DNA (Duet Night Abyss) is very different from other new mobile RPGs, with no character gacha and the whole game extremely F2P-friendly. Still, even though you can unlock all characters by just grinding, there are some that you should focus on first. To help you learn which characters are the best and why, here is our definitive Duet Night Abyss tier list!
Duet Night Abyss Characters Tier List
- S Tier: The best characters in Duet Night Abyss, and the ones that will carry you through end-game content.
- A Tier: Very strong characters that aren’t as high-priority as the S-tier ones, but are still meta for various content.
- B Tier: Strong characters that can be viable, but aren’t as versatile or as OP as the S/A-tier ones.
TIER LIST: The tier list is updated for the Global Release. We will continue to test out characters and tweak it until it perfectly matches the in-game meta.
In the tier list above, you can check out the ranking of all characters in DNA (Duet Night Abyss) based on their overall power for all game content. Generally, S/A-tier characters are the best, and there is a very small gap in performance between those two tiers. You’ll need both S and A-tier characters to make the most meta teams. On the other hand, B-tier characters can be useful, but there are much better options.
So, take this tier list mostly as a priority guide on which characters to get/upgrade first. Also, below we outlined the best weapons and teams for each character. Check out our best teams guide and weapons tier list for more in-depth information.

S Tier – Best Characters in Duet Night Abyss
| Character | Details | Best Weapons | Best Team |
|---|---|---|---|
![]() Truffle and Filbert | Anemo Support AoE Summon Heal Buff Truffle and Filbert is a support, mainly for Anemo teams. However, she can work on any other team as well, because of her broken utility. She has a summon that fights with her, dealing AoE damage, healing allies, buffing their DMG, and giving her a mount to fight from. She is just really strong and arguably the best and most versatile support in Duet Night Abyss. | ![]() Undying Oneiros ![]() Arclight Apocalypses | Anyone |
![]() Psyche | Anemo DPS Single-Target Consonance Weapon Flight Psyche is a main DPS for Anemo teams, and the best single-target DPS in Duet Night Abyss. Her buff transforms her, giving her flight and massive DPS boosts and shields, while consuming her HP instead of Sanity. Her whole kit is so good at just going alone and dealing extreme sustained DPS, while staying safe. She is simply OP and the overall best DPS in DNA. | ![]() Elpides Abound ![]() Rendhusk | ![]() Truffle and Filbert ![]() Protagonist |
![]() Lisbell | Lumino DPS Melee AoE Consonance Weapon Lisbell is the main DPS for Lumino teams, with the ability to transform her weapon into a wide-AoE-attacking sword, with insane base damage and ramping up DPS as the combo counter increases. She is insanely strong, and one of the overall best DPSs in Duet Night Abyss. | ![]() Ironforger ![]() Rendhusk | ![]() Protagonist ![]() Truffle and Filbert |
![]() Fina | Lumino Support AoE Control Buff DoT Fina is one of the best and most versatile supports in Duet Night Abyss, with the ability to buff ally DPS of various elements, deal very good AoE damage, and slow enemies. Her utility is amazing, and she can work on literally any team as a DPS support. | ![]() Blade Amberglow ![]() Dreamweaver’s Feather | Anyone |
![]() Daphne | Anemo Support Ranged AoE Control Heal Buff DoT Debuff Daphne is a support who provides AoE heals, CC, DoTs, damage reduction, and a bunch of other utility for the team. She is one of the most versatile supports in DNA, and one of the best you can use with Anemo DPSs because of her Crit Rate passive buff. | ![]() Blade Amberglow ![]() Arclight Apocalypses | ![]() Psyche ![]() Truffle and Filbert |
![]() Rebecca | Hydro DPS Melee AoE DoT Summon Skill DMG Rebecca is a main DPS for Hydro teams, with the ability to summon creatures that inherit her stats and deal continuous AoE DMG to enemies. She inflicts the Poison of Love debuff, dealing DoT DMG and transferring the DoT when executing enemies. She is especially strong against mobs and for general progression, as her AoE clear is unmatched. | ![]() Siren’s Kiss ![]() Rendhusk | ![]() Tebethe ![]() Truffle and Filbert |
![]() Hellfire | Pyro DPS Sub-DPS Tank Melee AoE Taunt HP Regen Skill DMG Hellfire is a melee bruiser who doubles as a DPS and a tank for Pyro teams. She is incredibly tanky, can taunt enemies, and her sustained DPS is good, especially when you min-max her HP. She is also good as a support, and one of the easiest to play/most beginner-friendly characters in Duet Night Abyss. | ![]() Punitive Inferno ![]() Destructo | ![]() Lynn ![]() Truffle and Filbert |
![]() Lady Nifle | Lumino DPS Ranged AoE Control Debuff Skill DMG Lady Nifle is a ranged AoE main DPS for Lumino teams, with the ability to spawn Lumino / Umbra fields that deal massive DMG and debuff/CC enemies. Her kit makes her very good both for farming and bosses, though she needs a bit of investment to start popping off. Once you reach the end-game, she becomes one of the best AoE DPSs in Duet Night Abyss. | ![]() Blade Amberglow ![]() Embla Inflorescence | ![]() Truffle and Filbert ![]() Fina |
![]() Protagonist | Lumino Support Sub-DPS AoE Buff Shield Protagonist is the main support/buffer for any weapon-using DPS, as they provide Weapon DMG and Crit Rate boosts, as well as decent AoE DPS and shields. However, to become really OP as a support, you’ll need to invest a lot into them. | ![]() Remanent Reminiscence ![]() Dreamweaver’s Feather | ![]() Lisbell ![]() Truffle and Filbert |
![]() Lynn | Pyro DPS Sub-DPS Ranged AoE Laceration Consonance Weapon Lynn is a main/sub-DPS for Pyro teams, with excellent ranged DPS and an buff that turns her into a rapid-firing sentry, capable of dishing out extremely high damage each second for a prolonged period of time. Also, her Laceration passive makes her especially valuable when using multiple ranged characters. | ![]() Blade Amberglow ![]() Bluecurrent Pulse | ![]() Truffle and Filbert ![]() Hellfire |
![]() Tabethe | Hydro Support Sub-DPS Ranged Single-Target Buff Control Summon Tebethe is a support/sub-DPS for Hydro teams, with the ability to summon tentacles that attack nearby enemies and CC them, while buffing ally Hydro DMG. Her DPS / Skill DMG buffs are really good, and her support value is amazing, making her one of the best supports/sub-DPSs for any team, especially Hydro ones. | ![]() Shackle of Lonweolf ![]() Arclight Apocalypses | ![]() Rebecca ![]() Truffle and Filbert |
A Tier – Very Strong Characters
| Character | Details | Best Weapons | Best Team |
|---|---|---|---|
![]() Phantasio | Umbro DPS Melee AoE Transform Phantasio is the main DPS for Umbro teams and the best DPS of that element in DNA right now. He has a very good range, mobility, and DPS, and his buff transforms his melee and ranged attacks, giving him unique animations, OP passives, and extra damage. He performs extremely well as the main DPS, regardless of content. | ![]() Blade Amberglow ![]() Blast Artistry | ![]() Truffle and Filbert ![]() Fina |
![]() Outsider | Anemo DPS Melee Single-Target Stealth Transform Outsider is a single-target main DPS for Anemo teams whose kit revolves around going in and out of stealth, while proccing his Fang Spikes on enemies to buff his own and deal massive damage. His buff transforms his HP into a shield, while providing him with passive buffs. He is especially good for bosses, but he requires finesse to maximize his DPS. | ![]() Exiled Fangs ![]() Rendhusk | ![]() Truffle and Filbert ![]() Daphne |
![]() Berenica | Umbro DPS Melee AoE Consonance Weapon Barenica is one of the main DPSs for Umbro teams. Her main trait is that her buff skill transforms her weapon, making it launch waves of energy with each swing. She lacks utility, but her overall DPS is very good, especially in the early game. | ![]() Remanent Reminiscence ![]() Blast Artistry | ![]() Truffle and Filbert ![]() MC |
![]() Rhythm | Electro DPS Sub-DPS AoE Control Buff Skill DMG Rhythm is a main/sub-DPS for Electro teams, with very high skill damage, mobility, speed buffs for allies, and plenty of CC. Her AoE damage is very good, and because of her strong CC, she can clear mobs extremely easily while taking no damage, making her OP for progression and farming. However, her single-target DPS isn’t that good. | ![]() Blade Amberglow ![]() Exiled Thunderwyrm | ![]() Truffle and Filbert ![]() Sibylle |
![]() Randy | Electro Support AoE Control Debuff Shield Barrier Buff DoT Randy is a defensive Electro support who provides the team with shields, projectile blocking, DEF buffs, DoTs, CC, and debuffs. He is very versatile and is especially useful if you’re using very squishy characters. However, more DPS is often much better than Randy’s defensive utility, making him a low-priority support to get. | ![]() Ingenious Tactcs ![]() Arclight Apocalypses | ![]() Rhythm ![]() Truffle and Filbert |
![]() Sibylle | Electro DPS Sub-DPS Melee AoE Summon Skill DMG Sibylle is a main/sub-DPS for Electro teams, with decent AoE damage that scales heavily with her Max HP, and the ability to summon creatures/fields that constantly deal damage to nearby enemies. Both her single-target and AoE damage are solid, but not as insane as some of the other DPSs in Duet Night Abyss. | ![]() Undying Oneiros ![]() Exiled Thunderwyrm | ![]() Sibylle ![]() Truffle and Filbert |
B Tier – Strong Characters
| Character | Details | Best Weapons | Best Team |
|---|---|---|---|
![]() Yale and Oliver | Pyro DPS AoE Control Summon Yale and Oliver is a Pyro main DPS whose kit revolves around deploying mines that deal AoE damage and proc different effects depending on which mine was deployed. She also slows down enemies with her buff, while stopping her bombs from detonating, allowing her to stack them, and deal even more damage. She requires some skill, but her AoE DMG is very good. | ![]() Punitive Inferno ![]() Osteobreaker | ![]() Truffle and Filbert ![]() Lynn |
![]() Margie | Pyro DPS Sub-DPS AoE Skill DMG Control Margie is an AoE main/sub-DPS for Pyro teams, with decent sustained DPS from her skills, as well as reliable CC. She can also work as a support because of her passive buffs. However, compared to most other AoE DPSs and supports, her kit is underwhelming, making her a low-priority character. | ![]() Wanewraith ![]() Excresduo | ![]() Truffle and Filbert ![]() Lynn |
