Top 25 Characters in Arknights 2023
As explained at mtglion.com, Hypergryph’s Arknights features tactical RPG combined with tower defense objectives that can keep you on your toes throughout gameplay. It has over 100 characters to choose from, and this article will look to list what we think are the top 25 characters in Arknights in 2023.
- Carnelian
As per mtglion.com, the Caster Operator Carnelian is mature and calm, yet partial to some havoc now and then. While she normally does not attack, she has greatly increased DEF and RES. When her skill is active, attacks deal AoE Arts Damage.
- Ifrit
Ifrit is a 6-star AoE Caster who is notable for her DPS, her flat stat Debuffs, and her unusual attack range, where she damages all enemies in a long line straight from her position. Everything about Ifrit is meant to send your enemies straight to the crematorium.
- Passenger
Passenger, the Operator with a dispassionate smile that never changes, has left behind much more than just his real name. He left the black market behind to join Rhodes Island as a 6-star Chain Caster Operator, skilled at AoE damage and rapid-fire Slow effects.
- Blemishine
Blemishine is Nearl’s sister and Whislash’s niece. When Nearl contracted Oripathy and was forced to leave Kazimierz, Blemishine had to step up and take her sister’s place as the lead knight of the family as articulated at mtglion.com.
- Horn
While we won’t go into the circumstances that led to her becoming a soldier in the employ of Rhodes Island, suffice it to say that she is coming back swinging as a 6-star Fortress Defender with jaw-dropping damager capabilities.
- Nian
Nian is a draconian 6-star Normal Defender whose unique blend of survival tools, defensive buffs, and Arts damage can change the flow of battle. Nian is also Arknight’s first limited gacha unit, and was only available on a special Chinese New Year banner and was not added to the regular gacha pool after the banner ended.
- Hellagur
The venerable Ojiisan of Arknights, Hellagur is a former war veteran of the Ursus army, the victor of countless battles, and a tragic hero who has taken the lives of friends with his own hands for the sake of an Empire he now stands against.
- Nearl the Radiant Knight
According to mtglion.com, Nearl the Radiant Knight is a 5-star Dreadnought Guard with a dazzling display of different talents: dueling potential, helidrop potential, True damage, extra attack range, extra Blocking, Stuns, Shields, and more.
- Thorns
Thorns has chosen to use an Iberian school of swordsmanship, which is impossibly physically and mentally demanding. He is, however, incredibly good at it, wielding his massive spiked blade as a 6-star Ranged Guard and demonstrating his prowess.
- Honeyberry
Honeyberry chose her codename for a very good reason: she is a sugar fanatic. While she has not been able to convince her superiors that shoving sugar treats in the faces of her fellow Operators is a legitimate psychological treatment, at least she has been certified as a 5-star Wandering Medic.
- Kal’tsit
The notorious Kal’tsit, puller of strings and mastermind extraordinaire, has put aside her apparent dislike of the Doctor enough to aid them in battle as covered at mtglion.com. She is stepping out of the supporting role she has played in Arknights up until this point and hitting the field as a 6-star ST Medic.
- Shining
Shining is a 6-star single-target Medic who specializes in powerful healing and DEF support. Her Talent, Black Fiend’s Protection, as well as her second and third Skill, all provide DEF buffs to her allies in the field.
- Archetto
Archetto is a 6-star Anti-Air Sniper who is willing to do a little bit of everything: hit multiple targets, hit multiple times, extend her attack range, block incoming attacks, and even generate SP for her Sniper allies.
- Flametail
Flametail is a 6-star Pioneer Vanguard specializing in Dodging, hitting multiple enemies with one swing, and rapid-fire DP generation captured at mtglion.com. She focuses on Dodging to an extent not seen with previous Operators.
- Schwarz
Embodying the sleek grace and killing power of the black panther, it is no surprise that Schwarz is a hugely popular Operator. She is also a 6-star Close Range Sniper who is one of the more powerful dedicated boss-killer units in Arknights.
- Phantom
The elusive Phantom is a versatile 6-star Fast-Redeploy Specialist with a vast utility who sends enemies of Rhodes Island past the point of no return. Phantom’s defining feature is his ability to create a clone of himself through his Talent, Phantom in the Mirror.
- Weedy
As described at mtglion.com, Weedy is a leafy seadragon and researcher who has been with Rhodes Island since its inception. While she used to refuse to take to the battlefield before because of her extreme OCD and germaphobia, she is now getting her hands dirty as a 6-star Push Specialist with some unexpected DPS potential.
- Specter the Unchained
While Specter the Unchained has changed from a 5-star Centurion Guard to a 6-star Dollkeeper Specialist, she still occupies the same space of turning immortal and grinding up multiple enemies at a time into a bloody paste, with the addition of AoE Slow and Arts damage from her substitute form.
- Angelina
Although hesitant towards combat, the Siracusan Transporter Angelina is devoted to her allies and delivering messages. She is a DPS and Support Slower. She also has AoE Damage and Flat Healing capabilities at higher Promotion levels.
- Shamare
While those around her thought she was cursed, Rhodes Island knows better. She is a 5-star Debuff Supporter whose creepy voodoo-like powers can be a great asset on the battlefield as discussed at mtglion.com.
- Ling
Ling is the third of the immortal sisters to join Rhodes Island. She is a 6-star Summoner Supporter, conjuring illusionary turquoise dragons who strike from melee, breathe Arts from range, or fuse into overwhelming Block-4 giants of stats.
- Bagpipe
As a Rhodes Island Operator, Bagpipe is a 6-star DP-on-Kill Vanguard who packs incredible DPS into multiple hits and accelerates Vanguard DP gain. The Precise Reloading Talent gives you a great idea of what Bagpipe is here to do: murder everything.
- Myrtle
Underestimating this flag-bearing, apple-wielding Durin because of her diminutive stature would be a huge mistake as revealed at mtglion.com. On the battlefield, she is a 4-star Operator who fills the niche of a Skill-DP-Recovery and Healing Vanguard.
- Saga
Saga ended up signing on with Rhodes Island because of Operators Lava and Kroos. She now wields her naginata and her relentlessly optimistic nature as a 6-star Skill-DP-Recovery Vanguard who generates DP for the Doctor and transforms enemies into SP batteries for her allies.
- Siege
Siege’s natural command, courage, and composure have made her one of the most sought-after Vanguards at Rhodes Island. Siege is a well-rounded DP-Recovery and DPS Vanguard that can block 2 enemies.
