Complete Monster Hunter Outlanders Adventurer tier list

To classify all the Adventurers, I have used three different tiers.

  • S-tier characters do incredible damage, work well in teams, and worth rerolling for.
  • A-tier characters are strong, but you’ll need to focus on their builds to get the best results.
  • B-tier characters are well-suited for beginners, but they have better alternatives in their respective roles.

S-tier

CharacterReason
Fated AdventurerThe Fated Adventurer is easily the best option. Your player character can use any weapon, element, and adventure class. No other adventurer has this privilege. You can also level up your character easily by gaining the required Insights.
ArkayaSound defensive adventurers are still limited in the current build of the game, which puts Arkaya into the top tier. His ability to stack shields makes him a great choice for beginners. While Arkaya is purely defensive, you will want that kind of support early in your team.
MidoriSeveral good damage dealers are already available in the game, but I love Midori’s rupture mechanic. This is purely because she can exploit enemies’ fire weakness.
KeresDragon teams give you an advantage, which is why Keres comes in. She is specifically required to increase dragon damage, and you can also utilize her Evasive Fang to make her unkillable.

A-tier

CharacterReason
PepperThe only thing stopping Pepper from going to S-tier is the removal of her dodge ability. A buff allows you to do sustainable damage and push her to top tier.
MadelynWhile she remains a useful unit for beginners due to her heals, you’ll find better units to use in teams.
LukaA good damage dealer that you can add pretty early in the game. However,
RhodesThe lack of usable characters with the Ice attribute makes Rhodes an important unit. While he has decent mobility, scaling the damage requires you to complete a lot of steps without making a mistake.

B-tier

There’s not much worth writing about these characters since they’re pretty weak in the current meta. You can use them at the start, but you’ll need to replace them eventually.

  • Raya
  • Pyro
  • Ryunosuke
  • Luxheart
  • Ouyang Varen

We also have Haze and Freya added to the global version of the game, but I haven’t managed to pack either. Based on their kit descriptions, both should be in S-tier. That said, I will assign them ranks once I have tested them enough.
