(Updated)Unofficial Item/Character Tier List

[Velcia]

Disclaimer: All Items were used on the best possible character for that item. All Items are Rated based on how they fit into a full build trying to make it to death as easy as possible, not their standalone damage. This is all my opinion.

Update: Everyone keeps mentioning Pasqualina as being rated to low. I understand the communities opinion on this and have decided to make a few adjustments. Also I Believe there to be a miscommunication about the weapons tier list. Just because something is A or B on the Un-upgraded list does not mean it competes with items in the same category of the Upgraded weapons of the same tier. I.e: Lightning ring and Death Spiral arnt even close, but both are A in their respective list. I will add a combined weapons tier list to clarify my opinion on weapons as a whole.

Update Two: Another miscommunication. These items are tested on both maps. Yes, Vanadlier is the best item in the game on map one, but far from the best on map two. that and its build path are why it is placed the way it is. The Character tier list is based on how much of a Unique gameplay effect they bring to the table and how powerful it is(Pasq Fans read this again.) Ask Yourself when reading the character tierlist "Does this character do something unique and how strong is it comparatively speaking?"

Update Three: Keeping in-line with Pasqs rating i've decided to treat gen to the same standard aswell. I've seen people talking about Vandalier being top DPS on the second map in a full build scenario. If you can post a full screenshot with all the items and character so I can test it Vandalier will be moved.

Update Four: Krochi/Thunder Loop

I am shocked that you rate Mortaccio over Pasqualina, I considered her to be one of the best characters to the point that I would pick someone else for runs, because starting with Runetracer was an almost guaranteed win, especially with her passive as it increased the damage those bolts do, by making them go further around the screen, and giving you that benefit without needing to spend the item slot on Bracers, so you can get the Tome/Spinach/Duplicator/Candelabra/Clover + whatever after.

Additionally, did you know that you can force a Stone Mask as your seventh item on the Library if you get six items, and then pick it from the floor. Really makes your gold rocket up if you're farming, so it's worth a note if you're on that stage.

I don't fully agree with the idea of evaluating weapons independent of their evolved forms.

You can also do the same with the Empty Tome; walk right for Stone Mask, left for Empty Tomes.

Clock lancet as A? Why?

Also I don't understand why peoples dislike Stone Mask/Attractor. Whole point for most of the game is to make money.

And Vandalier is the best end-game damage dealer. A bit irritating to build, but when done you can afk last minutes on Green Acres / Hyper (unfortunately it kills fps)

Heaven sword is the best, but i would argue that Vandalier is vastly superior to Hellfire any day. Also Heaven Sword only on some characters and with duplicator, if you dont run duplicator other options are superior to Heaven sword.

Also disagreeing with Peachone and Ebony wings on D. I have finished green arcres hyper runs were i couldn`'t make vandalier and a single bird is good enough. Also clock lancet is not needed,like ever, if you dont want to get a few more seconds at the end.

Garlic, Pentagram and Lightning are an E in my book, absolute noob traps, good for the memes, not needed in any serious run.

Armor should be higher, Spellbinder lower. Clower gets an S, Spinach an A.

Pasqualina over Poe any day of the week. You forgot the ghost character which is actual an S,too.

The rest looks good.

Stone mask is a free item on library, so its just an extra bonus, never something you take as a primary item.


This list in general is pretty F tier.

I know - pretty visible on my screenshot. That's why it is A tier.
Why this list is F tier? I disagree in some points but definitely not in all of them.

Porta is pretty ridiculous with vandelier and death spiral. I agree that +30% aoe doesn't mean much with most weapons, but vandelier does get significantly stronger when the AOE increases.

If you use weapons that need projectile speed, then Pasqualina is A tier.

Vandalier below Heaven sword...
Santa water below clock and l.ring.... literally listed as the same as garlic lmfao..
Clerici same tier as poe and imelda..
Pasq, which starts with an S tier weapon, listed as F tier, even though it has a much needed proj speed stat, which makes the weapon 10 times better...

how the ♥♥♥♥ am i not supposed to see this as a joke?
this is just at a glance.

F tier character btw.

If you play Dommario, who is hands down the most busted character, the Runetracer is easily the best item in the game. Not second or third. The issue with tier lists is they are subbjective to which character you play. Some characters make some ♥♥♥♥ items busted.

Yeah Dommario = Domination. Just did a run with him w Runetracer and Holy Sword, massacred everything in the periphery, almost off-screen. Oh and a ring of never ending holy Santa water for them to die in if they made it past that. Stood still from minute 25:00 until death. Basically rendered Vespers obsolete until the very last wave of glowing bats.

I get wanted to start with runetracer, but ive tested it on both mort and dom and its just much better to find it then to start with it. the speed bonus is just to weak.

Clock Lancet is the only possible way to kill death, its also quite good survivablity. It was the item I struggled placing the longest. I do think I may have overrated it myself. I tested Vandalier on all the best characters for it and its consistently third or fourth highest DPS. I rate it so lowly because its the hardest item to build up and I have died trying to get to Vandalier so I think I placed it fairly. It does belong in my "Top Build" still not number one sadly.

Good Feedback, I do know about the hidden character I just havent gotten him so I didnt want to rank things I didnt know about. Raw DPS Hellfire out does Vandalier and its much easier to obtain more reliably. Garlic I rate purely for afking, just a lot of QoL there for me and lightning actually does 1.5K DPS late game which is pretty competitive with some upgraded items. Clock Lancet as I said to someone else is the item I struggled ranking the most. its niche use is so unique I may have overrated it. Clover I almost put S but you really only need to take it for sword and I didnt want to rank it on the power of its combo and more on what it brings to the table. Spinach is just straight up the best support item. You want it every build and it effects every weapon. On Pasqualina I personally think the community overrates her so much. Poe Actually brings alot of QoL for people that want an easy start and good afk potential. Thanks for the great Feedback!

[Garou]

Yeah Pentagram does more harm than good for sure. Maybe a rework is needed in a future patch to make it useful
