Gilberta Build Guide

Gilberta is really flexible as both Physical and Arts teams benefit from her. Below are some team recommendations, but any content or team that benefits from grouping can make use of Gilberta.

Laevatain Wulfgard Perlica Gilberta

Gilberta helps everyone apply their inflictions on multiple enemies. Making it easier for Laevatain to consume and stack Melting Flame.

Avywenna Arclight Perlica Gilberta

Another team that highly benefits from grouping. Gilberta Nature Inflictions also helps Perlica and other agents to trigger Electrification, which is important for Arclight.

Endministrator Chen Qianyu Estella Gilberta

Gilberta can group enemies and help Estella apply Solidification, which allows Estella to apply Physical Susceptibility to enemies. The grouping also helps the Endministrator to hit more enemies with their Battle Skill and Ultimates.

Build Recommendations are based on Weapons/Gear from Beta 2. Multiple Equipment pieces have changed for release. Stay tuned for updates.

Weapons

• Best-in-Slot: Delivery Guaranteed
• Alt: Opus: Etch Figure
• Alt: Oblivion
• Alt: OBJ Arts Identifier
• Alt: Stanza of Memorials

Gilberta’s Signature is the best option for her as it increases her Ultimate Generation and the Arts Damage of the team. Opus: Etch Figure is similar to it and can replace Gilberta’s Signature for Arts based teams.

If you want a more generic option that still provides Team Utility, Stanza of Memorials is a great option for her, but the stats are not that useful. OBJ Arts Identifier is the same, but for Electric and Heat Operators.

Oblivion gives zero utility and it’s purely for damage, which is not Gilberta’s main role in the team, but works if you really want to.

Gear

• Gear Set: Eternal Xiranite
• Armor: Tide Fall Light Armor
• Gloves: Eternal Xiranite Gloves T1
• Kit 1: Eternal Xiranite Auxiliary Arm
• Kit 2: Eternal Xiranite Auxiliary Arm

Eternal Xiranite only triggers on Gilberta’s Ultimate, but it provides great damage potential for your team. Stack a lot of Ultimate Gain Efficiency to increase this set up time. Intellect also helps with her healing.

Ultimate > Combo Skill = Battle Skill > Basic Attack

Leveling her Ultimate increases the Arts Amp effect so focus on this first for increased Team Utility. Everything else is just for Gilberta’s damage contribution.

• P1 Above the Clouds
• P2 Wind Walker
• P3 Quick, Gentle Steps
• P4 Dances with Clouds
• P5 Special Mail

Gilberta’s Potentials increases the utility provided for the team. Potential 2 and 3 has the most interesting effects as Potential 2 increases the Arts Damage of your team while her Ultimate is active and Potential 3 increases the Ultimate Generation from her Combat Talent even further. Everything else is mostly for her damage potential.

Keep in mind that vertically investing in Arknights Endfield is not recommended and you should treat these as a bonus damage/utility for your Operator.

Playing Gilberta is all about using her utility to increase your team's damage. She has some synergies with Physical Agents too, as her Ultimate applies Arts Susceptibility based on the number of Vulnerable Stacks. 

Start by applying some other Arts Infliction to enemies, after this you can use her Battle Skill to pull enemies and apply Nature Infliction, triggering Corrosion on enemies and activating her Combo Skill. Use her Combo Skill to apply Vulnerable to enemies and follow-up with her Ultimate to extend the duration that enemies stay in the air.

Gilberta will release on January 22nd, 2026 along with the release of Arknights: Endfield.

She will be part of the Limited Off-Banner Pool during Laevatain Banner. Gilberta's Limited Banner will then follow.

Her Limited Banner will last for approximately 2.5 weeks until Yvonne Banner starts on February 24th, 2026.

From there, Gilberta will continue to be in the Off-Banner Pool for 2 banners, making the last chance to get her fall somewhere around April 1st. (estimate)
