Tier List Test

This Dragalia Lost tier list ranks characters based on their strengths and weaknesses and overall performance. The purpose of these tier lists is to provide a base level of insight on the various characters in Dragalia Lost. Tier lists are always subjective in nature, so keep that in mind when evaluating them.

• Due to how new the game is, ratings may change rapidly.
• Rating criteria will likely shift with the release of harder content and raids.

Change Log

Version 1.1 Changelog
Adventurer	Tier Change	Description
	S -> A	The incredible potency and uptime of Sinoa’s buffs don’t make up for her inconsistency, and the defensively-oriented buffs are less valuable when Verica or Phoenix alone are sufficient to maintain a healthy party outside of High Midgardsormr, which isn’t covered by this tier list.
	A -> A+	The ability to stack multiple defense debuffs allows Ezelith to contribute much more damage than initially thought, despite her S2’s poor charge time and her S1 having lower DPS than her normal attacks.
	S -> A+	Musashi’s damage output was rated too highly, since he’s held back by the very short buff time on his S2 and inconsistent passives, and as such he can’t compete with Addis as a DPS.
	A+ -> S	Lucretia’s ability to charge energy was underrated. She contributes more damage herself and for the team than Amane, who she originally shared a tier with, since Amane’s strengths over Lucretia are cancelled out by the very long charge rate of her S2.
	S -> S+	Hildegarde's shields have more value than initially thought, due to their ability to block status ailments, and her healing output is excellent to boot. The short quest duration of the average content favors Hildegarde and her 100% Skill Prep over other healers such as Vixel and Verica who would otherwise eventually eclipse her healing output due to superior charge times on potent regen skills.
	B -> C	Ryozen’s damage output is seriously lacking, vying for the lowest among non-healers, and his defense buffs and self healing pale in value to using a healer instead. He’s nearly unkillable, but struggles to pull his weight as a DPS and offers too little to the team to make up for it.
	A+ -> S	Botan still has serious problems with her passive skills, but her damage output through bleed and team strength buffs greatly exceed those placed below her. Among shadow adventurers, only Ieyasu outdamages her.
	A -> A+	Sazanka’s bleed was undervalued. Even if her sleep kit is unreliable or useless in some content, she has high enough damage contribution to be a valuable pick.
	A -> A+	Zace has a higher damage output than any of those still remaining in A among shadow characters, and only benefits further from the attack skill on the 5* shadow lance.
	B -> A	Rodrigo’s High HP = Strength and multiple attack skills give him good damage contribution, and while his AoE might be less impressive than many swords, content hasn’t demanded AoE utility for shadow adventurers since the adds are so spread out in Light IO.
	B -> C	Berserker’s damage output isn’t good, and his survival capability, which isn’t weighted highly on this tier list, is also weaker than characters with similar tankiness such as Julietta and Ryozen. He’s still usable for Light IO, but shouldn’t be chosen for any other content.

Reroll Tier List

Altema's Notice:
"Because Dragalia Lost is a game where attribute compatibility is important, we put excellent light attribute characters without weak points as SS rank. However, it is also important to nurture advantageous attribute characters corresponding to quests. It is not recommended to rely on SS rank characters only."
