Tier List Ranking Criteria
Like in our PvE Tier List, every mobile suit in Mobile Suit Gundam U.C. Engage has a specific role and type, and certain mobile suits are better at their roles than others. In the context of the Arena Arena
Gundam UCE's main PvP Mode , however, players have to consider whether their mobile suit can be countered by other mobile suits, and which mobile suits are currently "meta."
This is why we ranked the game's UR mobile suits according to how much damage they deal, their stats, and how their skills contribute to their teams.
Tier List Placement Explanation
| Mobile Suit | Tier Placement Reasoning / Best Pilot / Best Sub MS | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| ［M0386］ Gundam F91 (Full Power) | • The F91 is an extremely useful tank in the sense that it benefits from a permanent Absolute Evade buff, taunts all enemies for the first 8 seconds of combat, and deals good amounts of damage. It also has high evasion and 99% EX damage resistance, which means that the only way to beat it is by reducing that EX damage resistance and hitting it with powerful EX skills, or by using Unavoidable or Bullseye+high accuracy. It can survive for as long as the match goes on when the team you're facing has none of these tools to beat it. | ||
 |  | | |
| ［M0382］ Zeta Gundam | • The Waverider Zeta, much like its other variants, is an EX spamming unit. On its third EX skill, it uses its Lethal EX instead, which deals a whopping 2079% ATK, inflicts the Unguardable and Unavoidable statuses on the target for 8 seconds, and increases the damage it inflicts by 39%. Outside of those, it benefits from a damage cap increase, EX damage buffs, EX gauge recovery buffs, accuracy, evasion, and, of course, beam damage. • The Waverider Zeta's Unguardable debuff is one of the best ways to deal with Arena's most popular unit, the Purple-O | ||
 |  | | |
| ［M0431］ Alex (Chobham Armor) | • The Alex (Chobham Armor) is an Armored unit with the ability to reflect 154% of the EX skill damage it takes back at the attacker, while having ridiculously high beam and projectile damage resistance. Its EX skill heals it for 45% of its max HP, increasing the amount of damage it can reflect back at its foes. • This MS is much more valuable in Arena, where teams often have units with extremely powerful EX skills. When used against the Alex, these units can potentially one-shot themselves. | ||
 |  |  | |
| ［M0381］ The-O | • The-O (Purple), commonly referred to as Purple-O, is an extremely popular MS, and for good reason. It boasts a high guard rate paired with Perfect Guard, heals on guarding, and deals huge AoE damage with its spammable EX and Lethal EX skills. Its incredible defense, paired with its strong offense, makes it a force to be reckoned with for both PvE and PvP. • It is not particularly as dominant as it once was due to the rise of high EX damage DPS carries, but it is still a top-tier pick capable of annihilating teams without the required tools to beat it. | ||
 | | | |
| ［M0470］ Narrative Gundam B2-Packs | • A high damage mobile suit that specializes in dealing EX damage, but is capable with its weapons too. • This mobile suit has access to both Absolute Evade and Perfect Guard, making it a nightmare to deal with, given how most units don't have access to tools to counter either of these, and the ones who do typically have the means to deal with just one of these statuses or the other. | ||
 |  |  | |
| ［M0449］ Unicorn Gundam (Hyper Mega Launcher) | • This mobile suit is one of the hardest-hitting units in the game. It comes with an extremely potent single-target EX skill that also restores a huge chunk of its EX gauge, allowing for fast spamming of this high-damage ability. • The Unicorn HML benefits from EX damage buffs that counteract EX Damage Taken Down buffs on enemy units, which allows the HML to burst down even mobile suits with 99% EX damage reduction buffs. It is also very effective against Perfect Guard/Absolute Evade units, as EX skills cannot be guarded or evaded. | ||
 |  |  | |
| ［M0438］ Gundam F91 (Twin VSBR-equipped) | • Great defensive kit consisting of permanent Stealth, 99% EX damage reduction, and extremely high evasion. Safely deals big damage consistently, provided it is in a meta team with durable units. • Powerful EX skill like most other meta DPS units today. | ||
 |  |  | |
| Mobile Suit | Tier Placement Reasoning / Best Pilot / Best Sub MS | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| ［M0089］ Char's Z'Gok | • Great to have against teams centered around strong Gundam-types, as it makes its allies go after those mobile suits first and deal increased damage against them. However, if you're up against teams whose main units consist of Zaku-types or other kinds of mobile suits, having the Z'Gok might not be as beneficial. | ||
 | |  | |
| ［M0317］ Gyan | • The Gyan excels in Arena by forcing enemies to target Armored units for the first 15 seconds of combat, protecting key DPS units, and allowing them to dominate the battlefield. Its powerful EX skill scales with Zeon Forces-Affiliated allies, dealing massive damage early in battles at higher potential levels. Additionally, it boosts survivability for Zeon units, making it a versatile pick for both defense and offense. • The Gyan + The-O (Purple) is the most dominant defensive setup in Arena at the time of writing. | ||
 |  |  | |
| ［M0458］ Theta Plus | • A Sniper unit with a 1.2 million damage cap increase, access to the Assault status, and a strong EX skill that deals bonus damage to Blue-type and Support category mobile suits. It is the best Sniper unit in the game so far. • It is useful in beating the Purple-O, thanks to being able to crit while having access to Assault, and its EX skill is able to easily beat the Methuss. That said, this MS is a very good counterpick against certain units. | ||
 |  |  | |
| ［M0408］ Sinanju | • The Generic version of the Sinanju is an extremely powerful crit-based mobile suit with access to the Bullseye status effect, extremely high crit rate and critical ATK, and a heal-on-crit mechanic. | ||
 |  | | |
| ［M0426］ Crossbone Gundam X3 | • A mobile suit that has an excellent defense thanks to Absolute Evade, ridiculously high ranged damage reduction buffs, and a 99% EX damage reduction buff. • What holds this MS back is how it is only decent at dealing damage, and not particularly fantastic. It has also become vulnerable to being bursted by today's best EX-oriented units such as the B2-Packs and the Unicorn HML. These two popular counters have EX damage buffs that counteract the Crossbone's EX damage reduction buffs. • The Crossbone X3 is best used today as a means to draw attention away from the Unicorn Gundam HML | ||
 |  |  | |
| ［M0483］ Gundam | • Performs generally well in combat due to having Bullseye and Absolute Evade, alongside strong damage output from both its weapons and its EX skill. • It is better in PvE, but it can perform well in Arena too. It may struggle to defend itself against strong EX skill users, however. | ||
 | | | |
| ［M0476］ Zeta Gundam (IF Claw and IF Blaster) | • A tanky melee bruiser with no EX skills for the first 24 seconds of combat, but turns into a glass cannon EX looper afterwards. • It is quite average in terms of damage early on, and then becomes near-defenseless after 24 seconds. It can definitely take over matches, but risk dying soon after the 24-second mark. | ||
 |  |  | |
| Mobile Suit | Tier Placement Reasoning / Best Pilot / Best Sub MS | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| ［M0296］ Magna Martell (Awaken) | • Awakened Magna Martell is a versatile unit that earns powerful buffs once its HP falls below 50% HP: a permanent Absolute Evade buff, 99% accuracy, 48% max HP, EX gauge restoration, and 99% beam damage. • It also happens to be one of the best single-target debuffers in the game, making a targeted enemy receive up to 62% more damage from all sources. • Great for debuffing enemies, but its defense has become lackluster in a PvP setting, given how it is vulnerable to taking damage from EX skills. | ||
 |  |  | |
| ［M0377］ Victory 2 Assault Gundam | • The V2A Gundam is an extremely impactful MS for PvP thanks to its ability to benefit from Perfect Guard, a potent single-target heal, team-wide EX damage resistance buffs, and ramping evasion and beam damage buffs. • However, it's been overshadowed by the Methuss as a healer in recent times. It's still a great unit, but it is no longer among the best. | ||
 |  | | |
| ［M0358］ Geymalk | • The Geymalk is a mobile suit that increases its damage with each use of its EX. After a few stacks of its damage buff from its EX skill, it is able to consistently reach its damage cap. It just needs to be competently defended by its other allies before then. | ||
 | |  | |
| ［M0437］ Rozen Zulu | • The Rozen Zulu is a Raid mobile suit with built-in crit rate, strong weapon damage, lifesteal, and Bullseye. It is essentially a Raid, melee-oriented version of the Generic Sinanju. | ||
 | |  | |
| ［M0397］ Methuss | • The Methuss heals all allies with its EX skill, grants the Regeneration status to all allies, which restores health every 6 seconds, and grants beam and projectile damage resistance buffs too for as long as it stays alive. • Blue-type units get even bigger heals and resistances, and can be resurrected by the Methuss should they fall in battle. | ||
 |  |  | |
| ［M0325］ Quin Mantha | • A bruiser with a massive HP pool and good resistances. Its constant access to the Assault state can be instrumental in taking out guard/Perfect Guard-oriented units like the The-O (Purple). • It may not be SS-tier on its own, as it needs the Methuss to showcase its true strength. The Methuss will be able to constantly heal and resurrect itself should it fall in battle. | ||
 |  |  | |
| ［M0412］ Nu Gundam HWS | • Another bruiser-type Armored unit, the Nu Gundam HWS shouldn't be your main tank as its defense is situationally good against Rival Units. Its strongest asset is its EX skill, which hits Rival Units like The-O (Purple) with high damage. | ||
 |  | | |
| ［M0427］ Ple's Qubeley Mk-ll | • Support Qubeley is like an upgraded and modern version of the Gundam Ez8. It comes with team-wide buffs that grant critical rate and critical ATK, which has found a niche in Arena as a means to help Assault Units counter Perfect Guard mobile suits with high guard rate while also giving them a nice boost in overall firepower. • In a similar sense, Support Qubeley also debuffs the entire enemy team's critical rate and critical ATK, which in turn lowers the enemy team's damage output and the effectiveness of enemy units against the Support Qubeley's allied Perfect Guard units. | ||
 | | | |
| Mobile Suit | Tier Placement Reasoning / Best Pilot / Best Sub MS | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| ［M0300］ Todesritter | • Todesritter is a crit-based Generic unit that specializes in dealing with Newtype Machines, obliterating them with its crits and its powerful EX skill that hits Newtypes for big damage twice. • While plenty of meta units are Newtype Machines, the Todesritter is no longer capable of dealing top-tier damage in a PvP setting. | ||
 |  |  | |
| ［M0434］ Unicorn Gundam Perfectibility (NT-D) | • The Unicorn Gundam Perfectibility (NT-D) is an anti-Psycho-Frame Type unit that jams all units that fall under this unit category for the first 18 seconds of the battle, and will have increased critical ATK and accuracy against Jammed targets. Its EX skill disables healing, and it benefits from increased crit rate against units with healing disabled. • Although considered mainly a PvE unit, the Unicorn PF NT-D can find itself in niche situations where it takes over in Elite Arena, especially when against multiple Psycho-Frame Type enemies. | ||
 |  | | |
| ［M0363］ Crossbone Gundam X2 | • The first mobile suit with access to Stealth, the Crossbone Gundam will stay hidden for the first 18 seconds of combat thanks to dropping last on the enemy's target priority rankings. After that, it gets a permanent Absolute Evade buff and an increase in melee damage. • The Crossbone also benefits from a 99% EX damage resistance buff, granting it even better survivability. • What holds back this unit from being in the higher tiers is how its damage output is low compared to today's heavy hitters. | ||
 |  | | |
| ［M0383］ Kshatriya Repaired | • If you took the Red Kshatriya and upgraded its kit to make it better suited for today's supercharged battlefields, you'll get the Kshatriya Repaired. This mobile suit is a very solid offensive support/DPS hybrid with the ability to inflict Unavoidable, buff its entire team's damage, and deal solid amounts of crit damage even without the Ez8. • What significantly holds this MS back is that it doesn't have any defensive tools at its disposal. That said, it'll be very easy to take down in a PvP setting. | ||
 |  |  | |
| ［M0469］ Gundam GP01Fb | • An evasion-oriented Raid mobile suit that comes with Absolute Evade and evasion. It is best known for its EX skill that deals sustained damage to a targeted enemy unit, while also granting damage and damage reduction buffs. • The GP01Fb is quite risky to use as it needs to be attacked in order to spam its EX skill, but it is not particularly as good as today's best defensive units, so it'll have to pick its battles. On the other hand, if it does not draw aggro and evade attacks, it won't get to spam its EX skill, so it performs at a pretty average level. Great if you get it to work in an ideal setting, but there's a high risk of things going wrong. | ||
 | | | |
| ［M0479］ Zaku III Custom | • A tanky lifestealing bruiser that benefits from Absolute Evade against ranged attacks, heals on EX, and Bullseye on EX. • It is ranked low on the tier list due to its low damage output and lack of defensive measures against EX skill damage. | ||
 | | | |
| ［M0435］ Zeong | • The Sniper Zeong is similar to a cross between Char's Z'Gok and Awakened Magna Martell. Its low ranking is due to its fragile durability, but it can be a situationally game-winning MS against teams with key Protagonist Units. | ||
 | | | |
| Mobile Suit | Tier Placement Reasoning / Best Pilot / Best Sub MS | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| ［M0100］ Hyaku Shiki | • A mobile suit capable of inflicting Unavoidable on the entire enemy team. • The Hyaku Shiki has become a last resort pick for when you have to deal with powerful units with Absolute Evade and have no meta counters. | ||
 | | | |
| ［M0238］ Gundam Ez8 | • The Ez8 is a crit buffer that has become more of a PvE unit, as Arena teams have found better success with more modern units with overloaded skillsets. | ||
 |  | | |
| ［M0245］ Titania | • A high evasion unit that can charge its EX skill and heal itself whenever it evades hits. It also benefits from Absolute Evade whenever it does get hit, allowing it to spam its EX and heal while rendering attacks useless. • Having no damage cap buffs has made it considerably weaker than it was back then compared to newer units, hence its low placement. | ||
 |  | | |
| ［M0352］ Gottrlatan | • An EX skill spamming mobile suit that excels at snowballing, but it has been powercrept and is no longer as effective in dealing with threats, hence making it hard to actually snowball. Needs Potential Lv. 5 to really shine, but not a lot of people have it that strong. | ||
 |  |  | |
| ［M0335］ Nu Gundam (Green) | • The Nu Gundam is a healer that was once very dominant, but has become a sub-optimal pick with the rise of new, more useful healers like Methuss and Nu Gundam HWS. | ||
 | |  | |
| ［M0056］ Zeong | • The Zeong has aged by quite a bit, and it's no longer the top-tier unit it once was. Its inability to deal with enemy units' status effects, as well as how its EX skill is no longer the massive AoE nuke when compared to today's extremely powerful EX skills, prevents it from being any higher in the tier list. | ||
 | | | |
| ［M0371］ Baund Doc | • A well-rounded unit complete with damage, evasion, durability, and the Unavoidable status effect. It has fallen to the C-tier due to being sub-standard in all regards compared to today's top picks. | ||
 | | | |
| ［M0299］ RX-78F00 HMT Gundam High Mobility Type | • The HMT is a mobile suit with built-in crit. It performs like an Ez8-amped Bombardment suit all on its own. Unfortunately, there's a limit to this MS's damage output, and it's not very impressive at all. | ||
 | |  | |
| ［M0108］ Full Armor Unicorn Gundam (NT-D) | • The FAUC NT-D is essentially a Red-type version of the Zeong. Like its counterpart, it is past its prime and is no more than just a sub-standard pick against Psycho-Frame Type and Newtype Machine enemy units. | ||
 | | | |
| ［M0333］ Gundam + G-Fighter | • The Gundam + G-Fighter is an all-around mobile suit whose kit revolves around buffs to movement speed, durability, and EX gauge recovery, but these buffs are lost once its HP falls below 50%. It also won't be able to use its EX skill as it is reduced by 200% more. • Like most units in the C-tier, it is well past its prime and cannot compete with today's meta picks. | ||
 | |  | |
| ［M0378］ Nu Gundam (Double Fin Funnels) | • The Nu DFF's best days are behind it already, as it deals low damage compared to some of the units that have come out in the present. Plus, its self-inflicted debuff prevents it from being an actually useful Assault unit, since it can't deal damage to units that have both the Perfect Guard status and guard rate buffs. | ||
