Echoes of Mana Character Tier List

Echoes of Mana is the new mobile game from Square Enix and Wright Flyer Studios, best known for working on Another Eden, another popular mobile game that features lots of Chrono Trigger inspirations. While the character pool in the game is still relatively small right now, you’ll probably want to try to give your account the best possible head start by upgrading characters that are actually good. With that in mind, we’ve put together an Echoes of Mana tier list to help you out.

Quick disclaimer: as the game is only a week old, do take this list with a grain of salt. We’re fairly confident in our rankings after spending a considerable amount of time with the game, but these rankings will likely shift as more players start to tackle current endgame content.

Echoes of Mana 4-Star Character Tier List

  • S-Tier: Angela, Sumo
  • A-Tier: Riesz, Duran, Shiloh, Popoi, Keldrick

In all honesty, none of the current 4-star units are bad at all, though we’d definitely give the edge to Angela and Sumo as the two best characters you can pull right now. Angela is easily the best mage in the game, thanks to her powerful AoE ice spells and her party buff. She does burn through MP pretty quickly, so watch out for that.

Sumo is easily the best tank in Echoes of Mana at this time, with a high HP pool and the ability to deal tons of damage. His biggest boon, however, is his ability to heal up his allies, which will become invaluable as you tackle later content.

The other 4-star units are all solid in their own right, and make no mistake; their base stats are much, much higher than that of the 3-stars. If you can start the game with any combination of three 4-star units, you’ll be in very good shape, but we’d recommend trying to go for Angela and Sumo.

Keldrick is the first banner character to get added to Echoes of Mana since the game’s launch, and he’s a wind-based sword user, which means that he’d be a great addition to your roster if you’re trying to work on a mono element team. If you’re not, he’s still a decent pickup if you don’t already have Reisz, and he works well as a chainer and helping to get your combos up.

That being said, if you’ve already got Reisz, and you’re not trying to specialize in a wind-based team, he’s a pretty easy skip if you’d rather save your Spirit Crystals.

3-Star Character Tier List

If you weren’t able to fill out your main party slots with three 4-star units, don’t worry. Echoes of Mana does feature quite a few 3-star units that are very serviceable as well.

  • S-Tier: Charlotte, Serafina, Quilto/Quilta
  • A-Tier: Hawkeye, Primm (Water/Fist), Kevin, Duran (Fire/Sword), Honeycomb, Raxa, Randi
  • B-Tier: Watts, Nicco

If you weren’t able to pick up Sumo, 3-star Charlotte is a very worthy addition to your party as a support character. She provides great healing for everyone, and if you do have Sumo, she can be paired with him as a sub character to give your party a slight elemental boost. If you don’t have Charlotte for whatever reason or don’t want to use her, Honeycomb also serves as a decent healer.

For the DPS options, Raxa and Hawkeye can round out your party nicely, while Randi is a freebie you can get from doing the current Trail to the Toughest event.

That does it for our Echoes of Mana character tier list. Be sure to search for Twinfinite for more tips and information on the game.
