Liquid Heavy Xiranite — Quick Blight Clearing Blueprint
A compact 13x22 Liquid Heavy Xiranite blueprint designed to clear Blight quickly in Arknights: Endfield. Drop-in BP for fast Blight purification runs — no resource juggling, no manual reroutes.
Best for: Players hitting Blight zones who need a ready-made Liquid Heavy Xiranite production layout without designing one from scratch.
Why this BP: Most Liquid Heavy Xiranite layouts shared online are oversized or assume specific terrain. This one is small enough to fit in any sub-PAC and produces enough Liquid Heavy Xiranite to clear Blight on contact.
ASIA code only.
Liquid Xiranite — 7x19 Compact Blueprint (NA/EU)
Two compact 7x19 Liquid Xiranite blueprints for NA/EU servers. Both layouts share the same footprint — pick the one that matches your depot setup.
Setup: Add Precipitation Acid to the crucible. Conduits help!
V1 — 2 Depots + P Stash: P Stash will need external power not included in the blueprint (the original was powered by nearby facilities).
V2 — 3 Depots: Self-contained variant if you'd rather drop the P Stash for an extra Depot.

Buckwheat Capsule A Blueprint
HC Valley Battery Blueprint
Symmetric Valley V4
Mega factory layout combining Capsule A + Battery HC
Note: No external planter needed
Setup: Add one Electric Pylon in the corner
All 4 parts required - combine for full production setup
Hetonite Parts V2.2
Compact 26x21 Hetonite Parts production from unrefined ore to finished product
Features:
- Handles all waste products (sewage)
- Runs continuously at full throughput
- Self-sustaining acid production
- Space-efficient crucible routing
Startup: Draw pipe from center-top acid to rightmost converger to jumpstart acid production

Hetonite Parts 16.5/min Flow Limiter (Splitter Setup)
Auto-regulates Hetonite Parts belt flow to exactly 16.5/min using a splitter setup.
Use Case: For setups with 22.5/min Hetonite production but only consuming 6/min — excess is 16.5/min.
The Math:
- Belt full speed = 30/min
- 16.5/min = 11/20 of full speed
- Splitter config limits output to exactly 11/20 throughput
Why: No need to manually check ore numbers daily — belt stays controlled barring minor fluctuations from server hiccups.
Note: Only works if you aren't already full on Hetonite Parts.
Hetonite + Heavy Xiranite & Xircon (Event Setup)
Hetonite Blueprint
ASIA Code:
Current (180/min Cuprium Ore):
- Pipe in 2 Acid pumps to Purification's Pipe Converger
- Pipe in 1 Acid pump to Extended Crucible's Pipe Splitter
- Belt in 1 Cuprium to the Shredder closest to Extended Crucible
Future / Max Production (240/min+):
- Pipe in 1 Acid pump to Purification's Pipe Converger
- Pipe in 2 Acid pumps to Extended Crucible's Pipe Splitter
- Belt in 3 Cuprium to all 3 Shredders
Belt out Hetonite from Extended Crucible into a Depot Loader along the Depot Bus, directly to sub-PAC, or replace Water Treatment Unit with a Protocol Stash.
You'll still need 4 Cuprium refineries elsewhere for Hetonite production.
Heavy Xiranite & Xircon Blueprint
- Align Purification to the corner end outside of AIC area (see 3rd photo above)
- Manifold needs 2 Water pumps
- Due to terrain: place a Conduit Inlet with Pipe Converger for Inert Xircon Effluent, then connect to Conduit Outlet to Purification
This blueprint is fully self-sufficient — unloads Ores directly rather than processed products.
Tips
- If already using the old Hetonite blueprint, shift Depot Unloaders 1 tile upward
- Align the Depot Bus to fit the whole setup
- There's plenty of space available for Event Setup additions
7-Line Xiranite Production (210/min)
7 self-sufficient Xiranite production lines at 210/min output. Near-symmetrical layout with only 8 asymmetrically placed facilities.
Key Space-Saving Tricks:
- Chain-linked Jincao/Yazhen planter/seed-picker groups (2-unit recursive loop)
- Corner design: 1 refiner feeding 2 grinders via carbon powder
- Cross-line forge feeding with stabilizing carbon
Water Split:
- North conduit: 2.5 water pumps
- Southwest conduit: 2 pumps
- Southeast conduit: 1 pump
- Central conduit: 1.5 pumps
Setup Notes:
- Requires 7 forges
- Move AIC away before placing (dense placement)
- 3 separate blueprints for EU/NA
- 4 separate blueprints for ASIA

Valley IV Megabase — Best Endgame Base
Optimized for money, power, and space. Runs at the lowest possible power of 4250 (factory+mining nodes), producing max value of 2780 stock bills/min worth of goods. Fits in just Core + 1 SubPac, leaving 2 SubPacs free.
Produces per minute:
- 18 Buck Capsule A
- 18 HC Battery
- 120 Amethyst Bottle
- 20 Origocrust
With SubPac 2 add-on: 30 Amethyst bottles, 18 Buck C, 30 Buckflower powder (depot quests), filling in 44h instead of 11h.
Requirements: Full upgrades in Core AIC and one SubPac. Rest can be unupgraded.
Parts Required + Recommended SubPac 2:
Placing Guide:
- Gather 250 Buckflower, 500 Sandleaf, 400 HC Battery
- Main PAC: orient depots to top and left. Place 6 pieces starting from top left.
- Fill plants into seed pickers (every seed picker that needs filling has an item control port showing sandleaf or buckflower)
- Set Core AIC outputs to 6 ferrium. Fill thermal banks with HC Battery
- SubPAC: place right, then left. Fill seed pickers and set AIC output per item control ports
- Switch off excess power thermal banks in Main PAC
