This tier houses the most impactful heroes, excelling across multiple game modes. Lily May, a recent addition, is a must-have Wilder character, offering significant damage and utility. Thoran remains a top F2P tank, while Reinier is a crucial support for both PvE and PvP. Koko, Smokey & Meerky, and Odie are essential supports for various game modes. Eironn, paired with Damien and Arden, forms a dominant PvP team. Tasi provides excellent crowd control for the Wilder faction, and Harak, a powerful Hypogean/Celestial warrior, is a strong contender.
These characters are highly effective but may have niche uses or be slightly outclassed by S-tier heroes in specific scenarios. Lyca and Vala excel with the Haste stat. Antandra is a solid alternative tank to Thoran. Viperian complements a Graveborn core, while Alsa provides strong DPS and synergizes well with Eironn in PvP. Phraesto is a durable tank but lacks damage output. Ludovic is a valuable Graveborn healer, and Sonja significantly enhances the Lightborne faction. Cecia, while still a capable Marksman, has been moved down due to meta shifts.
These heroes are suitable for early-game progression but are often replaced by higher-tier characters later on. Valen and Brutus are strong early-game DPS options. Granny Dahnie serves as a decent early tank. Arden and Damien are PvP mainstays but less effective in other modes. Florabelle and Soren are recent additions with specific uses but aren't considered must-haves. Korin's effectiveness has decreased due to recent game changes.
These characters are generally outclassed quickly and should be replaced as soon as possible with higher-tier alternatives. While Parisa offers some utility, she's best replaced as soon as feasible.
This tier list provides a valuable starting point for building your AFK Journey team. Remember to check for updates as the game evolves and new characters are introduced.
