Sword of Convallaria Tier List
Our tier list for Sword of Convallaria is dynamic, evolving with new character releases and balance updates that can shift the game's meta. It's important to note that even B or C-tier characters can successfully clear PvE content. However, for those who enjoy min-maxing their party, targeting S-tier characters is the way to go. Below is our comprehensive Sword of Convallaria tier list and character ranking, along with recommendations for Epic and Rare characters to bolster your team while you aim for Legendaries.
| Tier | Character |
|---|---|
| S | Beryl, Gloria, Inanna, Col, Edda, Cocoa, Saffiyah, Auguste, Homa, Taair |
| A | Dantalion, Magnus, Nonowill, Lilywill, Momo, Nungal, Simona, Acambe, Agatha, Caris, Kvare, Luvita, Rawiyah (Alt), Saffiyah (Alt) |

No surprises here. Beryl, Gloria, Inanna, and Col are prime reroll targets for a strong start. Beryl and Col stand out as the top DPS characters, with Beryl slightly ahead due to her Destroyer-type advantage against all but Watchers. Col, a formidable rogue, can decimate enemy teams from the side or rear, making her a must-have with attack and crit rate boosting gear.
Gloria and Inanna excel as support characters. Gloria can serve as a hard carry DPS with her powerful Flag buffs, knockback abilities, and high damage output. Inanna, the ideal dedicated healer, offers longevity with her Guard of the Princess summon, a controllable tank that can absorb hits and help meet battle objectives.
Edda, the first new character in the global version, is a strong support for magical teams, excelling in debuffing and easing Legendary weapon farming in Weaponry Trial I. Cocoa, introduced in September 2024, is a versatile tank with healing, buffs, and debuffs, reaching her full potential at five stars.
Saffiyah and Auguste, known from CN and TW tier lists, are considered game-changers. Saffiyah, a versatile Seeker, can summon minions, heal, and deal damage while avoiding hits. Auguste, the best auto-play character, is the strongest Breaker DPS, making both essential for any team composition.

Dantalion and Magnus form a powerful duo, with strong attack buffs that can dominate PvE stages. Magnus is a valuable tank, especially if you lack Cocoa. Dantalion, a DPS unit, grows stronger as battles progress, capable of soloing even after team wipes.
Nonowill offers support with buffs and debuffs, while also being a mobile attacker. Simona, added in late August 2024, is a battlemage who can freeze and slow enemies while dealing significant damage, ideal for magic-based teams alongside Edda.
Rawiyah (Alt) and Saffiyah (Alt) are strong additions. Rawiyah (Alt) provides utility and high damage, with AoE capabilities and self-healing. Saffiyah (Alt), though not as powerful as her base version, is a great debuffer, reducing enemy attack while buffing allies and dealing damage.
B-Tier
Maitha is a versatile tank with decent damage and healing capabilities, suitable as a starter tank but replaceable with Magnus or Cocoa. Rawiyah is a strong early-game DPS with AoE and self-healing, helping you progress through initial levels.
C-Tier
While considered the least effective Legendaries, C-tier characters like Teadon can still serve as decent early-game tanks. These units are useful initially but are typically replaced as you acquire higher-tier characters.
Best Epic Characters to Invest In
Not everyone will have the luck or patience to reroll for S-tier units. Fortunately, Sword of Convallaria offers powerful Epic characters that can fill gaps in your party and even carry you to the endgame.
| Role | Character |
|---|---|
| Rogue | Crimson Falcon |
| DPS | Tempest, Stormbreaker |
| Mage | Darklight Ice Priest, Abyss, Butterfly |
| Tank | Suppression |
| Healer | Angel |
Crimson Falcon has been a reliable rogue, carrying teams until players secure Col. Her high damage output, mobility, and frequent Memory Shard drops make her an early max-out candidate.
Tempest and Stormbreaker are solid frontline DPS choices if you lack Gloria. Darklight Ice Priest and Abyss are excellent mage options, with the former dealing ranged ice damage and slowing enemies. Butterfly, more of a utility character, offers small heals and position swaps.
For tanking and healing, Suppression and Angel are top picks. Suppression is a good alternative if you're not using Maitha, while Angel's strong healing can keep your team alive, especially if you're missing Inanna.
