StarSavior now has more than 50 Saviors, and not every one of them deserves your Stellagems or training time. This StarSavior tier list ranks the full roster for PvE and PvP across Journey, Cosmo Gate, Operations, and Gauntlet. You’ll find the picks worth building first, the solid options that fill gaps, and the ones you can safely bench. We also cover who to pull for on the current banners and which Saviors the latest balance patch touched.
StarSavior Tier List for PvE (Journey, Cosmo Gate, and Operations)
PvE is where most of your time goes, so this is the list most players should follow first.
| Tier | Saviors |
| S+ | Eternal Promise: Carmen, Emilly, Heart of Monastir: Charlotte, Waltz of Starlight: Asherah, Rosaria, Lyn |
| S | Amora, Professor M, Fei, Flawless Blue Rose: Claire, Noble Princess: Frey, Muriel, Lacy*, Bell Rhys, Tyria, Roberta, Cristelle, Carnelia, Haydee, Hilde |
| A | Ceres, Seira, Luna*, White Pearl Trap: Luna, Sunshine Cat: Smile, Charlotte*, Elisa, Kyra, Dana*, Lugh*, Petra, Lydia*, Tanya, Yoo Mina, Blessing in Bloom: Epindel |
| B | Harley, Asherah*, Little Tyrant: Scarlet, Frey*, Serpang*, Omega, Smile, Lily*, Epindel, Carmen |
| C | Trish, Annah, Scarlet, Claire, Vera, Marcille, Besta, Clarissa, Naru |
S+ Tier: The StarSavior Saviors Worth Building Around
- Eternal Promise: Carmen (Moon): StarSavior’s first limited Savior and the backbone of many top teams. She absorbs part of the damage aimed at your main attacker, then heals and shields that ally. Your carry survives far longer, which is exactly why her banner matters so much.
- Emilly (Moon): The most dependable tank in the game right now. Emilly opens fights with a Barrier and gives an ally an attack buff, a Barrier, and an extra turn. Her damage scales with max HP, and she stays strong even without heavy breakthrough investment.
- Heart of Monastir: Charlotte (Sun): The bunny-suit Charlotte, often called Bunnygirl Charlotte, and the best Sun damage dealer for PvE. She raises the whole team’s attack, builds up stacks, and cashes them in for a huge finishing strike. She’s fragile, so pair her with a proper tank.
- Waltz of Starlight: Asherah (Order): The best all-round support in StarSavior. She heals the party, cleanses debuffs, and pushes allies’ turns forward while standing on the front line. Breakthroughs matter a lot for her, so a single copy feels noticeably weaker.
- Rosaria (Chaos): A Chaos Ranger who gets scarier the longer a fight lasts. Her attacks build stacks that power up a team-wide strike, which also lowers enemy defense. She’s just as dangerous in PvP, which makes her one of the safest investments on the roster.
- Lyn (Star): The strongest Star damage dealer and the anchor of any Star team. Lyn is built for raw single-target damage, so she’s a natural pick for boss fights. If you only build one Star attacker, make it her.
S Tier: Top StarSavior Picks That Carry Their Role
| Savior | Attribute | Why She’s Here |
| Amora | Order | A Cosmic Savior assassin who clears her own debuffs and bursts hard while she’s clean. |
| Professor M | Moon | A damage-support hybrid who triggers allies’ joint attacks and boosts team firepower. |
| Fei | Moon | A precise single-target assassin who deletes priority targets fast. |
| Flawless Blue Rose: Claire | Moon | The bunny-suit Claire, with elite single-target damage for bosses. |
| Noble Princess: Frey | Moon | An AoE caster who lowers enemy attack and stretches out enemy debuffs. |
| Muriel | Sun | Extends every debuff on the enemy and hits harder as they pile up. |
| Lacy* | Chaos | A flexible Ranger who handles waves, bosses, and her own healing. |
| Bell Rhys | Star | Strips enemy buffs and silences targets, which is perfect for buff-heavy bosses. |
| Tyria | Sun | An execution-style striker who ignores part of the enemy’s defense. |
| Roberta | Star | A high-crit striker who punishes enemies that spam AoE attacks. |
| Cristelle | Sun | A Burn specialist whose Chain damage keeps building over longer fights. |
| Carnelia | Chaos | A caster whose immortality lets her stay alive while dealing steady damage. |
| Haydee | Star | A tank who shields herself, takes hits for allies, and lowers enemy accuracy. |
| Hilde | Sun | Opens fights by shielding the team, then taunts the fastest enemy. |
Amora and Professor M are the newest faces here, so treat their spots as early reads. Amora’s pull rate is set differently from standard featured Saviors, so check the rates before you commit. Professor M only reaches her ceiling when your team can actually use her joint attacks.
You’ll also notice how much Moon shows up near the top. Emilly, Eternal Promise: Carmen, Fei, Claire, Frey, and Professor M give Moon the deepest bench in the game right now.
A Tier: Solid Saviors That Fill Gaps
| Savior | Attribute | Why She’s Here |
| Ceres | Moon | A Freeze-heavy striker who is much stronger in PvP than PvE. |
| Seira | Order | Boosts an ally’s attack and turn speed, then acts again herself. |
| Luna* | Order | A wave-clearing caster who loses value against single bosses. |
| White Pearl Trap: Luna | Sun | A summer tank who cuts critical damage taken and fires back when enemies crit. |
| Sunshine Cat: Smile | Star | A summer assassin who chains Special Skills once her conditions line up. |
| Charlotte* | Sun | A single-target striker who also buffs an ally’s crit rate and attack. |
| Elisa | Chaos | A healer who can revive a fallen ally, with more value in PvP. |
| Kyra | Sun | A stealth assassin with big burst for Cosmo Gate bosses. |
| Dana* | Star | An AoE caster who boosts your top attacker’s damage. |
| Lugh* | Moon | A Freeze and DEF Down specialist for boss fights. |
| Petra | Sun | A DEF Down dealer who chips through enemy Toughness quickly. |
| Lydia* | Chaos | A speed-slowing debuffer whose damage grows over the fight. |
| Tanya | Star | Gives the whole team crit rate and speeds up Star teams. |
| Yoo Mina | Star | Inflicts Bleed that slips past enemy barriers. |
| Blessing in Bloom: Epindel | Sun | A wedding-themed assassin who cuts enemy turn gauges and punishes barriers. |
B and C Tiers: Situational Units and Early Fillers
B-tier Saviors aren’t useless. Harley works as a damage-focused tank, Serpang offers damage immunity windows, and Lily adds shields to Moon teams. Little Tyrant: Scarlet, the bunny-suit Scarlet, can still spread burns in Sun teams. They just need the right boss or team to justify the investment.
C tier is mostly SR Saviors like Annah, Vera, and Claire. They carry your early progress, and Stellar Blooming can raise their ceiling later. Still, don’t pour premium resources into them while your SSR roster has gaps.
StarSavior PvP Tier List (Gauntlet)
Gauntlet rewards control, cleanses, and survivability far more than raw damage. That reshuffles the rankings in a big way. Noble Princess: Frey and Flawless Blue Rose: Claire drop sharply, while Ceres, Carnelia, and Hilde climb.
| Tier | Saviors |
| S+ | Rosaria, Hilde, Waltz of Starlight: Asherah, Emilly, Amora, Eternal Promise: Carmen, Carnelia |
| S | Ceres, Bell Rhys, Seira, Fei, Tyria, Professor M, White Pearl Trap: Luna, Elisa, Lyn, Luna*, Charlotte* |
| A | Heart of Monastir: Charlotte, Lacy*, Haydee, Kyra, Roberta, Cristelle, Blessing in Bloom: Epindel, Sunshine Cat: Smile |
| B | Muriel, Flawless Blue Rose: Claire, Lugh*, Petra, Tanya, Dana*, Yoo Mina, Lydia*, Harley, Little Tyrant: Scarlet, Carmen |
| C | Noble Princess: Frey, Asherah*, Frey*, Serpang*, Omega, Smile, Lily*, Epindel, Trish, all SR Saviors |
Key Saviors for StarSavior PvP
- Waltz of Starlight: Asherah: Her cleanses break up debuff-heavy teams, and her follow-up heals soften burst openers. Few Saviors steady a Gauntlet team as well as she does.
- Hilde: She shields the whole team at the start of a fight, then taunts the fastest enemy. That blunts speed-based openers before they ever land.
- Carnelia: She blocks enemy buffs and pushes back their turn gauge. Carefully timed combos fall apart when she’s on the other side.
- Rosaria and Amora: Both hit hard enough to swing a match in a single rotation. Amora’s self-cleanse also makes her tough to lock down with debuffs.
Pull Priorities: Who to Pull for in StarSavior Right Now
The safest pull order is simple: tank first, support second, then one main damage dealer in your strongest attribute. PvP specialists can wait until your PvE core is in place. Here’s how that plays out with the current Observation banners:
- Eternal Promise: Carmen (until October 7, 19:00 UTC): She’s back on a Featured Observation rerun. She’s limited, so this is the banner to prioritize if you missed her the first time.
- Professor M (until October 1, 19:00 UTC): She’s a strong pickup, especially for joint-attack teams. She’s not as essential as Carmen, though, so pull here only if Carmen is already covered.
- Select Observation (until October 7, 19:00 UTC): You pick your target from the standard SSR pool, including Cosmic Saviors. Point it at a missing tank or support, like Emilly or Waltz of Starlight: Asherah, if they’re in your pool.
Gwen, Professor M’s assistant, is set to join later during the A Study in Gray event. Keep a few Observation Tickets aside if you want her at launch.
Tips for Building a Strong StarSavior Team
- Build the backbone first: A tank and a support keep every fight stable. Your damage dealers only matter if they survive long enough to act.
- Commit to one attribute: Many kits reward allies of the same attribute. A focused Sun or Moon team scales better than a mixed lineup.
- Train properly in Journey: Journey decides a Savior’s final stats, so a rushed run can make a great unit look weak. Put your best runs into your core Saviors instead of spreading effort thin.
- Keep your SR Saviors around: SR fillers make early Operations and Interstellar Corridor floors easier. Stellar Blooming can also keep them useful longer than you’d expect.
Final Thoughts
StarSavior’s current meta revolves around a sturdy core. Eternal Promise: Carmen, Emilly, and Waltz of Starlight: Asherah keep teams alive. Rosaria, Lyn, and Heart of Monastir: Charlotte do the heavy lifting. If you’re starting fresh, lock in a tank and a support before chasing damage. Then build deep into one attribute, and the Moon is the strongest choice right now.
Keep an eye on the ten Saviors from the September 23 update, especially Frey and Serpang. Rankings will shift as Gwen arrives and those new kits settle, so revisit your priorities after each major update. Looking for another game to play alongside it?
