Arknights Endfield Reroll Guide: Is It Worth It in 2026

Rerolling in Arknights: Endfield is the process of starting a brand-new account, pushing through the early campaign until the gacha unlocks, spending your free pulls, and deciding on the spot whether to keep that account or wipe it and try again. Rerolling is a common tactic used in Gacha games, which typically involves creating a new account, or redownloading the game entirely. The pull here is that it lets you rig your opening roster instead of leaving your first pulls to whatever the standard rates hand you. Where it gets messy in Endfield specifically is the setup cost: there’s no shortcut account type, so every attempt means a full account from scratch.

The mechanic itself is simple even if the execution is a slog. You create a fresh account, run through the opening story beats, and the game gates its gacha system — called Headhunting — behind an early main mission. Once you clear that gate and hit your first Tele-Protocol Point, you get access to pulls on the beginner banner, the permanent standard banner, and whatever limited banner is currently running. This involves playing tutorials and introductory missions multiple times and is really time consuming, especially in Arknights: Endfield, which has a story heavy epilogue that you can’t skip. That’s the entire bottleneck: there’s no way to bypass the narrative setup, and there’s no guest login to fall back on, so every single attempt costs real account-creation overhead on top of the playtime.

Because rerolling requires a distinct login each time, most players batch multiple email addresses ahead of time rather than making one, testing it, and repeating the signup process from scratch each round. It’s tedious logistics more than difficult mechanics — the actual gameplay loop to reach your first pulls doesn’t change between attempts.

How you structure each attempt changes how many reroll cycles you can realistically get through in an evening. The table below breaks down the common approaches by time investment.

That pity figure matters more than it looks: on this banner, you’re guaranteed to get at least one six-star operator every 80 pulls, which is why a lot of players skip rerolling entirely and just play forward.

Character value in a gacha this young rotates fast, so treat anything below as dated to late July 2026, not permanent gospel. As of Pocket Tactics’ banner tracker, Version 1.4 (“Homecoming”) is live, having gone out on July 16, 2026, and it’s currently the biggest content drop of the year for the game.

Arcane — the current headliner

Arcane is the featured 6-star of the current limited banner, running as Phase 1 of Version 1.4. She’s built around a dual-form kit that reportedly swaps between an INT-focused damage role and a WILL-focused support role, which is unusual enough in Endfield’s system that she’s widely considered one of the strongest reroll targets while her banner is live. If you’re going to burn reroll attempts on anyone right now, she’s the name to check first — just confirm her banner is still active before you commit, since Arcane’s banner, North Yearns the Rift Vigile, is now available during the first phase of Version 1.4, from July 16, 2026 until August 9, 2026 11:59 PM (Server Time).

Liino — worth waiting for, not rerolling for yet

Liino is the next 6-star in the pipeline, an Electric Supporter slated for Phase 2 of the current update. Liino’s banner, Good Morning From Your Dawnstar, will be available during Phase 2 of Version 1.4 on August 9, 2026 (UTC+8), with Arcane and Camille as the limited off-rates. If your reroll window lands before that date, you can’t actually pull her yet — factor that into your stopping rule rather than grinding attempts hoping she shows up early.

Camille and Mi Fu — solid, but not reroll-tier alone

Both are currently riding as off-rate 5-star pulls alongside Arcane’s banner. They’re genuinely useful additions to a roster, but neither is generally considered worth resetting dozens of accounts for on their own — they’re the kind of unit you’re happy to pick up as a bonus during a reroll aimed at Arcane, not the reason to start one.

“There’s a guest account shortcut”

There isn’t. It is unfortunately a tedious process because of the lack of a guest system, but you can at least skip cutscenes to make the process faster. Any guide describing a one-tap guest reroll is either describing a different game or outdated information — Endfield requires a full account every time.

“More rerolls always means a better account”

Diminishing returns kick in fast. After a handful of attempts you’re mostly burning time for marginal upside, especially once you remember that the standard banner’s pity system already guarantees a 6-star without any resetting at all. Treat rerolling as a bounded experiment, not an open-ended grind.

“You need a 6-star or the reroll was wasted”

Not really — a strong 5-star lineup plus a favorable early banner position can outperform an account that spent thirty resets chasing one specific unit. If an account gives you a workable team and you’re already tired of the opening missions, that’s a legitimate stopping point, not a failure.
