Hunter tier list

S-tier

S-tier hunters are the strongest in Solo Leveling Arise, and the characters offer a formidable mix of power and versatility, excelling in offensive and support roles. Baek Yoonho stands out remarkably among them. His prowess in-game, much like his depiction in the Solo Leveling webtoon, is backed by his Beast Transformation skill.

Then there’s Choi Jong-In and Cha Hae-In. These are your picks if you’re looking for a significant boost to your DPS. Of course, you’ll need plenty of luck while rerolling to unlock the SSR Hunters.

But in a game like this, you can’t forget the importance of a skilled healer. That’s where Min Byung-Gu comes in, serving as a great support character that can keep your team fighting fit. Seo Jiwoo rounds out the S-tier roster and is a specialist at shattering defenses and taking down big bosses.

A-tier

A-tier hunters pack quite a punch, even though they’re a step below the S-tier elites. They’re definitely not to be underestimated and can hold their own in any skirmish. Take Emma Laurent, for example. If you need someone to clear a crowd with flair, she’s your go-to DPS  character. 

There is also Han Song-Yi, who fills a niche with water-based attacks. She’s a classic glass cannon but her high-octane offense more than makes up for her fragility. Park Heejin brings a different kind of strength to the table, as her support skills are invaluable in long battles. Last but not least, Lee Bora casts a long shadow with her formidable summoning powers like Tempest.

B-tier

Diving into the B-tier, you’ll find solid players who might not steal the spotlight but deserve a spot in your lineup. They bring a mix of utility and damage that can be just what you need in a pinch. 

Kang Taeshik really stands out in this group. His knack for inflicting bleed effects makes him a dark horse when it comes to DPS. Next on the list, Yoo Jinho is quite an asset with his ability to soak up damage as a Tank. Song Chiyul is another free character you encounter early on, and he has his moments, especially with his AoE capabilities against larger groups of enemies.

Overall, the B-tier hunters have their uses. They might not be your first-draft pick, but in the right situations and with the right strategy, they can really shine.

C-tier

These hunters tend to get overshadowed as you progress through the game. They might have their brief moments in the spotlight, but their limitations are apparent.

Lee Joohee is a classic example. Her main role is healing, but the game rewards quick, aggressive gameplay for fast clears, so her healing-centric approach doesn’t keep up with the pace. Park Beom-Shik falls into a similar category. These characters don’t really stand out with any particular skills or abilities. C-tier hunters might be useful at the very beginning when your options are limited, but as you build a stronger team, it’s wise to phase them out.

Wrapping up our Solo Leveling Arise hunter tier list, it’s clear that every character has their moment. Experiment with different squad setups and don’t be afraid to shake things up. Let the leveling begin!
