts Intensity feeds the sustained Twilight AoE.

  • Ultimate UptimeAIC Fieldwork 3pc + Eternal Xiranite 1pc

    Laevatain does almost nothing before the Twilight ultimate, so AIC Fieldwork's Ultimate Gain +10% cadence plus all-type DMG +20% front-loads and sustains the AoE while +10% DMG Reduction cushions the melee.

  • Infliction CarryTide Surge 3pc + Eternal Xiranite 1pc

    Scorching Heart absorbs Heat Infliction stacks from nearby enemies, clearing Tide Surge's 2-stack threshold for Arts DMG +35% on the AoE.

  • Crit AoEMI Security 3pc + Tide Surge 1pc

    Twilight's wide AoE hits scale hard off crit at volume, so MI Security's on-crit ATK climb and bonus Crit Rate lift every hit in the burst.

  • Combo CycleQingbo 3pc + Eternal Xiranite 1pc

    Seethe stacks on a fast battle-skill and combo cycle, so Qingbo's Combo Skill CDR speeds that loop while the on-combo Skill DMG +20% adds to the sustained AoE.

Best gear set

Tide Surge 3pc + Frontiers 1pcInfliction Burst

  • Crit Boss KillerMI Security 3pc + Frontiers 1pc

    Cryogenic Embrittlement multiplies the ultimate by 1.5 against Cryo Susceptibility, so the whole kit funnels into one big single-target hit and MI Security crit stacking scales that boss burst.

  • Ultimate Boss KillerAIC Fieldwork 3pc + Eternal Xiranite 1pc

    A boss killer living on Vigil Services burst windows, so AIC Fieldwork Ultimate Gain +10% delivers more full rotations while all-type DMG +20% and +10% DMG Reduction cover the melee lock.

  • Cryo Burst AlternativeDeep Rampart 3pc + Frontiers 1pc

    Esoteric Legacy of Ses'qa has the Mirages apply Cryo Infliction on every Final Strike, so each application past the first is a Cryo Burst on the way to the 3 stacks Winter's Devourer consumes. The pick when a teammate is already holding Tide Surge, which fires on the same event for a bigger number.

  • Solidification ReactionPulser Labs 3pc + Frontiers 1pc

    The Mirages keep reapplying Cryo Infliction into a Cryo team's Solidification, which is exactly the trigger Pulser Labs wants, turning that reaction into Cryo DMG +50% on top of the boss-killer burst.

Best gear set

LYNX 3pc + Eternal Xiranite 1pcDedicated Healer

Dawnstar Concerto lands the largest HP Treatment in the kit and Dazzling Focus keeps a smaller heal ticking through Vocalist Stance, so LYNX Treatment Efficiency +20% scales every layer of that healing while each heal hands the target 15% damage reduction on top of the Treatment Protection talent.

  • Team ATKType 50 Yinglung 3pc + Bonekrusha 1pc

    Dazzling Focus, Vocalist Stance and Dawnstar Concerto each stack a team ATK Boost, so Type 50 Yinglung ATK +15% and the combo DMG it grants after allies use battle skills compound the buff the kit is already built around.

  • SP BatteryFrontiers 3pc + Eternal Xiranite 1pc

    Delightful Harmonics returns SP on a 10s cooldown and the Electric Skill Recovery talent pushes more SP to Electric teammates, so Frontiers turns that steady SP recovery into near-permanent team DMG +16% and shortens the combo cooldown feeding it.

  • Ultimate UptimeAIC Fieldwork 3pc + Eternal Xiranite 1pc

    The 160 SP Dawnstar Concerto carries the Amp, the team ATK Boost and the biggest heal at once, so AIC Fieldwork Ultimate Gain +10% brings that payload online sooner while all-type DMG +20% is a clean universal add.

Whirlwind Strike keeps wide AoE and Bleed uptime, so MI Security ramps its on-crit ATK to the cap and returns bonus Crit Rate, compounding with the ATK +8% per Physical Status from Tactical Insight.

  • Team AnchorType 50 Yinglung 3pc + MI Security 1pc

    Field Commander anchors the Physical team, so Type 50 Yinglung turns allies' battle skills into +20% Combo DMG on Crimson Crescent while ATK +15% feeds the AoE.

  • Combo SnowballBonekrusha 3pc + MI Security 1pc

    Crimson Crescent fires on Bleed and Physical Status before the next Whirlwind Strike, so Bonekrushing Smash lands a +30% hit while ATK +15% scales the AoE.

  • Team UltimateAIC Fieldwork 3pc + Type 50 Yinglung 1pc

    Field Commander anchors the squad while Crimson Crescent is the biggest single hit, so AIC Fieldwork's all-type DMG +20% and Ultimate Gain +10% front-load that burst while the DR eases frontline AoE trades.

  • Status AoESwordmancer 3pc + Pulser Labs 1pc

    Whirlwind Strike keeps wide AoE and Bleed uptime piling on Physical Status, so Swordmancer's extra 250% hit and Stagger Efficiency add to the AoE while stacking with Tactical Insight's per-status ATK.

Lupine Scarlet119.9% at R9

Rossi's signature Sword and the reason Glorious Memory reads as the budget option. Fracture: Gnashing Wolves gives ATK +44.8% up front, then banks a Wolven Blood stack on every critical hit for Physical and Heat DMG Dealt +2.8% each. At 16 stacks it pays out a further +67.2% for 20 seconds. The Critical Rate substat is what makes the ramp reliable, so the weapon effectively builds its own payout condition.

Si Build: Best Weapon, Gear & Team

Si portrait
S tier6★CryoSupporterGreatswordV1.6

Version 1.6 limited Supporter on the [Rejuvenation] banner (October 15 to November 5, 2026), and the first Supporter to use a Greatsword. Her Battle Skill marks a target with Artful Intent, which records part of the damage it takes and bursts for that much Fixed DMG when it ends, and its recasts pull out an Inksoul that passes every hit to its host. Her Combo Skill summons an Ink Lung that grows with the Cryo or Heat Infliction stacks a teammate consumes or absorbs, and her Ultimate gives the whole team Cryo Amp and Heat Amp. The operator in Team Position 1 decides both her Infliction element and who gets her talent's combo cooldown cut.

Best gear set

Type 50 Yinglung 3pc + Eternal Xiranite 1pcCombo Carry

Fully Envisioned's Ink Lung is the biggest hit in the kit (750% ATK plus 100% per Infliction stack consumed), and every battle skill the team casts adds a stack of Yinglung's Edge for up to Combo DMG +60% on it. Version 1.6 added the first Intellect and Strength pieces with Combo Skill DMG lines: the Soft Armor and two Beacons hold the 3-piece set, and the Eternal Xiranite Channeling Gloves carry the same stats in the hand slot. In the Si damage calculator the Ink Lung hits about 29% harder than with the best Eternal Xiranite build. The default, because Xaihi, Ardelia, Arcane and Gilberta usually already hold Eternal Xiranite, whose team buff does not stack.

  • HandEternal Xiranite Channeling Gloves
  • EDCType 50 Yinglung Beacon
  • EDCType 50 Yinglung Beacon
Show 4 alternate Si builds (Amp Buffer, Amp Uptime, Ultimate Cadence, Cryo Infliction)

  • Amp BufferEternal Xiranite 4pc

    No One Spoils the Fun grants the whole team Cryo Amp and Heat Amp, the Eternal Xiranite trigger for team DMG +16%. Run it only when no teammate already wears Eternal Xiranite, since the buff does not stack, as in Heat teams around Laevatain. The 1.6 MOD Armor, Channeling Gloves and Rangefinders keep Intellect, Strength and Combo Skill DMG on every slot. A LYNX Slab in place of the second Rangefinder trades a little Ink Lung damage for Ultimate damage and comes out even.

  • Amp UptimeEternal Xiranite 4pc

    Each No One Spoils the Fun is another Amp window and, through Proxy's Patronage, another 10s to 20s off the Team Position 1 operator's combo cooldown. The Overalls, Gloves and two Power Cores put Ultimate Gain Efficiency on every slot (+82% in total) while keeping Intellect and Strength, at the cost of more than half the Ink Lung damage of the Combo Carry build.

  • Ultimate CadenceAIC Fieldwork 3pc + Eternal Xiranite 1pc

    AIC Fieldwork's Ultimate Gain +10% stacks with the Ultimate Gain line on every piece for about the same Amp uptime as the Eternal Xiranite version, and its all-type DMG +20% keeps slightly more Ink Lung damage. The pick when a teammate already holds Eternal Xiranite but the team wants more Amp windows and more Proxy's Patronage cooldown cuts.

  • Cryo InflictionTide Surge 3pc + Eternal Xiranite 1pc

    Brushwork Realm applies Cryo Infliction (Heat with a Heat operator in Team Position 1) and teammates keep stacking it, clearing Tide Surge's 2-stack threshold for Arts DMG +35% on the Ink Lung and the Giant Ink Lung. The set's Skill DMG +20% gives the biggest Ultimate of the five builds, but the Ink Lung lands well short of the Combo Carry build.

Strengths

  • Team-wide Cryo Amp and Heat Amp (20% to 36% by skill rank) for 12 seconds on an 80-energy Ultimate
  • Artful Intent returns recorded damage as Fixed DMG, which ignores DEF and RES
  • Works in both Cryo and Heat teams: a Heat operator in slot 1 switches her Infliction to Heat
  • Proxy's Patronage cuts the slot 1 operator's combo cooldown by up to 20 seconds after each Ultimate
  • The Inksoul keeps damage landing on a boss that moves or teleports away

Weaknesses

  • Her Combo Skill needs a teammate who consumes or absorbs Cryo or Heat Infliction
  • Amp only covers Cryo and Heat, so she adds little to Physical, Electric or Nature teams
  • Brings no healing or shields
  • Getting the most from her depends on team order (slot 1)

  • Team ShieldEternal Xiranite 3pc + Pulser Labs 1pc

    Saturated Defense grants Protection to nearby operators, applying Protected, which triggers Eternal Xiranite's team DMG +16% while HP +1000 bulks the counter-tank.

  • Stagger TankSwordmancer 3pc + Æthertech 1pc

    Saturated Defense's retaliation and the counter-tank kit pile on Physical Status, so Swordmancer's extra 250% hit and Stagger Efficiency reinforce the lockdown.

  • Crit UltimateMI Security 3pc + Frontiers 1pc

    Frigid Snowfield is a big ultimate hit, so MI Security's on-crit ATK climb and bonus Crit Rate lift that burst window.

RIVER, TO ME! plants a cryo tornado and DA CHIEF SEES YOU! lays a cryo field, and both keep reapplying Cryo Infliction to whatever stands inside them, so every reapplication on an already-inflicted enemy is a Cryo Burst and Deep Rampart holds all 3 Arts Intensity stacks.

  • Cryo InflictionTide Surge 3pc + Æthertech 1pc

    DA CHIEF SEES YOU! blankets enemies in Cryo Infliction, easily clearing Tide Surge's 2-stack threshold for Arts DMG +35%.

  • Ultimate UptimeAIC Fieldwork 3pc + Type 50 Yinglung 1pc

    DA CHIEF SEES YOU! is an ultimate that wants near-constant uptime, so AIC Fieldwork's Ultimate Gain +10% keeps the cryo field down while all-type DMG +20% supports the caster.

  • Solidification ReactionPulser Labs 3pc + Æthertech 1pc

    The persistent Cryo field keeps stacking Solidification on anything caught inside, so Pulser Labs turns that reaction into Cryo DMG +50% on top of the AoE.

Typhoeus Build: Best Weapon, Gear & Team

Typhoeus portrait
SS tier6★NatureStrikerArts UnitV1.5

Version 1.5 Phase 1 limited headliner, the first Nature Striker and the first Arts Unit user in the game to scale on Agility. Her weapon class is Arts Unit rather than a new bow class, so anything already in that pool is legal on her. Two resources drive the kit: Signs accumulate from every team Nature Burst and every Nature Infliction stack her aerial attacks consume, and a full set of Signs converts into Hunting Arrows that empower her attacks into guaranteed Nature Bursts. Roughly 73 percent of her damage comes from those bursts on a static multiplier, so you build her team from Nature stack sources rather than from raw damage buffs.

Best gear set

Deep Rampart 3pc + Bonekrusha 1pcSingle Target Carry

Every Power Shot forcibly applies a Nature Burst, so Deep Rampart never misses its trigger: Arts DMG Dealt +16% runs unconditionally and the Arts Intensity holds all 3 stacks. The tested single-target loadout gives up the Deep Rampart Armor for a Bonekrusha Poncho T1, whose Ultimate Gain Efficiency covers the rotations where only one enemy is feeding energy, because Call of Ice Mountain reloads Hunting Arrows and resets the Hovering window.

  • EDCDeep Rampart Comms
  • EDCDeep Rampart Comms
Show 4 alternate Typhoeus builds (Multi Target Carry, Farming Placeholder, Ultimate Uptime, Combo Cooldown)

  • Multi Target CarryDeep Rampart 3pc + Qingbo 1pc

    Extra targets feed Ultimate Energy for free, so the Ultimate Gain body piece comes off and the full Deep Rampart line goes on. Each Aerial Basic Attack shoots up to 2 targets, so one Power Shot can apply Nature Burst twice and the Arts Intensity stacks refresh constantly. The bonus caps at 3 pieces, which frees the fourth slot, and testing puts a Qingbo Bamboo Cutter there for the All Skill DMG.

  • Farming PlaceholderAIC Fieldwork 3pc + Eternal Xiranite 1pc

    The stand-in while Deep Rampart is farmed. Around 73% of the damage is Nature Bursts on a static multiplier and nothing in the kit supplies generic damage, so DMG Dealt +20% for all types is the rare buff that reaches those bursts, with no condition to miss and Ultimate Gain +10% for the single-target rotations.

  • Ultimate UptimeBonekrusha 3pc + MI Security 1pc

    Rampant Thorns converts a full set of Signs into Hunting Arrows and feeds straight into the Battle Skill, so Bonekrushing Smash lands its +30% on the hit that carries the Power Shots while ATK +15% scales every one. The Bonekrusha Poncho T1 keeps the Ultimate Gain Efficiency that Call of Ice Mountain wants.

  • Combo CooldownQingbo 3pc + Type 50 Yinglung 1pc

    The pre-release recommendation. Combo Skill Cooldown Reduction +15% brings the next Rampant Thorns batch of Hunting Arrows around sooner and each cast banks Skill DMG Dealt +20% for 15s. Launch testing moved the build onto Deep Rampart, and only the single Bamboo Cutter survived as the fourth piece.

Zhuang Fangyi Build: Best Weapon, Gear & Team

Zhuang Fangyi portrait
SS tier6★ElectricStrikerArts UnitV1.2

Assault operator specializing in sustained Electric DMG with Arts Unit weapon. Creates Sunderblades to unleash continuous Thunder Strikes. Ultimate transforms her into Empyrean of Truth for enhanced combat.

Best gear set

Xiranflow 3pc + Bonekrusha 1pcElectrification Consume

Mantra of Sundering consumes Electrification to spawn Sunderblades, and Xiranflow rewards exactly that with Electric and Nature DMG +15% per Status Level consumed, scaling with the Status Levels the Empyrean of Truth ultimate enables.

  • Transform UptimeAIC Fieldwork 3pc + Eternal Xiranite 1pc

    The Smiting Tempest transformation is ultimate-gated, so AIC Fieldwork's Ultimate Gain +10% shortens the downtime while all-type DMG +20% and +10% DMG Reduction suit the sustained Electric melee.

  • Electric ReactionPulser Labs 3pc + Hot Work 1pc

    The sustained Thunder Strikes keep Electrification active, so Pulser Labs turns that Electrification into Electric DMG +50%.

  • Combo AmpBonekrusha 4pc

    Mantra of Sundering into a battle skill during the Smiting Tempest transformation keeps Bonekrushing Smash's +30% hit live while ATK +15% feeds the sustained Electric melee.

  • Electric InflictionTide Surge 3pc + Hot Work 1pc

    The sustained Thunder Strikes stack Electric Infliction fast enough to clear Tide Surge's 2-stack threshold for Arts DMG +35%.

Which Operators Share Each Gear Set

Gear farming is the slow part of an account, so the cheapest next operator to build is usually one who runs a set you already have pieces for. These are the sets at least one operator runs as a full three-piece primary build, ordered by how many operators want them.

Where These Recommendations Come From

Every line on this page is traceable to a named source, and the sources do different jobs. Nothing here is the output of a single simulator, and no recommendation is generated automatically from stat totals.

Gear sets

The 165 build variants are hand-authored against each operator's kit, then resolved into concrete Tier 4 pieces. The reasoning is always the same shape: identify what resource the kit spends or generates, then pick the set whose conditional effect keys off that resource. An operator who cycles battle skills constantly wants a set that pays out on battle-skill hits; an operator whose damage is concentrated in one burst window wants a set that ramps crit inside it. The note attached to each build names that mechanic explicitly, so you can tell whether the reasoning still holds after a rebalance. Piece selection inside the set is scored against the operator's stat priorities over the full Tier 4 gear list, which is the same data behind the artificing planner.

Weapons

Weapon picks come from two editorial sources and are cross-checked against community testing. The first is the per-operator roster, which names a best weapon and a short reason. The second is the weapon tier list, which carries a longer justification tied to the weapon's skill text and the operator's rotation; it covers the weapons that have been ranked, which is most but not all of the roster. Each entry on this page states which source its reason came from. Where the two disagree, both weapons are shown rather than one being silently dropped.

The percentages labelled community DPS test are a separate thing and should be read as such. They are community-run comparisons of one operator's weapons against each other, normalised so that operator's best tested weapon reads 100%, measured at the refinement shown. They are useful for judging the size of a gap, not for comparing one operator against another, and for a handful of recently released operators the community publishes qualitative ratings instead of numbers. Those are shown as the rating text rather than converted into a percentage that was never measured.

Talent order and rotation

Talent priority is the per-operator investment order across Ultimate, Basic, Skill and Combo. The rotation figures, ultimate profile, battle-skill bottleneck, cycle count to ultimate and the effect of an Ultimate SP Gain set, are derived from each operator's skill cooldowns, ultimate SP cost and SP generation per cycle. That last figure is the one worth acting on: where a set changes the cycle count, it is a concrete argument for that set that no damage number exposes.

Teams

Teams are the ranked compositions from the team tier list, filtered to the ones an operator actually appears in, with the operator's own compositions listed first. For the small number of operators who are not in a ranked composition yet, the partner list from the roster is shown instead and labelled as such, rather than a team being invented to fill the slot.

Freshness

The date at the top of this page is the most recent refresh across those sources. They do not all move together: the tier list and team tier list update on balance changes and new releases, gear builds are revised when a kit or a set changes, and the community DPS figures lag furthest behind because they depend on people running tests. If a recommendation looks wrong against a recent patch, the gear reasoning is the part to check first, because it states the mechanic it depends on.

When to ignore all of this: these builds assume endgame content. If you are still working through the story, almost any completed set clears, and the gear you can actually farm beats the gear a page told you to want. The recommendations matter for Contingency Contract and the weekly endgame modes, where the conditional set effects are what carry a run.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best weapon for each operator in Arknights: Endfield?

For most operators the best weapon is their own signature, because signature weapons are built around the exact mechanic the operator's kit spends: Yvonne wants Artzy Tyrannical for its Cryo damage and crit lines, Laevatain wants Forgeborn Scathe, Camille wants Blessing of Lustrous Carmine. The exceptions matter more than the rule though. Where an operator has no signature yet, or where the signature leans on a stat their build does not actually use, a well-matched standard weapon wins. Each operator section on this page names the pick, the runner-up, and the specific reason, and where community DPS tests exist the percentage gap between the two is shown so you can judge whether the upgrade is worth the essence.

What gear set should I farm for this operator?

Start with the primary build listed in the operator's section. Every gear recommendation on this page is a three-piece set plus one flex slot, chosen against what the operator's kit actually does rather than against raw stat totals. An operator who cycles battle skills constantly wants a set that rewards battle-skill hits; an operator whose damage is concentrated in one burst window wants a set that ramps crit inside that window. Each build carries a written reason naming the mechanic it keys off. Alternate builds are listed underneath for cases where you own different pieces or run the operator in a different role.

Which operator should I build first?

Build the operator you already have gear pieces for, not the highest-ranked one you own. Gear is the binding constraint in Arknights: Endfield, not operator quality, because a three-piece set on a B-tier operator beats a mismatched loadout on an SS-tier one. Use the index table at the top of this page to see which operators share a core set: if you have been farming one set already, the operators running that set are the cheapest to bring online next. Past that, prioritise by what your account is short of rather than by tier, since a roster with three damage dealers and no enabler clears less content than a balanced one.

Does the gear set or the weapon refinement matter more?

The gear set, in almost every case. Completing a three-piece set switches on a conditional effect keyed to the operator's kit, which is a step change; pushing a weapon from R4 to R9 is an incremental stat increase on top of whatever you already had. The community DPS tests quoted in each section make this visible: the gap between an operator's best and second-best weapon at the same refinement is usually in the single digits to low teens, while running the wrong gear set means an entire conditional effect never fires. Finish the set first, then refine.

How do I build a 5-star or 4-star operator?

Exactly the same way, and it is worth doing. This page covers all 33 operators, 18 six-stars, 10 five-stars and 5 four-stars, and the lower-rarity operators get the same kit-derived gear builds as the rest because the set effects do not care about rarity. Lower-rarity operators typically have narrower kits, which actually makes gearing them easier: there is usually one obvious set rather than a judgement call between three. They also reach usable investment far sooner, which matters when your gear supply is the limit.

Where do the talent priority orders come from?

They are the skill investment order extracted per operator: which of Ultimate, Basic, Skill and Combo returns the most for the next upgrade level. The order is operator-specific and frequently counterintuitive. An operator whose damage is concentrated in the ultimate wants ultimate levels first even when the basic attack is what they spend most of the fight doing, because the basic attack is a delivery mechanism for ultimate energy rather than a damage source. Follow the listed order until you hit a material wall, then spread.

What do the rotation figures mean?

Each operator section lists an ultimate profile, a battle-skill bottleneck, and the number of cycles needed to reach the ultimate. "Battery-heavy" means the operator cannot reach their ultimate on their own and needs an SP generator in the team; "self-sufficient" means they can. Where a set that grants Ultimate SP Gain would cut the cycle count, the saving is stated explicitly, because that is a direct argument for one gear set over another that raw damage numbers do not show.

Should I follow the listed team compositions exactly?

Treat them as starting points. The teams shown are the ranked community compositions this operator appears in, and they assume you own every member. If you are missing one, substitute the closest archetype (same class, similar damage type, similar buff profile) and you usually lose far less than the tier gap suggests. The weapon and gear picks are much less substitutable, because those are tied to the operator's own stat priorities rather than to the rest of the team.
