Welcome to Arknights: Endfield! This is LazyCouch, and I’m proud to be one of the moderators for the Arknights: Endfield Speedrun.com leaderboards. I’m really excited for the future of Arknights: Endfield speedrunning! So why don’t we celebrate it with a little event?

Incoming Transmission from Valley IV:

Supervisor Perlica! We from the U.W.S.T. request immediate assistance! We have received significant resistance from the Landbreakers. We have spotted a mysterious Archosauria leading an army in Valley IV with a very large Landbreaker leading the vanguard. I am sending the intel we have. We request you make this your immediate priority!

Endmin! The U.W.S.T. is requesting our immediate assistance. We will need you to directly intercept their vanguard and put a stop to this large Landbreaker. Based on the intel the U.W.S.T. sent, the large Landbreaker is known as Rhodagn the Bonekrushing Fist. Endmin, Rhodagn is a high threat Elite enemy and needs to be eliminated. Our operators will sortie with you as soon you are ready. Stay safe, Endmin!

Endministrator! It seems we have also received a request from researcher Yvonne, I will forward you the message:

Hi Endmin! This is Yvonne! The Tech Division here at Endfield Industries has been testing some interesting new technology and for that we need you to collect combat data for us from some of the most dangerous enemies we’ve faced before! I’m confident you’ll only bring the best of datasets for us! Oh, and the faster you defeat them, the better we’ll be able to understand what weaknesses we can exploit in the future!

It seems Yvonne and the Tech Division have some new projects that would be of great help to us. When you have the time, Endmin, please help her collect the data she needs. Don’t push yourself too hard though!
