Arknights operator tier list

The true strength of an operator depends entirely on the specific scenario and how that character synergizes with the other operators in the party. Owing to this, we have broken down our tier list class by class to help you pick the best choices from each of the eight classes in Arknights.

As a general rule of thumb, operators that feature in the A and B tiers are those that you should be looking to ensure you use as often as possible in Arknights.

Caster tier list for Arknights

Specializing in magic damage, Casters are usually ranged operators with a reasonably limited health pool. Don’t let this put you off, though, as the best casters can wipe out entire armies with their abilities in seconds.

Guard tier list for Arknights

Guards are melee-based operators who can block enemies while soaking up bursts of damage from the enemy. While these characters are nowhere close to being the front line for your party, instead, they deal a notable amount of physical damage with their attacks alongside a not-so-squishy health pool.

Defender tier list for Arknights

The front-line operators in Arknights, Defenders, are highly sustainable characters, capable of withstanding anything the enemy might throw at them. However, you should note that these operators cannot deal much damage and are primarily helpful for blocking incoming attacks.

Medic tier list for Arknights

As the name suggests, Medic operators excel at healing their allies instead of attacking the enemies, and as such, it should be noted that these operators are highly squishy. With shallow defensive attributes, Medic operators should be positioned accordingly in combat to increase their overall survivability.

Specialists tier list for Arknights

Specialists are operators who are experts at disabling or applying debuffs to enemies when required. While they can be beneficial up to a certain level, their true potential is revealed in the PvP mode as crowd-controlling units. You should remember that these operators are not ideal for damage-dealing and should be used according to their specialization.

Sniper tier list for Arknights

Instead of marksmen, Arknights features Snipers, a class of operators who specialize in dealing damage from a long range. These operators can inflict massive bursts in a reasonably short duration, but these characters are pretty squishy and can be taken out rather quickly.

Supporter tier list for Arknights

Supporters are mainly equipped with tools that aid other operators in their party. Be it to provide buffs for your allies or debuff your enemies, these characters are handy in PvP matches combined with Specialist operators.

Vanguard tier list for Arknights

Another class of tanky operators who can serve as the front line for your army in combat, these characters also feature abilities and skills that allow you to regenerate additional Deployment Points for deploying other operators.
