Sanity is the stamina system in Arknights: Endfield, determining how often you can participate in Protocol Spaces and other Sanity-consuming content. Efficient Sanity management is essential for steady progression, material farming, and long-term account growth.
This guide covers all available ways to recover Sanity, increase the Sanity cap, and manage Sanity efficiently on a daily basis.

What Is Sanity in Arknights: Endfield

Sanity functions as the game's energy resource. It is consumed when running Protocol Passes, Protocol Spaces, and certain time-gated activities. Once depleted, your progression slows unless you wait for regeneration or use recovery options.
How to Recover Sanity
Natural Sanity Regeneration
Sanity automatically restores over time without player input.
The regeneration speed is fixed at 1 Sanity every 7 minutes and 12 seconds. This process continues until your current Sanity reaches its maximum limit. The system does not support overcapping, meaning any excess regeneration is lost once the cap is reached.
For efficiency, players should avoid letting Sanity sit at maximum for extended periods.
Using Sanity Recovery Items

Sanity can also be instantly restored using consumable recovery items.
Items such as Emergency Sanity Boosters provide an immediate recovery of approximately 40 Sanity per use. These items are limited in availability, so they are best saved for:
- Heavy material farming sessions
- Time-limited events
- Critical progression periods during new patches
Using them strategically yields significantly better long-term value.
Converting Origeometry into Sanity
Players have the option to exchange Origeometry for Sanity.

Exchange rate: 1 Origeometry → 40 Sanity
Origeometry can be obtained through:
- Originium Exchange
- Story mission rewards
- Operation Manual rewards
- Delivering Aurylene at TP points
- Sub-Energy Allevium sources
Because Origeometry is also used for banner pulls, this conversion should only be considered when absolutely necessary.
How to Increase Sanity Limit
The only way to raise your maximum Sanity is by increasing your Authority Level, which functions as the account level in Arknights: Endfield.
Each Authority Level increases the Sanity cap incrementally (by 5 per level). The final maximum Sanity value at higher levels has not been fully confirmed at this time.
To raise Authority Level efficiently by
- Complete daily missions
- Regularly clear Protocol Spaces
- Maintain consistent daily Sanity usage
Daily Sanity Management Tips
Sanity should always be spent as part of your daily routine. Allowing it to remain capped results in wasted regeneration, as the game currently has no stamina overflow or buffer system.
Daily Recommendations
- Prioritize Promotion and Operator EXP Protocol Spaces
- Spend all available Sanity each day
- Focus on Authority Level progression early
- Use recovery items only when timing matters
Mastering these habits allows players to optimize Sanity usage, progress faster through early content, and maximize long-term account efficiency.
Conclusion
Managing Sanity properly in Arknights: Endfield is key to leveling up without crying over wasted resources. But let’s be real—when your Sanity hits zero, nobody actually wants to stare at a timer like it’s a new hobby. Top up via LDShop and jump straight back into Protocol Spaces like Sanity was never an issue. Farming continues. Tears of frustration do not.
