Best Characters 2021

scruffy13 · April 2

Can someone give me an up to date guide to the best characters to focus on NOW . All guides are quite out of date now and new characters are not mentioned. Also several old useless characters have had upgrades and are now supposedly better. Thanks guys

Carl_Tyreese999 · April 5

Scouts: SRick, HDaryl
Brusiers: RGG, Eugene
Warriors: Beta, (Maybe Michonne)
Shooters: Rick, Hilltop Maggie, Aaron
Assaults: Rufus, Abraham, Princess
Hunters: Sasha

These are the best heroes in the game. Not to say they are the only useful ones because they're not however these are like the essentials and are higher priority than other heroes. After you have these guys maxed out with rerolled traits, badges, legendary gear, etc. Focus on the other heroes. For a more detailed explanation reference @JayZ wonderful strategy guide

I agree that most of the players mentioned above are good to develop. Personally I dont really use Aaron very much.
I would add Pizza Glenn, Shane and TDog to that list of characters.

In the beginning, you can level up way faster, if you only have a few heroes.
If you save your radios for alt hero calls only, you can level up and reroll
SRick
HDaryl
Rgg
HMaggie.
Sasha, Eugene and one Assault hero like Abe or Princess should also be leveled.
There are many other good heroes like Shane, Morgan, TDog...
But they can wait.

I’m a big fan of Tara and her healing Leader Trait. I might be in the minority, but I think she’s great in the Challenge to help get those 3 Stars. I’ll usually run her with Bruiser Morgan and Michonne thru Round 42 with great success.

of course, if I want to push further, then using other Heroes becomes more necessary. I just think Tara is great for the early/mid-gamers. End-gamers will definitely use other Heroes.

am i the only one who destroys everything (even GW Players) with a Decimator Rosita then?....

IcePeter · April 12

Decimator Rosita leads my outpost raid team, but she doesn’t get a lot of love here since an offensive assault is fairly useless at higher levels, so her leader trait is awful on an assault. Give her trait to a shooter and we’d be in business

Burmeliinis · April 13

I would say that none of those previous lists are correct, so here's mine A list

Scouts: Survivalist Rick, Huntsman Daryl, Pizza Guy Glenn
Warriors: Beta
Bruisers: Eugene, RGG (good to have three, so add T-Dog / Morgan as well)
Hunters: Sasha, Shane
Shooters: Hilltop Maggie
Assaults: Princess, Rufus

With these you have already everything covered, anyone else is just to have some stand-ins so you manage with less healing gold and get further in the Distance.

This won't work at difficulties much higher than you troop level. The enemy will laugh at you.

It'll be semi-ok vs human PVP since those difficulties are very low, with enemies the same level as your troops.

As @Icepeter said, at higher levels, Rosita is trash and investing in her will hold you back rather than elevate your game.

ill take that as a Challenge

ATLAS-Z · April 14

@DyAmond they're your resources, best of luck

scruffy13 · April 14

The same names keep popping up on the majority of lists. Only variant appears to be on Assaults and Shooters. Seems to me like it's a personal preference thing. I have my list now that I am working on, thanks to everyone for your input even xbamfx who obviously wanted me totally f------ed up lol

Scotticus · April 15

Have the announced updates for Negan, and the introduction of Beth and Yumiko changed how people may view the answer to this question?

Especially since these leadership traits can all affect a whole group, even when, as mentioned, Beth isn't even the leader.

Does Yumiko's mad skillz make a more range-focused team more viable? Is Negan now a top-tier bash-man or is his NMl counterpart kind of the opposite of his in-show counterpart (by which I mean, at this point, he's the shows MVP. Fight me if you must)

WellyLuga · April 15

I think Negan will be top 2, I think Eugene will remain king of the bruisers but he will give him a good run for his money. I'd certainly put him above RGG, Morgan and T-Dog.

Yumiko sounds like she might be the strongest shooter in the game. The only caveat being that she would need to be in lead with a full ranged team and I'm not sure how viable that's going to be at high level. When she's not in lead or with a mixed team it becomes quite a lot weaker.
