Arknights Endfield materials guide - Everything you need to max your characters

Our Arknights Endfield materials guide should help you keep the grind at bay when it comes to levelling up your Operators to the max.

Arknights Endfield materials guide - Everything you need to max your characters

When it comes to upgrading your characters in Arknights Endfield, I can only say that it's going to be a grind. The materials needed to fully upgrade your characters in this gorgeous RPG differ based on their rarity, but even so, not too much. 

You will need to farm specific spots quite a lot, especially if you are trying to upgrade all the Operators. To make things easier, I have created this Arknights Endfield materials guide where I bring you a complete list of resources that you need to fully upgrade your Operators, from level 1 to max level.

I included the materials needed for each character level milestone, so if there's something specific you're interested in when it comes to that, I'm sure you will find it here.

Talents are unlocked once you reach a new milestone with your character - at levels 40, 60, 80, and 90. Talents require different materials, and you should upgrade them as well, since they give you a lot of useful buffs (to the active skills and more).

Outfitting (Gear)

  • Elite 1 Outfitting I (Blue): 1,800 T-Creds 
  • Elite 2 Outfitting II (Purple): 6,500 T-Creds 
  • Elite 3 Outfitting III (Gold): 18,000 T-Creds 

These stats should help you calculate what you need to upgrade your favourite characters. To reach the maximum level with an Operator, you will need to farm a lot of resources and T-Creds, so if you're a F2P player, you need a lot of patience. 

It can all be done for free, but you should do every single instance daily, and farm the limited materials (Boletes) so you can stack them up.

And if you're all done with our Arknights Endfield materials guide, how about checking how each character ranks with our handy Arknights Endfield tier list?
