Wittle Defender offers a large list of toons for you to choose from, and it’s always advisable to use ones that suit a role well.
Not every unit inside the game is equally effective, and you’ll have to make a combination out of the best five options you have. This tier list will help you separate the best defenders from those who are ordinary at best.
Wittle Defender tier list explained
I have used four different grades to classify all the available characters.
- S-tier characters are the best units to use in your squads. They do a lot of AoE damage, and some of them can be improved further with the help of different upgrades.
- A-tier characters are decent shouts if you have to fill a spot where you can’t use an S-tier unit. These characters might not be as compelling as units on the tier above, but they’re still quite good in most situations.
- B-tier characters are either ordinary to use or are required in niche situations.
- C-tier characters are extremely ordinary at best, and you should replace them as early as possible.
S-tier units
- Demon Spawn: This unit scales up nicely once you level it up. His Hell Slash ability can deal with mob waves quickly, and he’s also potent against single-strike enemies (aka bosses).
- God Ruler: Does the highest amount of damage with few upgrades, and he’s ideally suited in levels where you face a lot of mob waves.
- Sword Saint: Does a lot of damage even without being fully upgraded. She also has one of the best targeting systems of all characters in Wittle Defender.
- Swordmaster: While he is perfect against mobs, Swordmaster’s damage potential falls off against bosses. However, he’s still a great character to use, and the low cooldowns make him pretty beginner-friendly.
- Robot: Not only does he do a lot of damage to mobs and bosses alike, but Robot can also play the role of a tank well after a few upgrades.
A-tier units
- Blazing Archer: Really fun character to have as he can spawn units to do more damage, but his base potential is limited.
- Fire Witch: While she can deal decent damage against mobs and clear waves quite quickly, Fire Witch will require a lot of investment to reduce her cooldowns and make her viable.
- High Priest: Deals decent AoE damage and also unlocks the ability to paralyze opponents with upgrades, but they’re reliant on RNG factors.
- Ice Demon: Summons units that can do damage to enemy units, but Ice Demon’s general effectiveness largely depends on its DPS counterparts.
- Ice Witch: She requires a lot of investment to take her to S-tier, but her base version is good at dishing out damage while locking down enemies with freeze.
- Fire Mage: While he is mediocre against mob waves, Fire Mage is a must-have against bosses. He is, in fact, one of the best units if we consider contests against bosses.
B-tier
- Cat Assassin: Decent DPS unit with good attack speed, but not much to talk about.
- Night Baron: Reaches almost S-tier if you can link him with Swordmaster and Sword Saint, but not much to write about otherwise.
- Thunder Pharao: Like Night Baron, you’ll have to pair him with Robot to make Thunder Pharao perform according to his true potential.
- Ice Mage: This is a pretty ordinary character unless you can manage to put her on the same team as Ice Witch. Doing so raises her AoE damage and ability to clear waves quickly.
- Demon Hunter: While Scattershot is a good ability in certain situations, she has very ordinary damage potential, even with upgrades.
C-tier
There’s not much to say about these units. Their damage potential is limited despite all the updates, so it’s better not to waste your resources on them.
