Goddess Era: FTR (DPS) Tier List

In our Goddess Era DPS Tier List page, we will cover which characters/units are worth considering building and investing on to help you clear the game's content.

Goddess Era by Happyfun Limited is an Idle-RPG where you can summon, collect, and create combat parties of alluring goddesses based on popular entities from popular folktales and fictional stories from various time periods of history. Of course, not all goddesses are on equal footing since they have their own roles, set of skills and talents which determine their viability in combat and their overall use.

In our tier list, we will cover which prominent goddesses you should aim to pull for, and which ones to build if you already have them in your party. We will be dividing this tier list into four parts so we can extensively cover the best characters per class/role. We’ll also narrow our list from SS to A so we can also focus on providing the necessary details about the featured characters’ kits. If you can’t see your favorite goddess included in the list, that doesn’t automatically make them bad. Of course you can still use them if you want since it is your game after all.

Disclaimer

Please be reminded that Tier Lists are not “definite” measures of the character’s strength and potential. There are a lot of factors to be considered like the characters’ availability, their synergy with your team, their utility, equipment, etc. As such, please use our tier lists as what they’re meant to be - a guide. Use tier lists to help you decide whether you’ll want to invest resources and time to build a character. At the end of the day, it’s you who will decide which ones you’ll use based on preference and performance .

Goddess Preview and Skills

You can access the Goddess Gallery where you’ll be able to view details about each Goddess in the game, even if you haven’t summoned them yet. You can refer to the goddess’ entries in the gallery to learn more about their individual abilities, the required upgrade materials to improve them, their available skins, and a preview of their maxed out stats to name a few.

S-grade characters have four skills though they’ll start with only their first skill unlocked. As you level up their tiers, their successive skills will be unlocked as well. For goddesses featured in our list, these skills are also heavily considered since they can affect the flow of battle and the goddesses’ individual performances.

Tier List Summary

We will be dividing our list into three tiers: SS, S, and A.

* SS units are usually considered broken and having them in your squad will drastically increase your quality of life in-game.

* S tier units are still exceptionally strong but not as broken as the SS units.

* Finally, A-tier units are strong and reliable in their own right. You’ll do well having them but they won’t have that significant of an impact compared to our S and SS tiers.

SS-tier DPS

FTR or DPS goddesses specialize in wreaking havoc, dominating the battlefield through sheer firepower and brute force. Their gameplay is pretty simple and straightforward; just improve all possible aspects of their ATK or offensive capabilities to make them shine.

Michael

Class: Light FTR

Role: Chase, Counter

Michael is a powerful DPS that utilizes the Wrath status effect to its full extent while being able to counter any basic attack with her passive. Wrath causes the afflicted unit to lose extra HP when receiving an attack for three turns. This can be further stacked and upgraded two more times; if the target already has Wrath and gets afflicted by the same effect again, it will become True Wrath, and if hit for the third time, becomes Ultimate Wrath. The effect stays the same but the amount of extra HP lost per damage received becomes significantly higher. Her ultimate skill can deal massive damage to a single foe while ignoring a huge chunk of the target’s defense. This skill also deals higher damage if the target is affected by any tier of the Wrath status.

Athena

Class: Natural FTR

Role: DPS, Combo

Athena’s kit extensively uses the Goddess Mark effect to its full extent. Goddess Mark increases the unit’s Crit by 2% per stack, and one can earn 10 stacks at most. Furthermore, this buff cannot be removed. Depending on the stack of her Goddess Marks, Athena can perform a bonus attack or two that also deals splash damage to enemies. Her passive allows her to absorb the Goddess Marks from her allies before using her skills.

Her ultimate skill grants her immunity vs Control effects for two turns while also applying Goddess Protection to all allies. Allies with this buff will earn one Goddess Mark every time they attack.This skill also ignores the speed difference between Athena and her enemies, guaranteeing the activation of the skill before any enemy does.

Thor

Class: Dark FTR

Role: Combo, Chase

Thor is a powerful DPS unit with high damage multipliers, self buff, and the nasty capacity of inflicting Vanishment. (Affected unit gets damaged per turn for two turns. Stackable). Her passive also allows her to deal more damage against enemies with low HP and bonus damage against Defender-type enemies. Her skill “Thunder God Hammer”, hits a target multiple times and deals bonus damage per Vanishment stack the target has. If the target’s HP is lower than 30%, Thor deals bonus damage. If the target is defeated, Thor gets the Thirst status. This self-buff increases her Crit to 100% and Crit Damage by 20% for two turns.

S-tier DPS

Sun Wukong

Class: Demigod FTR

Role: Slashed, Execution

Sun Wukong heavily utilizes the Slashed status effect, prioritizes low HP units, and even has the capacity to heal herself. Slashed is a stackable debuff similar to “bleeding” where the affected unit loses HP every turn based on the caster’s ATK stat, for three turns. With her Monkey King active skill, she performs a double attack on the enemy with the lowest HP. If the target has a Slashed or Severe Slash status applied to it, the skill is guaranteed to crit, has increased crit damage, and also heals Sun Wukong’s HP by half of the skill damage dealt.

Aside from the standard stat boosts, Sun Wukong’s first passive also gives her a high chance of inflicting the Slashed status to her attackers. Her second passive allows her to deal bonus damage against enemies affected by Slashed or Severe Slash.

Iskandar

Class: Heroic FTR

Role: Focused Attack, Chase

Iskandar is a selfish yet powerful DPS unit, making full use of her ability to apply unremovable Conqueror Marks to enemies. Enemies with Conqueror Marks will be Iskandar’s priority targets and will receive increased damage from her for 4 turns. Her Spark of War skill deals high damage to a target (prioritizes enemy with a Conqueror Mark) while also draining the target’s HP and reducing its SPD. Her other active skill allows her to target an enemy with the lowest HP and release a Spark of War skill damage to all other enemies with the Conqueror Mark applied to them.

Iskandar also has two passives: the first one allows an ally (preferably Fighter-types) to inflict a Conqueror Mark on its target. Her second passive increases her Crit by 20% and grants her the ability to remove all non-control debuffs or status ailments from herself.

Behemoth

Class: Demigod FTR

Role: Stun, Crit Up

Behemoth prioritizes enemy Support units and even deals bonus damage to them, thanks to her second passive. This makes her an ideal Support executor, robbing the enemy team of the ability to heal or buff themselves. Her first active skill deals damage with the chance to stun, while her second active skill deals massive physical damage. If the target is stunned, her crit and crit damage are significantly boosted against it.
