While building an ideal Reverse 1999 team, you must include a DPS, a Support, and a Sustain. Additionally, an Arcanist provides excellent utility when paired with the right teammates regardless of their ranking in this Reverse 1999 version 2.2 tier list.

Moreover, the tier list only provides a general overview of the current meta and power distribution. You are advised to any Arcanist you are familiar with and equip them with the Reverse 1999 Psychubes that complement their skills to achieve the best results.

Keeping that in mind, this article divides all playable Arcanists into SS, S, A, B, C, and D tiers. Like other gacha games, the SS tier characters are overpowered. On the contrary, the D-tier units perform poorly in the current meta.

Listed below is the Reverse 1999 version 2.2 tier list for February 2025.
