There are many characters in King Arthur Legends Rise and investing and building them is not a quick effortless action – so I have ranked all characters here to give you a general idea which characters you should invest in early and prioritize to not waste resources on a character that will fall off later in the game and become useless.
Best Characters Ranked Tier List
Important! King Arthur Legends Rise is just in open beta so there’s a lot of subject to change and this is an early version of a tier lits – please check back here frequently as I update this list as much as possible…
Please mind that characters are divided by rarity as legendary characters, when fully build, will be simply a lot stronger than rare one, etc.

Gafrede
NEW
I really need to test this hero more to give it a final ranking, the S3 passive loocks strong, but I relly don#t want to give him a final ranking here in the tier list, yet..
Leader Skill:20% Counter Attack trigger rate in all game modes
Rarity:Legendary
Merlin
S+
Can Freeze and deals good damage to single targets and his S2 has massive Vigor recharge and with his S3 revive he is easily the best hero in King Arthur Legends Rise right now..
Leader Skill:10% Damage Taken Reduction in all battles
Rarity:Legendary
PvE:
PvP:
Guinevere
S+
Attacks single targets with a high chance to remove all of targets buffs, but his shielding is the main reason why this hero works so well right now..
Leader Skill:10% Damage Taken Reduction in origin of Apolleia
Rarity:Legendary
PvE:
PvP:
Gawain
S
Great AoE damage dealer overall and self-buffs ATK and ne of my favorite damage dealers in the game right now..
Leader Skill:20% Attack in World Tree Element Adv. Dungeons
Rarity:Legendary
PvE:
PvP:
Claudas
S
Buffs all ally attack speed (already nice) and also deals AoE damage to all enemies. Just a round and useful package to run in King Arthur Legends Rise, espcially when you can make the Confusion effect work well and is easily one of my favorites right now..
Leader Skill:
Rarity:Legendary
PvE:
PvP:
Bedivere
S
Attacks single targets and buffs up his own Critical Strike rate. Overall quite a selfish character and takes investment to be useful and early game you will find this hero quite lackluster..
Leader Skill:15% Critical Strike Damage in Relic Adv. Dungeon
Rarity:Legendary
PvE:
PvP:
Morgan
S
Attacks single targets with a chance to sleep them to postpone their skills and synergy disruption. Can work well when you can archestrate it well in PvE and has great potential in PvP as well but that depends more on the setup you're facing..
Leader Skill:20% Trigger Rate in all battles
Rarity:Legendary
PvE:
PvP:
Aine
A+
Abnormal Status Immunity which can be incredibly powerful but based on RNG. Still seems like on of the stronger heroes (if not even better)..
Leader Skill:30% Critical Strike Rate in Fortress of Arsellus
Rarity:Legendary
PvE:
PvP:
Sigrun
A+
Attacks single target and apply Marking (which decrease Defense) - great for Nest of Yshgari with the marking but in general with damage based on DEF I'm not the biggest fan in general..
Leader Skill:20% Effect Resist in Nest of Yskalhaig
Rarity:Legendary
PvE:
PvP:
Gillien
A+
Attacks single targets but the more important thing is that she heals the ally with the lowest HP based on max HP, which will be one of your bread-and-butter characters for Story Mode in King Arthur Legends Rise + the turn meter reduction can find her good spots in several setups..
Leader Skill:5% Natural Vigor Recharge (Skill) in Story
Rarity:Legendary
PvE:
PvP:
Lancelot
A+
Single target attacka and stacks burn on them that deals damage over time but also depends more on weather conditions that I appreciate sometimes..
Leader Skill:10% Damage Taken reduction in Hero Adv. Dungeon
Rarity:Legendary
PvE:
PvP:
Lot
A
Increases stats and also Effect Accuracy and his active skill has a chance to make the target forget their passive ability. Can be a little proc-depending at times but overall a great character to run.
Leader Skill:15% Attack in all battles
Rarity:Legendary
PvE:
PvP:
Clarisin
B+
Critical strikes will lower her passive and deal additional damage on skills. Was a rare before and needs a ton of crit to work well and overall I personally find Bedivere just better.
Leader Skill:-
Rarity:Legendary
PvE:
PvP:
Tristan
B
Attacks single targets and can reduce their attack speed. I feel like he is squishy so I am not sure if he is that strong at the end of the day and I also am not a big fan of his Leader Skill.
Leader Skill:15% Attack Speed in Gold/EXP Dungeons
Rarity:Legendary

Rare Characters

Anguish
S+
Boss killer (Forest Affinity) and steals buffs and self-buffs ACC and is simply such a hard-hitting hero that you have to build him..
Leader Skill:15% Attack Speed
Rarity:Rare
Kay
S
Great against bosses and shields. Has multi-hits and inflicts bleed and tunr meter on kill is also a great thing to have with him.
Leader Skill:15% ACC Gold/EXP Dung
Rarity:Rare
Rosier

Amazing leader skill but her bleeds and self-healing make her sustain and deal quite some damage in the long run..
Leader Skill:10% Attack Speed in all battles

Leader Skill:10% HP in all battles

Leader Skill:15% HP in Story Mode
Rarity:Rare
Baudwin

S2 Attack Down can stack and hit twice, just overall great but needs the investment.
Leader Skill:10% Effect Resist
Rarity:Rare
Clementine
A
Great health recovery and AoE healing and can remove debuffs - really shines S3 when she can manipulate the turn meter.

Fredric
A
Good support, espcially with the group ally healing at S2 and the AoE Damage debuff at S3 if you do the invest.
Leader Skill:20% ACC in all battles
Rarity:Rare
Isolde
A
Great Damage-over-time removal, healing-over-time makes her a solid support character in King Arthur Legends Rise..
Leader Skill:
Rarity:Rare
Ralph
A
Can cheese as he will blast a crazy AoE when all team allies die - his S3 team buff is insane.
Leader Skill:10% Attack in Fortress of Acellus
Rarity:Rare
Kyrddin
A
His dmage is based on current target HP which can sclae incredibly well, espcially against bosses..
Leader Skill:-
Rarity:Rare
Uriens
A
Damage is based on Max HP, which scales always nice and the counterattack self-buff is also quite nice.
Leader Skill:-
Rarity:Rare
Bors
B+
Deals damage based on target max HP which scales pretty nicely. His counterattack is also a nice treat even when ally get hit and increases counterattack damage..
Leader Skill:-
Rarity:Rare
Nicholas
B+
Can taunt and hide.
Leader Skill:
Rarity:Rare
Turin
B
has HP recovery and at S3 heals one ally crazy up and chance for strong buff. Very situational, unfortunately. Amazing when procs, horrible if not and you need a massive invest in him..
Leader Skill:20% Resist in all battles
Rarity:Rare
Ban
B
His damage is based in speed and his attack speed can increase, but only makes a great pair with Bors.
Leader Skill:20% Crit Damage in all battles
Rarity:Rare
Cormac

Once build to S2 can AoE damage and can have an impact against large groups that deals massive damage if you do the invest..
Leader Skill:15% DEF in all battles

Uncommon Characters
Here are all the rare characters in King Arthur Legends Rise ranked - if you're looking for the uncommon characters, please scroll down
Tarzhaden
S
.
Leader Skill:
Rarity:Uncommon
Trygve
A+
Mark & Mark Explosion and useful in Newst of Yskalhaig to block and stop the dragon buffs. Also, her shield for her team members (targets all) is based on her own max HP and she is a high-HP character, so there is a lot of value here even if she is only an uncommon character in King Arthur Legends Rise..
Leader Skill:
Rarity:Uncommon
Hector
A+
Use case is shielding on teams with a lot of HP as the shield scales on target max HP, so can have some funky synergy with Trygve with her crazy high HP but also in the earlier stages of the game a useful protective support uncommon..
Leader Skill:
Rarity:Uncommon
Aaron
A
Intersting counter-attack mechanics, even better against Boar Boss..
Leader Skill:
Rarity:Uncommon
Djerit
A
Clearing damage-over-time effects can be really valuable..
Leader Skill:

Maoul

Mark & Mark Explosion and useful in Newst of Yskalhaig to block and stiff the dragon buffs..

Cailleach

Luke

Leader Skill:
Rarity:Uncommon
Argus
B
His passive can heal block Frost Bear and the Pierce Rate also has potential. I don't want to shout out here that he is crazy strong, but has some use-cases and maybe even later with rare/legendaries if you need to tailor a team around that..
Leader Skill:
Rarity:Uncommon
Jack
B
Can remove the abnormal status effects that, for whatever reason, don#t work on Frost Bear right now but that can be a bug. Until that is resoled I rank him lower - if that is a bug and he can actually remove those efffects, he might be one of the best uncommon characters in King Arthur Legends Rise even in mid game..
Leader Skill:
Rarity:Uncommon
Bulk
C+
Apply bleeding, not sure if that is too relevant as you need to tailor a damage over time setup. Can have sme boss uses but overall not too hyped about it right now...
Leader Skill:
Rarity:Uncommon
Jan
C+
Decrease target defense if you need it, but I don't see any area in the game where this is perticularyl useful and can even work in teams with rares or legendaries later on, so not really a great character in the long-term perspective..
Leader Skill:
Rarity:Uncommon
Amelia
C
.
Leader Skill:
Rarity:Uncommon
Douglas
C
.
Leader Skill:
Rarity:Uncommon
Finn
C
Can remove increase target defense with his passive but you need to have increased defense on him. I find it not too great as you need to tailor around and the use-case could potentially only be Frost Bear, which is bugged in terms of buffs right now..
Leader Skill:
Rarity:Uncommon
Killian
C
Some burns but quite long cooldown on them - can be useful against quick-attacking setups where you have the burn but overall not too interesting in my opinion..
Leader Skill:
Rarity:Uncommon
Leppaludy
C
Can stack Damage Taken Reduction but I didn't feel like this is doing too much..
