Overall Power and Consistency
We look at how reliably a character or team performs across common endgame scenarios, not just their highest possible ceiling.
Fun is the only standard that matters.
Build a full team around your favorite character and find the balance between fun and meta that fits your playstyle.
The HSR team tier list highlights the strongest and most dependable meta cores in the current version. It puts the most weight on synergy, consistency, and how realistic each team is to build on a normal account.
Full Remembrance team. Still the premium Remembrance core, with top-tier single-target damage, great survivability, and excellent staying power.
Full Elation team. One of the strongest premium comps in 4.1 even at moderate investment, with a huge ceiling and plenty of room to scale.
Phainon hypercarry. Still a very strong premium single-target team, but it does not quite keep up with the top T0 shells anymore.
DoT team. Stable, easy to pilot, and much better rounded than older DoT variants, even if it is not competing for the absolute top spot.
Firefly break team. The current endgame still favors break heavily, so this team clears very comfortably even without having the highest raw ceiling.
Ashveil follow-up team. Strong single-target output and good support options make this a solid FuA shell, but it still trails the best Remembrance and Elation teams.
Archer team. A very efficient single-target team with smooth SP management, especially now that Sparkle helps keep the rotation stable.
Anaxa hypercarry. High floor, simple game plan, and not overly restrictive in practice, which makes it a solid benchmark team for this tier.
The Herta team. Still very good in AoE-focused content, but it does not feel nearly as dominant once the fight gets tougher or more demanding.
Saber hypercarry. The damage is real if the team can keep feeding ultimates, especially in multi-target fights.
Mydei hypercarry. Playable with full investment, but the return is hard to justify compared with cheaper or stronger options.
Use this HSR character tier list to filter the current overall rankings by element, path, or rarity. The rankings focus on real account value, flexibility, and return on investment instead of isolated best-case damage.
These short notes explain why each character is placed where they are right now, with an emphasis on practical strengths, role fit, and team expectations.
An elite sustain with cleanse, speed, and healing all packed together, giving her rare long-term pull value across many teams.
A premier Remembrance support that sharply raises single-target pressure and scales especially well in remembrance-heavy teams.
Still a top-tier carry in 4.1, pairing elite damage with unusually strong safety through her backline revive utility.
One of the most universal premium supports in the game, with exceptional long-term value and one of the best E1 spikes around.
One of the strongest Elation carries in Version 4.1, with top-end output that stays excellent even at relatively low investment.
The dedicated Elation engine that makes the archetype feel complete, and one of the clearest must-have support pieces for those teams.
Her charging and teamwide buffing are both exceptional, making her one of the biggest ceiling-raisers in Castorice setups.
His single-target ceiling remains absurd, but the current evaluation clearly leans toward higher investment and premium teammates.
A very complete modern damage core that can deliver premium Super Break value without being locked into pure break-only play.
A major piece in the updated DoT core, giving Kafka and Black Swan teams a much stronger and more stable damage profile.
A low-investment standout with reliable weakness coverage and strong single-target value, especially when paired with Cyrene.
A premium follow-up core with both damage and utility, but its pull value drops if your roster already has stronger established teams.
One of the strongest protection-oriented pieces for premium follow-up teams, adding real stability without killing team tempo.
With her SP economy improved, she is once again one of the smoothest and strongest premium buffers in the game.
His action advance, buffs, and raw numbers still make him a high-quality support that slots into several top-tier teams.
One of the best single-target damage dealers right now, and recent team upgrades have pushed him close to top-end premium carries.
She greatly amplifies select carries' turn value, though most of her best results still come inside fairly fixed premium shells.
With action advance and real buffing utility, this is still a very useful support across several Remembrance-oriented teams.
She has clearly rebounded with the newer team shell, and a finished setup now puts her damage back on the main line.
She remains a core DoT piece, with stronger payoff in the current environment thanks to better team output and smoother rotations.
She brings strong raw multipliers, and as long as the team can keep feeding her energy, the damage stays very respectable.
Still one of the better traditional supports, with stable value in both follow-up teams and standard direct-damage comps.
Still oppressive in Pure Fiction, but her grip on Chaos and Shadow style content has started to loosen.
Her updated AoE detonation profile is much better now, and she remains one of the most important engines in modern DoT teams.
Still a capable DPS with a distinctive play pattern, though his zero-eidolon value no longer feels truly top-end.
Her current role is very clear inside break teams, but she reads more like a key puzzle piece than a standalone power pick.
She is no longer completely stress-free in high-pressure fights, but remains a very good sustain inside break-focused teams.
She brings a lot to the table, but none of it is uniquely best-in-slot, so she feels more like a flexible luxury support.
Excellent in multi-target content, and gains a major bump from Cyrene, making her one of the better Remembrance carries right now.
Ashveil gives her meaningful help, but she still wants extra investment before feeling truly premium.
Her weakness implant and defense shred still give her a unique niche, but in 4.1 she feels more like a flexible counterpick than a staple.
Her baseline utility remains strong, but she no longer dominates team-building the way she once did.
Still a usable sustain when your account lacks a more premium option, but no longer a priority pull for current meta-focused rosters.
Still solid defensively, but he no longer feels as irreplaceable in premium follow-up shells as he once did.
Her output model now feels dated, and she does not slot especially cleanly into the newer Dahlia-centered setups.
Low-investment Acheron has clearly fallen off, and raising her ceiling again usually asks for more cost than it is worth.
With Sunday and other premium partners he can still post good results, but his best teams are fairly expensive.
Her damage floor is still fine, but too much of her value depends on enemy behavior in harder content.
She still has a real damage profile, but leans heavily on top-end supports to keep pace with the current meta.
She can still perform in Pure Fiction, but her value drops quickly once the fight stops favoring her.
A workable sustain for break teams if you lack better options, but his floor and ceiling are both clearly lower now.
The buffs help, but his base profile still is not strong enough to reclaim a major role in current endgame.
He can still function, but has slipped well behind the current premium damage cores.
Dahlia makes him easier to pilot, but his overall priority still trails stronger modern damage dealers.
A fine standard-banner stopgap, though newer supports have pushed her out of many top-end cores.
Comfortable to use and still workable as a sustain, but his overall value is now more transitional than premium.
His role compression has weakened enough that even his best teams no longer treat him as mandatory.
Still a workable substitute in break teams, but no longer a high-priority long-term build.
Still usable in the right fights, but his place in mainstream teams keeps shrinking.
A classic early-game buffer who still works in budget teams, but has largely aged out of top-end setups.
Still great value for newer accounts and Pure Fiction, but her impact outside that niche is limited.
Defense shred is always useful, but her low raw value makes her harder to justify in stronger modern teams.
A decent partner for Feixiao at high Eidolons, but offers almost no value outside that lane.
Her utility is still real, but her place in premium follow-up teams has been squeezed hard by newer options.
Once a very strong free carry, but today he feels closer to a serviceable fallback than a meta staple.

A reasonable budget Pure Fiction pick, though she rarely looks comfortable outside that niche now.
His theoretical utility still looks better on paper than it does in actual high-end content.
She remains serviceable, but current premium teams usually prefer stronger or more specialized defensive options.
She can still cover pure healing, but the lack of cleanse and modern utility hurts her badly now.

Traditional shielding alone no longer keeps up with what modern defensive units are expected to provide.
No longer worth building for accounts that care about current power and efficiency.
The shield numbers and overall utility are simply too low for the current environment.
Her ceiling still exists on paper, but the consistency cost is too high compared with modern support options.
His damage and consistency are both too low for current endgame standards, making him a very low-priority build.
These are the questions players ask most often when using an HSR tier list for pulls, team building, and overall account planning.
It is based on current-version practical value, with a heavier focus on consistency, team dependence, investment efficiency, and overall meta relevance than raw ceiling alone.
It is built for overall account planning, so it can help both newer and more established players, but the rankings are still centered on long-term value and current endgame use.
A character can have excellent peak performance and still rank lower if they need very specific teammates, ask for heavy investment, or deliver less stable value across common situations.
Use the HSR tier list as a priority guide, not a fixed pull order. The best pull for your account depends on the teams you already have, the roles you are missing, and whether a new character improves your current endgame coverage.
There is rarely one permanent best team. The strongest option depends on the current version, enemy lineup, turbulence or blessing effects, and how complete your roster is, so the page focuses on the most reliable top cores instead of pretending there is one universal answer.
Different tier list creators optimize for different goals. Some care more about peak damage, some care more about low-investment value, and some rank only one mode. This page is built around practical account value across the current version, so differences are expected.
The page is updated whenever the version environment changes enough to affect ranking value, such as major roster releases, meta shifts, or notable endgame pressure changes.
