How to defeat the boss in Arknights Terminal Guide for the boss battle in Arknights Terminal

Arknights: Endfield boss battles blend strategy with real-time action elements. Players need to adjust their tactics based on the unique mechanics of the BOSS, and reasonably combine operators' skills and positioning. For newcomers or those encountering real-time combat for the first time, it can indeed be quite challenging. Next, I will share some general battle strategies for Arknights: Endfield bosses. Familiarizing yourself with their attack patterns and countermeasures is key to clearing the stages, so let's take a closer look!

The fight against Chalk Guard is divided into two phases. In Phase 1, you should prioritize dealing with the tentacles. The ranged tentacle releases a spiral three-shot bullet attack; after dodging, focus on destroying it to reduce pressure. The melee tentacle uses a five-hit ground smash, with the fifth hit locking onto the main character, requiring preemptive evasion. Once the tentacles are defeated, the BOSS core appears; if not destroyed in time, Phase 1 will repeat with an increase to four tentacles. In Phase 2, the skill tempo accelerates. Moves like "Javelin Throw" and "Lance Thrust" require observing the pre-attack animations and using dodges or side steps to avoid them. Special attention should be paid to the BOSS's "Flying Skill"; the red circle on the ground needs continuous movement to dodge, and before the full-screen earthquake attack, there will be vertical warning lines, which can be avoided by jumping in time.

Rodan, as the first heavy BOSS, has large and sweeping moves, suitable for newcomers to get familiar with the combat rhythm. In Phase 1, pay attention to the red range indicator for "Bone-Crushing Fist Stomp," which can be evaded with lateral movement; "Double Fist Combo" has a noticeable pre-attack animation, allowing for a predictable counter. In Phase 2, the new "Red Circle Pull" mechanism pushes players towards the BOSS with a strong wind, requiring evasion at the edge of the red circle. During the flame spray, the BOSS does not turn, so moving behind it allows for safe attacks. When the yellow progress bar shifts left, it indicates a stagger window, where all-out attacks can trigger additional damage.

The battle against the Corrosive Humanoid is highly explosive, requiring a dispersed formation. In Phase 1, focus mainly on dodging. In Phase 2, the movement speed increases, and it is recommended to bring high-health operators (like Ember) to absorb damage. Equipping the "Iron Guard Set" can improve survivability, but avoid hard confrontations; instead, wait for the BOSS's post-skill stun or when its resilience is broken to concentrate your attacks.

From the strategies shared for several BOSS fights, it can be seen that the core of the BOSS battles in this game lies in observing the mechanics and reasonably distributing skills. If you get stuck, don't worry; repeated practice to familiarize yourself with the pre-attack animations, optimizing operator combinations and equipment choices, will allow players to gradually overcome high-difficulty challenges. The battle design in Endfield indeed emphasizes operation, so everyone should practice more.
