Like other gacha games, not every character in Neverness to Everness is worth your Annulith, and building the wrong team early can set you back pretty hard. This Neverness to Everness Characters tier list breaks down every character in NTE, so you know who to pull for and who to skip.
Neverness to Everness Characters Tier List
| Tier | Characters |
|---|---|
| S | Nanally, Sakiri |
| A | Baicang, Hathor, Esper Zero, Daffodill, Chiz |
| B | Jiuyuan, Fadia, Haniel, Mint, Adler |
| C | Skia, Aurelia, Edgar |
S Tier Characters in NTE
| Character | Image | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Nanally |  | Strongest DPS in the game so far. She has a serious damage output, follow-up attacks, and is easy to use. Works well in any team. |
| Sakiri |  | Best support in the game. She can gather enemies and lock them in place with her Ultimate. She also buffs your whole team's ATK. |
A Tier Characters in NTE
| Character | Image | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Baicang |  | Solid main DPS who specializes in Damage over Time. His Ultimate also deals a big burst damage while stacking more DoT. |
| Hathor |  | AoE burst DPS who charges feather stacks for a big nuke. |
| Esper Zero |  | Free main character that has a unique Instant Cycle ability that charges your Esper bar immediately, letting you do faster team swaps and more damage. |
| Daffodill |  | Excellent boss fighter. Has great white bar damage to break enemy stances fast. A long-range dodge she can use mid-combo to dodge attacks. |
| Chiz |  | Free character you unlock through Tycoon. When fully awakened, she deals massive damage. |
B Tier Characters in NTE
| Character | Image | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Jiuyuan |  | Good AoE crowd control and single-target DPS in ranged mode. |
| Fadia |  | Redirects damage away from teammates to herself, then reflects some of it back to enemies. |
| Haniel |  | A support buffer who can boost team damage. Easy to get, and works in any team. |
| Mint |  | Free character with low skill cooldown and good parry. Deals decent damage early on, but gets outclassed quickly once you have stronger DPS. |
| Adler |  | Shield support that protects your whole team with one button press. |
C Tier Characters in NTE
| Character | Image | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Skia |  | Below average damage output. Best to pair with Chiz for Esper Cycles using the Lakshana element, but that's all. |
| Aurelia |  | Log-in reward character with limited mobility and low damage. Her Ultimate has a minor gather effect, but it is not enough to make her relevant. |
| Edgar |  | The only dedicated healer in NTE, but healing is rarely needed if you play well in this game. |
Which NTE Character Should You Pick from the Free Selector?
Neverness to Everness gives you a free S-class selector, and it is one of the most important choices you will make early on. If you do not have a gatherer yet, pick either Sakiri or Jiuyuan first. Having a character that can group enemies is almost essential for Abyss content.
If you already have one of those two, then Daffodill is a great pick because she fits into any team and performs well in boss fights.
That's the end of our Neverness to Everness characters tier list. The characters in this game are all usable to some degree, but spending your resources wisely early on will make everything a lot easier. Redeem these codes if you want more Annulith to boost your chances of getting your favorite character.
