Builds in the high tiers are capable of clearing large groups of enemies and defeating bosses in both open-world and dungeon.

While there are various builds for leveling in the game, not all can be easy to use and effective. This tier list will give you an idea about what builds you can use and what builds you should avoid.

Although it is not recommended to use C-tier builds, some are still workable and are a good choice for players who cannot afford to use higher-tier builds.
