Lots of options

Solo Leveling: Arise is currently preparing for its half-year anniversary, and you’re likely going to get a host of free pulls by playing the game.

Netmarble has added plenty of popular characters from the Solo Leveling universe to the game, and almost all of them can be obtained from the standard banner using Custom Draw tickets. That said, not every character is equally effective, and it’s essential to focus your resources on characters that are higher up on the current meta.

Complete Solo Leveling: Arise tier list

To rank the characters, I have gone with four distinct tiers.

  • S-tier: You can’t go wrong with these characters.
  • A-tier: Pretty close to S-tier superstars, but will need a few duplicates to power up.
  • B-tier: Okayish characters that have niche uses.
  • C-tier: Starter characters who are not worth the resources.

In Solo Leveling: Arise, the content branches off into different parts. Some characters, who might not be great in the overall meta, could shine in a specific mode. Additionally, modes like Instance Dungeons and Encore Missions have elemental weaknesses. The same goes for Battlefield of Chaos as well. In such cases, a character who matches the elemental weakness of the boss should always be preferred (unless it’s very weak in terms of artifacts/weapons).

I have also mentioned the A-copy requirements (duplicates) of a character. You’ll eventually need the required number of duplicates to make the characters play to their true potential.

Solo Leveling: Arise S-tier list

  • Alicia Blanche (A1)
  • Amiya Mirei (A3)
  • Cha-Hae-In (A3)
  • Emma Laurent (A1)
  • Meilin Fisher (A1)
  • Gina (A3)
  • Min Byung-Gu (A1)
  • Thomas Andre (A3)

Mirei is almost mandatory in every good WOBL team, so it’s smart to invest your resources in here.

Solo Leveling: Arise A-tier list

  • Go Gunhee (A3)
  • Isla Wright (A3)
  • Han Se-Mi (A1)
  • Baek Yonhoo (A3)
  • Charlotte (A3)
  • Harper (A3)
  • Choi Jong-In (A1)
  • Yoo Soohyun (A1)
  • Lee Bora
  • Seo Jiwoo

Solo Leveling: Arise B-tier list

  • Baek Yoonho
  • Lim Tar-Gyu (A3)
  • Hwang Dongsoo (A3)

Solo Leveling: Arise C-tier list

  • Anna Ruiz
  • Park Haejin
  • Kim Chul
  • Yoo Jinho
  • Hwang Dongsuk
  • Kang Taeshik
  • Lee Joohee
  • Nam Chae-Young
  • Han Song-Yi
  • Park Beom-Shik
  • Jo Kyuhwan
  • Song Chiyul

The C-tier consists of SR characters, and I don’t believe they are worth your investment. Anna Ruiz and Park have viability once you take them up to A5, and unlock their signature weapons. However, these characters are simply not good enough, and all of them have better replacements in the form of SSR characters.

Solo Leveling: Arise‘s next upcoming character is expected to be Thomas Andre, and I will be very surprised if he’s anything less than S-tier.
