In DragonSword: Awakening, released on PC, building an effective team is key to clearing content. According to recent reports, while the game is well-balanced, certain characters offer superior performance due to their unique ability sets and crowd-control potential.

DragonSword: Awakening S-Tier Hero List

The following characters are currently identified as the strongest options for your roster:

  • Theresia: A top-tier pick who can switch between Consecration and Celestial Verdict to inflict bleed or stun. Her Divine Arc and Holy Rise provide high damage output.
  • Lute: Highly recommended for beginners. Lute excels at stunning enemies, healing allies with Healing Circle, and dealing significant area-of-effect damage via Relic Fall.
  • Reina: Strong in airborne combat. Her Rising Cutter and Wind Slayer abilities allow her to keep enemies airborne while maintaining high mobility.
  • Ornette: Specializes in shock status and critical damage. Her Holy Circle increases critical damage by 30%, which synergizes with her Judgment and Holy Grail abilities.
  • Kalsion: A powerful melee fighter. Using his weapon Blaze, he can create shockwaves and increase his attack power with Flame Wave.
  • Sion: An excellent choice for teams focused on knockdowns. His Divine Crash and Divine Smash abilities inflict shock and allow for relic manipulation to maximize damage.

How to Unlock the Secret Kalien Outfit

You can obtain the Vestment of the Great Spirit for Kalien by locating a hidden chest underwater. Follow these steps to secure the item:

  1. Locate the Chest: Travel to the area northeast of the Firefly Forest. You do not need the region unlocked to access this location.
  2. Prepare Your Stamina: Because the chest is located at extreme depths, you must manage your stamina carefully. Use Egg Renew to restore 25% stamina when your bar is low, and consume Assorted Rice Bowls to halve your stamina consumption rate.
  3. Perform the Dive: Use a familiar with the 'deep dive' ability to reach the bottom. You may need to adjust your camera angle during the descent to keep moving downward.
  4. Retrieve the Item: Once you reach the bottom, interact with the chest by pressing 'F' to add the outfit to your collection.

While tier lists can guide your party composition, remember that investing resources into any character can improve their effectiveness. Aim for a balanced team where party members' abilities complement one another.
