Disclaimers
Tier lists are inherently a problematic way to convey information and should be used carefully. Here's some limitations we have identified:
- Character tier lists do not convey synergies well: In Persona 5: Phantom X, certain characters pair and synergize better than with others, which puts their power level above the average. A tier list organized at the individual character level will inevitably run into presentation issues inherent to depicting an individual character’s value within a team without the context of the team(s). Readers are encouraged to exercise their due diligence when using the tier lists.
- Information gets lost in aggregation: Representing a character’s power level as an aggregate of their performance across different game modes introduces some level of ambiguity. The subjective nature of such assessments will inevitably cause a gap between a character’s rating and their actual in-game performance.
- The tier lists are not an end-all reference: The Prydwen’s Persona 5: Phantom X Tier lists are intended to be used as an aid to quickly compare characters, especially for newer players trying to scope out the game’s roster. Players are heavily encouraged to supplement the Tier Lists with our reviews and the various resources available through the game’s many online communities.
- Due to Wonder being always present fixed party member, and due to his versatility, he is not included in the tier list, but no matter the situation or context, he would always be among the best supports.
