Intro
Major Tier list update! Probably the biggest update yet. First of all, our UI is completely overhauled (Hopefully for the better). With more incoming changes to the character pages soon.
Secondly, I’ve removed PvP from being weighted in combined, as it is simply such a drastically different game mode. And should be separated from PvE (Even more so when champions arena comes out). So now, it’s 60% Bossing and 40% Campaign.
Thirdly, most story ratings of Nikkes have been dropped! The high tiers are rather untouched, but all others have been lowered, this is to help differentiate the massive difference between good/usable Nikkes compared to Meta and top pick Nikkes, this does somewhat mesh the lower tiers more, but more or less, they perform rather similarly in Campaign. Unlike the sheer differences of the tiers above, I felt the need to clarify that difference. This also allows more breathing room for me when ranking future Nikkes! Also, I did not remove a “tier”, a tier that was never used (“E”), is now used in exchange for removing “S+”. It would look like this in comparison:
Old: New
SSS – SSS
SS – SS
S+ – S
S – A
A – B
B – C
C – D
D – E
F – F
As always. Feed back and thoughts about the changes are always welcome! It may seem harsh to downgrade a lot of Nikkes, but it should be easier for me to rank future Nikkes, especially if they’re top tier!
Change log
Assume all changes/nerfs were because of reasons stated above, otherwise notes will also be included if there’s a more specific reason for a nerf
Boss 9.0 -> 8.7
Another CDR Nikke was released, and no doubt better than volume
Story 10 -> 9.5
Although undoubtedly still extremely good in campaign, Liter is no longer a “always be in your team” or campaign clearing is bricked if one does not have her. This is due to Red Hood Solo burst I strats and D: killer wife being able to buff similarly to Liter when running Pierce Nikes
Story 9.1 -> 9.3
Basically a more investment hungry Red Hood, Didn’t deserve to be too far off from Red Hoods Score
Story 10.0 -> 9.8
Boss 9.4 -> 9.2
Still an amazing campaign clearer, but not exactly as powerful as Red Hood. More Nikkes are catching up to her in regards to bossing
Story 9.1 -> 8.8
Boss 9.8 -> 9.7
Story 9.1 -> 8.7
Boss 9.4 -> 9.2
Story 8.6 -> 8.2
Boss 9.65 -> 9.3
Story 9.0 -> 8.6
Boss 9.3 -> 9.2
Story 8.7 -> 8.3
Boss 9.4 -> 9.2
Story 8.5 -> 8.1
Story 9.0 -> 8.4
Our most recently rated character, Nerfing her to follow the rules of the tier changes. And forming a bit more opinions around. Really needs a high ST Nikke and very strong buffers for her to be able to clear high deficits.
Story 9.05 -> 8.8
Still a staple Screen wiper. with good off-burst damage
Story 8.7 – 8.3
Similar performance to Emilia in campaign but harder to put in teams due to HP drain/ Locking into specific teams to do well or be usable
Story 8.6 – 8.2
Story 8.4 -> 8.0
Boss 8.65 -> 8.4
Simply hard to buff properly.
Story 8.7 -> 8.3
Story 8.1 -> 7.5
More DPS’s around, less need for her full burst buffs
Story 8.15 -> 8
More CDR’s around, offers too little outside of that
Story 8 -> 7.4
Boss 8.5 -> 8.4
Taunt + 40s CD in 2024 high deficit campaign? not in this economy.
Story 8 -> 7.0
Boss 8.55 > 8.3
Healing + 60s CD in 2024 high deficit campaign? not in this economy part 2. More healers released that are simply superior
Story 8.0 -> 7.6
Boss 8.2 -> 8
Story 7.9 -> 7.4
Story 8.0 -> 7.7
Story 7.5 -> 7
Shotgun, enough said
Story 7.5 -> 7.1
Boss 8 -> 7.9
Story 6.1 -> 5
Story 8.5 -> 8
Solid amount of capable Burst III generators have been released. Also has substitutes
Story 7 -> 6.5
Boss 8 -> 7.7
Story 7.5 -> 6.8
Boss 7.5 -> 7.3
Story 7.5 -> 6.7
Boss 8.1-> 7.5
More viable tanks/healers. Snow white team slowly drifting away from team 5 solo raid
Story 8.5 -> 7.8
Story 7.5 -> 7.1
Story 7.5 ->7.0
Story 7.0 -> 6.5
Story 5 -> 6.5
Boss 8.3 -> 7.9
Her campaign usage isn’t bad, as usually getting hit/knocked out of combat calls for a restart anyways. Her burst is still bugged and applies full addition damage 3x (900% x 3) which can be a rather solid nuke, still no good AoE options though.
Boss 8.5 -> 8.0
Boss 8.5 -> 8.6
Boss 8.6 -> 8.4
Story 7.0 -> 7.2
Boss 8.7 -> 8.4
Boss 8.0 -> 7.5
Reload Speed strats simply fall off late game / more viable buffers
Story 2.0 -> 5.5
Has Burst AoE. However, does have a full screen taunt for 10s every 30s, practically a death sentence.
Story 7.0 -> 6.5
Same reasoning as Centi
Story 4.0 -> 5.5
Boss 7.0 -> 6.5
Underestimated RL’s potential in Campaign, despite having a bad burst. also, Rem.
Story 7.5 -> 6.9
Same reason as Centi
Story 7.5 – 6.5
Story 7.0 -> 6.0
Boss 8.1 -> 7.0
a lot more viable healers and tankers have been released. Niche tanker that can only be used in bosses that fire multiple pellets per attack for her skills to heal her.
Boss 7.5 -> 7.1
Hard to fit teams with her. Part damage buff is inconsistent depending on boss.
Boss 8.5 -> 8.3
Getting harder to fit into teams that doesn’t just outright fully heal her in Solo raid meta
Boss 7.0 -> 6.0
……..
Boss 7.6 ->6.4
Boss 3.0 -> 4.0
Boss 5.4 -> 6.0
