Tier List Criteria 

Drafting this tier list was not easy. We looked at each class’s skillset and analyzed their strengths and weaknesses. Almost all classes were very different, so upon further analysis, each character’s pros and cons were quite apparent. We used the following to draft each class’s Tier.

  • Attacking Abilities. 
  • Defensive Abilities.
  • Close/long-ranged attacks. 
  • Versatility and adaptability. 
  • Usefulness at higher levels.
  • Passive Skills. 
  • Supporting capabilities. 

Final Words

The most recent patch has improved the balance of the game and fixed glitches in the game. However, there are still some classes that overpower the rest. Hence, the Hero Siege Tier list was absolutely necessary to make.

Also, starting out in Hero Siege is quite difficult, so you must understand the fundamentals of the game to truly master the game.
