Anime Zero Tier List

This Anime Zero tier list groups weapons by rarity, with the pity number for each bracket and the synergy partner that changes the ranking. Two rules keep it useful: rows are markedreported until we have cleared content with them ourselves, and the Anime Zero tier list is edited with the patch that moves a weapon instead of being rewritten from scratch.

How this Anime Zero tier list is built

Anime Zero tier list: rarity and pairs

Rarity sets the floor and the pair sets the ceiling, so the Anime Zero tier list is ordered by rarity first and then adjusted by partner availability. A weapon you cannot pair drops a position against a lower-rarity weapon you can, and the pity column tells you what that position costs in spins.

Anime Zero tier list: how rows are sourced

The developer does not publish official rankings or damage tables. Everything in this Anime Zero tier list is community documentation of the October 2 patch, which is why the status column exists on every row: it is the difference between "the community reports this" and "we have played it".

Anime Zero tier list by rarity

S tier — Lyth (3500 pity)

The rarest pool in the game. Server-wide announcement when one drops.

WeaponSynergy partnerStatusWhy it ranks here
MiyabiSaberreportedTop of the ladder. Pairing with Saber trades raw damage for speed and cooldowns.

A tier — Arcane (250 pity)

Top-shelf pulls that most accounts will actually reach.

WeaponSynergy partnerStatusWhy it ranks here
ShanksLuffyreportedMoved from Mythic to Arcane on release day, so he hits above his pity bracket.

B tier — Mythic (175 pity)

The workhorse pool — where a first real loadout comes from.

WeaponSynergy partnerStatusWhy it ranks here
SukunaAlucardreportedAoE pressure and a tracking ultimate; the poster carry of the release pool and the default damage pair.
AlucardSukunareportedHalf of the +10% damage pair; sustain keeps solo runs alive.
GokuKilluareportedCooldown pair half for skill-chaining builds.
KilluaGokureportedFast kit; the pair turns packs into a rotation rather than a fight.
LuffyShanksreportedHalf of the largest survival bonus in the game (+15% max health).
JuuzouNagumoreportedUltimate-charge pair half; worth it if your clears are already fast.
NagumoJuuzoureportedThe other half of the +20% ult charge pair.
GutsSaberreportedBruiser that survives bad rooms; skill 2 cooldown was doubled to 16s in the October 2 patch.
SaberMiyabi / GutsreportedThe only weapon in two pairs — which means you must choose one at a time.

Rarity and pity behind the tiers

RarityPityWhat it means in practice
Mythic175 spinsReachable in a normal session with codes banked. This is where a first real loadout comes from.
Arcane250 spinsA deliberate multi-session target. Pick it only once your traits are settled.
Lyth3500 spinsA long-run goal. Treat any Lyth pull below the guarantee as a bonus, not a plan.
Legendary / Epicnot listedNo verified pity figures yet; they carry the early game and get replaced.

Lyth is the current name for the top rarity. Older lists call it “Zenless” — same tier, and the rename is why some guides look out of date on this point. If your in-game counter disagrees with the numbers in this Anime Zero tier list, use theroll calculator and enter the number you actually see.

Anime Zero tier list: traits worth rerolling

Traits are what turn a mid weapon into a keeper, and they can move a row up a tier on their own. If you are still on Legendary gear, a cheap reroll into any trait below is usually better value than another ten spins — and the Anime Zero tier list assumes a reasonable trait when it ranks two weapons close together.

TraitVerdictStatusWhy
SupernovaBuild around itreportedDamage multiplier that rewards fast clears.
BloodlustStrongreportedSustain plus damage; forgiving on a low-rarity weapon.
HunterGood earlyreportedCheap reroll target while you are still on Legendary gear.

Anime Zero tier list: reroll rule

Reroll the weapon you are keeping, never the one you are about to replace. A perfect trait on a doomed weapon is the most common way players lose a week of progress, and it is the mistake that most often makes an Anime Zero tier list look wrong.

Anime Zero tier list: how to test a row yourself

Anime Zero tier list: the two-run test

A tier list is a starting point, not a verdict. To check a row against your own account, run the same room twice — once with the weapon you are considering, once with your current pick — and compare clear time rather than damage numbers, which the game does not publish. This Anime Zero tier list is only useful when you test it against your own loadout, because traits and pair bonuses move the result more than the rarity letter does.

Anime Zero tier list: keep the test fair

Keep the test honest: same dungeon, same difficulty, same partner weapon. Change two variables at once and the Anime Zero tier list will look wrong when it is really the loadout that changed.

Anime Zero tier list: when a row moves

Anime Zero tier list: why rows move

Rows move for three reasons — a balance patch, a newly discovered pair interaction, or a new weapon entering the pool. When a row moves on this Anime Zero tier list it is edited in place with a note rather than silently swapped, so you can see what changed and why. Balance patches are the most common cause: the October 2 patch changed a skill cooldown on a Mythic bruiser the same day the pair list was published.

Anime Zero tier list: nothing is removed

Nothing is ever removed to make the Anime Zero tier list look tidier. If a weapon falls out of favour it keeps its row and gains a note, because a player who already invested in it deserves to know what changed.

Pairs beat tiers

Six named weapon pairs carry specific bonuses and every other combination falls back to a flat +5% damage. That means a B-tier Mythic with the right partner routinely outperforms a solo higher-rarity pick, and it is the single most important thing this Anime Zero tier list cannot show in a table cell. The full bonus list, including which pair answers which problem, is on the Anime Zero synergies page.

One more community-reported detail worth knowing: the top-rarity Miyabi appears to have an evolved form that coverage refers to as Cataclysm. We have not verified the evolution path ourselves, so it stays a note here rather than a claim in the ranking.

Anime Zero tier list: roll order for a new account

  1. Claim every working Anime Zero code first — free spins change the maths.
  2. Roll Mythic until you land a weapon that completes one of the six pairs.
  3. Enchant that weapon before rolling again.
  4. Farm traits in Defend until you have one of the three traits above.
  5. Then push Arcane, and only with the pity counter in mind.

Anime Zero tier list FAQ

What is the best weapon in the Anime Zero tier list?

Lyth-tier Miyabi sits at the top of this Anime Zero tier list, followed by Arcane Shanks and the Mythic carries. Below the top, the pair matters more than the tier letter — Sukuna plus Alucard is the standard damage pair and beats most solo higher-rarity picks you cannot match.

Is this Anime Zero tier list official?

No. The developer publishes neither rankings nor damage tables, so this Anime Zero tier list is community documentation of the October 2 patch. That is exactly why every row carries a status column: reported means community-sourced, verified means we cleared content with it ourselves.

How often is this Anime Zero tier list updated?

Whenever a patch moves a weapon. Rows are edited in place with the change noted, so the Anime Zero tier list never silently rewrites its own history. The last full revision followed the October 2 patch.

Can a B-tier weapon beat an S-tier weapon in the Anime Zero tier list?

Yes, and it happens often. A matched B-tier pair with a good trait beats an unmatched S-tier pick, because the pair bonus and the trait compound while a lonely rarity letter does not. The Anime Zero tier list is a starting point, not a verdict.

Is this the same as a Roblox Anime Zero tierlist?

Yes. "tier list anime zero", "anime zero tierlist" and "Roblox Anime Zero tier list" all describe the table on this page — word order and spacing do not change the ranking. The tiers come from the rarity ladder and the pair bonus, not from how the search is spelled.

Why are some rows marked as reported in the Anime Zero tier list?

Because the rankings lean on community documentation of the October 2 patch notes, and a row only becomes verified once we have cleared content with it. Reported rows are labelled so you can weigh them rather than trusting an unmarked claim.
