In my guide, I’ll provide you with a tier list of the best characters in Blue Archive, including their attack and armor types, as well as the gear they can equip.

Blue Archive Tier List – Best Characters Ranked

S-Tier Characters

The best characters in the game have the highest critical damage and critical hit rate, as well as top accuracy, stability, and evasiveness. You can never go wrong with these, as they will win you every battle in any mode.

A-Tier Characters

I consider the following group of Blue Archive tier list characters very strong, with high enough stats to support any party. Although they’re not as strong as the S-tier characters and their equipment isn’t as impressive, they’ll generally do very well in any game mode.

B-Tier Characters

Finally, I selected these characters due to their accessibility, so even beginner players can learn how to play very well. However, although they have above-average skills, I wouldn’t chase them when rerolling for the best characters.
