I have created a tier list below that helps you understand what heroes you’re aiming for to max out and which ones you will probably replace sooner or later in Narco Empire and hoenstly there are some secret hidden champions from the start that will help you a lot or others that will be more or less a dumpster for resources that you regret a few weeks later.
The Best Heroes, eh, Enforcers in Narco Empire
Yeah, so I might call an enforcer accidentally hero here and there. Just a habit.
Before we get into the list, please undertand some fundamental things about heroes and servers in Narco Empire. The age of your server determines what heroes are available to you, so you will see the heroes in the tier list below ordered by generations. One generation is normally 40 days but with server load and when you joint that can be a few days more or less. But if you start out fresh and do not mess with the server you join, you normally join on a server that is super new so you start with generation 1 enforcers available.
A rough overview of the generations is:
- 1st generation server are younger than 45-47 days
- 2nd generation server are older than 45 to 47 days rolling out on the earliest servers soon
This means, new heroes become available to your server after about 5-6 Lucky Wheels (every 80 days) and that means that the newer heroes normally will change the roaster of heroes. To read the tier list below correctly, you have to check what heroes are available on your server and what generation your server is and then look at the section to see the correct ranking of the heroes. Amazing heroes on 1st generation servers in lordrush aren’t that great on 5th generation servers anymore and so on…
But that also means that it is hard to say “this is the best hero” or “build this hero” since newer heroes are typically stronger but you can’t just wait it out until they are available. For this reason our list below is sorted by the Generation a hero is released in but also showing how a hero performs in a later generation. So if you build a Generation 2 hero to see how many generations that hero will actually be viable in Narco Empire.
Please also check out our new main march guides for all generations here and also check here the guide for the new arena teams in Narco Empire for the full picture and the synergies.
Generation 2 Is Here! We have added the new enforcers + did quite some updates to the builds.
Hot takeIs Chainbreaker really S+?Drag our heroes where you think they belong and share your list. 30 seconds, no account.Fight us on itGeneration 2
Generation 2 heroes, available on Servers that are older than 40 days
Tier S+Wild damage tank in Assault and great damage enabler in Expedition.
Tier ACrazy AoE damage in Exporation and crowd control on top of that, in Expedition quite RNG with the proc chances to be honest.
Tier AA healer in Assault which you not always but often enough later needs but in Expedition she can be quite RNG with her proc chances.
Generation 1
These heroes here are available right away when you start the game
Tier S+Rally starter in Narco Empire from the start throughout later generations so building him right from the start will be valuable. One of the most useful heroes to have in the game but not available to every player, espcially early on.
Tier S+Very solid at start and as you get her through the 7-day login event a hero you will use a lot on 1. Generation server but she has a versatile kit with the stuns and the damage buffing.
Tier S+If you want to get her through the first purchase reward you will get a nice boost on the fresh server with her as she is good but keep in mind she will fall off in later generations so don't think get her, max her and be settled for good here.
Tier A+For Assault only useful as meatshield tank and in Expedition you can use him for his damage reduction.
Tier A+Pretty nice self-scaling and the passive training speed buff is also good. She is one of the best epics and one to build actually in Narco Empire.
Tier A+Great damage in Assault but except very early Expedition on early server he is not too viable.
Tier B+Alright for Assault early in the game and well-rounded for that, but obviously later her stats and skill simply aren't enough anymore.
Tier B+He is alright in Assault but his main cause to Awaken and build him is for the long-term construction boosts of his Expedition skills.
Tier B+Actually pretty alright as damage dealer in Assault for what he is, for Expedition you ony want his passive research speed skill.
Tier B+Fast march speed in Expedition to get away and alright in Assault until you unlock the better legendary heroes in Narco Empire. The Stamina cost reduction early on is pretty useful though.
Tier B+Buffs in Assault alright but for Expedition not really useful and is more there for the passive healing speed increase of the Medical Center.
Tier B+Not really great in Assault as his kit won't scale well and also not really in Expedition. Super early maybe, but that's it.
Tier BMore like the rare version of Sergey in Assault and in Expedition only for the passive Iron Mine income buff.
Tier BCan deal some damage early in Expolration but has only 2 skills and for Expedition only usefull for her Hunting Income buff that works passively.
Tier BHealing Lancer but when you would use him in Assault as rare hero in Narco Empire, you don't need his kit and when you actually need it he is simply not strong enough anymore.
Tier BNot really useful in Assault as you have better heroes unlocked but you can fill and his stun and area damage are not early on in the first days. At the end of the day only interesting for the Coal Mine income passive skill.
Tier BIn Expedition even early you get randomly better heroes and his only interesting part is his Lumber Income passive skill overall.
