Operation guide: TR-4
| Operation | Guide | Story |
The fourth tutorial operation of Arknights, TR-4 gives an insight on blocking enemies, which is one of the most important mechanics in the game, and using Vanguards as early-game Operators.
At first Dobermann will explain on offensive Vanguards' functionalities; namely their low DP cost and the ability to generate DP on each kill, which can be very useful in the early game. Afterwards, do as she instructed by deploying Plume on C5 facing left to engage the first Hound. However, two additional Hounds will spawn; as Dobermann notes, Plume can only block a single enemy, so they will slip through her.
Dobermann will then elaborate on defensive Vanguards' functionalities; namely their ability to block two enemies and generate DP with their skill, and Fang is available for deployment. Do as Dobermann instructs by deploying Fang on C7 facing left, who will be able to block the second and third Hounds after they moved past Plume who is preoccupied with the first Hound. This way, the fourth Hound will be blocked by Plume while the fifth and last will be blocked by Fang.
