S-tier
In the S-tier of the above roles, we have included classes that are the best to use in the game. They are best in their respective roles and surely do pack a punch in what they do. By choosing them in the game, you will not only be at an advantage but also have fun playing them.
A-Tier
The A-tier consists of good overall classes like Heavy Guard, War Medic Soulhacker, and more. All these classes are great, and if you manage to use them well enough, you could get more out of them. This Tier includes classes with good potential and can be very useful in the game.
B-Tier
The B-Tier consists of characters that are not the worst to use. However, they are not the ones that should be your first choice. They are decent characters but don’t have the power to give your enemies a sucker punch in the game.
C-Tier
This Tier consists of classes we don’t recommend using if you are playing the game competitively. You can visit them if you want to try different classes and have fun. These classes dont manage the roles given to them perfectly, so using them could make you fall into a pickle during battle.
