Major Compilation Sources#
PRTS.wiki - This is the CN wiki and is the single most comprehensive source of gameplay information. It is, of course, all in Chinese, so use it in Chrome or another browser with built in translations. That’s not ideal, but if you are interested in the details of how the game works, it’s well worth the trouble. It’s one of the best game sites in all of gaming.
Closure.wiki - One of the best compilations of the EN Operator kits around. Updates very fast with active development.
Sanity;Gone - Another great general source for EN information. This also is a location I publish my guide articles. You can also find Mal’s Module articles here.
Aceship Fork - Aceship was one of the original sources of EN AK information and remains popular to this day for how light weight it is. This is a maintained fork of it by puppiizsuniiz.
Arknights Terra Wiki - Probably the most comprehensive source of data for EN. It’s the only resource here that contains lore information, but it does have occasional interpretation errors due to the massive amount of information.
Useful Tools#
Farming and Efficiency Sheets with Video Explanation - These are the most up to date farming efficiencies by PeterYR. These are a great resource if you want the most value out of your sanity. Be sure to watch the explanation video if you have doubts.
Event Efficiency - PeterYR also creates a brief efficiency overview of each event. He’s absolutely worth a follow.
PRTS.map - This site lets you look up stages and see unit pathing as well as unit placement. It is excellent for getting into the details of a stage. It’s a little slow to update with the EN names, but all the information is there.
Penguin Stats - This site compiles drop statistics from the various stages. However, please be aware that this is NOT the same as efficiencies. Use PeterYR’s links above for the best farming stages.
Base combo guide - A sheet that shows the best base production combos.
Mal.io’s Module Recommendation Guides - Mal writes Module articles along the same lines as my own Mastery articles. They are a great resource for that topic and can be found in most of the same places.
AKGCC Story Reader - Tired of reading long events on your tiny phone screen? This is a great web-based story reader that makes reading the content much easier.
Arkntools.app - A great promotion planner for seeing your material and crafting needs. This is the one I personally use.
Krooster - A great way to track and share your roster. It also has a material tracker like arkntools.
Community Sites#
r/Arknights Help Thread - Have a question? The best place to ask is the Reddit Help Thread (always pinned at the top) or join the community Discord. If you plan to ask a roster question, set up a Krooster first. It makes things easier.
Lungmen Dragons - This is the major EN player organization, primarily emphasizing niche play.
Arkrec - This site tracks all of the record clears across all of the servers. However, it only tracks clears submitted to it so there may be records not documented by the site, especially on global servers (it does support global submissions).
