Arknights: Endfield Argent Flow Build Guide: Skills, Weapon, Potential and Teams

Argent Flow is almost here, and he is bringing his own horse. This 6-star Guard wields a Sword and uses the Electric element, then charges through enemy lines on his galloper Nuli like the front line is a personal inconvenience. His kit focuses on Vulnerability, Electric Infliction, Electrification, Sunderization, and Crush.

In this Argent Flow build guide, we will go through everything currently known about his skills and combat mechanics. We will also cover his Weapon, Gear, and team compositions. Some details are still unavailable because the information is based on the Version Preview, so those sections will be updated once Version 1.6 releases and more information becomes available.

Argent Flow Overview

Argent Flow is a 6-star character in Arknights: Endfield. He belongs to the Guard class, wields a Sword, and uses the Electric element. He arrives in the second half of Version 1.6 on November 5, 2026, through the Chartered Headhunting banner "The Hearth Fire Beckons the Starry Flow."

His gameplay revolves around turning Electric Infliction into high-level Electrification. When Argent Flow applies Electrification, the target also takes increased damage from all damage types, and he adds Sunderization stacks equal to the Electrification level. Any Crush hit, including his own Ultimate, then detonates those stacks for AoE Electric DMG.

Because that damage amplification is not limited to Arts, he can sit in both Physical and Arts teams, which makes him a hybrid damage dealer and amplifier.

 

Skills

Basic Attack

Dust Resplendent

BASIC ATTACK:

An attack with up to 5 sequences that deals Physical DMG.

FINISHER:

When performing a finisher on an enemy, Argent Flow deals massive Physical DMG and restores some SP.

Battle Skill

Darkness Cowed / Bolt Rush

Darkness Cowed (100 SP): Argent Flow sweeps nearby enemies with his weapon, dealing Physical DMG and applying Lift to targets in front of him.

After Argent Flow casts his Combo Skill, this Battle Skill temporarily changes into Bolt Rush.

Bolt Rush (100 SP): Argent Flow charges forward with Nuli, dealing Electric DMG. It consumes Electric Infliction stacks from enemies within a large area in front of him, applies high-level Electrification, and applies 1 stack of Vulnerability.

Combo Skill

Stars Shifted

Unleashes a multi-sequence attack that deals Electric DMG and applies Electric Infliction to the enemy. It also changes Argent Flow's Battle Skill into Bolt Rush.

Trigger:

When an enemy becomes Vulnerable.

Ultimate

Heavens Sundered

Argent Flow charges forward, dealing continuous Electric DMG to targets in front of him and dragging weak enemies to the end point of the charge.

After the charge ends, he leaps into the air and unleashes a Cleansing Cleave on the ground, dealing Electric DMG and applying 1 stack of Electric Infliction to the target. Argent Flow then pierces the ground with his lance, applying Crush and dealing Electric DMG to enemies within a large area.

 

Talents

Base Talent

Base Talent

Not yet revealed in the Version Preview. This section will be updated after release.

Combat Talent

Zenith of Voltmancy

When Argent Flow applies Electrification, this Electrification also increases all types of DMG Taken by the target for the same duration, and he also applies Sunderization stack(s) on the target equal to the Electrification Status Level. Sunderization lasts for a certain duration. When dealing Crush DMG to a target with Sunderization, this Crush DMG is increased, and all Sunderization stacks on the target are detonated. The explosion deals Electric DMG (based on the number of stacks) to the target and nearby enemies. If the explosion hits another enemy with Sunderization, it also detonates all Sunderization stacks on that enemy.

 

Best Weapons

Lunar Calling

Lunar Calling is Argent Flow's signature weapon and the most natural fit for his kit. It provides Will and ATK, which lines up with his main attribute, and carries an Infliction passive, which fits a kit built around applying and consuming Electric Infliction.

It arrives through the Moongleam Issue Arsenal banner on November 5. The preview confirms the stat direction but not the final passive values, so the exact gap over alternatives will only be clear after release.

Complexed Industry

Complexed Industry is a 6-star Sword from the Inkscroll Protocol Pass, where it is one of two selectable weapons alongside the Greatsword Long Heritage. Early assessments rate it as one of Argent Flow's strongest non-signature options, ahead of Eminent Repute and White Night Nova, and it is attractive if you would rather not spend Arsenal Tickets on Lunar Calling.

Its final passive values are still unconfirmed, so treat this ranking as provisional.

Eminent Repute / White Night Nova

Eminent Repute fits Physical teams, while White Night Nova suits Hybrid and Arts teams that lean harder on his Electrification damage. Both provide a Main Attribute that Argent Flow can use.

Both are usable if you already own them, but they are better treated as existing-weapon options than as targets worth pulling for.

Weapon Priority: Lunar Calling > Complexed Industry > Eminent Repute / White Night Nova

 

Best Gear

Pulser Labs Set

Pulser Labs is the most likely best early gear set for Argent Flow. Bolt Rush can force Electrification on its own, which lets him activate the set's Electric DMG bonus whenever he needs it before moving into his Ultimate burst.

Armor	Gloves	Kit	Kit
Pulser Labs Armor	Pulser Labs Gloves	Pulser Labs Kit	Pulser Labs Kit

The main consideration is timing. The buff window is not long, so using Heavens Sundered soon after applying Electrification gives the best value. Version 1.6 also adds new gear pieces, so the final piece-by-piece recommendation may change after release.

Swordmancer is a usable alternative, since he applies Lift with Darkness Cowed and Crush with Heavens Sundered. However, none of its current pieces gives Will as a main attribute, which hurts his damage.

 

Best Team Comps

Argent Flow benefits most from teammates who can use his damage amplification window and help him stack Electric Infliction. Because his Electrification raises all damage taken, he fits both Physical and Arts-focused teams.

The teams below are presented as strong options rather than a strict ranking. Each composition uses his amplification a little differently.

Team 1

Argent Flow	Chen Qianyu	Endministrator	Pogranichnik

This is a mono-Physical variation that uses Argent Flow to group enemies and raise the damage Chen Qianyu and the rest of the Physical core deal. His Electrification increases Physical DMG taken too, and his Crush and Sunderization burst adds an extra source of AoE damage.

Pogranichnik keeps SP flowing, while the Endministrator supplies additional Physical damage and utility. The composition gives Argent Flow a clear job without requiring any Arts investment. In the official Physical demo, Bolt Rush applied Electrification with 2 Sunderization stacks, and the Endministrator's Battle Skill supplied the Crush that detonated them.

Team 2

Argent Flow	Liino	Arcane	Gilberta

This is an Arts-focused composition built around stacking Electric Inflictions to reach Level 4 Electrification. Argent Flow and Arcane build the Infliction, while Arcane and Gilberta can also stack Nature Infliction and trigger Electrification through Arts Reactions.

Liino adds Electric support and sustain around the rotation. Once Electrification and Sunderization are up, the team spends its damage window and Argent Flow finishes with his Ultimate to detonate every Sunderization stack at once. In the official Arts demo, one Bolt Rush consumed 3 stacks of Electric Infliction and produced Level 4 Electrification with 4 Sunderization stacks.

Team 3

Argent Flow	Chen Qianyu	Mi Fu	Pogranichnik

This version replaces the Endministrator with Mi Fu while keeping the Physical structure of Team 1. It is a good alternative for players who have Mi Fu available and want another way to build around Argent Flow's amplification.

Chen Qianyu stays as the main damage dealer, and Pogranichnik continues to support the SP flow. Which of Mi Fu or the Endministrator is better will likely depend on the stage and your roster.

Team Building Tips

When building around Argent Flow, prioritize teammates who can cash in his amplification window, either through strong Physical damage or through Arts damage that helps stack Infliction. Since his payoff comes after setup, a team that coordinates its rotation around Electrification and the Ultimate will generally perform better than one that simply stacks independent damage dealers.

 

Conclusion

Argent Flow already looks like the kind of operator who refuses to fight on foot when a horse is available. He triggers Vulnerability, builds Electric Infliction, forces Electrification with Bolt Rush, stacks Sunderization, and then detonates it with a lance strike from Nuli's back. If nothing else, the front line is having a very bad day.

For now, the confirmed Argent Flow information mainly covers his core combat mechanics. His Base Talents, Potential recommendations, exact skill values, and final gear pieces still need more information. Once Version 1.6 releases, these sections can be expanded with more detailed build recommendations.
