Arknights Endfield is a pretty complicated game, filled with unique factory systems and mechanics that can be difficult to comprehend at first. It seems like the game is constantly throwing new stuff at you as you progress, and quite frankly, it can become overwhelming.
However, some of these systems are worth fully understanding as they can make your entire playthrough much more manageable. For example, Stock Redistribution is important as it can help you make a significant amount of in-game currency.
In typical gacha-game fashion, Stock Redistribution goes deeper than it first appears. Read further to learn everything there is to know about Stock Redistribution in Arknights Endfield.
What Is Stock Redistribution in Arknights Endfield?
Simply put, Stock Redistribution in Arknights Endfield generally acts like the real-life Stock Market. The prices of items rise and fall over time, giving players the opportunity to buy low and sell high. In other words, Stock Redistribution allows you to make a profit.
There are two parts of Stock Redistribution: Staple Goods and Elastic Goods. The former is more of a standard shop, where you can purchase items for a set price, while the latter is the Stock Market-like feature mentioned earlier.
Staple Goods is pretty self-explanatory; there are set items for sale that you can purchase with Stock Bills. As for Elastic Goods, you can buy a low-priced item (indicated by a red number) and sell it for a higher price (indicated by a green number) for a profit.
Repeating these steps is by far the most efficient and quickest way to get a ton of Stock Bills. Luckily, if you’re still confused, you can access the tutorial to the Stock Distribution at any time by the main menu.
Keep in mind that items in the Staple Goods section of Stock Redistribution are a one-and-done type deal. Once you purchase an item, it is gone for good. However, upgrading Stock Redistribution will unlock more items for purchase in Staple Goods. This guide explains how to upgrade in the next section.
It’s important to note that if you want to use the Stock Redistribution feature with friends, they must have it unlocked in their own game. If you don’t have a ton of friends in Arknights Endfield, I recommend going to the official Arknights Endfield Reddit page to find some account IDs to add.
How to Unlock & Upgrade Stock Redistribution
Players won’t be able to access the Stock Redistribution feature until they progress the story a bit and reach Valley Pass. After entering Valley Pass and reaching Authority Level 14, the “Restart Area Stock Redistribution” Urgent Quest will unlock through a Baker call from Qin Jiangchi. This quest introduces the Stock Redistribution feature, and completing it unlocks it for good.
Keep in mind that reaching level 15 is no easy feat and can take a good amount of time. However, there are methods to level up fast. For example, doing node tasks, completing main missions, and spending Sanity on Protocol Spaces can get you to level 15 fairly quickly.
After unlocking Stock Redistribution, players can easily access it whenever they want by opening the Regional Development tab from the pause menu. This will be your go-to tab whenever you want to make a good amount of Stock Bills quickly in Arknights Endfield.
While there are daily limits imposed on Stock Redistribution, players can increase the amount by upgrading it. To upgrade Stock Redistribution, speak to Lucky Carrot at the Stock Terminal to find the upgrade option. From here, the game will tell you the exact items, materials, and amount of Stock Bills you need to upgrade.
