Hey fellow summoners! If you're diving into Seven Knights Re:BIRTH — congrats, you’ve jumped into a seriously hyped remake of the OG classic. This game has been rebuilt from the ground up by Netmarble, reimagining the iconic mobile RPG for 2025 with refreshed visuals, a massive hero roster, and revamped systems to keep both veterans and newcomers glued to their screens. +2Inven Global+2

I. Introduction to Seven Knights Re:BIRTH and Tier List Overview

Here’s what you should know about this tier list guide:

• Why a tier list? Because not all heroes are created equal — some shine universally, others only in niche content. With dozens (if not hundreds) of heroes available, you want to know who’s worth your time and resources.

• Multiple content modes = multiple rankings. PvE, PvP, raids, farming — each mode values different strengths. A hero dominating adventure mode might struggle in arena, so this guide differentiates where possible.

• Meta shifts quickly. Updates, balance patches, and new hero additions can shake things up — treat this guide as a living doc.

• How to use this guide: As a reference — for new accounts, rerolling choices, team building, or deciding who to transcend first. If you pair it with your own playstyle and what modes you care most about, you’ll get the most value.

All right — saddle up. Let’s dive into the tier list and how to build your dream squad.

II. Complete Character Tier List Rankings (As of Late 2025)

Below is a breakdown of who’s cracked the meta groups right now — from must-have SS heroes to budget picks just for fun.

A. SS Tier: Game-Changing Priority Characters

These are the units you want ASAP. They excel in multiple modes — PvE, PvP, raids — and often stay relevant even after you get more gear or better relics.

• Teo — Top-tier all-around DPS. Great AoE, burst, works in nearly every mode. +2Power Up Gaming+2

• Yeonhee — Magical DPS / utility. Often tagged as “farm goddess” for her reliable clearing and scaling.

• Mercure — Magic-specialist attacker; maintains high DPS in many scenarios.

• Rin — Strong magic attacker, good AoE coverage, valuable for clearing modes requiring wave clear.

• Vanessa — Debuffer / mage hybrid — useful in PvE/PvP where enemy defence or resistance matters.

• Ace — AoE / Assassin-type DPS, great early-to-mid game damage output.

• Juri — Magic DPS / red-flag unit, shines in both PvE bosses and PvP thanks to consistent damage and utility.

These heroes are “must-haves” if you pull them — they’ll anchor your team for a long time.

B. S Tier: Extremely Versatile and Strong

Strong heroes that are often just a bit less universal than SS, but still highly reliable across many contents.

• Biscuit — Decent support/healer, good for early-to-mid game or filler if you don’t have top healers yet.

• Platin — Tanky support / buffer; solid in many PvP compositions, adds stability to teams needing survivability.

• Karma — Hybrid DPS/support, flexible picks for players lacking many hardcore meta units.

• Jave — Physical attacker, good once geared up; viable mid-game to late-game.

• Rudy — Solid tank / defense anchor, useful for story progression and early raids.

• Other Reliable Picks — Characters like Eileene, Dellons, Spike, Shane sometimes make S-tier depending on party composition and mode.

S-tier heroes are usually a good safe bet if you’re building a balanced or budget-friendly team.

C. A Tier: Strong and Situational Picks

These heroes aren’t meta-dominators, but with the right support or in the right content they hold their own. Great picks if you don’t get top-tier units or just want variety. Examples: certain mid-rarity heroes, characters with some utility but not enough to stand out fully.

They’re useful for filling in gaps, experimenting with team compositions, or handling specific “niche” content (like certain dungeons or early-game stages).

D. B and Lower Tiers: Budget / Niche Picks

These are lower-priority heroes — often slower, less scalable, or outclassed by even similarly-rarity units. Good only:

• When you’re brand new and have nothing else;

• If you enjoy collecting and aren’t chasing meta;

• In modes where their shortcomings don’t matter (e.g. low-difficulty content, fun runs, casual play).

III. Reroll Tier List and Beginner Strategy

If you just started or are thinking of rerolling — here's how to approach it.

A. Why Reroll Matters

Because some SS / S heroes are so strong, starting with them gives you huge advantages early on. Many players reroll to get one of those before committing resources. Especially worth it if you care about late-game progression and PvP.

B. Best Characters to Reroll For

Top picks if you reroll:

• Teo — his power and versatility make him a top pick.

• Yeonhee / Mercure / Rin — strong magic DPS, very useful early and great scaling.

• Vanessa, Ace, Juri — if you want a balanced coverage of support / DPS / utility.

If you can get one SS-tier + a decent S-tier or even a solid A-tier — you’re in good shape.

C. How to Reroll Efficiently

• Use pre-launch or early-game banners / promotions to maximize your chances.

• Aim for a top-tier hero + a reliable second member (support or tank).

• Once you get a decent start, don’t reroll too long — the early resource gain is valuable.

D. Rare Character Reroll Options

If you’re unlucky with top picks, mid-rarity tanks or support picks (like Biscuit, Rudy, or budget-friendly heroes) can still carry you through early content until you pull better.

IV. PvE Content Tier List by Game Mode

Because not all content is the same, here’s how top heroes fare in different PvE modes.

A. Adventure / Story / Raid Farming

• Top for clearing & efficiency: Teo, Yeonhee, Mercure, Rin (strong AoE / DPS)

• Tank/Support core: Rudy (tank), Platin (support), Vanessa (utility/debuff)

• Budget picks: A-/B-tier heroes for early farming or if you lack meta picks

These compositions handle most story chapters, farming loops, and drop-farming raids smoothly.

B. Nightmare / Hard Difficulty / High-Floor Raids

Meta-level play demands high DPS or sturdiness:

• SS / S-tier picks shine — especially those with strong burst or AoE (Teo, Jave, Rin)

• Need a balanced team: DPS + Tank + Support. Overemphasis on just DPS can cause wipeouts in content with heavy mechanics or burst damage from enemies.

C. Resource Farming & Efficiency

If you're farming rubies, gear materials, or tokens:

• Aim for AoE or multi-target units to speed up runs (Teo, Mercure)

• Use support/tank to ensure stability (Rudy, Platin)

• Avoid low-damage B/C picks — runs take longer and resource yield drops

V. PvP Content Tier List (Arena / Guild War / Competitive Modes)

PvP is where tier list matters the most — matchups, counters, and team synergy matter more than raw stats.

A. PvP Meta Cores

Meta-defining units include:

• Teo, Juri, Vanessa, Yeonhee — strong burst, versatile kit.

• Platin, Rudy — for tank/support balance and control.

B. S-Tier to S+ Tier PvP Picks

• Platin — often a top pick thanks to strong crowd control or defensive buffs.

• Karma — good hybrid flexibility, can surprise in balanced teams.

• Colt, Ace — DPS-heavy burst attackers that can snowball matches if played well.

C. Mid & Low-Tier for PvP

• A-tier or below — usable only if meta heroes are unavailable. Expect inconsistent results, especially against heavy meta lineups.

• Use these more for casual matches or non-competitive play.

VI. Character Role Classifications — Who Does What Best

Understanding hero roles helps you build well-rounded teams, not just chasing “best DPS.” Here’s a breakdown:

A. Physical Attackers (DPS / AoE / Burst)

• Best for raw damage output or clearing mobs quickly.

• Units like Teo, Jave, Ace are great in this role (SS / S-tier).

• Ideal when you want to farm fast or clear difficult boss-heavy content.

B. Magic Attackers / Spell DPS

• Offer AoE, element coverage, or magic damage for targets resistant to physical.

• Yeonhee, Mercure, Rin often perform well here.

• Use especially in content where magic damage or elemental advantage is more effective.

C. Support / Utility Heroes

• Provide buffs, debuffs, defense buffs, or utility effects.

• Platin, Vanessa, Biscuit fall here — vital for team stabilization, especially in tougher content.

D. Tanks / Defenders

• Absorb damage, guard fragile DPS, help against heavy-hitting enemies or apply crowd control/resistance.

• Rudy and tank-type heroes help teams survive when raw DPS isn’t enough.

E. Hybrid or Flexible Heroes

• Heroes blending DPS + support, or DPS + utility — sometimes very resource-efficient if you're mid-game and can’t afford many heroes.

• Karma represents this: decent output with flexibility.

VII. Best Heroes by Type and Function — Who to Use When

Depending on what you need — farming, tanking, magic, burst — the “best hero” changes. Here are recommendations:

• Best for fast farming / mob clearing: Teo, Mercure, Yeonhee — AoE / magic DPS heavy hitters.

• Boss or tank-heavy content: Jave (single-target physical DPS), Rudy (tank), Platin (support).

• Early game all-rounders: Ace, Vanessa, Biscuit — decent kit without requiring max investment.

• PvP / Arena meta picks: Teo, Juri, Platin, Karma — versatility + meta utilities like burst or crowd-control.

• Budget / F2P friendly picks: Biscuit, Rudy, certain A-tier heroes — use them while you build toward a meta-team.

VIII. Tier List Explanation and Evaluation Criteria

How did we classify these heroes? Here’s the logic behind the tiers:

• SS / S+ — Game-changing units. Excellent across multiple modes, scalable, and meta-proof (for now).

• S — Strong, reliable, maybe not the absolute meta but flexible and effective.

• A — Situational or niche. Useful with correct team comp or for certain content, but not dependable universally.

• B / C / D — Lower output, scaling issues, or limited utility. Good for filler, fun, or early-game only.

These rankings consider: damage output, survivability, utility (buffs/debuffs/heals), versatility across modes, and ease of upgrading (gear, transcendence, resources).

IX. Team Building and Synergy — How to Build a Solid Squad

Having strong heroes matters — but synergy matters even more. Here’s how to build effective teams.

A. Build Framework: Tank + DPS + Support

A balanced squad often looks like:

• Tank / Protector (e.g. Rudy, Platin)

• Main DPS (physical or magical — Teo, Yeonhee, Mercure, Ace)

• Support / Buffer / Utility (Vanessa, Biscuit, supportive A-tier heroes)

This setup handles most PvE content comfortably, and can adapt to PvP with tweaks (swap utility for burst or crowd-control when needed).

B. Sample Teams by Purpose

• Farming Team (fast clears): DPS + AoE magic DPS + light support — e.g. Teo + Mercure + Vanessa.

• Boss / Raid Team: Physical DPS + tank + support/healer — e.g. Jave + Rudy + Platin.

• PvP Competitive Team: Balanced — burst DPS + tank/support + utility/debuff hero — e.g. Teo + Karma + Platin.

• Budget / F2P Team: Starter friendly units doing a bit of everything — e.g. Ace + Biscuit + Rudy.

C. Flexible & Adaptive Strategy

Don’t commit to one fixed team forever. As you get better heroes, change roles, shift compositions depending on content: boss fight vs. farming vs. PvP. A flexible mind is your best friend.

X. Transcendence System and Power Scaling — When to Push Your Heroes

Getting a top-tier hero is just part one — then comes the grind. In Seven Knights Re:BIRTH, hero enhancement matters big time.

• Transcendence (T-levels): As you evolve a hero, their base stats, skills, and viability go up significantly. Priority: push your SS / S heroes first.

• Gear & Equipment: Good gear boosts are crucial. Even top-tier heroes underperform if their gear is trash. Prioritize DPS/tank gear depending on role.

• Stat / Role Balance: For tanks — HP/DEF priority; for DPS — attack/crit/damage gear; for support — utility or buff-enhancing gear.

Short version: get a core team (SS/S), focus resources there — don’t spread thin across every hero you pull.

XI. Beginner Guide and Progression — Where to Start if You're New

Just downloaded Seven Knights Re:BIRTH? Here’s a quick starter roadmap based on what I’ve learned:

1. Reroll if possible — aim for one SS (ideally Teo, Yeonhee, Mercure, Vanessa, Ace) and a decent backup / support hero (tank or utility).

2. Initial team: SS DPS + support/tank + mid-tier healer/support — this combo carries you through early chapters, farming, and raids.

3. Prioritize upgrading core heroes only — don’t waste resources on B/C-tier just yet.

4. Farm smart: Use AoE / magic DPS units to clear early content fast. Save rubies for summons at important banners.

5. Gear up gradually: Focus on gear for your main team first. Balanced progress beats spreading resources thin.

Avoid common mistakes: don’t chase every hero you like, don’t overinvest early on mediocre units, and don’t forget to balance team roles (tank / DPS / support).

XII. Advanced Strategy and Meta Thoughts

When you’ve got a decent roster and want to climb higher (raid hard content, top PvP, high-floor tower, etc.), this is where team comp, synergy, and strategy separate the pros from the scrubs.

• Match hero roles to content: AoE-heavy mobs = AoE DPS + magic users; single-target bosses = burst DPS + tank + support.

• Utilize stun, crowd control, debuffs strategically — especially in Raids or PvP. Heroes like Vanessa or mixed comps that include support / utility shine here.

• Don’t neglect balance: A full DPS team might melt bosses, but may die on sustained fights — always have some sustainability (tank or healer).

• Meta will shift: New heroes or balance patches will rearrange tier lists. Stay updated and adapt — what’s S-tier now might be mid-tier after next patch.

XIII. Conclusion and Final Recommendations

Alright — that’s a lot, but here’s the TL;DR for you, as a player who's grinding, pulling, and climbing:

• If you get a hero like Teo, Yeonhee, Mercure, Vanessa, Ace, or Juri — consider yourself lucky. They’re meta-slaying beasts and will carry you far.

• Build a core team early: DPS + support/tank + healer/utility — that trio is your foundation.

• Don’t spread resources thin. Invest in core heroes first.

• Adapt based on content: PvE, raids, PvP each value different strengths — tweak your team accordingly.

• Enjoy the game. Don’t get too hung up on meta. There are tons of decent heroes — and some B-tier underdogs feel fun if you build around their strengths.

Whether you’re a reroller hunting for that S-tier pull, a fresh player starting out, or a vet optimizing for late-game — I hope this guide helps you make smarter pulls, build stronger teams, and dominate the Adventure world of Seven Knights Re:BIRTH.

See you on the battlefield — may RNG bless your summons!
