Hero Siege Tier List – All Character Classes Ranked

Fans of Action Role-Playing Games are likely familiar with Hero Siege, a hack & slash roguelike game from 2014. Currently, it’s part of Steam’s spring sale and has recently been updated with a significant patch. Consequently, there’s been an increase in the number of players, making it relevant to revise the character class tier list for Hero Siege.

All Character Classes Ranked – Hero Siege Tier List

AAmazon, Necromancer, Demonspawn, Plague Doctor, Illusionist, Demon Slayer, Nomad
BExo, Pirate, Pyromancer, Shield Lancer
CMarauder, Viking, Butcher, Redneck, Shaman

As a devoted fan, I’m sharing my insights on Hero Siege’s character classes, which are organized into four tiers—S, A, B, and C—from top-tier to those that might not be your first pick. This ranking is based on factors such as the characters’ performance, skills, and ease of leveling up, designed to help newcomers tackle higher difficulty rounds more effectively.

However, remember that this tier list is subjective, so what works well for the player community may not align with your preferred playstyle. Therefore, I encourage you to experiment with various heroes until you find the ideal match for your unique approach to gaming!
