Watcher of Realms Best Heroes Tier List (November 2023) – with Falcia

watcher of realms best hero tier list november 2023 with falcia

Watcher of Realms has a lot of heroes and also a lot of game modes – hard to decide which heroes are overall good and useful, right? Well, I have decided to make this tier list of her to give you a good overview what heroes are good in Watcher of Realms and which ones are rather meh.

Looking at how much time and resources it takes to build a hero, this should help you decide which ones you invest in and which ones you can rather skip.

The Best Heroes in Watcher of Realms

Alright, below you will find the full list of all the heroes I have evaluated and tested so far in Watcher of Realms and if you open the ‘Show More’ of a hero, you will see a short description and how they do in certain game modes.

Update! Added the new limited hero Falcia

Please also make sure to check out my freshly udpated tier list for the artifacts in Watcher of Realms here.

Here is the new faction at a glance:

Search:

  • SalazarS+
    Great single-target burst damage if you need it - but that is really useful in most game modes in Watcher of RealmsClass: FighterCampaign: A+Void Rift: A+Guild Boss: S+Tide: SRaids: B+Best Salazar Build
  • ElowynS+
    Best overall healer in the game and useful everywhere and in any team.Class: HealerCampaign: S+Void Rift: S+Guild Boss: S+Tide: S+Raids: SBest Elowyn Build
  • DoloresS+
    The thing with Dolores is that her healing is not enough to make her heal alone but a generally good base healing that bases on target stats as well so she can run end-game with maxed legendaries as well. Her main treat is her ultimate that will increase the attack of all allies in range (also by target stats percentage) and she will bump up everyone and is useful practically everywhere and up to end-game.Class: HealerCampaign: BVoid Rift: BGuild Boss: S+Tide: C+Raids: A+Best Dolores Build
  • ViernaS+
    Area damage and clearing waves, this is waht you use her best so only Guild Boss is a weak spot for her, otherwise useful in pretty much all game modes of Watcher of RealmsClass: MageCampaign: SVoid Rift: SGuild Boss: BTide: SRaids: SBest Vierna Build
  • HatssutS+
    Can be used pretty much everywhere and crucial for Gear Raid IIIClass: MarksmanCampaign: SVoid Rift: SGuild Boss: ATide: S+Raids: S+Best Hatssut Build
  • ArroganceS
    Great overall damage output makes him a useful ehero in pretty much all game modes and ges well with many setups.Class: FighterCampaign: SVoid Rift: SGuild Boss: STide: S+Raids: A+Best Arrogance Build
  • ZilituS
    One of the best heroes for Guild Boss to deal massive damageClass: FighterCampaign: A+Void Rift: A+Guild Boss: S+Tide: SRaids: ABest Zilitu Build
  • LayaS
    Solid healing and damage buff but also increases rage.Class: HealerCampaign: B+Void Rift: B+Guild Boss: STide: A+Raids: A+Best Laya Build
  • MorriganS
    Deals solid area damage and boost othersClass: MageCampaign: B+Void Rift: B+Guild Boss: CTide: A+Raids: ABest Morrigan Build
  • TorodorA+
    Self-reviving tank, I think this justify his rank here easily. Low maintenance and good impact and deals quite some damage when awakened quite a bit.Class: DefenderCampaign: AVoid Rift: AGuild Boss: STide: ARaids: BBest Torodor Build
  • OlagueA+
    One of the best defenders in Watcher of Realms also due to his shielding from his passive ability that is basically activa the whole time.Class: DefenderCampaign: S+Void Rift: S+Guild Boss: DTide: A+Raids: C+Best Olague Build
  • BrokkirA+
    Amazing defender in Watcher of Realms with shielding, fatal damage resisting and immunity and he also gives defense buffs to allies as well.Class: DefenderCampaign: S+Void Rift: S+Guild Boss: DTide: SRaids: C+Best Brokkir Build
  • AbominationA+
    Amazing offesive tank with high base HP and useful in many game modes.Class: FighterCampaign: AVoid Rift: AGuild Boss: A+Tide: SRaids: B+Best Abomination Build
  • WrathA+
    Good damage and can watch himself without needing much support - pretty much plug-and-playClass: FighterCampaign: A+Void Rift: A+Guild Boss: STide: SRaids: BBest Wrath Build
  • LugaruA+
    Good bleed damage dealer but needs a support as he will damage himself and is not that sustainable with his kit.Class: FighterCampaign: AVoid Rift: AGuild Boss: A+Tide: ARaids: BBest Lugaru Build
  • AjaxA+
    Nukes AoE like crazy and applies burn. Insane damage dealer if you manage to pull and build him. Downside? Yes, the deploy costs make him sometimes not viable as it takes too long to get him on the map...Class: MageCampaign: B+Void Rift: B+Guild Boss: CTide: B+Raids: B+Best Ajax Build
  • KhametA+
    Deals burst area damage and can deal well with tank enemies.Class: MageCampaign: A+Void Rift: A+Guild Boss: C+Tide: A+Raids: ABest Khamet Build
  • TwinfiendA+
    Incredible for Guild Boss once you got his Awakening 1 to support Zilitu as your damage dealer in Guild Boss.Class: MageCampaign: B+Void Rift: B+Guild Boss: S+Tide: ARaids: BBest Twinfiend Build
  • SetramA+
    Good single-target damage that excels in range which can be so useful in certain situations but also in general a good hero in Watcher of Realms. He can be your last resort with his ultimate if things get messyClass: MarksmanCampaign: SVoid Rift: SGuild Boss: S+Tide: SRaids: ABest Setram Build
  • SilasA+
    High single-target percing damage and pretty reliable damage output overall.Class: MarksmanCampaign: SVoid Rift: SGuild Boss: STide: A+Raids: BBest Silas Build
  • HexA+
    Deals great range magic damage where other ranged heroes in Watcher of Realms only deal piercing damage.Class: MarksmanCampaign: SVoid Rift: SGuild Boss: S+Tide: A+Raids: B+Best Hex Build
  • King HarzA
    Can tank for most and with a good defender down, he does do very well.Class: DefenderCampaign: B+Void Rift: B+Guild Boss: DTide: ARaids: BBest King Harz Build
  • GhanA
    Solid tank and great damage for your team and with healers around he can sustain quite a lot while helping your team ramp up damage output.Class: DefenderCampaign: B+Void Rift: B+Guild Boss: B+Tide: ARaids: B+Best Ghan Build
  • Captain ReveA
    Good crowd control and damage but only available in events.Class: DefenderCampaign: B+Void Rift: B+Guild Boss: CTide: ARaids: B+Best Captain Reve Build
  • VolkaA
    With Awakending you can respawn allies quicker and her team lifesteal make her a great heroClass: FighterCampaign: B+Void Rift: B+Guild Boss: B+Tide: ARaids: BBest Volka Build
  • ArachaA
    Amazing Lord BonusesClass: FighterCampaign: B+Void Rift: B+Guild Boss: A+Tide: ARaids: B+Best Aracha Build
  • DeimosA
    His damage scales by his own max HP and can be great in Build Boss teams.Class: FighterCampaign: B+Void Rift: B+Guild Boss: STide: B+Raids: CBest Deimos Build
  • CerberusA
    There is multiple aspects to him - first of all he deals a ton of damage but most of his kit is also designed to use him as a last resort to prevent enemies passing and let him die to re-deploy him. He does what he does but needs the timig and enough players struggle with him at first simply because he seems to be really squishy (until you get to the point where you let him die enough and re-deploy him and just accept that as his kit the way it is). The revival times will go up each time and he is rather a 'you-shall-not-pass' hero than one to deploy and forget for the battle.Class: FighterCampaign: B+Void Rift: B+Guild Boss: DTide: BRaids: B+Best Cerberus Build
  • HollowA
    Healing and rage boosting makes her a great hero that goes so well with many teams in Watcher of Realms.Class: HealerCampaign: A+Void Rift: A+Guild Boss: A+Tide: ARaids: B+Best Hollow Build
  • VortexA
    Great range healer and scales his healing by max HP - would rank him higher if he would have buffs but out-of-the box an easy plug-and-play healer.Class: HealerCampaign: SVoid Rift: SGuild Boss: CTide: A+Raids: B+Best Vortex Build
  • CarnelianA
    Deal area damage but that's not too impressive - the main reason she is here is that she can grant fatal immunity to allies which last and the way she applies them comes out to be really helpful espcially when you get her build to a point where the effect jumps and applies it to all allies in range. Her healing is overall nothing to really count on as the trigger is quite problematic.Class: HealerCampaign: AVoid Rift: AGuild Boss: CTide: ARaids: B+Best Carnelian Build
  • NocturneA
    Great single-target damage dealer for magic damage and dropped a little with Hex in the mix but still a good Guild Boss and other PvE content character.Class: MageCampaign: A+Void Rift: A+Guild Boss: STide: ARaids: BBest Nocturne Build
  • EonaA
    Great area magic damage for an epic hero and a great carry for long times in Watcher of Realms before you really need legendaries.Class: MageCampaign: A+Void Rift: A+Guild Boss: CTide: A+Raids: B+Best Eona Build
  • PyrosA
    Great debuffs and a very good hero for Guild Boss to deal more damage.Class: MageCampaign: BVoid Rift: BGuild Boss: S+Tide: BRaids: CBest Pyros Build
  • LaseerA
    Solid overall but primarily useful for his anti-healing debuff when you need it. There's not too many situations right now where you really would need the heal-blocking but even without a solid area damage dealer that you can run successful in many magic teams.Class: MageCampaign: AVoid Rift: AGuild Boss: DTide: B+Raids: B+Best Laseer Build
  • TheowinA
    Slowing and area damage make him a solid hero to run and a great early carry hero to have.Class: MarksmanCampaign: B+Void Rift: B+Guild Boss: CTide: B+Raids: BBest Theowin Build
  • CalypsoA
    Builds up more and more damage and is a good single-target damage dealer in Watcher of Realms so whenever you don't need burst (e.g. Guild Boss) and deal single-target damage, she is a great choice.Class: MarksmanCampaign: B+Void Rift: B+Guild Boss: STide: A+Raids: C+Best Calypso Build
  • MaulA
    If you need burst area damage, he is a fantastic choice and with Awakening you can get slow and freeze as well.Class: MarksmanCampaign: BVoid Rift: BGuild Boss: CTide: B+Raids: B+Best Maul Build
  • RazaakA
    Piercing damage and area damage alone makes him a good hero in Watcher of Realms. He can burst like crazy, espcially when paired with a attack supporter hero.Class: MarksmanCampaign: B+Void Rift: B+Guild Boss: A+Tide: ARaids: A+Best Razaak Build
  • SargakA
    Has the potential to burst like crazy but also needs a healer to keep him alive during that. His ultimate cleans and strikes like a truck if you make it work.Class: MarksmanCampaign: AVoid Rift: AGuild Boss: A+Tide: ARaids: C+Best Sargak Build
  • KriaA
    Great against mob waves but she needs to constantly kill enemies to really show her full potential.Class: Campaign: B+Void Rift: B+Guild Boss: CTide: B+Raids: B+Best Kria Build
  • KinezaA
    Nice Fighter with some sustain and dodge and overall solid performance against most but airborne mobsCampaign: B+Void Rift: A+Guild Boss: A+Tide: A+Raids: B+Best Kineza Build
  • IsoldeB+
    Solid epic defender and early-to-mid game one of the great bread-and-butter heroes also for just enabling the lord bonus on your carry heroes. Later just has problems as can't scale stat-wise enough to sustain well but building her early will give you a great defender that you will use for quite some time.Class: DefenderCampaign: BVoid Rift: BGuild Boss: DTide: BRaids: C+Best Isolde Build
  • BaronB+
    Great defender overall and espcially amazing epic defender with decent damage for a defender that can carry you in Gear Raid IIClass: DefenderCampaign: SVoid Rift: SGuild Boss: DTide: A+Raids: BBest Baron Build
  • RegulusB+
    Defender that can keep allies alive. Why not ranked higher? Other defender ranked higher defend as good as he does and he doesn't provide any buffs or shielding except the fatal blow surviving of allies.Class: DefenderCampaign: B+Void Rift: B+Guild Boss: DTide: B+Raids: C+Best Regulus Build
  • ApsanB+
    Fighter with air focus can be useful in very niche situations but overall not too many cases where you can universally use him that make it really wirth investing in himClass: FighterCampaign: CVoid Rift: CGuild Boss: B+Tide: B+Raids: BBest Apsan Build
  • ValkyraB+
    Can work behind a defender and deal piercing damage and apply a great debuff. Her low block rate sometimes is annoying but her revive is useful at times. Overll if she would be epic I'd rank her higher but the investment in her as legendary hero compared to other legendaries is questionable. She was the first legendary I pulled so she carried me quite a while in earlier modes as off-tank but has fallen off later.Class: FighterCampaign: BVoid Rift: BGuild Boss: C+Tide: B+Raids: BBest Valkyra Build
  • ValeriyaB+
    Damage output when critically needed is there and her passive can protect her at least from dying during the ultimate, but each strike ticks her down and without heavy shielding beforehand and strong healing she will most of the times go down when you use her ultimate which is not too optimal in most situations.Class: FighterCampaign: BVoid Rift: BGuild Boss: B+Tide: B+Raids: BBest Valeriya Build
  • SadieB+
    Protects allies and heals them, but her healing is not the greatest and her main support is helping survivnge strong single-shots.Class: HealerCampaign: A+Void Rift: A+Guild Boss: CTide: BRaids: BBest Sadie Build
  • MidanB+
    Class: HealerCampaign: SVoid Rift: SGuild Boss: CTide: B+Raids: BBest Midan Build
  • EzrynB+
    Great ultimate that can heal anywhere on the map if neededd, but expensive to level and doesn't provide buffs for allies and, on top of that, is only a single-target healerClass: HealerCampaign: B+Void Rift: B+Guild Boss: CTide: A+Raids: B+Best Ezryn Build
  • VenomaB+
    I like the mechanics but right now her faction is not strong enough to make the best synergies to be strong enough.Class: MageCampaign: C+Void Rift: C+Guild Boss: CTide: B+Raids: B+Best Venoma Build
  • ZelusB+
    Solid debuffs and damage but quite high placement costs that I don't think are justified enough to rank him hier in this tier list in Watcher of Realms.Class: MageCampaign: CVoid Rift: CGuild Boss: CTide: CRaids: BBest Zelus Build
  • KaedeB+
    Has potential but also pitfalls and works best in a team based around Chaos Dominion faction heroes, tbh.Class: MageCampaign: BVoid Rift: BGuild Boss: CTide: BRaids: C+Best Kaede Build
  • NyxB+
    Great range but also her deployment costs are quite high and there are simply more versatile marksmen in the game. Still, very useful in Gear Raid III to cover a side laneClass: MarksmanCampaign: BVoid Rift: BGuild Boss: CTide: B+Raids: B+Best Nyx Build
  • LuneriaB+
    A marksman with magic damage and good at killing bosses but needs a markman team to really work well.Class: MarksmanCampaign: BVoid Rift: BGuild Boss: ATide: ARaids: BBest Luneria Build
  • TaurielB+
    Solid with good single-target damage and you can save up her ultimate that can attack anywhere on the map to take out waiting bosses to relief your defense a little bitClass: MarksmanCampaign: B+Void Rift: B+Guild Boss: B+Tide: B+Raids: CBest Tauriel Build
  • BrienneB+
    Really needs her ultimate to pop and air units to attack - if you take this as her condition, she is great.Class: MarksmanCampaign: B+Void Rift: B+Guild Boss: C+Tide: B+Raids: C+Best Brienne Build
  • FalciaB+
    Requires shield for her passive and her ultimate, as good as it is, will not switch targets if she overkills. That makes her waste some potential and the North faction also don't really fits her kit too well.Class: FighterCampaign: B+Void Rift: B+Guild Boss: A+Tide: B+Raids: C+Best Falcia Build
  • AzhorB
    Too inconsistent as defender, espcially as the claimed end-game legendary defender his skill kit promisesClass: DefenderCampaign: C+Void Rift: C+Guild Boss: DTide: CRaids: D+Best Azhor Build
  • LivianB
    Class: DefenderCampaign: B+Void Rift: B+Guild Boss: DTide: C+Raids: CBest Livian Build
  • VorothB
    Class: FighterCampaign: B+Void Rift: B+Guild Boss: B+Tide: C+Raids: CBest Voroth Build
  • VladovB
    He needs to kill with his ultimate or he will die, simple at that. So his ultimate is more like a burst if you have a wave of mobs incoming. If there are none, your healer has a lot to deal with to keep him alive as his ultimate will kill him.Class: FighterCampaign: BVoid Rift: BGuild Boss: A+Tide: B+Raids: CBest Vladov Build
  • JanqharB
    Class: FighterCampaign: B+Void Rift: B+Guild Boss: C+Tide: B+Raids: CBest Janqhar Build
  • NissandeiB
    Class: HealerCampaign: B+Void Rift: B+Guild Boss: ATide: B+Raids: BBest Nissandei Build
  • GreedB
    Overall decent kit with ton of slow and AoE but the fact that airborne targets take less damage make him less versatileClass: MageCampaign: C+Void Rift: C+Guild Boss: C+Tide: BRaids: BBest Greed Build
  • MarriB
    The freezing is nice and the area damage as well, but the overall damage falls off quite soon and then her only real use-case is freezing and slowing down enemies and I think that is not that great for taking up a slotClass: MageCampaign: BVoid Rift: BGuild Boss: DTide: B+Raids: BBest Marri Build
  • DurzaB
    Really needs more Chaos Faction heroes in your team and additional healing or he will take out your entire team. If you make it work he heavily buffs, though.Class: MageCampaign: C+Void Rift: C+Guild Boss: C+Tide: C+Raids: BBest Durza Build
  • ShamirB
    In terms of damage he is rather meh, even compared with some epic mages in the game. The fact that makes him stand out is the slowing effect that he constnatly applies and stacks so slow down mob waves while your damage dealers take care of them.Class: MageCampaign: B+Void Rift: B+Guild Boss: C+Tide: BRaids: C+Best Shamir Build
  • AeonB
    Class: MageCampaign: B+Void Rift: B+Guild Boss: DTide: B+Raids: BBest Aeon Build
  • ArdethC+
    Class: DefenderCampaign: C+Void Rift: C+Guild Boss: DTide: C+Raids: CBest Ardeth Build
  • AvelineC+
    Class: DefenderCampaign: C+Void Rift: C+Guild Boss: DTide: BRaids: CBest Aveline Build
  • MerielC+
    Class: DefenderCampaign: BVoid Rift: BGuild Boss: DTide: C+Raids: CBest Meriel Build
  • EstridC+
    Class: FighterCampaign: B+Void Rift: B+Guild Boss: B+Tide: C+Raids: CBest Estrid Build
  • ScorchC+
    Class: FighterCampaign: B+Void Rift: B+Guild Boss: CTide: C+Raids: CBest Scorch Build
  • CyreneC+
    Class: FighterCampaign: DVoid Rift: DGuild Boss: DTide: DRaids: CBest Cyrene Build
  • DalynC+
    Class: FighterCampaign: DVoid Rift: DGuild Boss: DTide: CRaids: C+Best Dalyn Build
  • LightlockeC+
    Has his buff and healing with overflow but simply don't heal enough in his basic attacks to amke him a healer for your team. Can be a useful secondary healer that you can build cheaply, thoughClass: HealerCampaign: BVoid Rift: BGuild Boss: CTide: BRaids: C+Best Lightlocke Build
  • DassomiC+
    Works with the cross-synergies of the Chaos Dominion team but outside of that there are barely any debuffs that you need cleansed and his healing overall is not that high to make him a great healer pick on his own.Class: HealerCampaign: CVoid Rift: CGuild Boss: CTide: CRaids: C+Best Dassomi Build
  • NauvrasC+
    Class: MageCampaign: BVoid Rift: BGuild Boss: BTide: C+Raids: C+Best Nauvras Build
  • RaidenC+
    Class: MageCampaign: CVoid Rift: CGuild Boss: CTide: B+Raids: CBest Raiden Build
  • LaurelC+
    Class: MageCampaign: C+Void Rift: C+Guild Boss: B+Tide: CRaids: BBest Laurel Build
  • ImaniC+
    Class: MageCampaign: B+Void Rift: B+Guild Boss: A+Tide: BRaids: BBest Imani Build
  • TitusC
    Self-healing defender but has a weird kit as he can't be healed and needs to be hit to heal himself. Later in the game he is not able to stand up anymoreClass: DefenderCampaign: DVoid Rift: DGuild Boss: DTide: DRaids: CBest Titus Build
  • AinC
    Class: FighterCampaign: C+Void Rift: C+Guild Boss: C+Tide: C+Raids: CBest Ain Build
  • KomodoC
    Class: FighterCampaign: CVoid Rift: CGuild Boss: B+Tide: CRaids: D+Best Komodo Build
  • GluttonyC
    Class: FighterCampaign: BVoid Rift: BGuild Boss: C+Tide: C+Raids: D+Best Gluttony Build
  • CycloneC
    The pushback is the only thing I like but a manual ultimate from a unit that has a hard time sustain and doesn't deal good damage is not enough to really make him rank great here.Class: FighterCampaign: CVoid Rift: CGuild Boss: CTide: CRaids: C+Best Cyclone Build
  • AtroxC
    Extremely funky kit overall and dies off and you can place him again and ticks down again, like a living AoE. Just not good, why spend deployment cost over and over instead of having a healer and a figher that stays alive?!Class: FighterCampaign: C+Void Rift: C+Guild Boss: DTide: C+Raids: BBest Atrox Build
  • LiliC
    Decent early-game healer but her single-target heals without much more to it doesn't let her sustain against the other healers in Watcher of Realms.Class: HealerCampaign: CVoid Rift: CGuild Boss: DTide: CRaids: C+Best Lili Build
  • AiC
    Class: MageCampaign: CVoid Rift: CGuild Boss: DTide: CRaids: CBest Ai Build
  • NisaltC
    Class: MageCampaign: CVoid Rift: CGuild Boss: CTide: CRaids: CBest Nisalt Build
  • SoleilC
    Class: MageCampaign: CVoid Rift: CGuild Boss: CTide: CRaids: CBest Soleil Build
  • SelkathC
    Class: MageCampaign: CVoid Rift: CGuild Boss: DTide: CRaids: CBest Selkath Build
  • OsirenC
    Class: MageCampaign: CVoid Rift: CGuild Boss: DTide: CRaids: CBest Osiren Build
  • AzzothC
    Class: MageCampaign: C+Void Rift: C+Guild Boss: C+Tide: C+Raids: CBest Azzoth Build
  • NazeemC
    Class: MageCampaign: C+Void Rift: C+Guild Boss: CTide: C+Raids: D+Best Nazeem Build
  • CrachC
    Class: MarksmanCampaign: BVoid Rift: BGuild Boss: CTide: DRaids: CBest Crach Build
