Arknights is a resource management armageddon, where players must figure out optimum ways to allot Sanity against an array of materials for Operator growth. And with a maximum of 12 Operators deployable per run, there’s a lot to promote and skill up.

One of the most common items you’ll find yourself needing a lot of is the Dualchip, which is required for promoting five and six-star Operators to Elite 2.
