Arknights: Endfield’s Automated Industry Complex (AIC) is awesome. You can basically build your whole factory the way you want. But let’s be real, when you first open it, it is kind of overwhelming, especially if this is not your type of favorite gameplay. Conveyors, machines, shredders… it is a lot.
The good news is that you do not have to start from scratch. The community is already sharing Arknights: Endfield blueprints for factories that actually work, and you can use them to get a strong early setup without spending hours experimenting.
Blueprints Are a Game-Changer
Blueprints let you save entire factory layouts, including machines, conveyor belts, and even power setups. Players who have tested these layouts share them publicly, and that means:
- You can import a fully functional factory instantly
- No need to understand every little detail early on
- Focus on producing mats and leveling your operators instead of fiddling with logistics
In other words, you get all the benefits of an optimized factory without the headache of building it for hours. Keep in mind that even if Blueprints make your factory way easier, they are not magic. You will still need:
- The necessary materials
- Enough power to run machines
- Mid-game unlocks for certain machines
Think of blueprints as a shortcut, not a replacement for progression. When you place down a Blueprint, it might let you know that you are missing some specific machine or materials. If this is the case, the factory will obviously not run as intended.
You can still place the print down, but you will have to explore and gather some mats, or progress your story, in order to unlock the necessary facilities. Once you have them, you can simply add them to your factory.
Strong Blueprint Examples
The following blueprints shared by another outlet are really useful during your early-game progression. They help you get all the necessary mats you need until you hit mid-late game. Keep in mind that codes are region-locked! The following codes are for US/EU servers, so they will not work on Asian servers.
- Early Resources – EFO013o72I2588a90579
- Complete Amethyst Materials Set-up – EFO01893u0E03415UI73
- Buck Capsules C – EFO01o083aOa8261IieO
- Complete Ferrium Materials Set-up – EFO012I45uAu4e83eIOo
- LC Valley Battery – EFO011ea0ioia3Ue34O7
- Seed Collector – EFO01Iao8151oE965o08
For those who are already a bit further into the game and need more different materials, here are blueprints that will cover nearly all mid-to-late game materials:
- Produces Origocrust, Ferrium, Amethyst, Steel, and Cryston parts efficiently
- Requires Iron Ore, Originium Ore, Ferrium, Quartz Sand, Amethyst Fiber, Sandleaf, and Cryston Fiber
- Comes with a tested power setup using Thermal Banks and purple batteries
Here are the codes for each server:
- EU/NA: EFO014o5OUA2oO3aE71A
- Asia: EFO01a658e7U9IAeoe5e
This layout gives you tons of materials without worrying about making a lot of AIC mistakes, as long as you can feed it power.
Keep in mind that one well-fed packaging unit can maintain multiple Thermal Banks, producing enough energy to keep a big layout running, and that is very important.
Where to Find More Blueprints
Of course, the mentioned blueprints here are not the only ones available. You can find many different ones! Some will cover entire PAC or Sub-PAC layouts, others will only cover one specific item. You have two main options:
- In-game
- Browse public blueprints directly through the AIC interface (if your friends shared the blueprints they are using)
- Easy, fast, no external websites needed
- Online
- Community sites like Talos Pioneers or Endfield Tools let you search blueprints by materials or production goals
- Great if you are looking for something specific, like maxing certain mats or supporting heavy operator promotions
Community blueprints let you skip the frustration and start producing what you need immediately. This is a great way to not spend hours trying to max out your productions for operator promotion, gear upgrades, or anything else. Using a proven layout saves time and stress.
Start small, import a layout, and change it as you go. Your early factory life will suddenly feel way less chaotic.
