Goddess of Victory: NIKKE Tier List

This is an overall PVE usage tier list

We update it every 2 weeks (or when new characters drop) to adjust based on overall PVE usage and the current meta.

Any questions you have about the ratings or placements, feel free to join our Discord and ask about it.

Remember that this game has a lot of game modes and also plenty of possible team compositions. Just because you see a character on a lower rating doesn't mean you should not use them ever. Waifu > meta.

Character order is alphabetical, there is no stronger to weaker order since this is just an overall usage tier list.

Regarding the assets tier list

It's just my opinion (which obviously is right) about what are the best assets in NIKKE. Outisde memes, feel free to join our Discord to argue about placements and why your favorite unit deserves to be higher.
