Epic Seven is a turn-based combat gacha game that allows players to take on challenging PVE and PVP content while collecting their favorites from the wide roster of characters available in the game. With over one hundred characters to chase, Epic Seven has been one of the top-performing Gacha games alongside Hankai Impact, Arknights, and Genshin Impact. Like most gacha games, Epic Seven has a long story full of missions for players to complete that explores the characters and the world they live in. The character roster in Epic Seve n is split between levels and classes. There are several classes in Epic Seven, those being Knight, Soulweaver, Thief, Ranger, Warrior, and Mage.
Each class speaks to the style of play each character has, from melee, to support, and ranged. In addition, each character has an elemental subtype similar to Fire Emblem Heroes archetype system. Regarding levels, characters are graded from three stars to five stars. These levels portray how strong and rare a character is in the game. The higher the level, the more abilities and skills the unit will have; each character is uniquely tuned and designed to stand out among the rest of the cast. Here are some of the best five-star units in Epic Seven.
7 Charles
Charles is a five-star member of the Knight class and does well in the tank position on teams able to buff allies' attack and his own defense. Charles is capable of being a solid addition to any team but does have some specific gear requirements to make sure he performs well.
Charles' skill one has a chance to decrease the target's attack and trigger a second attack. Charles' skill two has an eighty percent chance to cleanse all debuff on the team, while his skill three raises the attack of all party members for two turns.
6 Ruele Of Light
Ruele of Light is a five-star Soulweaver with the light elemental subtype. In addition, Ruele is also a moonlight summon and is the rarest of the rare when it comes to units in Epic Seven. As a Soulweaver, Ruele's skills excel in keeping her allies alive and even bringing them back from the dead.
As a Healer, Ruele is excellent support for any team as she can take care of her ally's debuffs and make sure they stay healthy while also being able to soak up some damage herself.
5 Specter Tenebria
Tenebria is another moonlight summon that belongs to the Mage class in Epic Seven and has the dark elemental subtype. Tenebria can deal substantial damage while also inflicting adverse effects on enemies like poison and stun.
Tenebria also has an above-average defense for mages and is also unaffected by single-target attacks. Tenebria performs well on any team, but she can be considered squishy due to her low-base health. Players will want to pair her with powerful support to keep her in the fight.
4 Fallen Cecilia
Fallen Cecilia is a dark-attuned member of the Knight class and must be obtained through moonlight summons. As a unit, Cecilia is an excellent tanky character that has strong defensive capabilities that protect her and her allies. Cecilia's skill one can provoke enemy attacks, forcing them to focus on her.
Additionally, Cecilia's passive skill two grants a two-turn barrier to all allies, targeting those with the lowest health. While it takes a bit of grinding to unleash Cecilia's full potential, she is a more than worth it unit if obtained.
3 Hwayoung
Hwayoung is a five-star warrior with the fire elemental subtype. Hwayoung is an excellent unit that can dish out some serious damage and protect herself at the same time. While Hwayoung has been the target of a string of recent nerfs, she can still hold her own when taking on challenging content in Epic Seven.
Hwayoung benefits from extra damage on her attack skills when specific parameters are met. Specifically, when Hwayoung is buffed, she deals extra damage on her skill one; additionally, Hwayoung also deals extra damage to enemies with higher health than her and may inflict defense breaks according to the difference in percentage difference.
2 Apocalypse Ravi
Apocalypse Ravi is a five-star warrior who specializes in single-target damage and critical hits. Ravi has the darkness elemental subtype due to her being a moonlight summon. Ravi's skill two is arguably her most valuable as it gives her a base buff to her critical chance, in addition to increasing her combat readiness when she's attacked.
Ravi has great survivability due to her skill one coming equipped with lifesteal; she also has the ability to revive a fallen ally after slaying an enemy.
1 Archdemon's Shadow
Archedemon's Shadow is a powerful unit in Epic Seven and can only be obtained via moonlight summons; she is a dark-attuned elemental unit belonging to the Mage class. Shadow is a valuable unit for a number of reasons but her ability to use the seal status effect makes her the most unique character in the game.
Seal restricts the abilities that enemy heroes can use during combat. Shadow's ability to inflict the Seal status on targets is highly useful in tipping the scales in a player's favor. With the critical hit decrease in her skill two and the burn damage from her skill three, Shadow is a powerhouse on any team.
Epic Seven is available to play on mobile devices that support Android and iOS.
