Lily May, a must-have Wilder, delivers exceptional damage and utility. Thoran remains the best F2P tank, even with Phraesto's availability. Reinier is a top support for both PvE and PvP. Koko and Smokey & Meerky are essential supports for most game modes. Odie excels in Dream Realm and PvE. Eironn, with Damien and Arden, forms a dominant Arena team. Tasi, a powerful Wilder crowd control character, is versatile across most modes. Harak, a strong Hypogean/Celestial warrior, gains strength with each kill.
Lyca and Vala utilize the crucial Haste stat effectively. Antandra is a solid alternative tank to Thoran. Viperian complements a Graveborn core with energy drain and AoE attacks. Alsa is a strong DPS mage, particularly effective with Eironn in PvP. Phraesto, a durable tank, lacks damage output. Ludovic is a valuable Graveborn healer, synergizing well with Talene. Cecia, while still a good Marksman, has decreased late-game value. Sonja significantly enhances the Lightborne faction with damage and utility.
B-Tier characters are suitable for filling roles but lack the power of S or A-Tier. Valen and Brutus are strong early-game DPS options. Granny Dahnie is a decent alternative tank. Arden and Damien are PvP meta mainstays but less effective in other modes. Florabelle is a secondary DPS supporting Cecia. Soren performs adequately in PvP but lacks effectiveness elsewhere. Korin's Dream Realm performance has diminished.
C-Tier characters are quickly outclassed in the late game. Parisa, while offering early-game AoE control, should be replaced as soon as possible. These characters are best used until better replacements are acquired.
