How to build Ferrium Mining Rig in Arknights Endfield – Electric Mining Drill Rig MK II

The Ferrium Mining Rig will be one of your most vital resource stations in Arknights Endfield (given the importance of the ore), and it takes a fair bit of effort to unlock.

Interestingly, there’s no update node that unlocks ‘Ferrium Mining Rig’. Instead, you’ll have to unlock the Electric Mining Drill Rig MK II, which allows you to mine Ferrium automatically. Let’s look at how you can build your Electric Mining Drill Rig MK II in Arknights Endfield.

How to unlock Electric Mining Drill Rig MK II in Arknights Endfield

The first task is to make a fair amount of progress along the main storyline. The quest you need to complete is Mystery in the Building, which rewards you with a Basic Expansion Core. This reward opens your gate for obtaining the Ferrium Ore.

The next task is to unlock Basic AIC III from the upgrades tree, which will require the Basic Expansion Core. You’ll also have to complete the Mining III upgrade, which allows you to access the Electric Mining Righ MK II template. This will allow us to create the automated mine system for Ferrium Ore.

Once you unlock the template for the Electric Mining Drill Rig MK II, go to a spot on the map where you can find Ferrium. We will be placing the rig directly on top of the deposit to start our mining process. To craft the rig, you’ll need the following materials.

• 1x Portable Originium Rig
• 10x Ferrium Parts

Naturally, reaching this point will take a certain amount of time. Once unlocked, you’ll be able to setup automated Ferrium Ore mining setups that will be immensely helpful.

The countdown is based on the following timings.

• 10am PT
• 12pm CT
• 1pm ET
• 6pm UTC
• 7pm CET

The game will be available at the same time across all platforms. If you’re still on old-gen consoles, Highguard won’t be available for you to enjoy. It’s coming to PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.

What to expect from Highguard

Highguard arrives from the makers of Titanfall and Apex Legends, and it’s a PvP raid shooter at its core. Players ride, raid, and fight one another to gain control of a mythical continent. While actual information is pretty sporadic at the time of writing, the key idea is pretty simple.

You’ll battle rival Warden crews to gain possession of the Shieldbreaker. Once done, you can break into and destroy the enemy base to gain victory. Of course, things won’t be easy when your opponents aim to do the same with your base. The fun begins on Monday, and it will be interesting to see if Highguard will manage to make a significant impact in an already-saturated genre.
