NightreignNightreign Tier Lists

In Elden Ring Nightreign, every Nightfarer has its own set of strengths, weaknesses, and playstyle.

Some are easier or harder to play, squishy or tanky, melee or ranged, and so on.

Because of this, different Nightfarers will naturally offer pros and cons in certain contexts.

Our Tier Lists aim to help the average player understand these nuances of where each Nightfarer shines or struggles.

As always with tier lists:

• If you're a souls veteran who can beat Elden Ring, Dark Souls, and so on with ease, you can likely succeed with any Nightfarer in any team comp.
• Every player has a different background in gaming, so there will always be exceptions when it comes to playstyle experience. If you vibe with the Recluse as a new player, that's great!
• Ultimately, unless you're a professional speedrunner, play what you want and have fun with!

Is Nightreign your first soulslike game? Don't feel bad if you're having difficulties, it's a tough genre!
