Arknights: Endfield Avywenna Character Build & Teams | Character Guide

Avywenna is the go-to Electric DPS for players who want a team that actually feels rewarding to play. She's one of the most F2P-friendly damage dealers in Arknights Endfield - her best weapon comes from the Level 45 Selector everyone gets, and her core teammates are all 4-5 star operators.

But don't let that accessibility fool you. Electric teams built around our bunny wife demand precise timing, careful positioning, and constant attention to Battle Skill management. When everything clicks, watching six Thunderlances rip through enemies in a single pull is genuinely satisfying.

This guide covers skills, optimal builds, team compositions, and rotation tips. If you're comparing Avywenna to other operators, this article slots directly into our Arknights Endfield Tier List.

Skills

Basic Attack - Thunderlance: Blitz
  • Up to 5 attack sequences dealing Physical DMG
  • Final Strike deals 17 Stagger when Avywenna is the controlled operator
  • Mid-air attacks become Dive Attacks dealing Physical DMG in an area
  • Attacking a Staggered enemy triggers a Finisher dealing massive Physical DMG and restoring SP
Battle Skill - Thunderlance: Interdiction SP Cost: 100
  • Leaps into mid-air and pulls back all Thunderlances and Thunderlance EX on the battlefield towards herself
  • Returning Thunderlances pierce through all enemies along their paths and deal Electric DMG
  • Returning Thunderlance EX deal more Electric DMG and apply Electric Infliction
  • Also deals Electric DMG to nearby enemies while pulling back lances
This is where all of Avywenna's damage lives. The more Thunderlances on the field when you cast this, the bigger the hit. Stack at least 6 lances before pulling for optimal damage.
Combo Skill - Thunderlance: Strike Cooldown: 12s

Trigger: When controlled operator performs a Final Strike on a target with active Electric Infliction or Electrification

  • Leaps into mid-air and throws 3 Thunderlances at the target
  • Deals 1 hit of Electric DMG to enemies in the area
  • Thunderlances remain on the field for 30 seconds (50s with P2)

Critical: Avywenna cannot trigger her own Combo Skill. She needs another operator (typically Perlica) to apply Electric Infliction first. This dependency defines her entire team composition.

Ultimate - Thunderlance: Final Shock Energy Cost: 100
  • Throws a Thunderlance EX at the target area dealing massive Electric DMG
  • Thunderlance EX remains on field for 30 seconds (50s with P2)
  • Through her talent, also applies Electric Susceptibility to enemies hit
Use this after stacking Combo Skill lances but before Battle Skill. The Thunderlance EX adds significant damage to your pull and triggers the Susceptibility buff for P5.

Talents

Expedited Delivery

After a thrown or returning Thunderlance or Thunderlance EX hits an enemy, Avywenna gains 3/4 Ultimate Energy. This stacks quickly when pulling multiple lances through grouped enemies.

Tactful Approach

Ultimate Thunderlance: Final Shock improved: Also applies 6/10% Electric Susceptibility for 10s to enemies it hits. This buff is essential for P5's damage bonus.

Stalwart

Each Promotion grants Will: +10 (I) → +15 (II) → +15 (III) → +20 (IV). Total: +60 Will at max promotion.

Residence Advisor (Base)

Assign to Control Nexus to grant all operators' Mood Regen +8/12%.

Messenger's Secret (Base)

Assign to Reception Room to grant operators a small Clue 2 Rate-UP: TGCC.

Potentials

P1
Doubling Down
Talent Expedited Delivery improved: Ultimate Energy gain +2 (from 4 to 6 per lance hit)
Nice QoL
P2
Pole of Menace
Thunderlance and Thunderlance EX duration +20s (30s → 50s). Enables stacking 4-5 Combo Skills instead of 3.
Major Upgrade
P3
Hard Negotiator
Will +15, Electric DMG Dealt +8%
Stat Boost
P4
Very Experienced
Ultimate Thunderlance: Final Shock improved: Ultimate Energy cost -15%
Rotation Smoother
P5
Carrot and Sharp Stick
When returning Thunderlances hit an Electric Susceptible enemy, DMG multiplier increased to 1.15x. Proc your lances within 10s of casting Ultimate.
Big DMG Spike
P2 is the standout upgrade. The extra 20 seconds of lance duration completely changes how you play - you can comfortably stack 12+ lances before pulling instead of rushing to 9. P5 is a solid damage increase but requires you to Ultimate before Battle Skill to trigger the Susceptibility window.

Character Analysis

Avywenna's gameplay loop is all about setup and payoff. Unlike Laevatain who can self-sustain her rotation, Avywenna is completely dependent on teammates to get started. She can't trigger her own Combo Skill - someone else needs to apply Electric Infliction or Electrification first. This makes Perlica essentially mandatory.

Once the setup is in place, the flow is straightforward: apply Electric, Final Strike to spawn Thunderlances, repeat 2-3 times, drop Ultimate for the Thunderlance EX, then pull everything back with Battle Skill. The challenge lies in executing it cleanly while managing positioning and timing across four operators.

What makes Electric teams genuinely fun is the visual and mechanical payoff. You're actively building toward a big moment. Every Combo Skill drops three lances on the field. Every Ultimate adds the EX lance.

And when you finally pull the trigger on Battle Skill, watching six to twelve spears rip through a boss in a single devastating line is incredibly satisfying. It's high-effort gameplay with a matching high-reward moment.

Why Positioning Matters

Thunderlances spawn behind the target when Avywenna's Combo Skill triggers. When you use Battle Skill, they all fly back toward her.

Any enemy between the lances and Avywenna takes damage from every lance that passes through them. This means positioning Avywenna on the opposite side of enemies from where the lances spawned maximizes damage.

In practice: hit the enemy's front side with Final Strikes (spawning lances behind them), then reposition to that back side before casting Battle Skill. Grouped enemies in the lance path get destroyed.

Team Order Guide

Avywenna must be placed before Perlica in your team order. When a Final Strike triggers multiple Combo Skills simultaneously, the game processes them in team slot order.

You want Avywenna's lance spawn to happen while Electric Infliction is still active - if Perlica's Combo Skill processes first and consumes the Electrification, Avywenna's Combo Skill won't trigger.

Best F2P Team

Electric teams are remarkably accessible. Perlica is a 5-star that most players pull early. Arclight is a 5-star support/battery. Antal is a 4-star buffer. Akekuri is a 4-star SP generator. You can build a fully functional team without pulling a single limited banner.

Even better, JET (Avywenna's best weapon) comes from the Level 45 Selector that every player receives. Her signature weapon Cohesive Traction is available from the Stock Redistribution Shop for 400 tickets - no gacha required. The gear she wants (Bonekrusha) drops from farmable content.

Best Weapons

1
JET - Avywenna's Signature Weapon
JET (Level 45 Selector)
Best in slot. Provides Will, ATK%, and Arts DMG bonus after using Battle Skill or Combo Skill. Since that's literally her entire gameplay loop, you'll always have this buff active.
Available from the Level 45 Selector - one of the best uses for that account-wide choice.
2
Cohesive Traction - 5 Star Weapon for Avywenna
Cohesive Traction (Signature)
F2P-friendly option available from Stock Redistribution Shop (400 tickets) or Arsenal Shop. Provides Will, Electric DMG, and a stacking Combo Skill DMG buff that increases your next Battle Skill's Electric damage.
These stacks (up to 3) can make for truly massive Battle Skill bursts. Solid choice if you used JET selector elsewhere.
3
Aggeloslayer - 4 Star Weapon for Avywenna
Aggeloslayer
Budget option with Will and Arts DMG bonus. After Battle Skill hits, grants ATK% buff for 20 seconds. Use this while saving for better options.

Best Gear Sets

Bonekrusha Set (Optimal)
3-piece bonus: ATK +15%. When casting Combo Skill, gain 1 stack of Bonekrushing Smash granting +30% DMG to next Battle Skill. Stacks 2 times.
This set was made for Avywenna. You naturally cast 2-3 Combo Skills before Battle Skill, so you'll always have max stacks (+60% Battle Skill damage) when it matters.

Gloves - A Better Alternative
Pulser Labs Gloves provide Electric DMG Dealt Bonus instead of Combo Skill bonus.

Avywenna Teams

Electric teams revolve around one constraint: Avywenna needs Electric Infliction applied to enemies before she can do anything. Perlica is the only operator who reliably provides this on demand, making her essentially mandatory. The remaining slots focus on SP generation, damage amplification, and utility.

F2P Core Team

This team uses only 4-5 star operators that most players will have access to early. It handles story content, dailies, and most endgame scenarios without issue.

Avywenna - Five Star Character Portrait
Avywenna - Main DPS - Slot 1
Your primary damage dealer. Stack Thunderlances with Combo Skill, add a Thunderlance EX with Ultimate, then pull everything back with Battle Skill for massive burst.
Must be in a team slot before Perlica so her Combo Skill triggers first when both proc simultaneously.
Perlica - Five Star Character Portrait
Perlica - Electric Enabler - Slot 2
Non-negotiable. She's the only operator who reliably applies Electric Infliction for Avywenna's Combo Skill trigger. Her Battle Skill applies Electric Infliction on demand, and her Combo Skill applies Electrification after Final Strikes.
Without Perlica, Avywenna's kit doesn't function. Build around this requirement.
Arclight - Five Star Character Portrait
Arclight - Battery/Sub-DPS - Slot 3
Arclight functions as the team's engine. She generates SP through her kit and provides consistent damage between Avywenna's burst windows.
Important: Don't use Arclight's skills to consume Electrification if Avywenna's Combo Skill is available. Timing matters - let Avywenna's lances spawn first.
Antal - Four Star Character Portrait
Antal - Buffer/SP Support - Flex Slot
Applies Electric Susceptibility through Battle Skill and Ultimate, amplifying all Electric damage. Low SP cost means he doesn't compete for resources.
Use his skill at the start of battle to set up the Susceptibility debuff before Avywenna's burst.

Team Variations

The Avywenna + Perlica core is fixed. Third and fourth slot is flexible based on what you need:

Akekuri - Four Star Character Portrait
Akekuri - Replaces Antal or Arclight - Flex Slot
More SP generation than Antal. Use her if you're struggling with SP economy or want faster rotations. Her Combo Skill triggers on staggered enemies, providing team-wide SP recovery.
Best choice if you don't have Arclight - Akekuri can cover some of the battery role.
Ardelia - Six Star Character Portrait
Ardelia - Replaces Antal - Flex Slot
Best healer in the game and completely free from Awakening Sign-In. Provides Corrosion application and Physical/Arts Susceptibility debuffs.
Arclight deals significant Physical damage and benefits from Ardelia's debuffs. Use this setup for harder content where survival matters.
Gilberta - Six Star Character Portrait
Gilberta - Replaces Antal - Flex Slot
Massive CC through her pulling Battle Skill. Groups enemies together so Avywenna's returning Thunderlances hit everything in the pack.
Her Battle Skill applies Nature Infliction which combines with Electric for Corrosion. Wait for her Battle Skill to end before triggering any Arts Reaction - the timing is tight but the grouped enemies make Avywenna's burst devastating.
Gilberta can slot into any team and make it better!

Opening Rotation (F2P Team)

Standard Opener
Antal Battle Skill Perlica Battle Skill Avywenna Final Strike Perlica Combo + Avywenna Combo Arclight Combo Repeat Final Strike cycles Avywenna Ultimate Avywenna Battle Skill

Detailed Rotation Steps

Step Action Result
1 Antal Battle Skill Apply Electric Susceptibility to target
2 Perlica Battle Skill Apply Electric Infliction
3 Avywenna Basic → Final Strike Trigger Perlica + Avywenna Combo Skills
4 Arclight Combo → wait 1.5s → Battle Skill → Combo Generate SP and damage
5 Repeat steps 2-4 (2-3 cycles) Stack 6-9 Thunderlances
6 Avywenna Ultimate Add Thunderlance EX + Susceptibility
7 Avywenna Battle Skill Pull all lances for massive burst

Rotation Tips

Thunderlances stay on the field for 30 seconds. With the 12-second Combo Skill cooldown, you can comfortably fit 3 Combo Skills before lances start expiring. At P2 (50-second duration), you can push to 4-5 Combo Skills for even bigger bursts.

Stack at least 6 Thunderlances before using Battle Skill. Each lance generates Ultimate Energy when it hits enemies, and you'll already be spending SP on other operators for Electric Inflictions - being efficient matters.

If you have P5, make sure to cast Ultimate before Battle Skill. The Susceptibility from Ultimate lasts 10 seconds, and P5's 15% damage bonus only applies to lances hitting Susceptible enemies.

Don't let Arclight consume Electrification if Avywenna's Combo Skill is available. This is the main source of rotation mistakes - watch your cooldowns and prioritize Avywenna's lance placement.

Don't Want to Build the Electric Team Yourself?

Electric teams require investment across multiple operators - Avywenna, Perlica, Arclight, and your flex slot all need levels, promotions, and gear.
