Building the best team in Lost Sword is all about picking out the strongest back, middle and front line and I'm here to outline the most powerful options. I'll be splitting the roster into three rankings for DPS, Supports (heals/buffs/debuffs) as well as Tanks for a good front line. You'll find the four classes spread across these three rankings and sometimes a single character will fill two roles. Let's analyze them all and find the best characters in our Lost Sword tier list for both mid-to-late game PVE and PVP.

Lost Sword Damage Tier List
Whether it's wave clear, burst damage or sustained DPS this Lost Sword DPS tier list outlines the best characters currently. Think of the S-Tier as the best characters for the role with Tiamat excelling in DPS above the others and Lancelot being quite tanky too as you scale her HP. The A-Tier are great secondary options if you don't have S rankers. B-Tier are great options that work in specific scenarios (for example Isabel is also a support). Lastly, C and D are underpowered options or simply 3-star characters that lack power for mid-to-late game. Let's dive into characters separately with some DPS highlights below.
Best DPS Characters in Lost Sword
| DPS Highlights | Notes & Tips |
|---|---|
 Tiamat Holy/Wizard/Back |
• Highest AOE damage in Lost Sword • Ultimate deals some of the best damage in the game and then resets her Active CD so you can spam it • Deletes waves • Her Holy element means she's amazing in any mode since it ignores elemental resistances • Needs a tank |
 Lancelot Radiance/Knight/Front |
• Amazing melee DPS and can get quite tanky too serving as your main DPS carry with Clumsy Affection card or off-tank • Requires a lot of investment to stack her HP since that's how she scales (also requires Dupes to be great) • One of the best PVP characters in the game if you stack her HP really high • Get HP Pets • Struggles against single Nature enemy bosses |
 Kay Fire/Knight/Front |
• Similar to Lancelot in that she's a great DPS but also tanky as she's switching forms with her Ultimate • Still she's a much better DPS than tank due to her great attack speed, crit, and Active CD reduction on hit so stack attack speed and attack power • Powerful combo with Galahad as off-tank and with Dian Cecht |
 Ran Holy/Knight/Front |
• Ran is amazing due to her DPS and team-wide utility by shredding enemy defenses • She's also Holy thus ignoring elemental resistances • While her animations can be long her raw damage and utility easily make her S-Tier |
 Lua Shock/Knight/Front |
• Lua is all about her Shocked status effect to boost damage and benefitting from the Rain weather • She has the highest Shock uptime in the game and her attack damage can be drastically boosted in Rain • Just note that it never rains in Britannia so skip Lua for that |
 Lisa Chaos/Archer/Middle |
• One of the best wave clear characters with excellent AOE damage due to her Ult and Active • Similar to Tiamat but a middle line Archer with fast animations • Combine with her card Smile in the Dark to boost her basic attack AOE as well |
 Cristina Fire/Wizard/Middle |
• Cristina can be both a sustained Burn DPS who is core for a Fire team but also a support (more on that later) • Having her either as a DPS or Support increases your overall damage due to her % Attack party passive |
 Anessa Frost/Knight/Front |
• A melee AOE unit that's all about big damage with her Active and massive attack speed buffs with her Ult • That said, her core use is setting up her Freeze skills to deal massive burst damage to enemies |
 Enya Fire/Archer/Back |
• Enya is a great secondary DPS unit until you get the higher tiers due to her sustained DPS between Crossbow and Machine Gun form • That said, her card Manager's Dignity benefits the entire team's DPS (Except healers) |
Lost Sword Support Tier List
The Lost Sword support tier list focuses on characters with the most healing potential but also characters who can buff your team's damage or drastically debuff enemies. Currently, the best Healers are Isolde and Dian Cecht while Merlin has some amazing debuffs and Galahad, Erin and Isabel being the best buffers. There's not bad support in the game so there's no D-Tier just make sure to include 2 or 3 characters from here depending on your DPS and Tank choices. The number of supports you should include depends on if you picked hybrid characters from other tier lists like Lancelot, Isabel or Galahad who can fill multiple roles. Also note that Esmeralda or Bedivere are great non-5-Star supports that are easier to get. Let's dive into some individual support highlights.
Best Supports in Lost Sword
| Support Highlights | Notes & Tips |
|---|---|
 Dian Cecht Radiance, Support, Middle |
• The best Knight buffer in the game boosting Melee Attack damage and Critical Damage. • Also has excellent sustained heals, shields and damage reduction. |
 Isolde Nature, Support, Back |
• Better burst heals than Dian Cecht and also has damage reduction • Will carry you through progression mid-to-late game with heals • Just don't bring her to Raids since her lack of powerful buffs makes her fall of a bit |
 Merlin Holy, Wizard, Middle |
• One of the best crowd-control debuffers in the game • Best Freeze uptime to stunlock fights and also reduce defenses • Water Dragon's Blessing card boosts Magic DPS • Can also boost crit rate for allies with her passive |
 Galahad Radiance, Knight, Front |
• More of a front line tank which we'll mention below but Galahad also has some powerful support buffs • Boosts Archer and Wizard attacks and increases your team's overall defenses |
 Ria Fire, Support, Back |
• You'll probably see Ria in all late game Raids since she highly flexible in any team to provide great healing, damage buffs, and critical damage boosts |
 Guinevere Frost, Healer, Back |
• The revive character in the game that can bring your front line back to life • Also dispels debuffs on allies and has decent defensive buffs |
 Isabel Frost, Archer, Middle |
• While Isabel has some decent DPS she shines as a support • This is because she can grant your entire team damage immunity for several hits |
Lost Sword Tank Tier List
Tank variety is scarce in Lost Sword with the best tanks even being hybrids that fill other roles like Lancelot and Kay being DPS and Galahad being Support. That said these three are still the best ones offering both great defenses and tanking power as well as off-DPS and utility. I did not include Ethan and Urien since they're solely early game options that you want to replace ASAP. Let's dive into the specific tanks below.
Best Tanks in Lost Sword
| Tank Highlight | Notes & Tips |
|---|---|
|
Galahad Radiance, Knight, Front |
• The best tank in Lost Sword to protect and support your team and extremely tanky with damage immunity, damage reduction, and the card Knight of Purity shield • Buffs your team's damage and defenses • Combos well with Kay for all modes to offset the elemental resistances |
|
Lancelot Radiance/Knight/Front |
• Can be a decent tank option since you're stacking HP anyway but you need to invest heavily into dupe progression, equipment, and pets |
 Gawain Nature/Knight/Front |
• A tank that's not as tanky as Galahad but has a lot of stuns to crowd-control enemies and bosses • Counters enemy buffs by increasing self DPS • One of the best PVP tanks due to the stuns |
|
Kay Fire/Knight/Front |
• In addition to being a great DPS what makes Kay a good tank as well is her innate damage immunity and her ignore death Immortality passive • Pairs well with Galahad to offset the elemental weaknesses of Radiance |
Lost Sword Reroll Guide

- Character Summon Banner: Once you've claimed everything go to the Character Summon banner and use all your pulls to try to get S-Tiers or your favorite A-Tiers from our DPS, Support and Tank tier lists above. Galahad is a universally useful character to have both as your main frontline, Merlin and Isolde are good supports, and Tiamat, Lancelot or Kay are great DPSs.
- Reroll Account: If you aren't happy with your Summons you can reroll your account by going into Settings on the right then Account. Click on Delete Account and type in "The reset will begin." including the period and hit confirm.
