Character Guides
NTE tier list, builds, and recommended team compositions — updated for Season 2026.
Tier List
Based on the current patch environment and community testing
Highest burst damage in the game. Scales incredibly well with investment and fits almost any team.
Versatile elementalist with strong AoE and single-target rotations. Excellent for Anomalous Zones.
Free unit that unlocks full potential later in the story. Great damage and survivability.
Reliable sustained DPS with simple execution. Low skill floor, high consistency.
Strong off-field damage and elemental application. Enables many reaction teams.
Party-wide ATK buffs and energy generation. Fits into nearly every composition.
Best healer in the current patch. Also provides solid party buffs and cleanse.
High burst on swap. Great for quick-swap team archetypes.
Fire-type hypercarry. Needs dedicated support but rewards investment heavily.
High stagger resistance and team shielding. Excellent for hard content.
Good buffer for elemental teams. Less universal than Kozhi but strong in niche comps.
Decent AoE damage. Falls off in single-target boss fights.
Applies DEF shred. Useful against high-defense bosses when paired with a strong main DPS.
Adequate healing but lacks the utility of Sakuri. Budget option for new players.
Good AoE, weak single-target. Can serve as a temporary filler.
Limited buffs and low personal damage. Generally outclassed by higher-tier supports.
High HP but low utility. Other tanks provide more team value.
