The Black Friday Tier List (Patreon)
Content
So, with Black Friday looming on 27th of November (this Friday) I thought it would be beneficial to all for me to go back through all of the Expansions and White Boxes (game content) listing how good they all are. So if you are on a budget and looking to pick up a few items here or there. I'm going to tier list them, so you know how good they are, with the tier grades running from D to A and finally S tier being the best. This will be blocked into two sections (Expansions and then White Boxes) and no considerations have been taken into consideration in respect of price, this is rated entirely on how good and balanced the game content is, not miniatures or costs.
Expansions
S-Tier
This is the very best of the best, they are as close to essential purchases as you can get.
- Sunstalker
- Gorm
- Dragon King
- Slenderman
A-Tier
Always a good addition to your basket if you can't get the ones above.
- Manhunter
- Dung Beetle Knight
B-Tier
Pretty middle of the road expansions.
- None
C-Tier
These expansions are flawed in some ways but have potential and are worth picking up when discounted because we have seen suggestions that they will become better with Campaigns of Death.
- Lonely Tree
- Spidicules
- Green Armor
D-Tier
Avoid these unless you have very specific needs for them. Some of these may get better in the future, but probably not until Wave 4 when they get their campaigns.
- Lion Knight
- Flower Knight (Unless you need to make the game easier, then it is C-tier)
- Lion God
- White Gigalion
White Box Expansions
S-Tier
- Ringtail Vixen
- Fade
- Till Death Do Us Part
- White Speaker
A-Tier
- 10th Anniversary Survivors
- Halloween White Speaker
- Holiday White Speaker Nico
- White Speaker Sword Hunter
- X-mas Special Pinup Twilight Knight
- Pinups of Death I (Strange Spot)
B-Tier
- Allison the Twilight Knight
- Echoes of Death 1
- Before the Wall (move this to A-Tier if you are not going abuse the Black Sword with it)
C-Tier
- Echoes of Death 2
- Easter Aya
- Valentines Day Twilight Knight
- Beyond the Wall
- 10th Anniversary White Speaker
D-Tier
- Percival
- Oktoberfest Aya
- Swashbuckler
- Santa Satan
- Pinup Easter Twilight Knight
- Devil Satan
- Halloween Ringtail Fox
Any White Boxes not on this list are promotional items and have no official ways to integrate them into the game. And of course, this is only my opinions, based on a few thousand completed settlement campaigns (and a lot more abandoned/lost along the way).
If anyone has any specific questions on purchasing stuff, or wants speculation about the best options in the future content in case the pledge manager opens, this is also your opportunity to ask.
