A lot of the classes in Survive Bikini Bottom have similar abilities like in 99 Nights in the Forest. For example Pioneer is Ranger and Bruiser is Brawler. This makes it really easy to rank them since the game loop is almost the same. Here’s my Survive Bikini Bottom class tier list to help you spend doubloons.

Best Survive Bikini Bottom Class Tier List
The criteria for the best class in Survive Bikini Bottom is based on both rushing to save all residents but also trying to survive until day 250, 500, 1000 and beyond (aka Infinite mode). The S-Tier are the best at Infinite and speed-running. A-Tiers are great alternatives with less late-game benefits. B-Tier are situational. Lastly, C-Tier are only good early and are otherwise underpowered while D-Tier is the never-use category. Let’s dive into each class individually below.
S-Tier Classes
| S-Tier Classes | Ranking Reason | Abilities |
|---|---|---|
 GG Rockstar | • The best class in the game • You start with the most powerful weapon for night 100+ raids where kiting enemies with ranged weapons is much better than melee (This is because the chum bucket brutes deal so much damage) • You also get really good armor to help with that • Rush for the energy restore upgrade for reliable damage, otherwise the guitar is weak late-game due to fast energy loss • Currently hard to unlock F2P since the Badges don’t give enough Doubloons so you must farm more from chests | Starts with GG Rockstart Armor and Goober Guitar (Requires Energy, not ammo) Perk 1: Excellent visibility at night Perk 2: Goober Guitar does more damage Perk 3: Defeating enemies restores Guitar energy |
 Doodle Bandit | • Amazing for speed runs and good for infinite wave farming if you know how to dodge in melee • You get good armor and high melee DPS that deals well with crowds due to the poison damage-over-time spread • Overall weaker than GG since you’re encouraged to melee but one of the best classes in the game | Starts with Doodle Armor and Doodle Pencil Perk 1: Poison from your weapon is stronger Perk 2: +25% chance to spread poison on kill Perk 3: Attacks deal extra damage to poisoned targets |
 Bruiser | •• Bruiser is weaker than all S-Tier classes but the reason I put him here is that he’s excellent for speed running • You can save pretty much all residents fast with that high melee damage+defense if you rush a good melee weapon via mailman or chests • In the final SpongeBob resident labyrinth you’ll constantly be taking damage so that HP regen helps a lot • Not good for infinite since melee eventually becomes weak since the enemies deal so much damage and you want to be barricaded (Stock up on bandages) | Starts with Bubble Wrap Armor Perk 1: You cannot use ranged weapons but you have +40% HP and +30% melee damage Perk 2: You get 10% HP regeneration over time Perk 3: 5% chance to block any damage |
A-Tier Classes
| A-Tier Classes | Ranking Reason | Abilities |
|---|---|---|
 Pioneer | • The strongest class in the early to mid-game with Ketchup Blaster that can instantly save 2 or 3 residents with good ammo use • Depending on how lucky you get with the 10% ignore ammo loss you can end up being good for longer • It’s still A-Tier because you don’t get strong permanent buffs like Bruiser • Once you run out of ammo it’s hard to find more ammo | Starts with Flashlight, Ketchup Blaster and 18x Ketchup Ammo Perk 1: Start with 18 Ketchup Ammo Perk 2: 10% chance to save ammo on use Perk 3: Start with 30 Ketchup Ammo |
 Mercenary | • High melee damage right from the start that allows you to speed run the game, especially with that starting Scrap • Similar to Pioneer but you have to learn melee mechanics so you don’t get hit much (For example, waiting for jelly lightning then going in for the kill) • The Broken Motorcycle is nice because you can also trade it to the mailman later • Unlike Bruiser, you don’t get perma melee/health buffs so Bruiser out scales you once it gets a better weapon • No defensive buffs so you’ll have to switch to ranged later since Waves after 100 get really hard for melee users • Not worth the Robux | Starts with Mercenary Cutlass Perk 1: Spawn with a Broken Motorcycle nearby to scrap Perk 2: Start with 2 Sea Mines Perk 3: Deal higher damage as your Health gets lower |
 Doctor | • Good for both supporting a speed running team and also an infinite run where you try to go for 250 to 1000+ nights • The main benefit is the 5x faster revives that can get your team back up in raids really fast and with more HP • Becomes bad if your team plays good and doesn’t die | Starts with 2x Bandages Perk 1: Revive 5x faster Perk 2: Revive players with more Health and less Hunger Perk 3: Replace one of your Bandages with a Medkit |
B-Tier Classes
| B-Tier Classes | Ranking Reason | Abilities |
|---|---|---|
 Cursed Soul | • Can be really good if you high roll so it’s a very situational class • Basically allows you to get a higher tier weapon or armor from early chests so that you can speedrun • Also good for farming Doubloons for unlocking other classes • That said if you low roll it’s really weak • Plus, it gets weaker as the game goes on so it’s not good for survival runs where you try to survive for as long as possible | Starts with Random Item Perk 1: 50% chance to get a lower-tier item from a chest and 50% chance to get a higher-tier one Perk 2: The odds raise to 60% for a better item Perk 3: Increased chance for Doubloons to spawn in chests |
 Trapper | • Really good early for rushing high-level jelly hives for walls and later the speed boost station Quickster Pad • Plus has a support buff to increase food drops to keep your team fed early to mid-game • Becomes gradually worse the longer the game goes on | Starts with Jellyfish Trap Perk 1: Increased enemy food drop rate Perk 2: Start with +1 Jellyfish Trap Perk 3: Increased enemy food drop rate |
C-Tier Classes
| C-Tier Classes | Ranking Reason | Abilities |
|---|---|---|
 Jellyfisher | • You get more Jelly drops for rushing hive level-ups and crafting upgrades • Speeds up early farming with the Good Net allowing others to grab mailman upgrades • It’s not that much extra Jelly to be honest and the defensive buff is useless since you can just dodge jellyfish lightning bolts | Starts with Good Net Perk 1: 20% chance to get +1 bonus Jelly from Jellyfish Perk 2: 10% chance to block damage from Jellyfish Perk 3: 20% chance to get +1 or +2 bonus Jelly from Jellyfish |
 Defender | • Speeds up walling off your base with Bamboo Walls and Shelves so you get some extra scrap and Jelly basically • Start becoming weak around mid-game and gets abysmally weak later | Starts with x2 Bamboo Wall Perk 1: Start with 2 Bamboo Walls Perk 2: Start with 1 Sea Mine Perk 3: Start with 2 Sea Mine |
 Drifter | • Good for rushing chests early if you can bait out enemies out of the buildings and then go in and open the chest • The extra space is nice because jellyfish usually drop 3 Jelly allowing you to farm 2 jellyfish and then bring back all 6 Jelly instead of going 1 by 1 or leaving some behind • This time saving is why it’s C and not D • Otherwise really weak | Perk 1: +2 backpack slots Perk 2: Open chests 25% faster Perk 3: Chance to get Scrap as a bonus drop from chests |
D-Tier Classes
| D-Tier Classes | Ranking Reason | Abilities |
|---|---|---|
 Camp Scout | • Flashlights are common and visibility isn’t that big of a problem • The weakest class in the game • The Hunger drain slow is okay but you’ll be bathing in food later so it’s not big deal | Starts with Flashlight Perk 1: 10% reduced Hunger drain Perk 2: Increased visibility at night Perk 3: Start with Blue Jelly Patty |
