SOULS Hero Tier List
[UPDATED JAN 2024]
UPDATE January 2024:
The best heroes including tanks, healers, supports, and dealers you can use are packed in this updated SOULS hero tier list. The first 2 heroes in the SS rank are the best of the best. So you can’t go wrong in investing in Richelle and Lulu at any given time. The rest of the heroes are top-tier as well but can be dependent on the team composition more than the first 2 heroes.
NOTE: Light and Dark heroes are hard to star up, but worth investing in the long run.

IMPORTANT NOTES for SOULS Hero Tier List

DISCLAIMER
Should only be used as a guide, heroes’ true power can differ depending on team comp and the enemy stage.
Bahzam, Ripper, and Coco placements are still tentative and subject to change in the next tier list
This tier list was made by gathering knowledge and votes from 15 players currently in Endgame, discussing endgame meta, and content frequently. All of these players got to vote on the rank of each unit and this tier list is the average of these votes for endgame content.
The tier list is currently ORDERED from Left to Right by their numerical average based on the results of all players’ rankings.
NOTE: Later stages will have 2 or 3 waves (maybe even more later?) So you will need 10 to 15 heroes for these stages. Some units sitting in lower ranks will still be important for these stages.
What will this tier list tell you?
– Which units will perform better late game in specific or general situations?
– Which units are safe to invest in with endgame considerations
– Which units are good once invested in. (No, your 5* Sander will not outperform an 11* Telfer)
What will this tier list not tell you?
– Which units (except for S+ rank) are good in every content? Some units rank high because of their specialties.
– WHY a unit is bad or good. This is not a gospel, if you’re early game, stars matter a LOT.
– Which units will perform better for YOUR account?
