Visit TOPUPlive for the latest game news and top-up discounts!
▍God Tier: Harmony
Harmony is undoubtedly the most noble Path in this game. The best 4-star character, Tingyun, is Harmony; the best standard 5-star character, Bronya, is Harmony; the best free character, Ruan Mei, is Harmony; and the best limited 5-star character, Tribbie, is also Harmony.
Harmony characters can generally pair with different DPSs, bringing significant improvements to the team. You can pull for DPSs based on preference, but Harmony characters are a must-pull.
▍God Tier: Remembrance
Remembrance is somewhat overpowered and lacks a clear combat role. If the developers want a Remembrance character to be a DPS, they create Anaxa and Castorice; if they want a Remembrance character to be a support, they create the Memokeeper; if they want a Remembrance character to be a sustain unit, they create Hyacine.
Remembrance characters are top-tier in their respective fields and are highly suited to the Amphoreus version, fully benefiting from environmental advantages (such as buffs triggered only by Memosprites in the Abyss). They truly deserve the God Tier rating.

▍Top Tier: Destruction
Among DPS Paths, Destruction DPSs excel in both single-target and multi-target scenarios, possess inherent durability, and have always been synonymous with simplicity and usability. The Destruction trio from version 1.0, Firefly and Yunli from version 2.0, and Mydei, Phainon, and Saber from version 3.0 are all popular Destruction DPSs.
Destruction is the most popular DPS Path. However, overall, it is not as versatile as Harmony, nor does it have every character being top-tier like Remembrance. Therefore, it cannot be rated as God Tier and is slightly lower, placed in the Top Tier.
▍Upper Echelon: Nihility, The Hunt, Erudition, Abundance
Nihility characters might not have been well-received in the past, but the Nihility Path has now risen. Hysilens has made DoT teams a dominant force in the current version. Kafka and Silver Wolf are also two of the most highly praised characters among the four that were buffed. The Nihility Path also boasts top-tier characters like Acheron from its "lineage," deserving of the Upper Echelon rating.
The Hunt characters' strength ceiling is not lower than Destruction's, but they rely heavily on manual operation. Their performance on auto-battle is significantly worse than manual play, making them less suitable for casual players. Thus, they are rated lower than Destruction and placed in the Upper Echelon.
Erudition characters are highly dependent on the environment. They excel in multi-target scenarios but are average in single-target scenarios. Even Herta, who has high single-target multipliers, requires a multi-target environment to regenerate energy and stack Interpretation. Currently, multi-target environments are less common than when Amphoreus was first introduced, so Erudition is placed in the Upper Echelon alongside The Hunt. Of course, there is an exception among Erudition characters—Anaxa, who prefers single-target environments.
Abundance characters can protect the team and also provide some support effects, such as Huohuo's energy regeneration and ATK boost, or Lingsha's increase in Break DMG taken by enemies. In daily teams, having an Abundance character to maintain the party's HP is also comfortable. However, all Abundance characters are healers, and their spotlight has been stolen by Remembrance's Hyacine, so they are only placed in the Upper Echelon.
▍Standard: Preservation
Preservation can only be rated as Standard. Apart from the new Path Remembrance, Preservation has the fewest characters, with only 5. Limited Preservation characters are only Fu Xuan and Aventurine. Fu Xuan is rarely used now, and although Aventurine can still be deployed, he often conflicts with the popular HP-centric team compositions.
Although Preservation has the strongest protective capabilities, many DPSs now possess extremely strong self-sustain, making Preservation's unique strengths less impactful.
▍Conclusion
All 8 Paths have their own roles, and there are many useful characters within each. So, which Path's characters do you like the most?
