Reasons for Rankings
S Tier
Element Name | Reason for Rating |
|---|---|
Prism Style | Good AOE, speed, and block break. Its main downside despite its power is the slow wind-up per ability due to the number of handsigns. |
Acid | Good AOE and crowd control, as well as a bit of mobility. Strong element for both PVE and PVP. |
A Tier
Element Name | Reason for Rating |
|---|---|
Pyromania | Its Flame Spin Kicks and laser move are pretty good, and its forward dashing grip can catch people offguard |
Chaos | Pretty good for both PVE and PVP, especially with its long reach and AOE |
Order | Same as Chaos (identical movesets) |
Yin | It has good range and damage output, if you can land its moves |
Yang | Same as Yin (similar movesets) |
Shiver | Shiver has some block breaking abilities and decently strong moves |
Gilga | Same as Yin (exact same moveset) |
B Tier
Element Name | Reason for Rating |
|---|---|
Gale | Terrible for PVE compared to most other elements, but it can be pretty good for pure PVP |
Fire | Pretty strong in PVE but only kind of okay in PVP compared to others |
Lightning | Pretty good element for PVE, but way too slow and predictable in PVP |
C Tier
Element Name | Reason for Rating |
|---|---|
Gale | Terrible for PVE compared to most other elements, but it can be pretty good for pure PVP |
Fire | Pretty strong in PVE but only kind of okay in PVP compared to others |
Lightning | Pretty good element for PVE, but way too slow and predictable in PVP |
D Tier
Element Name | Reason for Rating |
|---|---|
Earth | While Earth has the potential to be great for PVE, it falls off a lot in PVP, making it not too desireable overall |
Wind | Usable in PVE, but also falls off in PVP due to how easy it is to counter |
