Cardigan

Cardigan is a 3-star character in Arknights. Cardigan's class is Defender. Faction: Op Reserve A4.

On our Arknights tier list Cardigan is D tier, 258th of the 293 characters ranked, from where 11 current tier lists put Cardigan.

Cardigan tanks with unusually high HP for a 3-star, and her talent pushes that HP pool even further, making her arguably the toughest 3-star operator around. Regeneration α lets her heal herself without leaning on Medics, and she's cheap to level despite recruiting differently from most 3-stars.

Her DEF trails Beagle's, though, and since she's headhunting-only, raising her potential takes real luck.

A young Leithanien Perro, Merry is a former member of the Leithanien Bobsled Patrol Team, which she joined to make up for her failure to become a skier.

At some point Merry met Steward and Adnachiel and quickly befriended them.

However, the three were caught in a snow storm while hiking, which caused both Steward and Adnachiel to suffer from frostbite and even worsened their Oripathy.

After five hours of desperate serching for medical aid, Merry finally found Rhodes Island and requested to become their operator in exchange for the duo's treatment.

She picks up the codename "Cardigan" and works as a member of Op Reserve Team A4 where she is acting as a defender.

However, Cardigan is also infamous for her hyperactive behavior, which has caused many problems for her teammates from time to time.

Only available from headhunting, not in the recruitment pool
