Character Evaluation

Damage Output has High Priority

Since many stages have the objective of defeating enemies, characters are evaluated with a focus on attack performance. The higher the attack power, the fewer actions are needed to defeat enemies, which increases the chances to win in battle.

Characters With Act Again Skill

Since you can only act once per turn, having a character in your party that can use Act Again skills are highly valued.

Fast Movement and Long Range

Not only is movement range important, but attack range is also a key evaluation factor. Characters with high movement speed can quickly approach enemies, and long attack range allows them to strike from a distance, so characters with both high mobility and range are highly rated.

Powerful Buff and Debuff Skills

Buff and debuff skills become more effective as their levels increase, which helps in finishing a stage. Therefore, characters with higher levels of buffs/debuffs are rated more highly.

Easy to Use Characters

Because you need to use various skills in battles, characters that are not that complicated to use are also considered to be important in the Tier List.
