Securing a limited character in Arknights: Endfield requires careful management of pull currency. Here you’ll find every major method to earn Oroberyl, the conversion options for duplicate operators, and the steps that maximize your resources as a free-to-play player. This guide focuses on speed — how to claim pulls fast enough for a guarantee — and longer-term paths like open-world farming, factory optimization, and shop exchanges.
Quick answer
| What | Answer |
|---|---|
| Best first purchase | Battle Pass |
| Daily operator manual reward | 200 Oroberyl |
| Node reward per completion | 750 Oroberyl |
| Training reward | 20 Oroberyl each |
| Character training reward | 20 Oroberyl each |
| Duplicate conversion | 50 bond quotas for a six-star, 10 for a five-star |
| Open-world turn-in reward | Originium and character exp |
| Bomb material estimate | 200 to 300 bombs |
Buy the battle pass before converting premium currency
The Battle Pass is the first and most crucial purchase when aiming for maximum pull currency efficiency. The second-tier battle pass requires Origies as payment but refunds more than the cost via rewards, including extra Origeometry and other items. Buying it before converting Origies to premium pull currency completes the refund loop and ensures you can repurchase in the next cycle as a free-to-play player. After you secure the battle pass, it’s safe to spend your remaining currency on banner pulls.
Clear operator manual rewards first
The Operational Manual menu is the most dependable recurring source of pulls. Each day, you can earn 200 Oroberyl by completing daily tasks, and every node cleared pays 750 Oroberyl per completion. Node rewards also grant Operational EXP, which increases your Authority Level — every level-up gives more Oroberyl and other bonuses. Completing nodes and daily tasks is vital for early resource accumulation and fast progression toward your first guarantee.
Use training, character training, simulations, and events for extra pulls
Many one-time and event-based sources are easily missed but add up to a large number of pulls. Training missions and Character Training reward 20 Oroberyl for each completion. Simulations are major sources of operator EXP, which ties into Authority Level for more currency. The Event Tab in-game includes login rewards, event guides, trial rewards, and combat drills — many paying out pulls or resources during their limited period. Sweep these sources early for extra currency that can tip the balance in tight banner windows.
Turn quests and regional development into more currency
Completing quests grants Oroberyl, character EXP, and character materials, rewarding both resource spend and map progression. As you expand your AIC Factories and advance the story, you unlock regional development milestones. Each milestone pays out standard banner pulls and additional Oroberyl, making factory setup an important part of long-term farming. Focus on quest completion and regional upgrades both for immediate pulls and sustainable progress.
Convert duplicates into the right shop currencies
Operator duplicates are a main route to extra pull currency. Once a character is maxed out, further duplicates transform into shop currencies for conversion.
| Source | Currency Generated | Usage | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Maxed operator duplicate | AIC quota | Exchange for current-banner headhunting permits | Four-star dupes convert quickly, surplus stock is common |
| Duplicate six-star | Bond quota x50 | Converts to pull currency in shop | Used for current banners |
| Duplicate five-star | Bond quota x10 | Same as above | Lower payout but accumulates with standard pulls |
Bond quotas can be spent directly on pull currency. AIC quotas allow direct exchange for headhunting permits (current-banner pulls), but are best reserved for times when the shop refreshes.
Spend standard banner pulls for more long-term currency
Standard banner pulls are more than just a route to immediate characters: they’re the main method for generating further duplicates that create bond quota and AIC quota, enabling currency snowballing. You can buy additional standard banner pulls in the stock exchange shop (sometimes appearing as Elastic Goods). Reselling items via your terminal, especially at friend prices, dramatically increases the sale value. Using a friend's ship for redistribution with the best prices converts factory goods into extra stock bills, used to buy more pulls.
Farm the open world for the largest currency pool
Open world exploration is the biggest overall source of pull currency and materials. Collect floating white blobs visible on the map — turn them in at port locations for Originium and character EXP. The region Wuling provides the same resources. Explodable objects block access to chests and new sections; you’ll need to craft bombs to bypass these obstacles. The typical bomb requirement for clearing the open world sits between 200 and 300.
Build the factory inputs that keep the map unlocked
To maintain open world progress and access blocked zones, optimize your factory chains for bomb production and relay networks for power distribution. Bombs are crafted from Aketine and Amethyst Ore ore. Aketine is produced using one seed unit and two planting units, with the seed unit splitting output evenly between the two plantings; a second planter is not strictly required if the output is divided efficiently. Relay towers extend power from your base to remote nexus zones — each relay must be linked into a connected chain to power up distant devices and unlock chests.
Check the credit shop and daily stock routes
The Credit Shop sometimes offers Oroberyl and pull currency — availability varies, with day one and day three confirmed to display these rewards. Credits for shop purchases are earned from activities like visiting ships or assisting with nexus upgrades. The stock exchange is another repeatable shop route, especially if you resell goods through a friend's terminal for maximum stock bill returns.
Also worth knowing
- Time is the true bottleneck: Earning the full quota of pulls is possible, but requires substantial gameplay hours and active engagement with all content types. For many, real-world time will gate progress more than currency totals.
- Stock redistribution shortcut: You can open the stock redistribution terminal directly by clicking a friend's icon in Elastic Goods. There's no need to menu through the friends list — this shortcut saves time and steps.
- Optimizing Aketine production: It’s possible to skip the second planting unit — the planting unit automatically divides outputs evenly. This makes factory layouts more efficient and simpler to build.
- AIC quota claim is easy to miss: Be sure to claim the AIC quota currency from the shop after maxing operator duplicates. This additional resource feeds more pulls than simply accumulating token stock.
- Unlock timing for Elastic Goods and some factory materials is unclear: The guide does not specify exactly when Elastic Goods or certain material sources unlock. Progress in story and factory expansion is presumed but not detailed.

Frequently asked
What is the fastest way to get Oroberyl?
Node rewards are the fastest source mentioned. Regional development and open-world exploration give larger totals overall, but the node rewards deliver currency more quickly because they pay out directly with each completion.
Should I spend duplicate currency on pulls or on the marker currency?
Spend it on pulls first if the goal is a limited character. More pulls create more duplicates over time, which then create more bond quotas and AIC quotas later, so the pull route snowballs better for free-to-play progression.
Do I need to farm the open world to reach 120 pulls?
Yes, the open world is a major source of currency, but it is not the only one. Quests, simulations, training, regional development, events, and shop exchanges all add up alongside it.
