Top 6-star Characters

Ardelia

6★ | Support | Nature

Ardelia is one of the strongest universal supports in Endfield, combining healing, buffing, and elemental utility in a single kit.

Her skills provide consistent Nature Arts damage while simultaneously enhancing team survivability through regeneration and damage mitigation effects. She excels in prolonged encounters where sustained output and stability matter, making her extremely valuable in high-difficulty content. Ardelia synergizes well with reaction-based teams by amplifying elemental uptime and smoothing rotation gaps. Her build typically prioritizes Arts amplification, energy regeneration, and cooldown reduction, allowing her to cycle support skills frequently.

Overall, Ardelia defines the standard for premium support units thanks to her flexibility and reliability across nearly all team compositions.

 

Laevatain

6★ | Striker | Heat

Laevatain is a top-tier Heat damage dealer built around explosive burst windows and rapid stagger generation.

Her kit focuses on converting skill activations into massive Heat Arts damage, making her a core carry for Heat-reaction teams. She excels at breaking elite enemies and bosses quickly, especially when paired with supports that boost elemental damage or reduce enemy resistances. Optimal builds emphasize Heat damage scaling, critical modifiers, and skill uptime to maximize burst potential. While she requires careful timing to fully capitalize on her cooldowns, Laevatain rewards proper execution with some of the highest damage ceilings in the game, firmly establishing her as a T0 offensive cornerstone.

 

Last Rite

6★ | Striker | Cryo

Last Rite is a premier Cryo melee DPS specializing in heavy stagger pressure and devastating close-range burst. Wielding a greatsword, she excels at controlling enemy movement while layering Cryo damage that enables powerful freeze and shatter reactions.

Her skills emphasize charged attacks and combo finishers that scale exceptionally well against high-HP targets. Build guides typically focus on Cryo damage bonus, stagger efficiency, and survivability to keep her active in frontline combat.

Last Rite performs especially well in Cryo-centric teams, where she can dominate both crowd control and single-target damage, making her one of the most oppressive melee units in Endfield’s current meta.

 

Pogranichnik

6★ | Vanguard | Physical

Pogranichnik stands out as a Physical-oriented vanguard who provides both frontline stability and powerful team utility. His defining strength lies in generating SP and applying Physical Vulnerability debuffs, which significantly boost the damage output of Physical DPS allies. He maintains solid personal damage while enabling faster skill rotations across the team. Build paths often emphasize survivability, SP generation, and debuff uptime rather than raw DPS. Pogranichnik is especially valuable in Physical compositions and mixed teams that rely on frequent skill usage. His ability to stabilize early fights and scale into late-game encounters makes him one of the most efficient and future-proof T0 units.

 

Yvonne

6★ | Caster | Cryo

Yvonne is a high-output Cryo caster focused on sustained ranged damage and freeze control.

Her kit revolves around stacking Cryo effects through rapid attacks, enabling frequent freezes and amplified damage during her ultimate. She performs best when given uninterrupted field time, as her DPS scales significantly with continuous firing. Builds usually prioritize attack speed, Cryo damage bonus, and ultimate uptime to maintain pressure. While she lacks the raw burst of some melee Cryo units, Yvonne compensates with safety, consistency, and excellent crowd control. She fits seamlessly into Cryo teams that value control and sustained damage over short burst windows.

 

Ember

6★ | Defender | Heat

Ember combines defensive utility with respectable Heat Arts damage, making her a hybrid frontline option.

Her skills allow her to absorb pressure while applying Heat effects that contribute to reaction damage. She is particularly effective in teams that need a durable unit without sacrificing elemental output. Optimal builds emphasize defense, Heat amplification, and skill uptime.

While she does not match dedicated DPS units in damage, Ember’s ability to tank and contribute offensively makes her highly efficient in mixed-role team compositions. She is a reliable pick for players seeking balance between survivability and elemental synergy.

 

Lifeng

6★ | Guard | Physical

Lifeng is a reliable Physical melee DPS with added control utility. His polearm attacks offer good reach, allowing him to pressure enemies while maintaining relative safety. His kit includes knockdown and disruption effects that enhance team survivability and crowd control. Builds generally focus on Physical damage scaling and attack consistency. While he lacks the extreme burst of top-tier carries, Lifeng’s balanced offense and utility make him dependable in many team compositions. He performs particularly well as a secondary DPS in Physical teams that value stability and control.

Top 5-star Characters

Avywenna

5★ | Striker | Electric

Avywenna is a strong Electric melee DPS designed around reaction bursts and mobility. Her skills allow her to rapidly apply Electric status and capitalize on reaction damage when enemies are properly primed. She excels in fast-paced combat scenarios where frequent skill usage and repositioning are required. Build guides typically emphasize Electric damage scaling, crit efficiency, and cooldown reduction. While her survivability is average, proper support can elevate her performance significantly. Avywenna is often considered the backbone of mid-cost Electric teams, offering high damage potential without the heavy investment required by 6★ carries.

 

Snowshine

5★ | Defender | Cryo

Snowshine is a Cryo defender focused on shielding, crowd control, and freeze application. Her abilities allow her to lock down enemies while protecting allies, making her particularly effective in defensive Cryo teams. Builds typically emphasize defense, Cryo application rate, and skill uptime. While her damage is modest, her ability to stabilize the battlefield is invaluable in challenging content. Snowshine is also accessible and efficient, making her an excellent option for players building Cryo teams without relying solely on 6★ units.

 

Wulfgard

5★ | Heat |Caster

Wulfgard is a Heat-focused operator who specializes in enabling Arts Reactions for both explosive bursts and continuous damage output. His abilities reliably inflict Heat and trigger Combustion, allowing him to exert strong area damage when reactions are executed correctly. He shines most in team compositions that can consistently support reaction setups and maintain precise timing.

 

Top 4-star Characters

Antal

4★ | Support | Electric

Despite his lower rarity, Antal earns a T0 ranking due to his unmatched Electric debuff utility. He specializes in applying Focus and Electric vulnerability effects, dramatically increasing team damage when Electric or Heat reactions are involved.

Antal’s kit emphasizes consistent debuff application, teamwide amplification, and low-cost skill cycling, making him extremely resource-efficient. His build typically prioritizes effect uptime, energy regeneration, and support scaling rather than personal damage. Antal is especially powerful in reaction-based teams, where he acts as the core enabler rather than the main DPS. His performance far exceeds expectations for a 4★ unit, cementing his place as a meta-defining support.
