To optimize the Wuling factory in Arknights 1.2, upgrade factory areas except for the final steps, set up resource loops using V3 blueprints, and manage production for balance across Xiranite, Hetonite components, and Cuprium parts.
Prerequisites for Wuling Factory Optimization
Before optimizing the Wuling factory, ensure the following preparations are completed:
prerequisites
- Upgrade Core AIC area: Nearly complete the Core AIC area, stopping before the final depot bus construction upgrade.
- Upgrade Jinyu Valley and Marker Stone areas: Expand these areas minimally. For Jinyu Valley, unlock area expansion one and two only. For Marker Stone, include the first depot bus and expansions one and two.
- Story quest completion: Unlock required factory areas and their production capabilities by completing all necessary story quests. Skip the three tower quests.
- Cuprium availability: Gather a sufficient amount of Cuprium parts, approximately several thousand, for supporting production setup.
Setting Up Xiranite Production Cycle
Efficient Xiranite production requires thoughtful placement and blueprint utilization.
steps
- Setup thermal banks and ensure around 6.6K total battery power.
- Place V3 Xiranite P1 blueprint aligned with the base corner layout.
- Connect and extend production using V3 Xiranite part two blueprint.
- Install conduit inlet manifolds and fluid pumps to maintain steady Xiranite material flow.

Factory Setup for Hetonite Components Production
Hetonite components are crucial for crafting advanced gear and can be efficiently produced by following these setup steps.
steps
- Install acid pumps and water conduits at Marker Stone factory.
- Apply V3 Marker Stone blueprint to structure the production loop.
- Balance resource input like sand leaves and acid to ensure smooth operation without bottlenecks.
- Double-check conduit connections and monitor Hetonite output for consistency.

Marker Stone Area Optimization
To optimize Marker Stone production systems, focus on layout efficiency and resource flow.
steps
- Establish seed loops using sand leaves to drive production.
- Strategically place units for acid and water flow, minimizing resource waste.
- Continuously validate component connections to prevent interruptions in Hetonite parts production.
- Prepare additional resources or transfers from other base areas for support as required.

Cuprium Parts Generation Strategy
Maintaining a steady Cuprium parts supply is vital for expansions and factory maintenance.

Managing Excess Production and Regional Transfers
Large-scale production can lead to surplus materials. Managing such excess effectively will prevent inefficiencies.

Optimization of Blueprint Codes and Adjustments
Blueprint codes are central to factory layout success, and adjustments may enhance setups further.
