Wuthering Waves Tier List – Learn how to Dominate

Wuthering Waves Tier List is here for all currently available characters from the pre-release version of the game.

Wuthering Waves is a more skill-based game than many other gacha that we cover, removing the pure tactical element. That said, each character has enough pros and cons for us to place them on this list. This data is coming from the Beta information we have, and correlated with other sources online.

As always, your skill will have a major impact on how you can best utilize this Tier List, so characters you are best with or have managed to “level up” the most will likely outshine a character that is higher on our list but is a lower level for you.

This article will be updated once the full release is out. You can find a full explainer of how the list was judged after the Tier List.
