Tier ratings

As of November 1, 2026. The tiers consolidate several tier lists and a level-60 simulation; details, sources and reasoning on the rankings page.

Beta/PTR state before the 4 November 2026 launch. The sources rely on the level-30 beta, talent analysis and simulations – there are no raid logs yet. Ratings will change after launch.
