• C-Tier

S-Tier

S-Tier Agents excel in their roles and synergize effectively with others.

• Miyabi: Exceptional Frost damage dealer. Requires strategic play to maximize her potential, but devastating in the right hands.

• Jane Doe: A superior version of Piper, boasting significantly higher Assault Anomaly Crit damage. While Anomaly units are generally slower, her damage output places her among the top DPS.

• Yanagi: Specializes in triggering Disorder, requiring only an existing Anomaly effect on the enemy, making her a powerful partner for Anomaly-focused teams.

• Zhu Yuan: High-damage DPS utilizing Shot Shells. Synergizes well with Stun and Support characters, particularly Qingyi and Nicole in version 1.1.

• Caesar: Redefines Defensive Agents with exceptional protection, powerful buffs, debuffs, and crowd control capabilities. Scales with Impact, allowing for easy enemy stuns.

• Qingyi: A versatile Stunner, excelling in teams with Attack Agents. Rapid Daze application and significant damage multipliers against stunned enemies.

• Lighter: Stun Agent with significant buffs, particularly effective with Fire and Ice characters.

• Lycaon: Ice-based Stunner who reduces enemy Ice resistance and boosts ally Daze DMG, making him essential for Ice teams.

• Ellen: Ice-elemental Attack Agent with exceptional synergy with Lycaon and Soukaku, delivering substantial damage, especially with EX Special Attacks and Ultimates.

• Harumasa: Free-to-play Electric Attack Agent who delivers high damage with proper setup.

• Soukaku: Support Agent who buffs Ice Anomaly and provides significant Ice buffs to Ice-elemental allies.

• Rina: Support Agent who deals damage while granting PEN (defense ignore) to allies, and buffs Shock reactions.

A-Tier

A-Tier Agents are strong in specific team compositions but may lack the overall versatility of S-Tier Agents.

• Nicole: Ether Support who pulls enemies and boosts Ether DMG, excelling with AoE units but less effective with non-Ether DPS.

• Seth: Shielder and Support, effective for Anomaly DPS but less versatile than top-tier buffers.

• Lucy: Support unit providing ATK buffs and off-field DMG, with increased DPS through synergy.

• Piper: Relies heavily on her EX Special Attack for high Assault Anomaly damage, synergizing well with other Anomaly units.

• Grace: Strong Anomaly builder, particularly effective with other Anomaly units to trigger Disorder, though less impactful with the expansion of Anomaly Agents.

• Koleda: Reliable Fire/Stun character, synergizing well with other Fire units, particularly Ben.

• Anby: Reliable Stunner with quick combos and bullet deflection, but easily interrupted compared to other Stunners.

• Soldier 11: Straightforward Fire damage dealer with high damage output.

B-Tier

B-Tier Agents have some utility but are outperformed by others in their roles.

• Ben: Defensive character with parry and punish mechanics, but slow and limited team benefits.

• Nekomata: AoE damage dealer who relies heavily on team support, currently hindered by limited synergy options.

C-Tier

C-Tier Agents currently offer limited value compared to other options.

• Corin: Physical damage dealer outclassed by other Physical Attack units.

• Billy: Attack character with limited damage output despite high attack frequency.

• Anton: Electric Attack unit with interesting Shock DMG potential but low DPS and single-target focus.
