Arknights Endfield Social Features Guide – Friends, Chat, and Block Functions

Arknights: Endfield’s social features are light but useful: you can add friends by UID, accept requests, and curate your experience with mute/block/report tools where your platform supports them. Most real chat still happens in external communities like Discord and Reddit.​

Friends System

  • Unlocking friends:
    • You need to reach early-game progress (around level 2 / Valley Reboot completion) before the Friends menu becomes available.
  • How to add friends:
    • On the main screen, open the Menu → Friends button (top-right on mobile/PC).​​
    • Go to the Add Friends section and search by UID or in‑game name.
    • Send a request; once accepted, they appear on your Friends list.​
  • How to share your UID:
    • Open your Profile (bottom-left portrait) and copy your UID with the file/copy icon next to it, then paste it to your friend.

Friends mainly serve for social connection and event objectives (e.g., “send 1 friend request” missions).​​

In-Game Chat and Where People Actually Talk

  • In-game chat:
    • At launch, Endfield doesn’t have a deep global chat lobby; discussion is limited and not the main way players communicate.​
  • External communities:
    • Most players use the official Discord, the r/Endfield subreddit, and dedicated /vg/ generals for real-time chat, help, and team discussion.

If you want active strategy talk or LFG, plan to use Discord/Reddit rather than relying on in‑client chat.

Block, Mute, and Report Functions

Endfield itself offers only basic friend management; more granular mute/block options depend on your platform.

  • In-game basics:
    • You can remove or ignore friend requests from the Friends menu if you don’t want to connect with someone.
  • Platform-level controls:
    • On PS5, you can mute, block, or report players at the system level via Game Base and party/chat menus; blocking stops messages and party invites from that player.​
    • On PC (Steam/launcher) and mobile, you can similarly block or mute users through platform friends/voice/chat tools, even if Endfield’s own block list is limited.

If someone is harassing you via voice chat or platform messages, use platform block/report first, since that’s currently more robust than in-game tools.​​

Practical Tips for a Better Social Experience

  • Add only people you trust or communities you recognize (Discord servers, subreddit megathreads).
  • Check the Friend Request tab regularly so you don’t hit limits on pending requests.​
  • If you ever feel uncomfortable with a player, remove them from your friends list and block at the platform level so they can’t follow you via chat or parties.​​

Used this way, Endfield’s social tools give you enough to connect with friends and community players while relying on Discord/Reddit and platform-level block/mute to handle the heavier social side.
