Arknights Endfield weapons upgrade guide - Everything you need to max your kit
Maximising your Operators means maximising their kit, which is where our Arknights Endfield weapons upgrade guide comes in.
Having an upgraded character on your team can make quite a difference, but they won't be as efficient unless their gear is upgraded - and that includes their weapon. So, I have decided to cover the full list of materials you need in this Arknights Endfield weapons upgrade guide.
Weapons are the only pieces of gear (or equipment) that can be upgraded. The gear already comes levelled up, as long as you have the schematics. High-level gear (like armour, gloves, and kit) can only be crafted, so you need to have a base that is set for that.
How to get gear in Arknights Endfield?
I've dedicated an entire article on how to get every single gear set, so I recommend you go ahead and read it.
How to get weapons in Arknights Endfield?
Weapons are something completely different. You cannot craft weapons, but you can spend your Arsenal Tickets to get the weapons you want or need. You can find them in the Acquisition Center, in the Arsenal Exchange tab.The stock refills regularly, so you should be able to get every gear you want or need in due time.
Since we covered the materials needed to max your characters, it's only natural that we dive into the materials needed to max your gear, right? Let's see!

Leveling up a weapon will cost you increasingly more materials - weapon EXP (Arms Inspector/Arms INSP Kit/Arms INSP Set) and T-Creds. Once a weapon has reached a certain level, just like characters, you will need additional materials for a "breakthrough".Just like a character needs specific materials, so do weapons. However, the materials for upgrading the weapon's max level are completely different. They can be collected from various sites around the map, but they can also be farmed in the HUB.
How much EXP is needed to level up a weapon?
- Level 20: 8,890 EXP + 640 T-Creds
- Level 40: 105,540 EXP + 10,400 T-Creds
- Level 60: 290,540 EXP + 29,010 T-Creds
- Level 80: 1,203,710 EXP + 123,850 T-Creds
- Level 90: 2,524,080 EXP + 341,390 T-Creds

If you want your team to have exceptionally high stats, I strongly recommend getting some dupes for the weapons to raise their potential (which increases the weapon skills), and upgrading their level.
That said, you might want to revisit your team composition after all those weapon upgrades, and our Arknights Endfield tier list is a fantastic place to start!
