All ratings in this page are taken verbatimExactly the same without modification from the Gamewith tier list

This page simply shows the ratings in table format, and adds short summary of the character abilities.

Other notable tier lists

• kamigame Tier List

Includes a ★ ranking for how easy a character is to use for beginners. More stars means they're simple to use off-the-bat, while less stars means the character either has a learning curve or require more investment to reach full potential.

Reading the tier list

The following sections are general guidelines on how to interpret the tier list.

Important points

• The value and usefulness of a character varies based on your rank, your team, fight length, fight mechanics and how you play.
• Each element is evaluated on its own. A 9.5 rating in Fire is not the same as 9.5 in Water.
• The rating reflects the median usefulness of a character. A character may lose points for being hard to use or fit in a team, or gain points for being strong against Magnas. Judging a character by HL usefulness alone may be unhelpful as HL teams tend to deviate from other content.
• Ratings are strictly taken from Gamewith. Tier list remarks and bullet points on gbf.wiki are not necessarily from Gamewith and are usually from wiki contributors.
• The Eternals have their own rating system separate from other characters.
• Arcarum Evokers currently do not have any rating due to the heavily time-gated nature of their recruitment process.
• At the end of the day a tier list is just a tool to help you find useful characters.

Role meanings

• Attacker - Focuses on dealing damage through skills and attacks, including selfish or mostly-selfish buffs and debuffs.
• Defender - Focuses on protecting the party through damage mitigation or attack redirection. Includes Party DMG Cut, Substitute, high hostility, etc.
• Debuffer - Focuses on decreasing an enemy's effectiveness or ability to do damage through stat decreases or statuses. Includes Delay and Gravity.
• Healer - Focuses on directly restoring the HP of other party (or raid) characters. Does not include self-healing or shields.
• Support - Focuses on increasing the party's (or raid's) effectiveness or ability to complete content through stat increases or statuses. Includes Clarity, Dispel, etc.

Rating range for each rarity

SSR Characters

SSR characters are generally scored between 7 to 10 points.
However, only characters that affect the balance of the game as a whole may score 10 points.

For SSR characters an easy way to read these ratings are:

10 rating	Gamebreaking
9.5 rating	Vital in many team setups
9.0 rating	Fills the gaps between 9.5 characters
8.5 rating	Useful for specific fights or challenges
8.0 rating	For teams lacking something or rare circumstances
7.5 rating	Should have been an SR.
7.0 rating	Garbage

SR Characters

SR characters are generally scored between 4.5 to 8.5 points.

8.5 rating	Outperform SSR characters with proper setup.
8.0 rating	Can compete with standard SSR characters for party slots.
7.5 rating	Higher SR standard. No real faults, and can complement a team well.
7.0 rating	Middle SR standard. Competent functionality.
6.5 rating	Lower SR standard. May perform a role decently, but will never excel.
6.0 rating	Functional, but easily overshadowed.
5.5 rating	The minimum SR usefulness.
5.0 rating	Ask for a refund.
4.5 rating	Garbage to detrimental. More trouble than they're worth.

R Characters

R characters are generally scored from 3 to 6.5 points.

6.5 rating	As useful as an SR character
6.0 rating	Outstanding for an R character. Exhibit a special feature or exploit that gives them an edge.
5.5 rating	Functionally equivalent to and typically able to replace a low-tier SR Character.
5.0 rating	Useful kits that can fit well into team compositions.
4.5 rating	Usable in standard situations.

	Hazen		7.0	Role: Defender Unusual either-or play style centered around Pity. Anti-synergy between using SubstituteReceives foe attack in place of an ally (Excludes all-foe all-ally attacks) defensively versus enabling offensive versions of skills.
	Io		7.5	Role: Attacker/Support/Healer Given to you early on in the story. Clear and Heal II provide decent protection in the early game. By the time you've progressed far enough in the story to uncap her, you will have better options.
	Jasmine		4.0
	Jasmine		8.0	Role: Healer 100% Debuff Res. UpDebuff resistance is boosted Strength: 100%Duration: 3 turns Growth Potion can boost the healing of other characters. Green Potions provide extra healing, but are unreliable.
	Jessica		9.2

	Johann		7.0
	Johann		6.5	Role: Healer/Support Very simple healer kit; one of the oldest designed event characters in the game. Difficult to sustain a whole party with his single-target heal in longer battles. Brand new players may appreciate a free Light healer, but his mediocrity makes him easily replaceable.

	Rosetta		9.0	Role: Attacker/Support/Debuffer Group heal and clarity, valuable in Dark which has few healers. Can provide dispel for Luminiera Omega. Usually not needed since most fights don't require much healing. Heal lands before clarity which is bad for Celeste Omega.

	Sophia		8.5	Role: Healer Archetypal RPG healer; she heals, removes debuffs, and revives allies. Lacks any team damage contribution outside of her normal attacks. Charge Attack does no damage; instead it heals and gives allies strong buffs. She's more useful in the back line since she can revive front line allies after they're KO'd. Very useful character for HL content.
