How to Get Ardelia in Arknights Endfield?
You can get Ardelia for free from Day 3 of the Awakening Sign-In permanent event. You can also get Ardelia by pulling her from the Basic Headhunting, New Horizons Headhunting, and the limited banners. She is a 6-star operator with a 0.8% drop rate in all banners.
Who is Ardelia in Arknights Endfield?
Ardelia is a Rhodes Island operator assigned to Endfield Industries where she serves as an expert geologist under the framework agreement between the two companies.
Ardelia's early work centered on volcanoes, but today her research extends into Ætherside and geological disasters. She spends most of her time in the field, venturing alone into disaster sites to collect samples, analyze structures, and develop theories that have become the cornerstone of Endfield's Blight countermeasures.
Always humble and polite, she carries an inner strength that never seems to run dry. To her, happiness is simple: climbing another mountain, walking another path, hearing the voices of the world, and uncovering the hidden wonders of this planet.
And if you can become good friends with Ardelia, then Mr. Dolly is sure to like you too.

Ardelia Best Weapons in Arknights Endfield
Dreams of the Starry Beach is Ardelia's signature weapon and her absolute best choice when supporting Arts damage teams. It has excellent stats perfectly suited for her, and after she consumes Corrosion to apply her Susceptibility debuff, it also adds a powerful Arts Damage Taken debuff to enemies for a long time. However, there's one important limitation: this weapon does nothing helpful when Ardelia is supporting Physical damage teams.
Stanza of Memorials becomes Ardelia's go-to weapon when playing in Physical teams since her signature doesn't work there. It has decent stats for her, and more importantly, gives all non-Nature operators a large ATK boost for a long duration whenever she uses her Ultimate.
Monaihe serves as a fallback alternative if you don't have either of the weapons above.

Ardelia Best Team Comps in Arknights Endfield
Ardelia is one of the most universally flexible supports in the game, fitting into almost any team composition with only one exception: teams that leave lingering Inflictions on enemies, which prevents her from using her Combo Skill properly. Beyond that limitation, she works seamlessly with nearly every team thanks to her broad supportive toolkit.
Here are the best team comps for Ardelia:

How to Play Ardelia
Ardelia's gameplay revolves around a simple loop: trigger her Combo Skill to apply Corrosion, then consume that Corrosion with her Battle Skill to apply powerful Susceptibility debuffs. The key restriction is that her Combo only triggers when you land a Final Strike on an enemy that has no Arts Infliction or Vulnerability stacks, so timing your Final Strikes correctly is essential to keeping her rotation flowing.
Start fights by landing a Final Strike before your team applies any Inflictions or Vulnerability stacks. This activates Ardelia's Combo, which attaches a bomb to the enemy that explodes after a short delay and forcibly applies Corrosion.
Throughout the battle, watch for moments when your team consumes their Inflictions or Vulnerability stacks, then immediately weave in another Final Strike during that clean window to trigger her Combo again. Missing these windows means losing access to her Combo for extended periods, which hurts her ability to function.
Once Corrosion is applied to an enemy, use Ardelia's Battle Skill to charge at them. If they have Corrosion when you hit, she'll consume it and apply a 30-second Arts and Physical Susceptibility debuff, this is the core of her support value and should be maintained on priority targets throughout the fight.
Her Ultimate serves multiple purposes depending on what you need. Use it when your team needs healing, as it spawns copies of Mr. Dolly that have a chance to turn into Shadows of Mr. Dolly, collect these shadows to heal your controlled operator or the teammate with the lowest health percentage.
