How to use this tier list
Due to the unique game mechanics of Brown Dust 2, every character has its unique uses depending on their AOE coverage, special effects, turns available to set up and so on. For many characters, you will need to use all of their costumes together to reach their full power.
This tier list ranks characters only by their maximum damage potential, and assumes that you have all of their costumes maxed out and are facing the right kind of enemy formation to achieve the max possible damage. This tier list does not take into account AOE, turns required to set up, survivability, or support power (see the supporter/utility tabs instead).
The tier list is ranked on the following basis:
- S Tier: Characters that have costumes with attacks that are significantly above average (e.g. >1000% multiplier with strong offensive stats) and/or have costume combos that can boost their own damage (e.g. Whitebolt Yuri + Comeback Idol Yuri). These will usually be the best choices for end game content.
- A Tier: Characters who have good offensive stats and high damage costumes skills. Although their max potential damage output is not as good as S-tier attackers, they are still often used in late game content depending on the enemy formation and weaknesses.
- B Tier: Characters with low power offensive skills and/or low offensive stats. They are not recommended for use as your main attackers in for late game content.
- C Tier: Characters who deal low damage, and are not mainly used as attackers (they have other uses though!).
- Not attackers: This character's role is not as an attacker at all (check the supporter tab instead).
You will need attackers from all elements in order to clear difficult late game content. Therefore, this tier list will help you pick which costumes deal the best damage in each element.
Legend
A down arrow (↓) indicates that the character has very niche uses, and not recommended to invest in for beginners. E.g. Ventana only works well against single target enemies with Taunt or Concentrated Fire applied. Nartas only works well against physical types, and also has a long cooldown with no followup costumes.
An up arrow (↑) indicates that the character is particularly recommended for having useful utility in PVE game modes (other than just good damage).
(LC) means that that the character is a limited collaboration character that is not available in the normal draw pool.
