Arknights: Endfield - Complete Guide to the Endministrator

As the player's avatar in the world of Talos-II and a 6-star operator granted at the start, the "Endministrator" is not only the strategic commander of Endfield Industries but also a versatile Physical Guard operator. Leveraging a unique Originium Crystal sealing mechanism and excellent physical damage output, they become the most reliable core during the pioneering phase. LDShop brings you an in-depth analysis based.

 

   

Character Overview: Core Strengths & Tactical Limitations

Advantages	Disadvantages
Unique Control Ability: The Combo Skill "Sealing Sequence" can attach "Originium Crystals" to enemies, sealing and incapacitating them, creating a safe damage window or crucial skill cooldown time for the team.	Activation Relies on Teammates: The trigger for the core Combo Skill strictly depends on other operators in the squad first using their Combo Skills to deal damage, limiting the autonomy of initiating the control chain.
Powerful Team Damage Amplification: The Talent "Reality Stasis" increases Physical Damage taken by crystallized enemies by +20%; after consuming the crystals, the Endministrator's own Attack increases, and this buff can be partially shared with the entire team through Potential.	Survival Pressure: As a character requiring close-quarters combat, survivability is tested when facing high-damage ranged or area-of-effect enemies, necessitating pairing with healing or shield protection.
Efficient Skill Cycle: The Battle Skill "Constructive Sequence," when consuming Originium Crystals, can refund a large amount of Skill Points through Potential, enabling rapid skill turnover and continuous control or damage.	High Damage Window Requirement: Maximum burst damage requires precise skill chaining (e.g., the Ultimate hitting a crystallized target). Improper operation can easily lead to core damage loss.
Flexible Skill Combination: The skill set covers dash, area damage, and burst Ultimate, adapting to various combat scenarios like single-target or multi-target, offering diverse tactical choices.	Function May Be Resisted: When facing elite enemies immune to control or with high-frequency status removal, the core "Seal" and "Crystal" mechanisms can be significantly less effective.

 

Skill Analysis: Combat Cycle & Talent Utilization

The Endministrator's skill design is interlocking; understanding their synergy is key to mastering them.

• Basic Attack · Destructive Sequence: Performs a rapid physical combo of up to five sequences. As the controlled operator, a charged attack deals 18 Stagger Value, an effective way to break enemy defenses.

• Battle Skill · Constructive Sequence: The core damage and control skill. Unleashes a burst of Originium energy forward in a fan-shaped area, dealing Physical DMG and applying the "Crush" effect. Crucially, hitting an enemy with attached Originium Crystals consumes them and, via the Potential "Final Awakening", refunds 50 SP, enabling skill chains.

• Ultimate · Bombardment Sequence: A high-cost burst skill (80 Energy). Bombards the ground, dealing massive Physical DMG to a large forward area. Its core mechanic: if it hits an enemy with Originium Crystals, it consumes them to deal an additional instance of Physical DMG.

• Combo Skill · Sealing Sequence: The tactical core skill. Triggered after an ally's Combo Skill deals damage. The Endministrator dashes to the target, deals damage, and attaches "Originium Crystals", sealing the enemy (preventing action). During this state, applying a "Physical Status" (e.g., Freeze) or the "Vulnerable" state consumes the crystals early for extra damage.

Key Points for Talent Application:

• Essence Disintegration: After consuming Originium Crystals, the Endministrator's Attack increases for 15 seconds. This is an important self-buff and the source for providing team-wide buffs through Potential.
• Reality Stasis: Increases all Physical Damage taken by enemies attached with Originium Crystals. This is the core of the Endministrator's support ability, providing a powerful damage amplification window for physical teams.

 

Gear & Weapon Recommendations

The Endministrator's gear selection focuses on boosting Agility, Strength, and Physical DMG.

Early-Game Transition Set: The 3-piece "Roving MSGR" set is recommended. It boosts Agility and provides a damage bonus at high HP, fitting the frontline role.

Endgame Best-in-Slot Sets:

• "Swordmancer" Set : Significantly boosts Agility & Strength and increases Physical DMG directly.

Weapon Recommendations:

• Top Choices: "Grand Vision", "Rapid Ascent", "Iron Resonance". These high-base-ATK weapons typically have strong effects boosting Physical DMG, Skill DMG, or Attack Speed.

• Transition Choices: Prioritize weapons with secondary stats like Agility, Strength, or Physical DMG Bonus.

 

Team Composition Guide

1.Physical Burst Team: Endministrator + Pogranichnik+ Li Feng + Chen Qianyu

This comp focuses on extreme physical defense break and burst.

• Endministrator: Serves as the tactical core and controller, responsible for using the Combo Skill to attach Originium Crystals to key targets, providing 20% Physical Vulnerability and team Attack buffs.
• Pogranichnik: Acts as the sub-DPS, the core of the physical team, using their skills to quickly reduce the enemy's "Break Value", triggering the "Break" state. Breaking not only consumes Originium Crystals for extra damage but also puts the enemy in a vulnerable state, greatly increasing the team's output.
• Li Feng: After the Endministrator provides vulnerability and Pogranichnik completes the break, Li Feng can unleash high-multiplier physical damage skills to deliver huge output.
• Chen Qianyu: Serves as a buff support, ensuring team survival, while their skills may provide additional Attack buffs, Attack Speed increase, or Skill Point recovery effects, optimizing the team's skill cycle.

 

2.Freeze Control Team: Endministrator + Chen Qianyu + Alesh + Estella

This comp utilizes freeze and crystal synergy for prolonged crowd control.

• Endministrator : Serves as the key to the control chain and physical damage source. The "Originium Crystals" provided by their Combo Skill can be consumed by "Physical Abnormal Status", triggering extra damage. They are also an important role for supplementing physical damage during control gaps.
• Chen Qianyu: Serves as a team support attachment, ensuring enhanced output while controlling enemies.
• Alesh and Estella: These two serve as the Ice-element skill core, able to frequently apply the "Freeze" status to enemies. Freeze, as a Physical Abnormal Status, can trigger and consume the Endministrator 's attached Originium Crystals, both causing extra damage and extending the control chain on enemies, forming a "Freeze - Crystal Consumption - Re-Freeze" loop.
