Rabbit & Steelis aunique take on the roguelike genre, combining the problem-solving elements of MMORPG raiding with elaborate bullet patterns from bullet hell shoot ‘em ups to create a fresh action-puzzle hybrid. Players select one of 10 different classes, each with their own set of unique abilities that can be altered in unique ways with gem upgrades and a randomly selected assortment of items to take on a gauntlet of enemies and bosses.
While every class is capable of completing a full run, their distinct strengths and weaknesses naturally make some more suited for the challenges that can arise in the course of a playthrough, whether it’s the strength of their default skillset, powerful gem upgrade combinations, or a once-in-a-lifetime game-breaking item build. The following is a tier list ranking all 10 classes of Rabbit & Steel’s 1.0.0.4 patch.
Rabbit & Steel Tier List
While the game has only just been released, players have already begun to discover powerful item builds and obscure synergies that provide some classes unique advantages over the competition. While some classes have broken out as early favorites, don’t be surprised to see some of the game-breaking combinations such as the triple Dancer and Druid with garnet defensive upgrades strategy receive some adjustments in future patches.

S-Tier Classes
The best classes in Rabbit & Steel all combine a solid set of abilities with either strong supportive abilities, incredible damage output, or both. Their powerful default skills not only allow them to thrive in any situation but leave them versatile enough to reliably adapt to whatever random items and shop inventory they come across.
A-Tier Classes
Classes within the A-tier are able to handle just about any situation the game can throw at them but don’t necessarily reach the game-breaking heights that some of the classes in S-tier can reach. While solidly safe picks, these classes might have a few weaknesses that can see them struggle in certain scenarios or be a bit more item-dependant than their S-tier counterparts.
B-Tier Classes
While solidly capable of completing runs even on harder difficulties, the weaknesses of classes in the B-tier are not uncommon to see in an average run. They may be able to shine with the right builds, but can be reliant on finding the right items and upgrades to truly thrive, and may often struggle without the right synergies.
C-Tier Classes
The C-tier represents classes that generally struggle in an important aspect that is commonly tested throughout the game, placing them at a concrete disadvantage compared to other classes. While they are perfectly capable of successfully completing a run, players will likely face challenges that are rarer or not present at all for other classes.
