Reverse 1999 tier list: Reverse 1999 tier list for version 1.1 (November 2023)

Reverse 1999, an increasingly popular game by Bluepoch, has released its first event through the version 1.1 update. After the maintenance break that lasted for five hours, starting from 5:00 am to 10:00 am (UTC -5). This update introduces three new Arcanists: Melania, Pickles, and Diggers. Players can pull them on these banners: Pop is Everything and Thus Spoke The Border Collie.

This article provides you with a complete tier list of characters for version 1.1 based on their combat prowess in the current meta. This will help you select the best characters to upgrade and use in your team.

Pickles and Melania ranks at the top tier for Reverse 1999 version 1.1 tier list

Reverse 1999 Arcanists possess one of these unique Afflatus types: Beast, Spirit, Plant, Mineral, Intellect, and Spirit. They interact with each other in a rock-paper-scissor-based system and deal an additional 30% damage to the weakest. Here are the details:

Mineral deals 30% more damage to Beast
Beast to Plant
Plant to Star
Star to Mineral

Intellect and Spirit Afflatus are neutral against those mentioned above and only deal additional damage to each other.

Upgrade Arcanists’ in-game level, Insight, and Resonance, and equip them with the best Psychubes for additional bonuses. New characters are obtainable using Unilog or Clear Drops from the in-game Summon menu.

Considering this, all Arcanists are ranked into SS, S, A, B, and C-tiers. The most overpowered and robust units are in the SS tier, while the weakest are in the C tier.

Below is the Reverse 1999 version 1.1 tier list for easy in-game.

Centurion - Beast
Eternity - Mineral
Melania - Beast
An-an Lee - Plant

Although less robust than SS, these characters have the potential to shine as one of the most potent Arcanists. They are the second-best options that help you clear most stages swiftly. Upgrade their Insight and Resonance to make them more robust and valuable in end-game stages. The constituents of this rank are:

A Knight - Spirit
Charlie - Star
Druvis III - Plant
Diggers - Plant
Sonetto - Mineral
Voyager - Star
Balloon Party - Mineral
Dikke - Beast
Tennant - Beast
Lilya - Star
Pavia - Beast
Regulus - Star

A-tier

The characters in this tier are neither strong nor are they the weakest. They are average and shine in niche situations, such as specific farming stages. Upgrade them regularly and use them only if you lack SS and S-tier units. The A-Tier characters and their corresponding Afflatus types are:

Eagle - Plant
Leilani - Beast
Satsuki - Plant
Sweetheart - Beast
Baby Blue - Star
Bette - Mineral
Necrologist - Mineral
Twins Sleep - Spirit
X - Intellect
Click - Spirit
La Source - Plant
Ms. NewBabel - Mineral
Sotheby - Plant

B-tier

B-tier characters work fine only in the early stages. If you wish to include them in your journey, max out their Insight, Resonance, and Portray, and equip them with the best Psychubes. However, it's best to populate your roster with SS, S, or A-tier Arcanists. The members of this level are:

Matilda - Star
Door - Intellect
Erick - Star
Nick Bottom - Beast
3NMA - Plant
APPLe - Star
Cristallo - Mineral
Oliver Fog - Star
The Fool – Star
Moondlicht - Mineral
Rabies - Plant
Darley Carter - Beast
aliEn T - Star
Ms. Moissan - Mineral
Poltergeist - Spirit

C-tier

The C-tier characters are the best fit for beginners of this gacha game to understand the meta and combat mechanics better. Once you clear Chapter 1 of the main story, it's best to dispose of them and obtain SS, S, A, or B-tier units. The following characters may be considered C-tier units in the current meta:

Bunny Bunny - Beast
Mesmer Jr. - Intellect
Ms. Radio - Spirit
Sputnik - Star
TTT - Star
John Titor - Intellect
Onion - Mineral

This tier list ranks all characters according to their combat prowess in version 1.1. It changes when Bluepoch releases the 1.2 update and with every other after it.

Bluepoch introduces new Reverse 1999 banners featuring new Arcanists and adjusts existing characters with every update. It pushes the rank of existing characters, which changes the tier list.
