Arknight Best Farming Stages – Material Farming Efficiency Guide
This article will detail some of the most efficient farming stages in Arknights that players can utilize to maximize sanity and drop rate while discussing which items can be found within each step and ways to access them.
The Integrated Device is a new upgrade material introduced alongside Episode 6. It can be used for Operator Advanced skill upgrades, Mastery training, and Elite 2 promotion of specific operators.
1. Grindstone Stage
Arknights players looking for maximum productivity should head straight for Grindstone area’s first stage for optimal farming opportunities; its mix of low-level enemies and various spawners offer high drop rates and efficiency of sanity per time, making this stage ideal for players seeking maximum return for their time investment.
Grindstone stages are specially crafted to facilitate combos, giving players plenty of opportunities to hit enemies with their attacks. Players can move in any of eight directions (left, right, up/down, and diagonally) when making combos – providing ample freedom to dodge deadly foes that want nothing other than their death! Furthermore, some stages include obstacles like crates or stones, which give some distance from those they’re fighting off and offer needed respite when coming under enemy fire.
Leveling up your Operators is critical to moving through the game. This can be accomplished through missions, Event Operations, and Challenges to fill their EXP bar and unlock upgrades – as well as earning materials and LMD to upgrade them further.
When selecting missions to undertake, those with the highest return in LMD per Sanity expended must be prioritized. The more complex a task is, the greater its reward in LMD upon completion; LMD serves many functions throughout the game, from leveling up operators and promoting them to unlocking unique skill sets and purchasing upgrades.
With Arknights’s latest story chapter launch comes an array of unique event campaigns that players should take advantage of. Some events allow them to gain two new rate-up characters: 6* Defender Horn and 4* Medic Chestnut. Players should consult the event calendar to increase their chances of securing these valuable rewards and plan their strategy for efficiently upgrading these new Operators; each requires its own set of resources to upgrade.
2. Trust Stage
Arknights Trust Stages provides players with one of the game’s most valuable resources – Originite Rocks. These rocks can then unlock the first stage of Arknights’ new equipment system, the Integrated Device. The Integrated Device allows them to upgrade their characters with new skills and stat caps that help strengthen them for combat missions while progressing the storyline; plus, it increases weapon damage according to gear level!
These stages can be found between levels 5-10 of every Operation, making them accessible by players of any character level. While not ideal for grinding due to requiring considerable Sanity, these stages offer the best chances at collecting Originite Rocks and unlocking special items such as Grindstone – an effective weapon explicitly designed for combat characters.
Trust Stage offers an exceptional chance of dropping Rare Materials that can be used to upgrade weapons and increase overall power for Operators. A Material’s rarity can be determined by its border color: gray borders indicate Tier-1 abnormality; yellow and blue ones Tier-2 rarity; pink indicates Tier-3 rarity, and so forth – with each Material becoming increasingly rare as its price increases at the Store.
Trust Stage is an ideal location to collect Loxic Kohl and Grindstone materials required for upgrading various operators in-game, such as 6* Defender Horn and 4* Medic Chestnut. Furthermore, these rare materials have proven essential during Grani and Knights’ Treasure, an ongoing event that simplifies harvesting as its drop rate has increased considerably.
3. Ester Stage
The Ester Stage in Arknights is one of the top farming stages due to its low sanity costs and high drop rate, making it an excellent way to level up operators and gain access to higher-tier abilities quickly. Furthermore, its Originite Rock resources make this an invaluable source for upgrading Operators or unlocking new perks.
The Grindstone Stage is another excellent choice for farmers seeking to level up their operators quickly. Offering an outstanding sanity/drop rate and being relatively straightforward to clear, this stage provides good returns upon completing it – with no reward if removed successfully.
Although its flaws exist, Grindstone Stage remains an effective means to farm Loxic Kohl and Trust; therefore, it remains one of the most popular farming options in the game.
With the launch of chapter 10, Arknights is holding an exciting special event called ‘Under Tides,’ which offers players new story and challenge stages, event exclusive drops for limited times only, and more. This is an excellent opportunity for players to level up their operators quickly while making quick strides through their main story arcs.
Under Tides Event offers not only new stages but also revisits some of its most beloved previous events, like Obsidian Festival, which provides event missions rewarding tokens, obsidian tickets, and other valuable items – running from October 21 – November 4 and giving players an excellent opportunity to make extra cash!
The Under Tides Event provides players an ideal opportunity to level up their Operators while making extra money. Players should focus on grinding Grindstone and Ester Stages until reaching decent levels before progressing to Sugar and Aerial Threat Stages for maximum returns and reaching higher levels in the game, by unlocking powerful perks and reaching success more efficiently than ever before.
4. Sugar Stage
Sugar Stage is one of the premier locations for farming fusion materials. With its increased chance of dropping items that may otherwise be difficult to obtain on lower tiers, Sugar can provide all your needed ingredients for upgrading equipment quickly and efficiently. Furthermore, Under Tides uses Sugar as an event organizer!
At the core of any candy creation is heating syrup to a specific temperature. There are eight distinct temperatures for cooking sugar, each offering unique characteristics and properties. A candy thermometer should always be used when creating candy, as its temperature will depend on its intended use.
Sugar at the soft crack stage (270-290 degrees Fahrenheit) is used for candy such as taffy and butterscotch, thanks to its low moisture content and ability to form threads that bend slightly before breaking apart when dropped into cold water. Additionally, this stage can be used in nougats, marshmallows, gummies, rock candy, divinity, etc.
At 245-250 degrees Fahrenheit, sugar hardens into its final state for caramel candies. At this stage, it forms a firm ball that can be flattened easily between your fingers to make caramel candies. It also becomes suitable for making fudge, pralines, and Italian meringue at this stage.
To maximize your Arknights experience, you must know which stages offer the highest-quality fusion materials for equipment farming. A mnemonic device may help remind you which steps you must clear faster and more efficiently; otherwise, consider LDPlayer’s keyboard-mapping function, which allows you to play using only keyboard buttons instead of relying on smartphones or tablets – saving time and energy!
