Introduction
Lost Sword is all about building strong teams and mastering synergies. Success in the game doesn’t come from having a single overpowered unit—it’s about creating a balanced team that maximizes elemental reactions and composition.
Here’s why this tier list matters:
- Team Composition Matters Most: Even the best units in S+ tier need proper teammates to shine. Don’t rely solely on one powerful character.
- Reactions & Synergies Are Key: Pair characters to trigger strong elemental reactions and maximize their potential.

No character is useless in Lost Sword; even low-tier units can shine with max gear, duplicates, cards and a well-built team. This guide is meant to help you focus your efforts and resources efficiently.
Tier Explanation
S+ Tier
A majority of S+ units belong to the Holy element, granting them a unique edge thanks to their lack of elemental weakness. This ensures their dominance across all types of encounters, whether in PvE, PvP, or boss fights.
As for Lua, she stands out as an excellent front-row damage dealer in a role that sees less competition. While the mid and back rows are saturated with top-tier characters, Lua holds her ground with impressive damage output and a fast 6-second cooldown skill.
She synergizes exceptionally well with S+ units, enhancing team performance further. This combination of speed, strength, and reliable damage output allows Lua to compete with the highest-tier characters, making her a dependable DPS carry for any team.
S Tier
A Tier
Ethan, the male protagonist, falls into this tier, with his potential ranging from A to A+ depending on the team and scenario. He is an excellent starter carry for progressing through the early game, but his effectiveness diminishes when facing level 160+ enemies, potentially dropping him to B tier.
These characters are great for PvP and story progression. They’re reliable options as you continue to build your roster and refine your strategies.
B Tier
Some may excel in specific niche scenarios but become less useful in most other content.
C Tier
