Tier List
This site's reference ratings group NTE characters into T0, T1 and T2. They are not an official ranking or a measured community consensus.
Top tier
The highest tier in this site's ratings. Check team fit and investment before prioritising a character.
Great
Reliable in real combat. Can carry as a core pick in the teams they fit.
Usable
Handles most general content. Good as filler or to round out specific teams.
Unrated
No settled community rating yet. We'll add them as more data comes in.
How to read the tier list
Tiers reflect a character's overall strength and flexibility at typical investment — they're not absolute. NTE is a 4-unit team game built around elemental reactions and role coverage, so a T1 unit that fills a needed role is often more useful in practice than forcing in a T0 unit whose role overlaps. Cover your team's roles first, then chase raw numbers.
FAQ
Who is the best character in NTE right now? +
This page currently lists Chiz, Chaos, Iroi, Lacrimosa, Sakiri, Nanally, Shinku, Esper Zero in T0. These are the same ratings shown above, not a separate ranking. The best choice for your account depends on teammates, investment and the encounter.
Should I always pull T0 characters? +
No. First identify the missing role in your team and check the character's required partners and rotation. A rating alone is not a reason to spend currency or money.
Are A-rank characters worth building? +
Yes, when their skills fill a role your team needs. Compare support effects, available Awakenings and upgrade costs with the characters you already own rather than treating rarity as a damage ranking.
Does this list prove who deals the most damage? +
No. These are editorial reference ratings, not results from a controlled equal-investment damage test. Unrated characters have no rating assigned here; that does not mean they are weak. Check individual build guides and current in-game descriptions before deciding.
Ratings above are player-compiled; actual power and mechanics follow the live game. Let us know if anything looks clearly off for the current version.
