ARKNIGHTS X RAINBOW SIX SIEGE ~ SPECIAL LIMITED COLLAB EVENT!
184 View2024-09-07
Arknights will be running a collaboration event starting from 5th September to 19th September with Rainbow Six Siege titled: Operation Lucent Arrowhead. In case your wondering, this is not the first time Arknights has had a collaboration with Rainbow Six Siege. The first one was back in 2021 and this is the second collaboration featuring new Operators from the Rainbow Six Siege franchise with a story set in the world of Arknights.
True Limited Operators & is it F2P?
The banner will feature Ela as the 6 star followed by Doc and Iana as the five star operators. Fuze will be the free wellfare Operator of the event. As usual, collab Operators will have a guaranteed pity of 120 pulls of which the game will give you 20 pulls for free. 100 pulls are pretty easy to farm up as a F2P. Do note that collab limited operators will not appear as a off rate banner on future limited banners which is why they are classified as "true limited operators" in Arknights.
Rainbow Six Siege Collab Operators
I must say that while I haven't played Rainbow Six Siege, the kits of these Operators in Arknights are pretty faithful to the one in R6S based on the very quick and little research I have done.
ELA
Ela is the featured 6 Star operator for the collab banner. She is a Trapmaster that specializes in using her famous Grzmot Mine for various utilities and damage set up. Her diverse kit includes stuns, slows, fragile and some defense ignore. Not only does she have insane CC capability but also extremely strong DPS for someone in the Trapmaster class.
IANA
Joining Arknights as an Dollkeeper, Iana utilizes her Gemini replicator to summon a holograhic image in aiding her. Dollkeeper is a pretty versatile class with the gimmick of summoning a substitute when their HP reaches 0 or during skill activation. Iana in particular helps in revealing invisible enemies with her substitute mirage while also using it as a decoy.
DOC
Doc is an "Instructor Guard". This sub-class of Guard specializes in supportive utility and Doc in particular focuses on healing utility. Having a semi healer that dishes out damage can sometimes be exactly what is needed for a stage.
FUZE
Fuze is also a Guard of the Centurion sub class, able to block and attack three enemies at once. More importantly, he uses cluster charges to deal AOE physical damage but has a limitation of being able to use only three charges per deployment.
New Operator Outfits
【CROSSOVER Collection - Safehouse - Ela】
"A set of clothes that Ela bought at the market. Light and comfortable, it is her favorite outfit in the safehouse. She particularly likes how the local hat looks on her."
【CROSSOVER Collection - Mirrormaze - Iana】
"Iana's casual outfit for her free time. She has changed into a pair of shorts, hoping that the sun here is different. Perhaps she will not need her hood."
【CROSSOVER Collection - Exhibition - Doc】
"Picked by Doc based on practical requirements, offering protection against wind, dust, and cold as he goes to the next place that needs him. Of that, there is never a shortage."
