Ash Echoes tier list that rates all characters from both Global and CN versions of the game based on their performance.
Last updated: 27/11/2024
Tier List
Ash Echoes is a game where Team Building and Strategy are the main focus, and this should be taken into consideration over individual character “power”. As such, please take the ratings listed here merely as a reference and not as a hard rule. Remember to pay attention to how each character and team functions for a better experience.
In this Tier List, characters are rated based on how they perform within their designated role. This format was chosen in order to facilitate team building. Consequently, sentences like “Freda is stronger than Hassel” make no sense in this context, as those characters fulfill completely different roles and purposes.
Categories
- Damage Dealer: Characters whose function is focused on being the main source of Damage for the team.
- Specialist: Echomancers of this type can serve many different roles in a team. Their main utility can come from Barrier PEN, Control, Interception, creating Elemental Zones, and other battlefield-altering techniques. They can also trigger Elemental Reactions to help players achieve victory.
- Buffer/Debuffer: Echomancers of this type can grant buffs to allied DPS characters or lower enemy RES/increase enemy DMG taken to greatly enhance team DPS for a short time.
- Survival: Healers and Tanks, their main role is to make sure that the team survives. Some of them can also offer a bit of Utility or Damage.
Criteria
Echomancers are evaluated as such:
- 6✦ at 0 dupes, 5✦ at 3 dupes, 4✦ and below at max dupes.
- It’s taken into consideration: Raw power, versatility (teams and builds), utility (how unique or essential their kits are), cost.
- Top Picks
- S Tier: The absolute best at their category, while also offering extra benefits.
- A Tier: On par with the characters from S Tier, but lack the extra benefits that make the S Tier unique.
- Good Picks
- B Tier: On par with the characters from A Tier, but have some sort of drawback, such as needing extra investment or a specific environment.
- C Tier: Not bad, but definitely need investment or specific circumstances to shine and reach the same level of B Tier or above.
- Niche Picks
- D Tier: Characters who work on very specific (niche) circumstances or who rarely play their role, functioning as a placeholder or substitute for characters who are from tiers above.

- Added 2 characters to the Global tier list: [Scarlett] & [Baili Tusu].
- [Baili Tusu] moved from B to A in CN tier list. Upon extensive analysis, we reached the conclusion that his output is higher than all other characters on B-tier. Furthermore, he hasn't been replaced yet in his role in the Pure Fire team, while the characters on B Tier have been more or less replaced on their respective teams across this almost one year of time span.

Added 2 new characters to the CN tier list:
- [Tishi] added to A tier. Second only to Feng Qingxue when it comes to raw power in numbers, Tishi has infinite skill uses and is the first character able to place a “lightning zone”. She's fast, versatile, and resourceful. However, she needs time to ramp up, and in order to reach top levels of damage, she needs 3 Dupes. This Tier List rates characters based on 0 Dupes, but if you decide to invest on her and somehow manage to get her to 3 Dupes, she's definitely S tier material.
- [Midas] added to S tier. Midas can efficiently deliver big bursts of damage, break block gauges and debuff enemies, turning their defenses against themselves. Whenever a Physical Echomancer's summon deals DMG, Midas' own summon will launch a follow-up attack, making him synergize perfectly with the likes of Cen Ying and Luke. For best QoL, the first dupe is recommended but not a must, making him friendly for F2P players.
