ℹ️ How to read this tier list
Tiers are subjective and based on overall performance across Story, Raids, and Challenges as of the Update 4.0 (EA+) patch (July 20, 2026 ET). They are a starting point — a lower-tier unit with great traits and gear can still outperform a poorly built higher-tier one. Base stats are not yet verified, so placement leans on roles and community consensus.
