Daily operations in Arknights: Endfield aren’t just background chores-they’re the engine that fuels your progress. Mastering how missions reset, rewards stack, and resources circulate can turn a routine login into a steady stream of power and materials that shape your long-term strategy.
How to unlock dailies in Arknights: Endfield
Daily quests become available partway through the first chapter, once you clear the “Westward into the Vale” main mission and finish the short tutorial that follows, which introduces the daily task menu and rewards. After that story milestone, the game adds a Daily Tasks tab to the Operations Manual, letting you access your routine objectives from the small ID card icon next to the Headhunting button.
Dailies unlock automatically after you progress about halfway through “Chapter 1 – Process 1: Westward Into the Vale.” This is the fourth main task during that chapter, and depending on how much exploring you’re doing, you can expect it to take roughly two hours of play to reach this point.
Once you defeat the Landbreakers and restore power to the bridge, you’ll meet and recruit Wulfgard. There’s a tutorial teaching you about dailies after that point, so the unlock is impossible to miss. From this point on, you can access dailies via the Operations Manual, which is the little ID card-symbol next to the Headhunting icon on the UI (or the button that says “Operations Manual” in the main menu).
Daily missions include tasks such as:
- Log in
- Level up one Operator once
- Level up a piece of equipment once
- Level up a weapon once
- Defeat 20 enemies
- Spend 60 Sanity points
- Craft 5 times
There may be other tasks, but these are the ones we’ve seen so far. Arknights: Endfield dailies reset at 4 a.m. server time each day.
Completing dailies earns you points, and you’ll earn a range of rewards for reaching certain milestones, up to 100 daily points. These are:
- Pass XP and Operational XP
- Oroberyl
- Combat Records
- Emergency Sanity Booster
- Arms INSP set
- Photoprism
Best order to complete dailies for efficiency
For efficiency, do the dailies that (1) give the most points per action and (2) overlap naturally with what you were going to do anyway (farming, story, etc.).
Simple, fast order
-
Check your daily list first
-
Open the Daily Tasks tab, see what today actually wants (enemy kills, Sanity spend, crafting, upgrades).
-
Mentally group anything that can be cleared together (e.g., “kill 20 enemies” + “spend 60 Sanity”).
-
-
Run the main “Daily Quest” mission first
-
If there is a dedicated Daily Quest node, clear it once at the start: it usually gives a large chunk of daily points and also uses Sanity and kills enemies, progressing multiple tasks at once.
-
This immediately tells you how many points you still need to hit 100.
-
-
Do overlapping combat next
-
Run whatever stage you actually need (exp, gold, mats, or story) while watching kill / Sanity / drop-type objectives.
-
Most “defeat X enemies” or “spend X Sanity” tasks will finish naturally during this step, so you’re not doing extra runs purely for dailies.
-
-
Clear all “one-tap” base/upgrade tasks
-
Level 1 operator, 1 weapon, or 1 gear piece with cheap resources.
-
Craft/assemble one low-cost gear item if required.
-
These are instant and should be done only after you know exactly how many points you’re missing.
-
-
Clean up anything left
-
If a random task is still not done (e.g., “gather X resource on the map”), do it last so you don’t over-farm something you don’t really need.
-
Stop as soon as the daily point bar hits the cap (usually 100); ignore any low-value tasks that don’t help you reach that cap.
-
General tips
-
Try to log in early, clear the core (Daily Quest + a couple of combats) and leave only a quick base action or field gather for later in the day.
-
Treat the daily point cap as your real goal; once you’re capped, any remaining tasks are optional unless you personally need their side rewards.
What are the highest reward dailies in Arknights Endfield
The highest “reward” dailies in Endfield are the ones that (1) give the most Daily Activity Points per click and (2) unlock the big account-wide rewards like Oroberyl, Operational EXP, and credits once you hit the daily point cap.
Highest Daily Activity Point dailies
These are the standout tasks in the Operation Manual’s Daily section in terms of points per action:
-
Complete the Daily Quest once – usually 80 Daily Activity Points for a single clear.
-
Assemble/Craft Gear once – 40 Daily Activity Points just for making one low-level gear piece at your PAC’s Gear Assembly.
-
“One-tap” tasks (lower, but still efficient): level up an operator, weapon, or gear once, defeat 20 enemies, acquire 5 gatherables – typically around 20 points each.
Because the daily point cap for rewards is reached at 100 points, “Daily Quest (80) + Assemble Gear (40)” alone is already enough to fully cap the bar for the day, which is why many guides call those the best value dailies.
Best dailies by long-term value
Aside from the Operation Manual points themselves, some “daily” habits are considered top-tier because of what they give you over time:
-
World-map Ascension/Recycling runs: picking up rare ore/plant nodes that slowly respawn and looting Recycling stations; these are crucial for late-game upgrades and are hard to replace with farming.
-
Stock Market / Supply Depot delivery jobs: daily delivery quests that can give hundreds of thousands of Stock Credits, and even over 700k-1M credits per day if you consistently grab the high-value jobs and help friends’ depots.
-
Hitting 100 Daily Activity Points: this is how you secure the maximum Oroberyl, Operational EXP, and other account-wide progression rewards from the Daily system every day.
If you want the absolute “best” dailies to prioritize, focus on:
-
Daily Quest once,
-
Assemble one piece of gear,
-
Grab any high-value Stock Market/Supply Depot deliveries,
-
Check/collect rare ore, plants, and Recycling yields when they’re capped.
