Eternity and Tooth Fairy tops the Reverse 1999 version 1.2 tier list (December 2023)

Reverse 1999 categorizes Aracnists into six Afflatus: Star, Beast, Mineral, Plant, Intelligence, and Spirit. Each Aracnist possesses two basic incantation skills and one Ultimate.

They also have unique play styles distinguished by their roles: Damage Dealer, Support, and Healer. You can upgrade their in-game level, unlock their passive, and equip them with Psychubes and Resonance to make them more robust.

With that in mind, this article divides Reverse 1999 Arcanist into SS, S, A, B, and C tiers. Like tier lists of previous versions, the SS tier offers the most robust performers in the current meta, and the C lists the weakest.

The worst performers in the current meta, version 1.2, are in the C-tier. It’s best to leave them untouched because they do not contribute to your team’s win. Instead, it's a possibility that you lose almost all battles fought with only them in the squad.

Here are all C-tier Arcanists in this mobile gacha title:

• Mondlicht
• aliEn T
• Ms. Moissan
• Poltergeist
• Bunny Bunny
