AFK Journey Tier List

This tier list prioritizes versatility and performance across various game modes. While some heroes might dominate specific areas, this ranking considers overall effectiveness.

S-Tier Characters

Lily May, the latest addition, is a must-have Wilder character, excelling in damage and utility. She counters Eironn teams in PvP and significantly boosts Wilder team performance.

Thoran remains the top F2P tank, even with Phraesto's introduction. Reinier is still the premier support for both PvE and PvP, crucial for Dream Realm and Arena.

Koko and Smokey & Meerky are essential supports for most game modes. Odie shines in Dream Realm and all PvE content.

Eironn, paired with Damien and Arden, forms a dominant Arena team.

Tasi, a powerful Wilder crowd control character, excels in most modes except perhaps Dream Realm (though this may change with future updates).

Harak, a strong Hypogean/Celestial warrior, gains strength as battles progress, making him a formidable force.

A-Tier Characters

Lyca and Vala utilize Haste effectively; Lyca boosts party Haste, while Vala increases her own with each kill. Lyca's PvP performance can be inconsistent.

Antandra is a solid alternative tank to Thoran, offering taunts, shields, and crowd control.

Viperian complements a Graveborn core with energy drain and AoE attacks, but struggles in Dream Realm.

Alsa, a strong DPS mage, is a viable alternative to Carolina in PvP, especially with Eironn.

Phraesto, a durable tank, lacks damage output. Prioritize Reinier before investing in him.

Ludovic, the first Graveborn healer, works well with Talene and excels in PvP.

Cecia, while still a good Marksman, has decreased in value due to the Dream Realm meta shift.

Sonja significantly improves the Lightborne faction with respectable damage and utility.

B-Tier Characters

B-Tier characters are suitable for filling roles but lack the power of S and A-Tier heroes. Prioritize replacing them with higher-tier options.

Valen and Brutus are strong early-game DPS characters.

Granny Dahnie is a decent alternative tank if Thoran or Antandra are unavailable.

Arden and Damien are PvP meta mainstays but lack PvE utility.

Florabelle is a decent secondary DPS character supporting Cecia, but requires significant investment.

Soren performs moderately in PvP but is suboptimal in other modes.

Korin's effectiveness in Dream Realm has diminished.

C-Tier Characters

C-Tier characters are outclassed quickly and should be replaced as soon as possible.

Parisa, while offering early-game AoE crowd control, is quickly surpassed.

This tier list is subject to change with future updates and character adjustments. Continuously check for updates as the game evolves.
