Arknights Endfield Best Exploration Teams for Open World Content

Arknights Endfield Artwork 6

The best exploration teams in Arknights: Endfield are built for mobility, sustain, and low‑friction combat, not pure DPS checks. Most meta/open‑world guides recommend a 4‑slot shell of main DPS, frontliner, support/SP, and sustain, then picking an element core (Heat, Electric, Physical) that feels good to drive around with.​

What Makes a Good Exploration Team

Exploration squads need to clear mobs quickly, survive chip damage, and stay comfortable over long routes.

  • One reliable frontliner to face‑check unknown packs and elites.
  • One main DPS with good AoE or wide hitboxes for trash mobs.
  • One support/SP generator to keep skills flowing and boost movement/control.
  • One sustain slot (healer/hybrid) so you do not constantly rely on TPs and consumables.​

Element‑coherent teams (Heat, Electric, Physical) also make reactions more consistent in chaotic open‑world fights.​

Heat Exploration Team (Fast Clear & Forgiving)

Laevatain‑centric Heat comps are repeatedly recommended as premier “do‑everything” teams for early–mid exploration.​

SlotRecommended operatorsWhy they’re great for exploration
Main DPSLaevatainMassive AoE chains and forgiving play; melts random packs and elites while moving between objectives.​
FrontlineWulfgard / Snowshine / EmberFree or easy‑to‑get frontliners that hold aggro and give tempo control so you can explore safely.
Support / SPAkekuri / AntalSpread Heat/Electric inflictions, fuel Combustion/Electrification, and maintain high skill uptime.
SustainArdelia / GilbertaTop‑tier healers that also amplify Arts/elemental damage, ideal for long roaming sessions.

Endfield.gg and LDPlayer both note that the Laevatain Heat Team excels at open‑world progression and feels very comfortable moment‑to‑moment.

Electric Exploration Team (Most Resource-Efficient)

Mono‑Electric comps are praised as the most resource‑efficient and smooth for general play, perfect for F2P exploration.​

SlotRecommended operatorsWhy they’re great for exploration
Main DPSAvywennaFast‑cycling Electric skills with short downtime; ideal for constant roaming fights.
SupportPerlicaFree support that enables Mono‑Electro from day one; boosts rotations and reaction uptime.
Sub‑DPS / SPArclight / other Electro batteryEnables frequent Combos and Electrification, raising Arts damage against anything you meet.
SustainArdelia / GilbertaFills the heal/Arts‑amp role, making Electric damage punch through resistant enemies.

Both LDPlayer and Game8 describe the Avywenna Electric Team as the most resource‑friendly comp that still clears exploration content quickly.

Physical Exploration Team (Stable and Flexible)

Physical‑leaning lineups are described as the most balanced all‑rounders and work well when you lack key elemental 6★s.

SlotRecommended operatorsWhy they’re great for exploration
Main DPSEndministrator / LifengStable Physical damage and control; available early and scales well.
Frontline / SPPogranichnikFrontline Vanguard, SP battery, and Physical/Breach enabler; strong in both mobs and elites.
Sub‑DPSChen Qianyu / WulfgardExtra Physical damage and DEF shred to handle armored overworld enemies.
SustainArdeliaHeals and Corrosion support; fits into any element mix and keeps runs safe.

Physical comps are recommended by LDPlayer and Endfield.gg as “most balanced” and especially good if you move between exploration and standard combat frequently.

Quick Recommendations

  • If you have Laevatain, run a Heat team for open‑world comfort.
  • If you are mainly F2P or low‑spend, lean into Avywenna Electric + Perlica for efficient exploration.
  • If your box is Physical‑heavy, use an Endministrator/Pogranichnik shell with Ardelia for a safe, flexible roam squad.​

All three archetypes follow the same structure, frontline, main DPS, support/SP, sustain, so you can pivot between them easily as your roster grows.
