- Change Log July 2nd: Updated the tier list. Added new units.
- Change Log March 23rd, 2023: Re-checked tier list, added Lucia Dawn, Luna Laurel, and adjusted rankings as per the latest state of the game.
- Change Log Jan 20th, 2023: Added Liv Empyrea and her memory set recommendations.
- Change Log Jan 13th, ’23: Revamped the tier list, and added new characters.
It’s important to build the characters wisely to unleash their true potential; by equipping the perfect memories and resonance for the characters, you can unleash their full potential. One more thing; some characters like 2B need heavy investment; at the base level, they would not perform well, but when maxed out to SSS and built perfectly with memories and resonance, they can perform well.
