Re:AOPG Raid Tier List

What the Raid Tier List Is

The Raid Tier List is the meta ranking of every build combination in Re:AOPG for raid boss damage after Patch 5.8 Gods Valley. The list ranks each build by sustained DPS in a 5-minute raid clear. The list is updated every patch and is reset after every major balance change. For the broader meta breakdown, see the endgame builds, the Gods Valley bosses page, and the bosses hub.

Why Fire Builds Dominate Raids

The Gods Valley Native race + Seraphim support + Godhuman fire stack dominates raid damage because of three multiplicative passives. In Patch 5.8, Gods Valley Native replaced Perfect Lunarian V4 as the top raid race thanks to its combat HP regen passive.

1. Gods Valley Native combat HP regen:

• Passive HP regen while in combat, which lets you stand in front of a raid boss for the full 5-minute clear window without pot-chugging.
• +15% damage against raid bosses.
• Stacks with the Godly Saberu hidden passive (+25% damage against Sea 3 raid bosses).
• Stacks with the Seraphim support fire aura.
• Total fire damage stacks to roughly 4x base damage in raid lobbies.

2. Godhuman fire scaling:

• Godhuman’s M1 chain deals fire damage on every third hit.
• Scales with the Haki cap (2000) and the Blox Fruit stat (800).
• The canonical pairing for any fire build.

3. Seraphim support fire aura:

• Adds a passive fire aura buff to the player.
• Extends the fire aura duration.
• Stacks with both passives above.

The combined fire damage output is roughly 4x the pre-Patch 5.8 top build.

How to Climb the Raid Ladder

The fastest way to climb the raid damage bracket in Patch 5.8:

1. Build the S-tier fire build (Gods Valley Native + Dough (Awakened) + Godhuman + Godly Saberu + Seraphim + Sword Saint).
2. Run with a 4-person coordinated squad.
3. Bank every Godly Saberu shard from raid drops (3 shards = 1 Godly Saberu).
4. Redeem the code RaidBoost2026 for a temporary +10% damage boost.
5. Run the same raid 5+ times a day for consistency.

See the raid hub for the full boss ladder and the raid damage brackets for the leaderboard.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Running non-coordinated squads — you will not crack the top 100.
• Using non-fire builds against fire bosses — most raid bosses have elemental weaknesses.
• Skipping the daily reset — the rewards cap at one clear per day, so prioritize the best clear.
• Burning Godly shards — Godly shards are bracket rewards, not boss drops. Stockpile.
• Selling bracket titles — the title is the long-term reward and cannot be re-earned for the patch.
• Holding pre-Patch 5.8 builds — the Gods Valley patch rebalanced the raid ladder. The full rebalance list is on the Patch 5.8 Gods Valley page.
