Arknights: Endfield Version 1.1 Banner Overview
Version 1.1 went live on March 12, 2026, with banners split into two phases. Phase 1 features Tangtang (March 12 – March 29), while Phase 2 features Rossi (March 29 – April 14).
Tangtang is a 6★ Cryo Caster with a ranged playstyle, while Rossi is a 6★ Physical Guard and currently the only character in the game capable of converting Arts Infliction on enemies into Arts Vulnerability.
The Budding Anew Issue, Graffiti Issue, and Express Delivery Issue weapon banners are also available during this version. Want to know more about Version 1.1? Check out our Arknights: Endfield 1.1 developer livestream recap.
Arknights: Endfield Current Banners
The featured banner for Version 1.1 is "River's Daughter", running from March 12 to March 29, 2026. The new 6★ character is Tangtang, a Cryo Caster who builds her kit around waterspout and vortex cycles.
River's Daughter (Mar. 12 – Mar. 29)
| Character | Rarity | Element | Weapon | Role |
Tangtang New | ★★★★★★ | Cryo | ||
Yvonne Rerun | ★★★★★★ | Cryo | ||
Gilberta Rerun | ★★★★★★ | Nature |
In Arknights: Endfield's limited banners, your hard pity progress carries over across banners at 80 pulls — however, this only guarantees a 6★ character, not the featured one.
To guarantee Tangtang specifically, you'll need to reach 120 pulls within the same banner. This guarantee resets when the banner ends and does not carry over to the next one.
Additionally, featured characters from previous banners (such as Gilberta and Yvonne) may still appear in the current banner, but at the same rates as standard characters — they do not receive any rate-up bonus.
Arknights: Endfield New Character Review: Tangtang
Tangtang is the featured operator for Version 1.1 Phase 1 — a 6★ Cryo Caster available from March 12 to March 29, 2026.
Skill Overview
Tangtang's core mechanic revolves around generating and consuming Whirlpools. Her combat skill, Ima Waveridaah!, triggers Arts Susceptibility when consuming Whirlpools, boosting the team's overall damage against the target while refunding SP.
Her chain skill, River, To Me!, rapidly stacks Cryo Infliction to set up combat skill activations. Her ultimate, Da Chief Sees You!, deals heavy damage while also providing protection to teammates during its cast.
Recommended Gear
Weapons
Weapon choice has a significant impact on Tangtang's damage output. Her signature weapon, Brigand's Calling, is the top pick — it not only boosts her personal damage but also applies Arts DMG Taken% to enemies, a rare and powerful multiplier in the current game.
| Weapon | Tier | Team DMG% | Personal DMG% |
| Brigand's Calling (P5) | 114.10% | 123.88% | |
| Brigand's Calling (P0) | 100% | 100% | |
| Home Longing | 84.2–87.6% | 74.8–82.2% | |
| Wedge | 80–82.5% | 65.5–71.1% |
If you don't have her signature weapon, both Home Longing and Wedge are solid free alternatives that cover most combat scenarios.
Sets
For equipment, the full Bonekrusha set is recommended to maximize Bonekrusha stack gains in line with her skill rotation. The glove slot can be swapped to LYNX Gloves for specific rotations that benefit from Ultimate Gain Efficiency%, though MI Security Gloves generally offer higher damage potential otherwise.
Recommended Teams
Tangtang is flexible enough to fit both as a sub-DPS and a main carry. The following are some of the most well-tested team compositions — mix and match based on the characters you have.
- Last Rite + Xaihi + Perlica + Tangtang — The current best team. Xaihi amplifies damage for both Last Rite and Tangtang, while Perlica provides an additional source of Cryo Infliction.
- Yvonne + Xaihi + Gilberta + Tangtang — Gilberta handles Cryo Infliction and crowd control, making this a great option if you don't have Perlica.
- Tangtang + Xaihi + Alesh + Gilberta — A Tangtang main carry setup where Alesh consumes Cryo Infliction and generates SP for the team.
Regardless of which team you run, Xaihi is currently near-irreplaceable as a core member — prioritize including her whenever possible.
Is Tangtang Worth Pulling?
Yes. Tangtang is among the stronger units in the current meta. Her Arts Susceptibility buff not only enhances her own damage but also meaningfully boosts team-wide output, giving her a place in multiple top-tier compositions.
Even without her signature weapon, the free alternatives keep her competitive. If your roster lacks Cryo DPS or Cryo Infliction stacking, Tangtang is well worth prioritizing in Version 1.1.

Arknights: Endfield Current Weapon Banner
The weapon banner for Version 1.1 is Budding Anew Issue, with Brigand's Calling as the featured 6★ weapon. Additional 6★ weapons include Sundered Prince, Thermite Cutter, Wedge, Chivalric Virtues, JET, and Clannibal, along with various 5★ weapons.
★ Featured
Sundered Prince ★★★★★★
Thermite Cutter ★★★★★★
Wedge ★★★★★★
Chivalric Virtues ★★★★★★
JET ★★★★★★
Clannibal ★★★★★★The Budding Anew Issue banner was introduced alongside Tangtang's signature weapon, Brigand's Calling. The banner opens on March 12, 2026, and remains available until the end of the three Headhunting banners that follow Tangtang's banner.
To guarantee Brigand's Calling, you need to accumulate 80 pulls. Note that this hard pity can only trigger once — if you obtain Brigand's Calling at or before 80 pulls, the guarantee will not activate again.
Arknights: Endfield Currently Active Banners
The following two banners were introduced in Arknights: Endfield Version 1.0 and remain active as of Version 1.1.
- Graffiti Issue — Features Artzy Tyrannical, the signature weapon for Yvonne. This banner went live on February 24, 2026, and will close after three Franchise Headhunting banners end, counting from the "Hues of Passion" banner.
- Express Delivery Issue — Features Delivery Guaranteed, the signature weapon for Gilberta. This banner launched on February 7, 2026, and will close after three Franchise Headhunting banners end, counting from the "Floaty Messenger" banner.
These banners are still available — if either weapon is on your wishlist, make sure to allocate your resources before they go offline. Specific end dates are subject to in-game banner timers.
Arknights: Endfield Upcoming Banners
The next set of banners will arrive with Version 1.1 Phase 2, featuring Rossi's character banner "Wolf Pearl" and the weapon banner "Scarlet Pearl Issue".
Rossi's "Wolf Pearl" Banner
Rossi's banner, Wolf Pearl, will be live from March 29 to April 14, 2026 (GMT+8). During this period, Rossi will appear as the rate-up character in the banner.
Character Overview
Rossi is a 6★ Physical Guard designed as a versatile single-target carry. She deals both Physical and Heat damage, handling armor shred, damage output, and stack application all on her own — making her especially well-suited for teams that mix Physical and Arts damage.
Combat Skill & Talents
Rossi's combat skill has two stages. The first stage launches the target into the air while applying one stack of Physical Vulnerability. If the target already has Physical Vulnerability stacks, the second stage is triggered, dealing an additional instance of Heat damage.
The second stage synergizes closely with her talents to strengthen her damage loop. Upon triggering the second stage, Talent 1 applies a persistent Bleed to the target and increases the Physical and Heat damage they take. If a critical hit was landed beforehand, Talent 2 triggers an extra hit and heals Rossi — both the damage and healing are further increased if the target is currently Burning.
Chain Skill
Rossi's chain skill activates when the target is simultaneously afflicted with Arts Infliction and Physical Vulnerability. When the condition is met, two chains can be triggered in sequence: the first deals damage, while the second consumes all Arts Infliction stacks on the target, launches them into the air, and applies an additional stack of Physical Vulnerability.
The second chain also has a timing mechanic — pressing the input at the right moment (indicated by a yellow prompt) adds one extra Vulnerability stack. Additionally, smooth combo execution can grant yet another Physical Vulnerability stack.
Ultimate
Rossi's ultimate consists of multiple instances of Heat damage, with the final hit applying one stack of Heat Infliction — providing an Arts Infliction source for subsequent chains and talent procs.
Arknights: Endfield Upcoming Banners — Version 1.2 & Beyond
Version 1.1's banner lineup is now clear, but smart resource planning means looking further ahead. Based on current story progress and official teasers, Version 1.2 is expected to center on the political landscape of the Wuling region, with two characters deeply involved in the main storyline set to join the playable roster.
The following information is based on currently available data. Exact banner dates are subject to official announcements.
Arknights: Endfield Version 1.2 Phase 1 — Zhuang Fangyi
Zhuang Fangyi serves as both the Governor of the Wuling Scientific Development Zone and the Tianshi of the Hongshan Academy of Sciences, making her one of the most prominent figures in the game world. She was also teased in silhouette during the Version 1.0 developer livestream as one of the playable characters coming in 2026.
In combat, Zhuang Fangyi is expected to be the game's first 6★ Lightning main carry, filling a role that currently has no dedicated Lightning DPS in the roster.
Based on currently leaked information, her core mechanic revolves around an Electric Field — when activated, it enhances her attacks and skills while dealing continuous damage to enemies on the field.
After her ultimate is triggered, she enters an empowered state where her attacks can chain lightning across multiple targets. Her full stats and class designation have yet to be officially confirmed.
Arknights: Endfield Version 1.2 Phase 2 — Mi Fu
Mi Fu currently appears in the game as an NPC, serving as the captain of the Wuling Guard and reporting directly to Zhuang Fangyi. She shares an ongoing rivalry with Tangtang and the Qingbo Village, making her one of the most prominent supporting characters in the Wuling main story arc.
Available information suggests Mi Fu favors a close-range fighting style, with her weapon type speculated to be unarmed or an Arts Module variant. Given her significant presence throughout Chapters 1 and 2, the community widely expects her to join the playable roster alongside Zhuang Fangyi in Version 1.2 — though this has yet to be officially confirmed.
Arknights: Endfield Standard Banner
Basic Headhunting is the game's permanent standard banner, featuring a fixed pool of five 6★ operators that can be pulled at any time using standard currency. This banner has no featured operator — hitting pity will grant a random 6★ from the standard pool. After accumulating 300 pulls on this banner, you unlock a one-time account-wide selector, so it's worth deciding on your target in advance.
The current pool contains five 6★ operators:
Ember ★★★★★★
Lifeng ★★★★★★
Ardelia ★★★★★★
Last Rite ★★★★★★
Pogranichnik ★★★★★★Arknights: Endfield Beginner Banner
New Horizons Headhunting is a one-time beginner banner where all required permits are earned for free through main story progression. The pity threshold is 40 pulls — significantly lower than the standard 80 — guaranteeing a 6★ operator upon completion.
You'll also receive a 6★ weapon selector after finishing the banner. New players should prioritize clearing this before spending any Oroberyl on limited banners. The operator pool is identical to the standard banner above.
Arknights: Endfield Gacha System Explained
Understanding the gacha mechanics is essential before committing any resources in Endfield. Character and weapon banners each run on a separate pity system with no shared progress between them — make sure you're clear on both before pulling.
Character Banner Pity
Every 10 pulls guarantees at least one 5★ operator. This counter carries over across banners and never resets.
Soft pity for 6★ operators begins at pull 65, with each subsequent pull adding an extra 5% to the 6★ rate. Hard pity hits at pull 80, guaranteeing a 6★ — though not necessarily the featured operator, at which point the 50/50 applies.
To guarantee the featured limited operator, you'll need to reach 120 pulls within the same banner. This guarantee does not carry over to other banners and resets once you obtain the featured operator. Additionally, every 60 pulls on a limited banner earns you one Headhunting Dossier, redeemable for a 10-pull on the next limited banner. It must be used when that banner goes live — it expires if unused.
Weapon Banner Pity
The weapon banner operates differently from the character banner. The odds of hitting the featured weapon are considerably lower and the pity requirements are stricter, so think carefully before spending Arsenal Tickets here.
Weapon banners use Arsenal Tickets. The base rate for a 6★ weapon is 4%, but the featured weapon only has a 25% hit rate. Pull 40 guarantees a 6★ weapon, and pull 80 guarantees the featured weapon. Weapon banner pity does not carry over across banners.
Arknights: Endfield Pulling Tips
Knowing the rules is only half the battle — how you allocate resources is what really shapes your long-term experience. The following tips apply to most players, whether you're brand new or already have some progress.
Character banners: save up before pulling, don't test your luck
Endfield's pity system is built for planned pulling, not casual sampling. If you genuinely want a character, save at least 120 pulls before going in so you can trigger the featured guarantee within the same banner. Spending resources on partial progress is rarely worth it.
Weapon banners: spend cautiously, check the shop first
Weapon banner pity resets between banners — stopping partway through means losing all your progress. If the weapon you need is available in the shop, buying it directly is far more reliable than gambling on a 25% hit rate.
Unless you have resources to spare and the signature weapon offers a significant upgrade for your target character, the weapon banner shouldn't be your first priority.
Make smart use of cross-banner pity inheritance
The 80-pull hard pity carries over between banners of the same type, but it only guarantees a 6★ — not the featured operator. Deliberately "banking" pity to use on a future banner is generally not recommended; a cleaner approach is to plan your full pull count within the banner you're targeting.
New players: complete the beginner banner first
The 40-pull pity and 6★ weapon selector from New Horizons Headhunting are among the best early-game value you'll get, and all the required permits are earned for free through the main story. New players should prioritize clearing this banner before spending any Oroberyl on limited banners.

FAQ
If I can only pull for one, should I choose Tangtang or Rossi?
It depends on your roster needs. If you're lacking Cryo DPS or area crowd control, go for Tangtang. If you need better armor shred and Physical damage amplification, Rossi is the pick. Both are strong characters with no clear winner between them.
If I miss the 1.1 banners, can I still get Tangtang or Rossi later?
They won't disappear immediately. After their limited banners end, both Tangtang and Rossi will remain in the pool as off-banner 50/50 characters for the following two limited banners. After those two cycles, they'll be removed from the pool entirely — at which point you'll need to wait for an official rerun announcement.
Is the weapon banner worth pulling on?
Proceed with caution. Weapon banner pity does not carry over between banners, and the featured weapon only has a 25% hit rate — making it a high-risk resource sink. Unless you have resources to spare, securing the character itself should come first.
How big is the gap between a signature weapon and a free alternative?
Taking Tangtang as an example, her signature weapon Brigand's Calling at max potential offers roughly 25–30% higher team damage compared to free alternatives. The gap is real, but it won't stop you from clearing most content — free weapons are more than sufficient for the majority of the game.
