Choosing your character in Archero 2 is very important. Each character in the game has specific stats and characteristics, and you'll need to assign them an appropriate build. In this Archero 2 tier list, I'd like to take a look at the best premium and F2P characters and the ones you'll need to replace quickly.
Even with the best build in Archero 2, you'll still need to choose the right character to optimise each of your runs. For the time being, the game offers 6 free and premium characters and we've classified them into tiers, tier S+ being the best character in the game, tier C being the character you're going to have to part with very quickly if you want to progress.

Otta, the best premium character in the Archero 2 tier list
Unsurprisingly, the best perso in this Archero 2 tier list is the one you have to pay to get. But be warned, if you're willing to invest, you won't regret it.
Otta, the treasure hunter, has a very high critical chance thanks to Brutality, making her a truly powerful character. When Otta is maxed out, she reaches Brutality level 4, making her the best character in the Archero 2 tier list.
Helix, the best F2P character in Archero 2
If you're not planning on spending any money, then Helix is the character in the Archero 2 tier list you should be targeting. This legendary hunter is all about power and attack speed.
As a result, he's both powerful and highly mobile, making him easy and enjoyable to play.
