Challenge Quests: It’s impossible to avoid that far more time is spent farming in GO, but CQs are still important. Here, we’ll spend time evaluating how useful a niche is rather than applying a blanket solution.


It’s not really feasible to make a list that ranks the way everyone would like, and many lists try to strike a balance between multiple concerns without explaining which things they weighted more heavily. This helps you to understand what was and wasn’t under consideration when placing characters and avoids troubled understanding when different people want lists that focus on power in a vacuum, others consider teams and whether there is a use for the character, etc.

Here, we’ll cover the broad decision making principles for the list. Rider Tier List MethodologyĪ lot of tier lists cause arguments because their authors don’t make clear what does and doesn’t influence a placement decision. It even features some frontrunners for the best non-support characters in the game. It’s a pretty stark contrast to its fellow cavalry class Assassin, almost every Rider is at least a little above average with just a few bad apples. Rider as a class is fairly stacked, with lots of good options. The best Riders in Fate/Grand Order are Ozymandias, Ivan the Terrible, Francis Drake, Kintoki (rider) and Achilles. It’s a question of how hard you want to work or how efficient you want your clears to be, not whether you can at all. So where other games make tier listing a necessity so you don’t invest in a character that just can’t do content, here it helps you understand who’s weaker, though most characters are still viable. Grand Order has a bit of an interesting relationship with this as we don’t have nearly the power creep problem other games tend to have. Particularly when it comes to high rarity rolls that can be extremely hard to chase. Players often wonder which characters are stronger in gacha games.
