    Are you rating based on endgame potential? Or do you care about their utility to carry the army when the player still doesn't have all the resources? Do you assume that the characters are allowed to borrow a desired unique ability from the merc whistle gift?

    We've updated the tier list to rerank some characters who deserve a higher placement. Feel free to share your thoughts here. Thank you!

    I guarantee Edelgard gets more hate than Dorothea, and most females for that matter. She's controversial Still doesn't mean she isn't also very popular Dorothea was the most deployed unit in 3 houses at point

    Still don't believe Bernie is more liked than Petra and Dorothea She just happened to be the absolute favorite of more voters here I suspect she would place lower on more lists for people who didn't vote for any of those 3

    What's funny is she has more, or equal, votes than 10 of the other 16 females lol Don't think you understand what bottom half means

    There's a lot of silly placements here. Lysithea is leagues better than other Gremories. Sylvain, Lorenz, and Felix are easily S tier units. Shamir has one of the worst learned skill pools in the entire game. No way is she S. Balthus is at least A tier. Rodrigue is NOT a bottom tier unit. He has all the makings of an A or even S tier unit. One of the best preferred classes, further complemented by Essence of Light. An excellent ability and learned skills. Ashe>Bernie? Lol.

    Dark Knight Ferdinand literally deletes the entire map while also having an excellent personality soooooo

    Petra should be S tier, her unique ability lets her be VERY mobile, while also allowing her to use it to string combos infinitely. You can launch a boss into the air with her and never let them land. Borderline stronger than Shez.

    Lorenz should be S tier for the simple fact you can play as braindead as possible and yet receive no damage because of Rondo of Roses. He's the easiest character to get the Flawless Victory achievement. Difficulty doesn't even matter.

    Funny to see that Dorothea is the least liked BE female by a landslide. No surprise based onall the hate she gets. Some people still say that she is very popular but this poll says otherwise. More like at the downer half of the female cast. 😁

    Both are waaay stronger than Claude who is supposedly your stronger Golden Deer (still S rank imo). But then you have Leonie with her spam normal attack as S rank, sure. And I just talk about glaring mistake I see from Golden Deer house since it is the only one I played at max level for now (no idea what can do Shamir. And I dislike the gameplay Raphael bring so no idea for them), but I m sure there is way more silliness in that "tier list", don't let you trap by it!

    Marianne need her emblem sword Blutgang but then she is absolutly busted too. She get the passive, from the sword, to get all damage as magical and get the skill Beast Fang which is absolutly broken. That and she throws so much ice with her unique skill and ice blade and you have permafrozen ennemies everywhere. Furthermore, she got some traits which allows her to spam so much awoken jauge and warrior jauge that it is completly silly. Any sword user is op for her.

    Rodrigue definitely doesn't belong in c tier, when his upgraded unique can be as strong as Sylvain's
