Tier List Breakdown
S-Tier: Elite All-Rounders
- Big Game Hunter – Consume pelts for powerful bonuses, including the ability to infinitely consume mammoth tusks to permanently boost health.
- Cyborg – Comes with Alien Armor and a Laser Cannon; excels at tanking and dispatching clustered enemies with devastating AOE attacks.
- Alien – Equipped with a fast-firing Raygun and boosted sprint speed when energy is full; great for fast-paced scouting and survival.
- Assassin – Starts with a katana (functioning like a spear) and 120 kunai; excels at distance combat with crit potential and chest rewards.
- Ranger – A solid, cost-effective class offering a revolver with bonus ammo refund chance—rarely outclassed early on.
- Poison Master, Pyromaniac, Blacksmith also inhabit this top tier for their game-changing perks.
If you’re ready to unlock these S-Tier powerhouses without endless grinding, the fastest route is checking the 99 Nights in the Forest shop, where players secure top-tier classes and gear to dominate every night with ease.
A-Tier: Strong Specialists
- Support, Hunter, Lumberjack, Brawler, Berserker – These are role-specific classes delivering powerful bonuses in focused areas like combat, resource gathering, or melee strength.
B-Tier: Useful but Situational
- Chef, Medic, Farmer, Cook, Gambler – Provide valuable support like healing, food, or utility. Still, their impact is less consistent under pressure.
C-Tier: Generally Weak
- Scavenger, Camper, Decorator, Base Defender, Fisherman – These classes offer minimal benefits and are often seen as not worth diamond investment.
Player Community Perspectives
Here’s what fellow players are saying:
“S Tier: The best classes in the game… Chef, Farmer, Lumberjack, Alien, and Cyborg.”
In team play, having all five S-tier classes together creates a well-rounded, unstoppable squad.
Some players offer nuanced takes on specific classes:
- Camper is a decent early starter but quickly outpaced once stronger classes become available.
- Blacksmith is praised for enabling higher-level crafting sooner and offering discounts—particularly valuable midgame.
- Assassin excels for its high DPS from ranged kunai and mobility, though frail health demands careful play.
Another breakdown points toward team role alignment:
“Scavenger—for scrap; Cook—for base support and hearty stews; Lumberjack—for wood collectors; Brawler—great if you’re skilled in melee.”
Best Classes by Playstyle & Strategy
| Playstyle / Goal | Top Class(es) | Why It Works |
|---|---|---|
| Solo Powerhouse | Cyborg, Alien, Assassin | High damage, mobility, and crowd control |
| Team Support & Sustenance | Chef, Farmer, Blacksmith | Food, crafting upgrades, and resource efficiency |
| Resource Gathering (Wood/Scrap) | Lumberjack, Scavenger, Blacksmith | Maximize vital materials like wood, scrap, and crafting savings |
| Survivor Flexibility | Ranger, Big Game Hunter, Poison Master | Versatile gear access and independent survivability |
| Early-game Starter | Camper (initially), Scavenger | Enables basic early progression until stronger classes are unlocked |
Next Steps
- In all-out team synergy, a dream line-up includes Chef, Farmer, Lumberjack, Alien, and Cyborg—each filling a vital niche (food, resources, mobility, offense).
- Solo runs favor Cyborg, Alien, or Assassin due to combat independence and powerful gear.
- Midgame transitions benefit greatly from Blacksmith for faster upgrades, Big Game Hunter for health longevity, and Poison Master or Pyromaniac for destructive flair.
- Avoid investing diamonds in C-tier classes like Camper, Decorator, or Scavenger—their returns rarely justify the cost.
