1. Introduction: Tier List Notes and Evaluation Criteria
  • ✅ This tier list is based on evaluations from the closed beta test, so it may differ from the evaluations after the official release.
  • ✅ Evaluation criteria are versatility and difficulty of acquisition. Versatility is ease of use in everyday situations, and difficulty of acquisition is considered because it is right before release.
00:19 - 00:30
2. Evaluation Criteria: Versatility & Difficulty of Acquisition
  • ✅ Versatility: Evaluates how easy it is to use in everyday situations. Strength in boss battles is also considered, but ease of everyday use is emphasized.
  • ✅ Difficulty of Acquisition: Considering that it is right before release, the difficulty of acquiring each character is taken into account.
00:31 - 00:43
3. Consideration of Boss Battles and Ranking
  • ✅ Strength in boss battles is also considered. Characters who are very strong in boss battles are not ranked C, but are evaluated as B or A rank.
00:44 - 01:28
4. Separating Limited Characters in Tier List
  • ✅ Considering the difficulty of acquisition, limited characters (Laevatein, Guinevere, Yvonne) are evaluated separately from the regular tier list.
  • ✅ Putting limited characters in the regular tier list would skew the tier list because they have top-class performance.
01:29 - 02:16
5. Ranking of Limited Characters: Laevatein is #1
  • ✅ Ranking among limited characters: Laevatein > Guinevere > Yvonne
  • ✅ Laevatein: Strong in both boss battles and versatility, a character you'll be happy to get.
  • ✅ Guinevere: Extremely versatile and compatible with any character.
  • ✅ Yvonne: My personal favorite. Strong in boss battles and easy to use with normal attacks, but the downside is that it's difficult to build up her ultimate.
02:17 - 03:08
6. Limited Character Details: Guinevere and Yvonne
  • ✅ Guinevere: Her charm is her versatility. She is compatible with any character.
  • ✅ Yvonne: Personally, my favorite. Extremely strong in boss battles and easy to use with normal attacks. However, her weakness is that it is difficult to build up her ultimate.
03:09 - 03:40
7. S Rank: Dawn Kris
  • ✅ Dawn Kris: A 4-star character, but a super versatile buff character. Easy to obtain and can be obtained for sure.
03:41 - 04:06
8. C Rank: Fluorite
  • ✅ Fluorite: C rank, but not weak. Combinations are important in Endfield, and all characters have a use.
  • ✅ Fluorite's attribute (natural attribute) had few attackers at the time of the closed beta test, so it was rated C.
04:07 - 04:49
9. Fluorite's Future Potential and Alderia
  • ✅ If an excellent natural attribute attacker appears in the future, Fluorite's evaluation may increase.
  • ✅ Alderia: Overwhelming S rank. Free distribution was decided on the live broadcast.
04:50 - 05:35
10. S Rank: Alderia (Free Distribution)
  • ✅ Alderia: 6-star character. The management will distribute it to all players for free as a 1-week bonus.
  • ✅ She has overwhelming support power, massive healing, and attack power buffs for the entire team, making her extremely versatile.
05:36 - 06:02
11. CBT Environment and Healer Evaluation
  • ✅ Since it was a damage-focused environment at the time of the closed beta test, damage characters were more important than healers.
  • ✅ A composition that relied on brute force with a tank was popular.
06:03 - 06:48
12. A Rank: Arclight
  • ✅ Arclight: A character whose evaluation varies depending on the player. The fastest CT for linked skills.
  • ✅ Player skill is important, and it is recommended for people who like pressing buttons. Difficult to handle for those who are not good at it.
06:49 - 07:11
13. Arclight's Performance and Difficulty of Acquisition
  • ✅ Strong against mobs, but lacks firepower in boss battles.
  • ✅ Considering versatility and difficulty of acquisition (5 stars), the evaluation is high.
07:12 - 07:57
14. A Rank: Last Light
  • ✅ Last Light: Extremely strong in boss battles. Versatility is low, but considering boss battles, it is in the top of A rank.
  • ✅ Has the potential to exceed limited characters, but is A rank due to the high difficulty of acquisition (6 stars).
07:58 - 08:45
15. A Rank: Snowshine (Free Distribution)
  • ✅ Snowshine: High tank performance, making it easy to clear for the first time. Can also counter.

  • ✅ Very compatible with the administrator. Low difficulty of acquisition and high versatility.
09:38 - 09:53
17. Notes on Tier List: Importance of Combinations
  • ✅ Endfield is not about individual characters being the strongest, but about combinations being important.
  • ✅ There is a good chance that C-tier characters will become A or S in the future.
09:54 - 10:14
18. Evaluation of Electromagnetic Attribute and IBN, Perlica
  • ✅ Electromagnetic attributes were not very popular in CBT. There were no 6-star attackers with electromagnetic attributes.
  • ✅ IBN, Perlica, etc. were rated B or C tier because the electromagnetic attribute was not the meta.
10:15 - 10:31
19. Perlica's Evaluation and IBL's Future Potential
  • ✅ Perlica: Highly versatile and can be obtained by all players, so it is rated B rank.
  • ✅ IBL: If the electromagnetic party becomes popular in the future, it may become S rank.
10:32 - 10:48
20. Physical Attackers: Pogranik and Lyfeon

11:12 - 11:20

  • ✅ Pogranik, Lyfeon, and Chen Comrade are 6-star characters, so they are difficult to obtain.
11:21 - 12:03
23. B Rank: Zai Bi
  • ✅ Zai Bi: Difficult to evaluate. A character for advanced players.
  • ✅ For those who have Yvonne, she has S-rank performance, but since Yvonne herself is difficult to obtain, she is rated B rank.
12:04 - 12:16
24. Reasons for Zai Bi's Evaluation and Notes
  • ✅ Zai Bi is a healer, and since it was a damage-focused environment at the time of CBT, she was rated B rank.

12:17 - 13:00
25. A Rank: Ember
  • ✅ Ember: Many people cleared boss battles by combining her with Laevatein.

13:01 - 13:20
26. C Rank: Dapan
  • ✅ Dapan: Low versatility, strong in boss battles, but not used much in CBT, so rated C rank.
13:21 - 13:38
27. Reasons for Dapan's Evaluation and Development

13:39 - 13:56

14:38 - 15:01
30. B Rank: Alesh
  • ✅ Alesh: Support for ice blood attributes.
  • ✅ Rated B rank because Yvonne is difficult to obtain and can be substituted with other supports.
15:02 - 15:20
31. C Rank: Catcher
  • ✅ Catcher: Excels at SP recovery, but since it was a damage-focused environment, it was easy to evaluate that it was better to prioritize other damage characters, so it was rated C rank.
15:21 - 15:42
32. B Rank: Estella
  • ✅ Estella: A character for advanced players. Strong when used in combination with Ribbonne.
