Please Note: Dragons are placed in their tier, but their placement within the tier is alphabetacle. This does not reflect their power within the tier. All dragons in a similar tier are considered similarly useful.

This tier list can be seen as a guide to which dragons are the safest, most broadly useful investment. A higher tier dragon is going to be useful on more Adventurers and will be able to help you clear harder content. It is far safer to use Sunlight Stones on a tier 1 or 1.5 Dragon than it is on a tier 3 Dragon, but individual preferences and needs are still important.

Also note that the tier list is heavily segregated by element. As different elements have different access to dragons, their power levels can vary wildly.

Tier 1 - Meta

A Dragon in the top tier is one that sees heavy usage in end game content (Primarily Master or Expert Agito). It's widely considered to be the optimum dragon for a number of Adventurers in their element. They should also not require any specific team build, instead being generally useful to most of their elemental Roster. Generally, only DPS focused Dragons are found in this tier as the majority of Adventurers are DPS focused and most content calls for more DPS Adventurers than support or defensive ones.

Tier 1.5 - Near Meta

Placement in tier 1.5 indicates that a Dragon is very useful for progression, having a wide range of applicability on multiple Adventurers, as well as being powerful enough to clear the hardest content. Often the difference between these dragons and the very best is one of minor degrees, but in end game progression every little bit counts.

Tier 2 - Off Meta

These are older dragons that have simply been eclipsed by newer ones. They're still good enough to clear content, but it's going to be harder and sometimes pugs will start to avoid you for using a dragon that is simply no longer at the top of their game.

Tier 3 - Sub-optimal

These are dragons that are just not the best around. Lower rarity gatcha dragons like Juggernaught belong here, along with the better F2P dragons like High Mercury or Mini-mids. There are also some dragons, like Primed Dragons, that while higher rarity are just not good enough.

Tier 4 - Not for Progression

These dragons are simply not what you want to use to clear content. They are either F2P dragons or low rarity dragons and just don't cut it for serious content, or designed for farming resources.
