Operators Comparison Table

Every row in the table is a single playable operator pulled from Arknights: Endfield's CharacterTable data file — the same source the game uses internally — so the level-max stats here mirror what you see on the in-game character sheet before weapons, gear, and buff consumables stack on top. Sorting any column reorders the table in place; filtering by rarity, class, or damage element narrows the pool without losing the active sort. Last refresh date is shown in the header; we re-publish on every patch and after any rebalance.

The table covers stats most relevant to roster planning and team-building: core attributes, raw HP and ATK, two effective-HP variants that factor in resistance, ATK pre- and post-equipment, attack range in metres, and the two rare-resource columns that gate promotions. Click an operator's name to drill in (in a future release), or cross-reference the names here with the team tier list and build pages to see how each unit fits into the current meta.

Core attribute system (STR / AGI / INT / WIL)

• STR (Strength) — scales physical ATK and stagger output. High-STR operators (Wulfgard, Ember, Chen) deal most of their damage through basic attacks and physical skill multipliers.
• AGI (Agility) — affects movement, evasion, attack speed, and crit-related substats. Ranged DPS like Yvonne and Pogranichnik benefit most.
• INT (Intelligence) — scales Arts damage and elemental skill output. Casters such as Perlica and Arclight read primarily off INT for their burst rotations.
• WIL (Willpower) — governs ult charge rate, status resistance, and healing throughput. Dedicated medics and SP-batteries lean heavily on WIL.

Why effective HP matters more than raw HP

The Eff. PHY HP and Eff. Arts HP columns roll DEF and Arts Resist into the raw HP pool, giving you the actual amount of physical or Arts damage an operator can absorb before going down. Two operators with the same HP can have wildly different effective HP depending on their DEF and Arts Resist scaling — some 5★ operators out-tank 6★ counterparts on physical fights thanks to better DEF curves. Sort Eff. PHY HP descending when planning runs against physical-heavy bosses such as the Cinder Arsenal Bonecrusher Vanguard; sort Eff. Arts HP descending for Arts-dominant phases like Etchspace Salvage waves.

Damage elements and matchup logic

Each operator has one fixed damage element — Physical, Heat, Electric, Cryo, Nature, or Aether — that determines which resistance column on the enemy's stat block their hits land against. Element is a property of the operator, not of the weapon; equipping a fire-themed weapon on a Cryo operator does not change their damage type. The largest single damage swing in Endfield combat comes from element matchups: hitting a vulnerable enemy (resistance multiplier above 1.00) can mean 15–30% more damage versus a neutral or resisted matchup. Cross-reference operator element against the resistance columns in the enemies database before locking in a team for a specific fight.

Rare Material and Rare Plant — the promotion gates

Each operator's E2 and E4 promotions require their signature Rare Material (boss-drop or elite-drop item) and Rare Plant (named flora or ore node). These two columns surface the specific resources you need to plan before committing to promotion. Rare Materials drop on a fixed rotation from specific Elite and Boss enemies in story chapters and weekly Joint Operations; Rare Plants are gathered from named nodes in the open world or grown on infinite loops in the Growth Chamber. Before pulling the trigger on an E4 commitment, scan this column and verify your farming pipeline can sustain the cost.
