In Arknights: Endfield, the Element system assigns each Operator a specific Arts element that shapes how their attacks interact in combat - causing different effects and reactions when combined with other elements. Elements influence enemy weaknesses and resistances, and landing elemental hits applies Arts Inflictions that can trigger extra damage or status effects when stacked or crossed with other elements

Physical Element Characters
The Physical element represents non-elemental, force-based Arts that rely on raw impact rather than elemental reactions. Physical Arts damage is generally consistent and effective against a wide range of enemies, especially those without high physical resistance. Unlike elemental Arts, Physical attacks focus more on direct damage than on triggering complex reactions. This makes Physical element Operators reliable damage dealers in straightforward combat situations. Learn more in our Elements, Arts and Reactions guide.
