Arknights: Endfield Adds Xai And Minho Operators In Tansei Watari Update
The update widens Endfield's roster toward unconventional tactics while attaching permanent content, animal rearing, and farming automation to an inn-management event, a sign Hypergryph is building out the game's non-combat loop alongside its combat events.
Reporting from 1 source: Automaton.
Hypergryph and GRYPHLINE detailed the Arknights: Endfield update Tansei Watari. Two operators join: Xai, a Support/Cold unit who amplifies damage and creates an attack-target duplicate called Ink Soul, and Minho, a Vanguard/Electric unit who charges on a mount named Nuri. The update adds a new area, Xai's Painting, plus the inn-management event Mortal Bonds and the combat event Hundred Delights Martial Exercise.
Xai and Minho arrive with distinct roles. Xai, a Support/Cold operator, amplifies Cold and Heat, reduces combo-skill cooldowns, and can inflict an action-stopped status while dealing damage through combo and ultimate skills. A duplicate called Ink Soul becomes a separate attack target, letting players strike the copy to damage a main body elsewhere. Minho, a Vanguard/Electric operator, contributes to physical compositions through Crush and rides the mount Nuri in an ultimate that impales and gathers multiple enemies.
The new area, Xai's Painting, is a special space inside a painting where a paintbrush repairs broken bridges and enemies are fantastical ink-drawn beings.
