Risk of Rain 2 Survivor Tier List - Survivors of the Void DLC

Risk of Rain 2 survivor tier list for the survivors of the void DLC! While everything I say is objectively true at all times, keep in mind this is my own opinion! Just because your stinky survivor main isn't S tier doesn't mean it isn't strong or fun for you personally.

I think the survivors of the void DLC survivors are broken OP omegabusted tho.

"mult is the only ranged survivor that starts with armor"

REX moment

Oh boy, thank you I really didn’t want a healthy sleep schedule tonight

[Monkeylordz]

Survivor smash or pass tier list when?

[Vikushu]

Commando really is my favorite survivor at the moment. I know his playstyle is just pew-pew, but that's all he needs. He's one of those survivors where it really feels like you have to _work_ for that good run, you know? He also teaches you a lot about good item management. The new DLC actually made his runs more consistent.

[gorthauer]

Engineer actually can cheese the mithrix fight by placing his turrets outside the arena, in most cases Mithrix will aggro on them but won't be able to hit them, giving you a free win.

Personally I’d say mercenary underrated for eclipse and looping because slicing winds is way better than people think. Yeah you’re losing the iframes, but you’re getting a ranged ability that procs 8 times at a 1.0 coefficient. Maybe I’m crazy but I think it’s pretty darn good.

The more commando I play, the more I like him. He's probably in my top 3. Idk maybe I ate too many crayons.

[seanflanagan]

As Commando main, i feel attacked, I would also say hes the most FUN survivor too, whereas engi is bungus tier on the fun tier.

[mkman]

I started playing Commando recently because I wanted to stack Hella bleeds on things and I don't think he's as bad as I used to now. But holy fuck you're literally at the mercy of the RNGods if you don't get insane items you slowly get outscaled and it FeelsBadMan

[ryomathekillers]

I love merc because his base mobility doesnt make me want to cry so he's really fun, how good each character is doesn't really matter too much considering ror2 is just a game of surviving until you get enough items to carry you, the only thing that changes is how many items your character needs to function very well which is why the dlc characters are so good since they need very little.

[nikolaskulka]

I know, I know but... unironically merc gets a pretty substantial dps increase when you use all the different animation canceling and tech he has. Can literally reliably instakill floating bosses like AWU. Aside from that, totally fair list cool vid

[lord.xerces]

As a Bandit main myself, he is 100% the most satisfying survivor in the game imo. Theres nothing more fun than flying around one shotting everything with Desperado by stage 3 lmao

[seanriddle]

Something I discovered on my own, but y'all might already know: power saw is agile, you can sprint while using it

[cata_henny]

Merc Main here. I agree with a lot of your sentiments, especially the Commando parts lol, but I feel one thing worth noting is that Merc is one of the least RNG-dependent survivors for killing Mithrix.

Sure his damage isn’t great as the run progresses and he takes time to learn, but you can reliably rush TPs and get to the Mithrix fight with more consistency then any other survivor bc of iframes and low cooldowns.

[campfireofdreams]

Most fun for me is Huntress for her incredible mobility compared to other classes. Railgunner makes the fun builds even better and actually rewards your skill (fast aim).

And lastly Artificier, my favorite, for how it's gameplay is totally different from other classes, she abandons ground movement in all it's forms due to casting time on spells and knockback, it's objectively better and easier to just fly all the time, has kit that is basically made for duplication and spamming in succession instead of shooting/ occasionally using abilities, like other classes. And has a certain skill cap, some abilities have a very close range, but are rewarding and positioning is very important (ice walls, stacking them).

[wisp]

Loader, Acrid, and Merc should be way higher IMO. For most video games mobility and range > everything else. This also applies to RoR2. Mobility and range can just compeltely prevent death and make you faster at clearing stages. I'm like 90% sure that the mobility on those characters is more impactful on stage clear time than Capitan's hack. Acrid's range and mobility prevents him from ever having to actually fight anything. Loader is fast and tanky; she is hard to one-shot and only has to be in for a few seconds to do dmg. Mercenary can just be invulnerable 24/7 completely preventing death. Alternativley, you can run slicing winds and have one of the best ranged abilities in the game.

[neku-fndq]

The reason why i love Engineer so much is because he can make a use of an items that will be otherwise pretty garbage for rest of the survivors

[Maple]

You just gained a sub lol. That explanation of mobility, damage, and healing was great, and the fact that you read the survivors out loud for anyone listening to audio is so useful for me who has videos on while playing lol

[tcghosted]

I started playing commando a LOT after survivors of the void dropped… he’s now my absolute favorite survivor in the game, and it’s not even close. He feels so good to play imo. I can’t even remember the last time I lost a run on him, even in eclipse. I feel like a lot of the new items helped out commando a lot more than some of the other survivors.
