This comprehensive approach ensures accurate rankings that reflect real gameplay effectiveness rather than just theoretical potential.
S-Tier characters represent the absolute best investments in Outerplane, excelling across multiple game modes and providing unmatched value for your resources.
Best Use: Guild raids and PvP focusing on single-target damage
Team Synergy: Works well with Valentine for crit buffs and Saeran for healing
Investment Value: High, due to burst damage scaling and exclusive gear
Moonlight Chaser Luna specializes in delivering powerful single-target bursts that make her perfect for boss fights and PvP encounters. Her skills focus on hitting one enemy hard, quickly bringing down high-priority targets. On top of her burst damage, she weakens foes by lowering their attack and speed, which helps control tough battles.
Her ability to excel in both guild raids and PvP makes her one of the most versatile damage dealers available. When paired with Valentine's critical hit buffs and Saeran's healing support, she becomes nearly unstoppable in most team compositions.
Best Use: PvP and challenging PvE content where enemies use buffs and shields
Team Synergy: Complements damage dealers like Noa for offense and Veronica for defense
Investment Value: Moderate to high, benefits significantly from skill upgrades
Gnosis Dahlia shines by stripping enemy buffs and shields, making her a strong counter against defensive teams in PvP. Her skills remove immunities and protective barriers that often frustrate offensive strategies. Along with her buff removal, she deals solid area damage that quickly clears waves of enemies, making her useful in high-difficulty PvE as well.
In the current meta where many teams rely on defensive buffs and shields, Gnosis Dahlia's ability to nullify these advantages makes her invaluable for competitive play.
Best Use: Excels in PvE for AoE clears and boss fights, PvP for turn control and burst setups
Team Synergy: Works best with high-damage Strikers and supported by Tanks and Healers
Investment Value: Extremely high, exclusive gear boosts crit damage and buff duration
Valentine thrives as a high-impact Ranger, delivering powerful damage while boosting her allies' performance. Her Fire element grants a natural edge against Earth foes, and she elevates team output with crit buffs and turn order boosts. From sweeping PvE waves to outpacing PvP opponents, her mix of offense and support keeps her valuable from early game to endgame.
Her ultimate ability "My Bloody Valentine" is an AoE damaging skill that decreases the priority of all enemies by 40%, giving your team a significant tactical advantage in both PvE and PvP scenarios.
Best Use: Ideal for PvE survival in dungeons, tower, and bosses; strong in PvP for countering burst teams Team Synergy: Synergizes with DPS units and benefits from Healers like Mene or Saeran
Investment Value: Very high, exclusive gear boosts barrier strength and HP
Veronica stands out as a dependable Defender, shielding allies with durable barriers, cleansing harmful effects, and enabling extra damage through dual attacks. Her Water element gives her an advantage over Fire enemies, and her mix of protection and utility makes her vital in demanding battles.
Her basic attack is a single-target damaging skill that can inflict a Taunt debuff on enemies for a turn. Moreover, if she has an Increased Defense buff while using the basic attack, Veronica also triggers a dual attack with the ally having the highest Attack, making her both defensive and offensive.
Best Use: PvE (tower, dungeons) and PvP to keep teams alive
Team Synergy: Supports DPS units and protects tanks like Veronica
Investment Value: High, healing and cleanse scale strongly
Mene is a reliable healer who excels at keeping your team healthy and clearing debuffs. Her strong AoE healing restores health to everyone on the field, which scales well with gear and skill levels. Besides healing, she cleanses harmful debuffs, which is crucial for surviving tough boss fights and long battles.
In a meta where status effects and debuffs can determine the outcome of battles, Mene's ability to provide both healing and cleansing makes her an essential part of any serious team composition.
A-Tier characters are highly effective but may require specific team setups or gear to shine. They're excellent substitutes if S-tier units are unavailable and can still carry teams through most content.
Best Use: Guild raids and PvE boss fights, situational PvP
Team Synergy: Synergizes with Valentine for crit buffs and Mene for healing
Investment Value: Moderate, scales well but less versatile than S-tier DPS
Aer stands out as a powerful single-target damage dealer, especially suited for boss fights where focused damage is key. Her skills not only deliver high damage to enemies but also provide useful speed buffs to her team and can stun opponents, adding control to her offense.
While she may not have the same versatility as top-tier S-Tier characters, Aer's focused damage output makes her a valuable asset in specific scenarios, particularly against single high-value targets.
Best Use: PvP and high-difficulty PvE where enemy buffs matter
Team Synergy: Pairs well with DPS units and tank Veronica
Investment Value: Moderate, situational but improves with gear
Stella brings a unique edge to healing by combining buff-stealing with cleansing, making her a versatile asset in both PvP and challenging PvE content. Her ability to steal enemy buffs can flip the momentum of PvP battles, while her cleanse skill removes harmful debuffs and grants counterattacks to her allies.
In the current meta where buff management is crucial, Stella's ability to simultaneously heal and disrupt enemy strategies makes her a valuable addition to many team compositions.
Best Use: PvE (dungeons, towers) and guild raids for sustained healing
Team Synergy: Complements DPS units and tanks like Veronica
Investment Value: High, healing and AP buffs scale strongly
Saeran excels as a healer focused on keeping key units alive with strong single-target healing. Beyond just restoring health, she speeds up the flow of battle by boosting an ally's Action Points by 25 percent, allowing them to take their turn faster.
Her ultimate ability "Arise" instantly refills the targeted ally's HP to 100%, reduces their skill cooldown by two turns, and grants them 100% Priority, making her invaluable for sustaining your main damage dealers through long, difficult battles.
Best Use: PvE wave clears and guild raids; situational PvP
Team Synergy: Supports Valentine's crit buffs and Mene's healing
Investment Value: Moderate, effective but less impactful than S-tier mages
Maxwell makes a strong impact with his ability to deal area damage to multiple enemies at once. His attacks come with debuffs that reduce enemy defense and speed, softening targets for your team to finish off quickly. He is a great choice for clearing waves in PvE and guild raids.
His ultimate ability "Bless All Mages" penetrates 30% of the target's defense when he has maxed out his "Revelation of Truth" stacks, making him particularly effective against high-defense enemies.
B-Tier characters can be effective in specific situations or during early/mid-game progression but generally lack the versatility or power of higher-tier units.
Alice is a great damage dealer that can deal good damage, but lacks anything extra that many of the other DPS in the tiers above bring to the table. Her basic attack is a plain single-target damaging ability that also provides her with an Evasion buff for two turns. She deals AoE damage and removes a buff from all enemies with her second active ability "Hatter's Teacup."
As the main protagonist of Outerplane, Bell Cranel settles in this tier. His usability as a Defender is there, especially for anyone who did not choose Veronica in the selective summons or hasn't acquired her from any other means. His basic attack "Shield Rush" is a single-target damaging ability that can decrease defense for two turns.
Cindy can be used until mid-game as well if the player is not able to summon a better healer. All of them can and should be replaced as soon as you get better rarity characters from the gacha system.
Eva provides situational utility but lacks the consistent performance of higher-tier characters. She can be useful in specific team compositions but generally requires more investment to achieve comparable results.
C-Tier characters are generally only suitable for beginners to understand the meta and familiarize themselves with the gameplay. They should be replaced as soon as better options become available.
Claire is one of the weakest characters in the game, only suitable for the earliest stages of gameplay. She lacks the damage output and utility needed for mid-to-late game content.
Lily can be used until mid-game if the player is not able to summon a better healer, but should be replaced immediately when better options become available.
Lisha provides minimal utility and damage output, making her a poor investment for long-term progression.
Tanya is another early-game character that quickly becomes obsolete as players acquire more powerful units from the gacha system.
In PvE content, characters with strong AoE capabilities and sustained damage output excel. Units like Maxwell, Valentine, and Moonlight Chaser Luna perform exceptionally well in dungeons, towers, and story modes where clearing multiple enemies quickly is essential.
Healers like Mene and Saeran are particularly valuable in extended PvE battles where status effects and sustained damage can wear down teams without proper support.
PvP requires a different approach, focusing on burst damage, crowd control, and strategic buff/debuff management. Gnosis Dahlia's buff removal, Valentine's priority manipulation, and Veronica's defensive capabilities make them standout choices for competitive play.
Characters who can disrupt enemy strategies while maintaining their own team's survivability tend to perform best in PvP scenarios.
Guild raids demand both single-target burst damage for boss fights and AoE capabilities for add clearing. Moonlight Chaser Luna excels at boss damage, while Maxwell handles wave management. Support characters that can sustain the team through prolonged battles are essential for success.
Focus your resources on S-Tier characters first, as they provide the best return on investment and will remain relevant throughout your gameplay journey. Exclusive Equipment should be prioritized for these units to maximize their effectiveness.
Free-to-play players should focus on acquiring and building versatile units that perform well across multiple game modes. Characters like Saeran (available through beginner missions) and other free units provide excellent value without requiring premium currency.
A well-rounded team should include:
Consider elemental advantages when building teams:
Build teams with clear role specialization rather than trying to make every character a hybrid. Specialized units generally perform their intended functions more effectively than jack-of-all-trades characters.
The current meta has shifted significantly with recent updates and new character releases:
Viella, released in late October 2025, grants immunity to allies and increases team damage through Poison mechanics. This has created new team-building possibilities around poison-based compositions.
Recent patches have adjusted several characters' performance, with particular attention to:
S-Tier characters excel across multiple game modes, provide unique utility, and maintain their value throughout the entire game. They typically have strong synergy with popular team compositions and scale well with investment.
The tier list updates monthly with new character releases and balance patches. Major meta shifts can occur with significant updates, so it's important to stay current with the latest changes.
Limited characters often have unique abilities that can shift the meta, but evaluate their long-term value versus your current roster needs. Consider their versatility and how they fit into your existing team compositions.
New players should focus on a balanced team with 1 DPS, 1 Tank, and 2 Support/Healers. Free units like Saeran provide excellent early-game value while you build your ideal composition.
Exclusive Equipment significantly enhances character performance, often unlocking their full potential. Prioritize acquiring and upgrading Exclusive Equipment for your S-Tier units first.
Light and Dark elements generally have the most versatility since they're neutral against Earth, Water, and Fire. However, elemental advantage is still crucial for specific matchups, so maintain a balanced roster.
While B-Tier characters can perform adequately with significant investment, they generally lack the ceiling of higher-tier units. It's more efficient to focus resources on S and A-Tier characters for long-term progression.
This Outerplane tier list provides a comprehensive ranking of all heroes based on their current meta performance, versatility, and investment value. S-Tier characters like Moonlight Chaser Luna, Gnosis Dahlia, and Valentine represent the best investments for both new and veteran players, offering exceptional performance across all game modes.
Remember that tier lists are guidelines, not absolute rules. Your personal playstyle, existing roster, and preferred game modes should all influence your character building decisions. Stay updated with the latest patches and community discussions to adapt your strategies as the meta evolves.
