Sword of Convallaria Tier List

Our Sword of Convallaria tier list is dynamic, evolving with the introduction of new characters and balance updates that can shift the game's meta. It's important to note that even B or C-tier characters can successfully navigate the PvE content. However, for those dedicated to optimizing their party for maximum efficiency, targeting S-tier characters is the way to go. Below is our comprehensive tier list and character rankings. For those seeking solid Epic and Rare characters to bolster their team while pursuing Legendaries, we've included a section at the end to assist in your selections.

S-Tier

No surprises in the S-tier. Beryl, Gloria, Inanna, and Col are prime targets for rerolling your account for a robust start. Beryl and Col are the top DPS characters currently, with Beryl slightly outperforming due to her Destroyer-type advantage against most foes, except Watchers. Col, however, excels as a rogue, capable of stealthily decimating enemy teams with her ability to act again upon killing from the side or rear, making attack and crit rate boosting gear essential.

Gloria and Inanna are the pinnacle of support characters in Sword of Convallaria. Gloria can serve as a primary DPS and support, offering powerful Flag buffs, knockback capabilities, and substantial damage output. Inanna, the premier healer, ensures longevity in battle, summoning the Guard of the Princess to act as a controllable tank, absorbing hits and aiding in fulfilling battle objectives.

Edda, the first character added globally, has emerged as a potent support, enhancing magical teams with her debuffing prowess, especially beneficial in Weaponry Trial I for farming Legendary weapons. Cocoa, introduced in September 2024, not only excels as a tank but also provides versatile utility through heals, buffs, and debuffs, reaching her full potential at five stars.

Saffiyah and Auguste, long considered broken in CN and TW versions, are crucial pulls. Saffiyah's versatility as a Seeker, summoning minions, healing, and dealing damage while avoiding hits, makes her invaluable. Auguste stands out as the best auto-play character and the top Breaker DPS, fitting seamlessly into any team composition.

Dantalion and Magnus form a formidable duo, offering substantial attack buffs that can dominate PvE stages. Magnus is an excellent replacement for Maitha as a main tank, unless you've already secured Cocoa. Dantalion's kit, focused on enhancing his defensive and offensive capabilities, allows him to potentially turn the tide of battle even if the rest of the team falls.

Nonowill supports with buffs and debuffs while providing mobile attacks. Simona, added in late August 2024, is a battlemage adept at freezing and slowing enemies while dealing significant melee damage, ideal for a magic-based team alongside Edda.

Rawiyah (Alt) and Saffiyah (Alt) are strong additions to any team. Rawiyah (Alt) offers increased utility and high damage with AoE capabilities and self-healing, while Saffiyah (Alt), though not as powerful as her base version, effectively debuffs enemies while buffing allies and dealing damage.

B-Tier

Maitha serves as a versatile starter tank capable of dealing damage and self-healing. Rawiyah is another solid early-game DPS unit with AoE capabilities and self-healing, making her a great initial choice.

C-Tier

While C-tier characters may be considered less optimal, they are by no means ineffective. Teadon, for example, is a decent tank with high defense and frontline capabilities. These units can serve well in the early stages but are likely to be replaced by higher-tier pulls as you progress.

Best Epic Characters to Invest In

For those without immediate access to S-tier units, Epic characters can fill crucial roles in your party. Here are our top Epic picks:

Crimson Falcon has been a vital asset, carrying teams until higher-tier characters like Col are acquired. Her high damage output, mobility, and frequent Memory Shard availability make her an excellent early investment. Tempest and Stormbreaker are reliable DPS options, particularly without Gloria. Darklight Ice Priest and Abyss are strong mage choices, with the former offering ranged ice damage and control. Butterfly provides utility akin to Fire Emblem's Dancer, offering minor heals and positional swaps.

For tanking and healing, Suppression and Angel are top picks. While Suppression might be overlooked if you're committed to Maitha, Angel is essential without Inanna, providing robust healing to keep your team in the fight.
