Here is our For Honor Tier List where we have ranked all the best characters in the game based on their overall strength and usability in the game.
To succeed in For Honor, you’ll need practice, talent, and, most crucially, the right characters for the current meta, which is why this For Honor Tier List is so important. In For Honor, there are dozens of characters, each with their own attack patterns and skills. Our goal with this list is to rank them in order of total power, so you can figure out which characters will help you win the most.
We did our best to rate all For Honor characters in order of overall strength. We have not only listed the greatest characters in this tier list but also the names of the worst characters to avoid if you want to win all fights. Before we get into our tier list, let me just say that it covers all three of the most popular modes: Dominion, Brawl, and Duel.
For Honor Tier List
S Tier
On this tier, we’ll find the game’s most powerful characters. If your opponent does not have someone from this Tier, you will have a significant edge. These characters deal a lot of damage and have a lot of stamina.
- Kyoshin (Hybrid)
- Warlord (Heavy)
- Warmonger (Vanguard)
- Conqueror (Heavy)
- Nobushi (Hybrid)
- Jiang Jun (Heavy)
- Shinobi (Assassin)
A Tier
They may not be at the top of the list, but that is no reason to dismiss them. This Tier’s heroes have a 100% chance of defeating S-Tier heroes. We’ve seen it happen a lot, we’ve done it a lot, and regrettably, it can happen to anyone at any time. They may even have an advantage in some specific match-ups. Simply choose a hero from this Tier that you prefer and leave the rest to fate.
- Hitokiri (Heavy)
- Shugoki (Heavy)
- Kensei (Vanguard)
- Black Prior (Heavy)
- Shaolin (Hybrid)
- Nuxia (Assassin)
- Berserker (Assassin)
B Tier
This Tier’s characters aren’t so much lacking in power as they are in good match-ups. Unfortunately, in this game, power isn’t the most significant factor. To dominate the arena, you’ll need a combination of strong attacks, good defense, and the ability to actually land these assaults on your opponent. If you choose these heroes, make sure they aren’t assigned to a character who opposes you.
- Jormungandr (Heavy)
- Highlander (Hybrid)
- Raider (Vanguard)
- Gryphon (Hybrid)
- Zhanhu (Assassin)
- Shaman (Assassin)
C Tier
We’re approaching the stage when you should seriously evaluate whether or not you want to play these characters. Of course, there will be times when a character from this list dominates a character from a higher tier, but the characters from this Tier will lose most of the time. Nonetheless, they are ecstatic to be able to play.
- Orochi (Assassin)
- Centurion (Hybrid)
- Peacekeeper (Assassin)
- Valkyrie (Hybrid)
D Tier
The most important thing to remember about the heroes in this tier is that you should love playing them because there aren’t many benefits to doing so. In comparison to most other heroes, their attacks deal less damage, and they must land many more hits to win against most opponents. Picking them should be done with extreme caution.
- Gladiator (Assassin)
- Warden (Vanguard)
- Tiandi (Vanguard)
F Tier
We’ve arrived at the bottom of our list, which is perhaps the most significant section. Because you must remember to deliberately avoid these heroes. There are almost no advantages to picking them.
- Aramusha (Hybrid)
- Lawbringer (Hybrid)
For Honor Dominion Mode Tier List
Dominion is a multiplayer mode in which four players from different teams fight to control numerous zones on a map. The more zones you gain, the more game points you’ll get. If players stay on Points A and C, they will receive a bonus of two points.
When one side reaches 1000 points, the other team begins to break, which means that each player on that team is unable to respawn unless revived by a comrade. A team must defeat the other team and eliminate all of their members to win a battle.
