OPERATOR BUILDS

Best weapons, gear sets & team compositions for every operator

26 Operators Community Sourced DPS Ranked

About these builds

Each operator card combines four community-curated build artifacts: the top-5 weapon list ranked by simulated DPS, the recommended team compositions where this operator performs best, the gear configurations (with potential and teammate context where it matters), and quick links to the full character detail page. Builds are aggregated from active community theory-crafters and refreshed on each major patch.

Use this page when picking a weapon to invest essence into, or when wondering which gear set to farm next. The DPS percentages are relative to the operator's top weapon (100%), simulated against a standardized late-game enemy. Use the filters to narrow by class, damage type, or rarity, and click any operator name to drill into stats, talents, and full skill multipliers. For ground-up understanding of why these builds work, pair this with the Damage Calculator.

How the build rankings are produced

Every operator card on this page contains a ranked build list: best weapon, alternate weapons, recommended gear pieces, and one or more team compositions. The rankings are not editorial picks — they come out of a DPS simulator that scripts each operator's full rotation against a standard endgame combat scenario (boss damage profile, sustained rotation length, average buff uptime, average ult cycle). The simulator runs every legal weapon-gear-team permutation, then ranks the results by total damage dealt over the scenario window.

Because the simulation models the full fight — including weapon skill passives, gear-set bonuses, team synergy buffs, and ult timing — these rankings capture effects that pure stat-alignment tools cannot. The weapon recommender tells you which weapons have the best substat match for an operator; this page tells you which weapon actually deals the most damage when you account for skill effects. The two answers can and do differ, and where they differ, the builds page is usually right.

What goes into a "build" entry

  • Weapon — the simulator's top-ranked weapon by simulated full-fight DPS. Alternates listed below are within a small DPS percentage of the top pick and are shown so you have a backup if the top weapon is unavailable.
  • Gear set — the recommended four-piece or two-piece-plus-two-piece combination. Set bonuses are evaluated against the operator's role, and the simulator picks the set with the highest net contribution to the rotation.
  • Substat priority — the ordered list of gear substats that the simulator weighted highest for this operator. Use this when farming gear: you want pieces whose rolls land on the top of the priority list, not pieces with the highest raw numbers.
  • Team comp — the team configuration the simulator paired the operator with for the ranking. Different team comps produce different optimal weapons, so the team listed here is the one assumed for this build's numbers.

Where the team composition logic comes from

Recommended teams are built around two questions: which operators in your roster supply the buffs this DPS operator scales best off, and which operators cover the survivability or sustain gap this DPS leaves open. A high-burst DPS like Zhuang Fangyi is usually slotted with an SP-battery support (Perlica) and a healer or shielder to enable the burst window; a sustained DPS like Rossi is slotted with damage amplifiers and crowd control. The dropdown of alternate team configurations lets you swap in operators you actually own — the simulator re-runs against your selection and re-ranks the weapon list accordingly.

Data freshness and patch coverage

The build dataset is regenerated on every major patch and after any rebalance that touches the involved operators, weapons, or gear sets. The "last updated" timestamp at the top of the page reflects the most recent regeneration. New operators are added once their skill multipliers, scaling coefficients, and rotation timings are confirmed from the live client — usually within a week of release. If an operator you expect to see is missing, they are either too new to have stable data, or excluded because their kit relies on mechanics the simulator does not yet model (uncommon, but it happens).

When to override the recommendation: the simulator assumes endgame combat against named bosses. For early-progression players still in story mode, almost any reasonable build clears, and you should prioritise the gear you can actually farm over the gear the simulator wants. For weekly Joint Operations and Cinder Arsenal, the recommended build is what you should aim for.

Frequently Asked Questions

How are the DPS percentages calculated for each weapon?

The DPS percentages reflect each weapon's relative performance compared to the top option for that specific operator, simulated against a standardized late-game enemy profile. The community calculation pipeline runs the operator's full skill rotation (basic attacks, skill, ultimate cadence) with each weapon and normalizes the output so the best weapon shows as 100% and alternatives show as the percentage shortfall. A weapon at 92% means roughly 8% less total damage over a representative fight — close enough that potential and refinement level can flip the order.

What is 'potential' in the gear configurations?

Potential is Arknights: Endfield's name for the duplicate-copy progression system — pulling the same operator multiple times unlocks Potential levels (P1 through P5) that improve talents and skill multipliers. Gear configurations are sometimes potential-locked because higher potentials change which stat priorities matter. For example, a P0 build may favor flat ATK while a P3 build can lean into Crit because a P3 talent grants extra Crit Rate. Always match the build to your actual potential, not the highest one shown.

Should I follow the listed team compositions exactly?

Treat them as starting points, not requirements. The team comps shown are the highest-performing community-tested rosters at the time of data refresh, but they assume you own every featured operator. For an account that is missing a team member, the build is still valid — substitute the closest archetype (same class, similar damage type, similar buff profile) and you usually lose less than 15% performance. The gear and weapon picks are far less substitutable; those are tightly coupled to the operator's stat priorities.

How fresh is the build data?

Builds are sourced from active community theory-crafters and refreshed whenever a major patch lands or a new operator banner releases. Some operators have multiple gear configs covering different roles (sub-DPS vs main DPS, sustain vs burst) — that means the community is still settling on a single 'correct' answer, and you should pick the config matching your team. Operators with only one config are the well-solved ones. If a config looks outdated against a recent patch, check the operator detail page for the most recent revision notes.

Why is my favorite operator missing from this list?

The roster covers operators that have published community builds at the time of the last refresh — usually all 6-stars and most 5-stars. 4-stars and very new operators (within their first 1–2 weeks of release) may not appear yet, because builds need real DPS-test data to be ranked. If an operator is missing, check the in-game class and damage type, then look for the closest existing operator with the same archetype — the weapon picks usually transfer well as a starting point.
