C-Tier Nikke Characters
The C-tier nikke characters are a little weak in the current meta. While you can still plug and play with them in different teams, the utility provided by them is simply not as strong as characters in the above tiers. This can happen due to a variety of reasons, with the primary one being no buffs post release. Some characters are also low rarity, making them weaker in general due to low base stats.

Goddess of Victory: Nikke Character Classes Explained
If you want to build the best nikke team, it’s important not only to know the strong characters but also which roles they fulfill. That’s right, each Nikke character has a specific role in the team. For an effective team-building recipe, you need to firstly understand the character roles. Nikke character roles (or classes) are as follows:
- DPS – The DPS nikke characters are those who actually deal damage to enemies. Make sure to have at least one of them in your squad.
- Offense-oriented Support – These supportive characters often help you gain important buffs like increased attack, crit chance, crit damage, hit chance, charge damage, attack speed, or inflict defense, resistance, debuffs.
- Defense-oriented Support – These are the support characters who have access to powerful utility buffs for the entire team. You can use them to get increased defense, resistance, shields, immunity, damage sharing and more buffs.
- Healers – Struggling to keep your squad alive in Nikke? Then you’re in much need of healer characters. These T-dolls can help you regain lost health and provide heals over time buffs for continued sustain.
- Energy Support – These characters help in recharging your burst energy. Use them in teams to gain access to burst skills faster.
- Taunt Tank – These sturdy characters can absorb a ton of damage for your squad. They divert the attention and focusfire of enemies towards them via the help of Taunt debuffs.
