Foreword

The Apocalyptic Shadow Analytics is the fruit of collaboration between Prydwen and Spiral Stats who create beautiful infographics with character and team usage for Genshin Impact. They recently branched out to Honkai: Star Rail, so expect similar great images to be prepared by them for each Apocalyptic Shadow phase!

You can check their Honkai: Star Rail works by going here:

Spiral Stats

I would like to thank Grimro, MrPokke, KQM, Kafka Mains and Guoba communities for sharing their clear information with us! The stats you can find on the page will be updated on a bi-weekly basis to make them as accurate as possible and help you with clearing the current Apocalyptic Shadow phase!

If you have any suggestions about the contents of this page, contact the Spiral Stats team on Discord (username: lvlurarti) or Reddit (username: LvlUrArti). Also, if you want to see the raw data we have gathered, you can find them on our GitHub account, here.

Help us!

Help us make the Analytics better!

You just need to share your UID to help us. It's so simple!

If you want to share your Apocalyptic Shadow clear information with us, you simply need to fill the form below and provide us with your UID and make your Hoyo profile public - we will automatically parse the MoC clear information from your profile after that! The more people join the project, the better and more accurate data we can provide!

AS Stats Form

Average score 3.5

Additional information
  • The data has been last updated on 07/09/2025,
  • 5367 players shared their 3.5 Apocalyptic Shadow clear data with us (18970 of the sample are self-reported players that filled our form, 6397 are from random UIDs that we scanned),
  • Compared to Memory of Chaos, we're able to obtain the scores per side, so the average shows the actual performance of the character,
  • The data only includes characters information based on the usage in Apocalyptic Shadow stage 4 as the other stages are currently easy to clear by most players.
All characters [Only E0SX for 5*]

Character usage 3.5

Additional information
  • The data has been last updated on 07/09/2025,
  • 5367 players shared their 3.5 Apocalyptic Shadow clear data with us (18970 of the sample are self-reported players that filled our form, 6397 are from random UIDs that we scanned),
  • Characters are ranked with appearance rate, which is how often a character was used by all players, regardless of whether they own the character or not. Ownership rate currently cannot be obtained.
  • The data only includes characters information based on the usage in Apocalyptic Shadow stage 4 as the other stages are currently easy to clear by most players.
All characters

Character usage over time

The table below shows the average performance and usage rate in the last 3 phases of Apocalyptic Shadow - so what's being taken into account for the purpose of our tier list. We don't just look at the last phase data because the buffs and enemy layout heavily impact performance of some characters. Keep in mind that sometimes the data can be skewed - for example high usage rate usually negatively impacts the character cycles and the opposite also happens when a character isn't that popular, but performs above expectations thanks to dedicated fans. We don't take the data at face value, but further correlate it with our testing to get a better picture of which characters make clearing MoC easier.

Characters with * behind the data only have 1 phase worth of data, so they are pretty skewed.
