If, much like the protagonist himself, you can’t tell your Clouds from your Zacks, then you’re going to need a Final Fantasy Ever Crisis tier list. In this guide, we hope to aid you in picking out the best characters from First Soldier all the way through to Advent Children so you can take Sephiroth down with ease.
Before we fill your mind with thoughts of Tifa, Red XIII, Barret, and more, you should take a look at our Final Fantasy Ever Crisis codes, our list of the best Final Fantasy games, and maybe even our Final Fantasy Crisis Core Switch review.

Final Fantasy Ever Crisis characters
Here’s a brief overview of each of the characters so you know which roles they fill in-game.
Cloud Strife – DPS
Unsurprisingly, Cloud Strife is in the S-tier of our list. He’s the most powerful DPS in the game at the moment and we recommend pairing him with the Apocalypse and Murasame weapons to reach his full potential.
Barret Wallace – sub-DPS
Barret falls into the A-tier on our list as he can’t quite match up to the brute strength of Cloud. He can do some solid long-range AoE damage when paired with his Enemy Launcher, Heavy Hauser, or W Machine weapons.
Tifa Lockhart – sub-DPS
Tifa is very capable of dishing out decent magic and physical damage, she’s A-tier in our books. You could slot her or Barret into your sub-DPS role. Equip her with the Sonic Striker and Tiger Fangs gloves to make the most out of damage output.
Aerith Gainsborough – support
If you know anything about Final Fantasy 7 you’re probably not surprised that Aerith is the best healer in the game and lands in the S-tier of our list. Make sure you equip her with the Fairy Tale and Wizard Staff.
Red XIII – support
Red XIII is in B-tier on our list, he’s okay in a support role and can heal allies and dish out AoE magic damage. We recommend equipping him with the Platinum Collar and Gold Collar.
Zack Fair – DPS
Zack is a great choice for your main DPS character. He performs well against single bosses and you can use him instead of Cloud if you like. Equip him with the Falchion and Zweihander swords.
Glenn Lodbrock – DPS or sub-DPS
Another B-tier character, Glenn is an okay choice to use for DPS or sub-DPS. However, you’re better off going with Cloud. His best weapons are Apology In Hell and Rest in Peace.
Matt Winsord – support or sub-DPS
Matt could almost slot into our S-tier but he doesn’t quite make it. He’s proficient in both a support role with his debuffs and healing, but can also pack a punch against enemies. Equip him with the Broadsword: Axis, Prime Number, or Slick Beetle weapons.
Lucia Lin – support or sub-DPS
The only character in our C-tier is Lucia Lin. She has the ability to silence enemies, which may be useful later in the game, but didn’t help us too much early on. She works best with the Mad Minute and Serpent Eater weapons.
Young Sephiroth
We’ve put this handsome young fella in the S tier of our list as he can perform some pretty hefty ice damage against foes. We recommend you equip him with the Edged Wings as his main weapon along with either Aonibi to boost his MATK or Shinra Blade: Model I for a good non-elemental damage attack.
