Neverness to Everness Tier List: Best Hotta Characters

Hotta Studio’s urban sandbox RPG Neverness to Everness features playable characters with distinct stats, abilities, and weapons—so the right picks can make missions and enemy fights much easier across the city of Hethereau. A new tier list ranks characters by overall power potential, from top-tier “must-haves” to the weakest current options.

How the tier list is ranked

The tier list sorts characters by their potential at maximum level. That means the rankings focus on what each character can achieve at full power, rather than how they perform only early in a run.

Tier S through C: what each rank means

Tier S is reserved for only a few characters that reach the highest level of excellence. These are described as dominating the current meta and offering the strongest combos, making them the priority to unlock first.

Tier A covers characters labeled as superior-quality and positioned as strong substitutes when Tier S options aren’t available yet. They’re characterized as highly versatile with few drawbacks.

Tier B includes characters that are good or have potential, but typically require a larger long-term investment to reach their best results. They’re considered fine for specific purposes, though they come with some limitations.

Tier C is for characters with the weakest current performance in the game. These are presented as the least recommended, since better alternatives generally outclass them in their respective roles. The guidance is to replace them as soon as possible—unless you personally prefer them.

What to watch next

If you’re building a team for missions across Hethereau, the main takeaway is to prioritize Tier S first, then fill gaps with Tier A, and only consider lower tiers when you’re targeting specific roles or you’re willing to invest longer-term. As you progress, you’ll want to reassess your squad against the tier list’s maximum-level assumptions.
