Stories and characters that I find fit everything I like in a story.

Obviously this is my opinion based on my expertise and personal tastes in writing. This list is not counting the collab characters. If you want any explanations of why I put a character somewhere, feel free to come ask me in the NieR Reincarnation Discord.

I write fanfiction. Let's rate the characters and their stories.

it's what i find cool (costume tier list)LMK your thoughts on it discord: canwewatchanimetogether#9611

My first

I either don't like these, or the costume in question is Argo.

Purely a preference Tier list, with no correlation to character/costume strengths or whatever. I also like men and monsters.Characters in the same Tier are also ranked from left to right, with the most left being the highest in the Tier, and the most right is the lowest. I also added comments only for Levania Tier, SSS Tier, or if I had to say something about the costume.

Debris: Loaded Tenacity Clump

Di5:11 - Dark Guardian\n\nThe skyborne hunter and its black wings brought naught to the\nworld. It bestowed pain, took lives, was feared and loathed,\nand was eventually cast into the blackened depths of oblivion.\nYet the creator loved it all the same, and one bird shared in\nthis affection. When all is horror in the face of ignorance,\nacceptance of goodwill absolves one of all sins, and even\nthe most sullied of lives might be saved.

CURRENTLY WIPThis tier list shows which characters have special elemental uses!If there is no comment stating a percentage, the costume has the default percentage of 20% for the effect.Personal elemental strengths examples include Element Drive, Rush or Acuity, which give additional stats for equipped elemental weapons. Rush is 20% increase of elemental weapon stats, and drive is 100%. Acuity is +80% attack and +40% HP of equipped weapons of matching elemental type. (All abyssal costumes are Acuity!)Team buffs are usually called Element + Leap or Verve. For example, Blaze Leap or Blaze Verve. The description is: "Increases the attack of equipped element-affinity weapons by X% for whole party." Leap is 20% and Verve is 40%.If you see an error, feel free ask me on twitter @Crab_IRL. DM is fine!

As someone with no fashion background, who only wears Uniqlo and Levi's, I am the definitive source of knowledge when it comes to drip. This tier list is based on rigourous research performed at the Australian Centre of Drip Intelligence. If you're upset by this list, you will just have to accept the fact that you are wrong. All characters who are not wearing clothes will be assessed on their biological drip.

Mama's Character Exchange tier list

What are balanced units?A balanced DPS is a unit that has agi passive and/or can be built for decent agility depending on build and sub passives (aka temporary agility). Dealing high damage AA and skills are 2 of the main key factors for a balanced DPS or support DPS. Building a balanced DPS requires double haste and full set CDR memoirs with an AGI main; as a side note some gacha weapons can have temp agility 20% + elemental haste on them. Best example of balanced DPS teams require at least one agility support (either temp or perm).As of the current meta, is It not yet possible to build a balanced 1h (unless they have AGI by default) due to the lack of 1h subj weapon. Best bet for a 1h user to go full agility build or use off type main subj weapon if you can cope with a single hit AA.What are agi rusher units?Raw agility rushers are built mainly to have very high agility (anything beyond the range of 3k agility is considered fast with the highest number of agility to be possibly reached about the range of ~4k). Quick notice that more speed can sacrifice damage potential + RNG can easily turn the tables against you. In the case of 2 DPS + Tank teams it's good to have an agility rusher for the safety of surviving a possible AA kill from enemy defence.Building an agility rusher is to stack temporary agility passives from gacha weapons (and there's plenty of them; the very good ones come with boon + agi passives) + the 30% agility from a subjugation weapon. Some agi rushers have already built in temp agi so it is best to avoid going over the cap of 100% temp agility. Anything past that number doesn't count. Half cdmg/beserker/agi sets are preferred for these types of builds with a minimum of one main AGI memoir. Having any agility support in the team can help your AGI rusher reach higher speed potential without sacrificing too much AA damage.Please avoid using abyssal chars as agility rushers. High stats doesn't mean high damage.Initial work by Raon Miru#7516

Balanced + Agi rusher

What is a turret ?Units that have one or two damage passives (vigor, crit, etc.), but no agi passive – low Agi and mainly stacked with attack and crit and cooldown to kill enemies with skills. Having a decent amount of HP and defense stat also help them to stay alive till second phase (skill phase) to do damage. Loadout: Short cooldown main hand, 2 ex weapons, cooldown set. (Optional: Agi or Boon weapon if don’t have 2 Ex weapons)With the introduction of Subjugation weapons, some “turrets” now have much higher minimum speed compared to before (For example, Ex Lev with subj Fist + 1 main agility memoir can reach 1700 agi easily now).Initial work by Raon Miru#7516

Turret

Hello everyone! I'm DVX, and I make YouTube content for NieR Re[in]carnation SEA! This tier list is meant for the game's PVE game modes, most especially for Abyss Towers and Subjugation. This will be updated as new costumes are released!You can click "Read more" for a brief description of the tier list.YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@DVXplays | Reddit: u/DerivativeX | Discord: DVX#7590<hr>The general tier list is based on the following:<ul><li>Costumes are assumed to be at max Ascension.</li><li>These are compared based on their base stats (HP, ATK, etc.), character skills, and character abilities 1 and 2.</li><li>Their corresponding weapons are not factored in for comparison.</li></ul>Custom tiers are reserved for Supports, as their value is unique to them and vital for the entire team. For now, they are separated according to their skills, namely Attack Supports, Defense Breakers, and Healers.<blockquote>What about Crit Rate and Crit Damage Supports?</blockquote>Crit Rate and Crit Damage are stats that can easily be adjusted through memoirs and weapon equipment. While it is alright to invest on these types of supports in the short-term, it's better long-term to just farm memoirs with a primary Crit Rate or Crit Damage stat.<blockquote>How about Defense Supports?</blockquote>The only Defense Supports we have right now are 3-star Dissenting Fio and Dissenting Rion. Honestly, though, Defense is not something you should invest in at this point of the game, especially with Subjugation's debut.Update Log SEA 1.0 (02-13-23, UTC+8) - release SEA 1.1 (02-17-23, UTC+8) - corrected Bloody Assassin's note SEA 1.2 (03-04-23, UTC+8) - adjusted EX Griff (S&gt;SSS); added Guardian Griff to attack supports; removed notes from Fractured Lars, Bloody Akeha, Bloodless Levania

Abyss Towers and Subjugation

List by nimbus#8500, emulsifier#2507, Kapater#0024, H34VEN#6448, dnbeez#7330, and Astonishing#0795

What are turrets?A turret's main objective is to kill enemy turrets/agility rushers, preferably with their first skill. Units that excel in this regard are usually equipped with innate Bold Vigor or Pursuit due to the multiplicative damage added to their attacks. While there are some units with a high enough attack stat or other exception that allows them to kill with one skill, most strong turrets have one of the two aforementioned skills. Obvious exceptions to one-skill-kills are tanks and other defensive supports.Turrets should be built using a full "Blighted Flowers" memoir set, which reduces weapon skill cooldown by 30% at the start of battle. In layman's terms, your skills will be 30% loaded at the start of battle, and the sooner you can use skills, the better. Turrets should also be equipped with sub weapons with the Haste skill, which decreases skill load times by 10%. Two haste weapons are preferred, but there may be some instances where haste can be forgone. List made by emulsifier#2507 and nimbus#8500

These can all be gotten from regular gachas.

Sorted by how limited they are.Extra sorted by their appearance in a tier list.
