Story card stages are what they sound like, stages (usually bosses) that have rare story card rewards to farm. Events are rather simple, tasking a Friend to be able to clear a one-wave event stage in about 1 or 2 by themselves. If the Friend cannot do that, their tiering is likely lower unless they can satisfy the second category. There are 2 relevant areas in which a Friend farms: event stages and story card stages. This is where most of a Friend's tier rating will come from. As Elemental EX Battle Stages have much more use for characters with utility, both damage and team support/buffs will be considered for this tier placement. This mainly refers to Scarlet Devil Tower and Elemental EX Battle Stages. "CQ" (short for Challenge Quest) refers to a character's ability to perform in harder content. Fantasy Rebirth and Awakening are no longer considered in a unit's farm rating, for the most part - as such, many of the farm ratings skew a little lower than they would for fully upgraded units, and if you're willing to burn the extra SP, many units will perform better than listed. If the Friend in question has a Fantasy Rebirth, this will also affect their CQ rating. Rating Notesįor the purposes of a baseline of comparison, all Friends are considered to be fully upgraded - this means skill level 10, max Rank, max Stats, max Limit Break, Level 100, with optimal Story Cards (with a warning if a Friend suffers dramatically for not having their optimal Story Cards). Lower rated Friends are not irredeemable, they are simply worse than those rated above them.įor the purposes of farming, this tier list simply only cares if they can farm Lunatic or not for the purposes of evaluating them. Additionally, due to how ATK UP and DEF DOWN work, combined with easy access to the former on Story Cards, even most less damaging Friends can still work - it will take additional support, turns, or both, but even C or D Tier Friends can hit hard. A low ranking simply reflects that they lack damage, utility, or both compared to other Friends.

Assumptions: Generally, a Friend being ranked low does not mean they are worthless - due to LostWord’s elemental system, even Friends who have otherwise lacking kits can still bring element attacks for a full break.
