AFK Arena Tier List: All Characters Ranked [2023]

In our AFK Arena Tier List, we are going to rank all the characters from best to worst. This will help you choose the right ones.

AFK Arena is a mobile video game developed by Lilith Games for iOS and Android. The game has more than 75 characters for players to choose from called heroes, and some of them are from different franchises. Because the number of heroes is high, a lot of players often get confused while choosing heroes for their match.

If you’re one of them, then you don’t need to worry about it anymore. This is because we are going to write down a detailed AFK Arena tier list in which we are going to rank all the available heroes from best to worst. This will help you decide whether you should be choosing a hero for your match or not. 

Key Highlights
  • Following a ‘more playable characters, more fun’ style, AFK Arena packs for its players an up to 75 characters cast.
  • The game attributes its characters with the name “Heroes,” which we rank based on their unique Skills, Talents, and, of course, what matters the most–efficiency across all AFK Arena situations.
  • Since AFK arena has two additional modes, Abyssal Expedition and Guild Hunt, besides the primary campaign, overall character performances in every mode are noted. 

  • AFK Arena heroes that are the most viable amongst all include Eluard, Freaf, Merlin, Ainz Ooal Gown, Lucretia, Mulan, Lyca, Ferael, Audrae, Khazard, Eironn, Zaphrael, Athalia, and Silas

  • Hogan, Silvina, Ira, Ulmus, Angelo, Arden, Niru, Mirael, Seirus, Oscar, Eletha, Walker, Morvus, Antandra, Thane, and Rigby, on the split hand, possess a very feeble overall profile.
  • Choosing the best characters will ensure you win not only the main AFK Arena game but also the secondary mode with style.

We are going to place all the heroes into five different tiers. The strongest heroes will earn a spot in the S-Tier category, while the rest of them will be placed in the remaining tiers. So without any further due, let’s get started.

We recommend pairing Morrown with characters that are good in terms of support so they stand a better chance on the battlefield via his damage controls while he doesn’t have to take care of health.

FactionLightbearer 
ClassMage

Scarlet

The intelligence-based AFK Arena fighting unit takes pride in executing one of the best shows of magic in the game. She lets the entire team, and of course, herself too gain energy in every enemy downed. Simultaneously Scarlet makes use of her Ultimate to debuff and inflict damage on the opponents. Her health, however, is a factor to consider before making a final decision. 

FactionLightbearer 
ClassMage

Merek

Merek is a rather subtle hero that doesn’t pack a lot of damaging or crowd-control skills for the lot. Nevertheless, you will find him a decent healer who is proficient in defending himself and the entire team. Where it falls short is providing enough damage to make his place in a team of top-ranked choices. Count on him only if your plate is already full of damage-dealing units. 

FactionLightbearer 
Class

Ulric

This AFK Arena character has special abilities to repel enemies marching towards the ally team while also rendering little damage to them. However, keep Ulric in close range and densely covered with high-damage dealers since he offers limited damage, and his skills have small attack radii. 

FactionLightbearer 
Class

Thali

This character’s execution depends mainly on her frenzy state. When active, the state lets Thali deal a decent amount of damage to enemies while her allies enjoy stat-boosting effects thanks to the unit’s Pyromaniac skill. As soon as the state finishes, Thali is the most vulnerable unit around therefore being one of the most vulnerable characters in AFK Arena. 

FactionMauler
ClassMage

Alaro

Alaro is a Mauler who is known for his ability to heal himself and inflict massive damage. His ultimate ability deals huge amounts of damage and heals him for every hit he lands. Nevertheless, Alaro lacks CC and can be easily focused down in battles, consequently causing him to rank this down.

FactionMauler 
ClassSupport

Granit

Yet another Mauler of the B-Tier. Granit the Tank is proficient in summoning a shield for himself and all the team members at the right time. The character packs more than a few ways to control and weaken all bulky enemies before they charge back while also outputting occasional attacks. The damage dealt is too weak, resulting in Granit’s low rank. 

FactionMauler
ClassTank 

Thesku

This one pretty much performs like Granit having the ability to debuff and control opponents through various unique ways. Thesku can also render over time damage effects however, note that it mostly proves insignificant in front of bulky enemies, leaving him vulnerable on the battlefield. 

FactionMauler
ClassMage

Golus

This one’s a solid AFK Arena character in terms of durability who will eliminate significant amounts of damage as long as he is at low health. Yes, you heard that right. Low HP is, in fact, Golus’ strength which can take a team to win AFK if a good overall team composition is ensured. Golus can also stun and knock back nearby enemies to support melee allies. 

FactionMauler 
ClassTank

Melusina

This mage is unique from the rest of the AFK Arena heroes since she is a master of AoE attacks. Melusina is great in silencing foes too, proving to be an overall useful pick only if players are ready to overlook her lack of mobility, which we don’t think is a lot to worry about when wishing for a decent mage. 

FactionDimensional 
ClassMage

Vedan

Vedan primarily functions through his life-leech skills. The skills let Vedan recover energy for himself and all allies by draining health from the enemies that are hit. Vedan also provides buffs to all allies and can make bats out of swarms via his “Dark Swarm” ability which then deals damage as NPCs.

FactionGraveborn 
ClassTank

Fane

The character weakens enemies while ensuring all her allies are fully recovered and buffed through the onboard Soul Impaler and Prisoner of Despair skills. What’s more? Fame also holds the key to disabling the strongest hero from the opposition ranks via her Ultimate Malign Judgement. Nonetheless, you can only get this at the expense of limited output damage and defenses. 

FactionGraveborn 
ClassSupport

Treznor

The Graveborn-rated ranger Treznor masters explosive area damage and also knows how to charge back at the enemy on the right occasion. His actions cause disarray and chaos in the opposition ranks giving the high-damage dealers of the ally team a chance to factor in as much damage as possible. 

FactionGraveborn 
ClassRanger

Astar

Astar is a decent damage dealer plus healer dealer who uses Firepower to do it all. Nevertheless, she is at a scarce health reserve that does fade most of her high points but they are still worth considering. For instance, Astar’s Aura of Fire ability makes allies take 40% less damage than usual.  

FactionWilder
ClassSupport 

Oku

Due to his lack of attack, Oku doesn’t stand enough chance of survival against bulky damage-dealing enemies. Nevertheless, the character is still a nice tanking unit to have on a team. Via his Ultimate ability, Oku can do some crowd-controlling while your main heroes are busy dealing direct damage. Furthermore, his abilities can also render healing effects to allies and debuff effects on the opponent’s team.

C-Tier Heroes

AFK Arena Tier List
C-Tier Heroes

C-Tier heroes in our AFK Arena tier list are some of the weakest heroes. They always end up becoming a burden on their teammates as they don’t know how to deal with situations alone. 

Satrana

Satrana is a Mage who has Firedance as her ultimate ability. This allows her to start her popular Fire Dance, during which her attacks deal 80% damage to all enemies. The final attack, however, does 200% damage. When dancing, Satrana’s enemies can not attack her or put control effects on her. 

FactionMauler
ClassMage

Anoki

Anoki is a Tank hero who can summon a bunch of Iron-Jaw beasts who will destroy everything in their path. Every enemy that gets in the way of these beasts receives 50% damage after getting hit. This ability is perfect for times when your team is outnumbered. 

FactionMauler
ClassTank

Raku

Raku is a Ranged hero who uses a slingshot against his enemies. While this may sound weak, the attacks made through the slingshot are powerful. Raku’s ultimate ability lets him target the weakest enemy and he then shoots them with his slingshot, dealing 330% damage. Furthermore, the attack also stuns the target for four seconds. 

FactionWilder
ClassRanger

Raine

Raine can place a Bounty Mark over her enemies through her Cripple ultimate ability. Whenever she eliminates a marked enemy, she receives 80 energy points per second for 10 seconds. This means that she receives around 800 energy points for eliminating her target. However, keep in mind that that Bounty Mark ends up increasing the damage of the enemy’s attack by 15%. 

FactionLightbearer
ClassSupport

Gorvo

Gorvo’s ultimate ability isn’t that special, but it still lets him deal a decent amount of damage to his enemies. When used, Gorvo roars in the direction of his targets and deals 130% damage to them. Furthermore, he can also taunt some enemies through it if they are within the roar’s radius. 

FactionWilder
ClassTank

Vurk

Vurk has a Crossbow in his arsenal through which he can target multiple enemies at once. His Mania ultimate ability lets him run wild for 15 seconds. During this time, he fires bolts at multiple enemies, with each hit dealing 100% damage. 

FactionMauler
ClassRanger

Lucius

Lucius is a Tank hero capable of taking care of his allies. By using his ultimate ability called Heaven’s Protection, Lucius can grant his teammates a divine shield that will protect them from incoming attacks. This is perfect for times when your teammates need to catch their breath before engaging the enemy again. 

FactionLightbearer
ClassTank

Torne

Torne is yet another unique and creepy-looking hero on our AFK Arena tier list. He can bring out bone spikes on the ground for eight seconds, which deal 300% damage to all enemies that walk through them. He can do this by using his Piercing Bones ultimate ability. 

FactionGraveborn
ClassTank

Baden

Baden is yet another hero who can summon someone else besides him to help him take down enemies. His Phantom Assassin’s ultimate ability lets him deploy a Phantom on the battlefield, who will attack every enemy in its sight. The best part is that the Phantom will not disappear with time and will go away after getting eliminated. 

FactionGraveborn
ClassWarrior

Khasos

Khasos uses a pair of axes to take down his enemies. However, in combat, he can bring out more of them. For instance, his Spinning Obliteration ultimate ability lets him throw a total of five axes towards different enemies, with each dealing 220% damage. 

FactionMauler
ClassWarrior

Ukyo

Ukyo is a samurai who, just like other samurai, uses a sword in combat. By using his ultimate ability, he can perform 10 quick yet powerful attacks on multiple enemies. With each hit, Ukyo deals 70% damage. The best part is that he sends the enemies flying into the air with the final attack. 

FactionDimensional
ClassWarrior

Ogi

Another Wilder tank of the tier, Ogi comes with a full lifesteal and health tank and also helps improve it for the allies. Besides durability, Ogi can manifest a spectacular show of repelling back enemies from charging continuously on the ally sides while the Ultimate ability “Resilience” shields the rest of the incomings. Damage output is very low, however. 

FactionWilder
ClassTank

Zikis

Zikis offers a good combination of defense support and crowd control to the team. He also masters continuous dealing of negative effects onto all enemies thanks to all explosive abilities onboard like the Burning Sight, Languid Eye, and Corrosive Indolence. 

 

FactionHypogean
ClassRanger 

Arkadios

Arkadios act exactly the same as Zikis besides offering the added benefit of pinpointing the most vulnerable opposing heroes and knocking them down. Having Arkadios in the team will ensure your main heroes don’t get distracted by the little evils around but that’s not so worth compromising on the offered drawbacks. 

FactionMauler
Class

Sezis

From burst damage to debuffs, basic attacks, and large area effects, Sezis is an amazing damage dealer and also offers more than enough crowd control. He primarily focuses on dealing stun effects with the various types of damage on board. Nevertheless, his low health pool makes him look squishy in front of the other stronger choices available. 

FactionGraveborn 
Class

Ankhira

Thanks to her ability to increase the attack and critical strike ratings for herself and the allies, Ankhira can make up for a decent buffing role in your team. Anyways she keeps her primary focus on dealing status effects and debuffing her foes’ ratings. “Venomous Bite”, her Ultimate is famous for inflicting the most damage on the opponent with the highest HP. 

FactionMauler
Class

D-Tier Heroes 

AFK Arena Tier List
D-Tier Heroes

These are the weakest heroes available in AFK Arena. There is no reason for you to choose them for a match. 

Ira

Ira is yet another hero on our AFK Arena tier list who can use a bow to take down her opponents. Her ultimate ability, Hail of Arrows, lets her send 10 arrows towards a large group of enemies, with each arrow dealing 80% damage. 

FactionWilder
ClassN-A

Oscar

Oscar can create a magical aura on the ground by throwing four knives on the ground. While standing inside the aura, his Haste is increased by 100 points. Furthermore, all enemies nearby the aura receive 270% AoE damage. The aura remains for 11 seconds and then disappears. 

FactionLightbearer
ClassRanger

Silvina

Silvina is an Assassin who knows how to perform a kill. Her ultimate ability is called Fatal Strike and it allows her to get behind her enemy’s back within an instant. She will then deliver a powerful blow that will deal 110% damage. Keep in mind that when the ability is used, Silvina will target the enemy who has the highest level of energy. 

FactionGraveborn
ClassAssassin 

Thane

Thane uses a powerful sword in combat and most of his attacks revolve around it as well. As for his ultimate ability, it is called Eviscerate and it lets him attack multiple targets 7 times. With each hit, Thane deals 80% damage. The best part is that this ability also prevents Thane from taking any damage from the enemy attacks. 

FactionLightbearer
ClassRanger

Hogan

Hogan is a Tank hero who, just like Thane, uses a sword against his enemies. The only difference is that Hogan’s sword looks huge as compared to Thane’s. As for his ultimate ability, it allows him to perform a powerful attack on his targets through which he deals 200% damage. 

FactionLightbearer
ClassTank

Niru

Niru’s Death Call ultimate ability is pretty straightforward. In fact, it might be the most simple ultimate ability in AFK Arena. Upon using it, Niru can deal 220% damage to the weakest enemy. 

FactionGraveborn
ClassTank

Angelo

Angelo can stop his enemies from performing any attacks by using his Love and Peace ultimate ability. The targets can not perform any attack for four seconds. Furthermore, they also receive 100% damage in the process. 

FactionLightbearer
ClassN-A

Arden

Arden is one of the oldest heroes in AFK Arena. He has an ultimate ability called Force of Nature that allows him to deal 150% magic damage by sending out a strong force towards his targets. 

FactionWilder
ClassN-A

Ulmus

Ulmus’ ultimate ability, Deep Roots, allows him to stick himself to the ground. He remains like this till the end of the battle. During this time, his Attack Rating is increased by 40% and his enemies can’t put any control effects on him. When the ability is used, Ulmus also gets 40% of his max HP. 

FactionWilder
ClassTank

Mirael

Mirael’s ultimate ability is called Fire Phoenix and as its name suggests, it allows her to summon a Phoenix who attacks every enemy in its path. The Phoenix is capable of dealing 250% damage with its attacks.  

FactionLightbearer

Antandra

Antandra can use her Fury Strike ultimate ability to send out a series of attacks towards multiple targets. Each hit deals 50% damage, with the final hit dealing a whopping 190% damage. Furthermore, the final hit also stuns the targets for 3 seconds. 

FactionMauler
ClassWarrior

Rigby

Rigby can use his ultimate ability, Barrel Bomb, to send a barrel towards a single target. The barrel deals 150% damage upon impact. 

FactionLightbearer
ClassWarrior

Seirus

The final hero we would like to mention on our AFK Arena tier list is Seirus. He can send out large waves of water towards his enemies, with each wave dealing 70% damage. The enemies who get caught inside the waves are also stunned for a short period of time. 

FactionWilder
ClassWarrior

Morvus

Morvus defends well and primarily targets enemies that are the weakest of the horde. Meaning your team’s important units don’t have to distract themselves from attacking the big meat. So what ranks Morvus so low then? The character doesn’t have so much usage besides just that. 

FactionLightbearer 
Class

Walker

Walker masters in rendering single-target and multiple-target attacks via the hefty shotgun that he carries. The more the attacks rendered with that, the more damage dealt. This brings a recoil factor amid the fast-paced meta of AFK Arena hence resulting in Walker ranking so low in our tier list. 

FactionLightbearer 
ClassWarrior

Steixius

From energy regeneration to attack rating, Steixius can help allies improve strength. Simultaneously, Steixius also inflicts great damage and debuffs enemies via his Ultimate and other abilities. Nevertheless, this character suffers from limited defenses that render his awesome support potential totally useless in front of what the vast array of stronger choices has to offer.  

FactionGraveborn
Class

Bloodsnarl

The Mauler-based Bloodsnarl renders great area damage and comes with decent self-healing potencies. Overall, he has got a lot of bounties to offer but a similar amount of drawbacks too. The character comes with very low survivability and will mostly get crowd controlled when he’s needed the most. Only players who like a high-stake, high-reward kind of game must go for Bloodsnarl. 

FactionMauler
Class

Eletha

This character will give players basic damaging skills that aren’t too unique to offer a place in most team compositions. Nevertheless, if you are a fan of thrust actions, you might want to check out Eletha’s Bloody Frenzy and Piercing Blow abilities.

The list below discusses all the latest nerfs and buffs AFK Arena has welcomed recently. Consider these before making your final decisions about playing characters to make the most of our AFK Arena Hero rankings.

  • While Palmer’s most battle effects were kept the same, the developer has resolved issues that restricted him to use all his skill effects.
  • In the case of Morael, the Energy Recovery received by all nearby allies from the “Celestial Blessing” skill now comes from the correct source.
  • Updates have also revamped similar issues for Mulan. Players now can make use of all offered skill effects with full force. Mulan’s ability descriptions are also corrected. 
  • Developers have especially addressed the issues related to Drez’s “Deadly Ambush” Ultimate skill which now functions properly during the skill “Tactical Retreat” no matter whether Drez is away from the battlefield or not.
  • The latest changes make sure no verification issue comes up whenever using Theowyn. Most other battle effects were kept the same. 
  • Fixed the issue concerning Titus and his “Guardian’s Shield” skill. Shield would not be removed even if the skill has taken damage equivalent to its maximum cap. 
  • It is made sure the “Cataclysmic Roar” skill of Olgath doesn’t wrongly intervene with his Ultimate in extreme circumstances. 
  • Granit’s death instance is revamped. The additional Sand Vortex will be activated no more nor be cast at the wrong time and with incorrect effects.
