Final Fantasy Brave Exvius FFBE Unit Tier List & Ranking Guide
This tier list is created by categorizing all units into different tiers, with S-Tier units being the strongest and D-Tier units being the weakest. We considered various factors that affect to their rankings. Some of the factors are as follows:
- Stats – The base stats of any unit are the starting point for determining how strong they are in their base form and how much stronger they can become once fully awakened and maxed.
- Utility – More crucial than how well a character performs as a team member is valuing their core strengths.
- Role – The units were ranked based on their performance in their respective roles.
S-tier units
This tier of units includes some of the most desired and highlighted units in the community due to their extremely high base stats and solo potential. They are extremely powerful on their own and do not require the assistance of other characters to shine on the battlefield.
