AFK Journey Tier List

A disclaimer: Most AFK Journey heroes are usable. However, some are superior for high-level endgame content.

This tier list prioritizes versatility and performance across PvE, Dream Realm, and PvP.

S-Tier Characters

Lily May, a recent addition, is a must-have Wilder character, offering significant damage and utility. She excels in PvP, PvE, and Dream Realm.

Thoran remains the best F2P tank, especially before obtaining Phraesto. Reinier is the top support for both PvE and PvP (particularly Dream Realm and Arena).

Koko and Smokey & Meerky are essential supports for various game modes. Odie shines in Dream Realm and all PvE.

Eironn, along with Damien and Arden, forms a dominant Arena team.

Tasi (added November 2024) is a versatile Wilder character excelling in most game modes, offering strong crowd control.

Harak (Hypogean/Celestial) is a powerful Warrior whose strength increases with each enemy kill. Difficult for F2P players to acquire.

A-Tier Characters

Lyca and Vala effectively utilize the Haste stat, increasing attack frequency and speed. Lyca provides party-wide Haste, while Vala increases her own with each kill. Lyca struggles in PvP.

Antandra is a solid alternative tank to Thoran, offering taunts, shields, and crowd control.

Viperian complements a Graveborn core with energy drain and AoE attacks. He underperforms in Dream Realm.

Alsa (added May 2024) is a strong DPS mage, particularly effective with Eironn in PvP. She's easier to build than Carolina.

Phraesto (added June 2024) is a durable tank but lacks damage output.

Ludovic (added August 2024) is a strong Graveborn healer, working well with Talene and excelling in PvP.

Cecia, while a good Marksman, has decreased in value due to Lily May and Dream Realm meta shifts.

Sonja (added December 2024) significantly improves the Lightborne faction, offering respectable damage and utility across all game modes.

B-Tier Characters

B-Tier characters are suitable for filling roles but are less valuable for investment. Replace them with A or S-Tier heroes when possible.

Valen and Brutus are strong early-game DPS choices. Granny Dahnie is a decent alternative tank to Thoran and Antandra.

Arden and Damien are PvP meta mainstays but less useful in other modes.

Florabelle (added April 2024) is a secondary DPS supporting Cecia but isn't essential.

Soren (added May 2024) performs decently in PvP but is suboptimal elsewhere.

Korin's Dream Realm effectiveness has decreased.

C-Tier Characters

C-Tier characters are useful early-game but quickly become outclassed. Prioritize summoning better replacements.

Parisa, while offering powerful AoE, is quickly surpassed by other options. She has some niche PvP uses.

This tier list is subject to change with future hero additions and game updates.
