Faction divided tier list

If you are looking for a ranking of all the heroes above 4★, this page should hopefully help you out. If you can fill in any missing spaces, please do.

Bear in mind that this is only a general idea. A tier list is never something that everyone agrees on.

If you want to help, discuss or just talk about Idle heroes, this discord link will bring you to a community of like-minded players.

PvE rating is an average of the Aspen Dungeon, Guild Raid and Pray for Fire, Tower of Oblivion and Broken Space.

Classification

Tier	Rating	Description
SS - God	★★★★★**	Highest tier in the game. Use these heroes if possible. They're your long-term goal.
S - Excellent	★★★★★*	Excellent tier. Very viable heroes that will follow you for a very long time.
A - Exceptionally High	★★★★★	A tier whose heroes are either less potent or a little easier to counter than Tier 1. Still excellent choices for any team.
B - Very High	★★★★	Very high tier. Heroes in this tier can be really rewarding.
C - High	★★★	Pretty good tier. All of these heroes are viable picks.
D - Mid	★★	Average tier; neither good nor bad. Pick these heroes if you have no better option.
F - Low	★	Very low tier. If you have to use these heroes, replace them as soon as possible.
