Ranger heroes are DPS based characters, offering different methods of debuffing and inflicting damage on enemies.
They’re one of the most unique classes in the game, with many of the heroes having unique skill-sets, providing a variety of damage and utility.
Every Epic Seven player should have at least 1 ranger hero of each primary element.
There’s so many available, with gear being quite limited, even for mid-game players.
Some heroes are great for PvP, some absolutely dominate Abyss and others are excellent supportive heroes.
If you’re looking to find what ranger hero to invest in, I’ll be providing a list of the best.
A few heroes might be difficult to obtain if you’re just starting out, but they’ll make you aware of them, in case they become easily available!
10. Silk
Attribute: Earth
Recommended Set: Speed/Crit Chance
How to get: 4* Covenant Summon & Connections
Skill 1: Single Shot
Burn Effect: Grants an extra turn.
Shoots arrows at the enemy, decreasing their Combat Readiness by 7%. Damage dealt increases proportional to the caster’s Speed.
Skill 2: Concentration
Gains 1 Focus at the end of the turn, and consumes 1 Focus when attacked, increasing Combat Readiness by 15%.
If the caster’s stacked Focus is more than 2, Single Shot is enhanced to Automatic Fire and damage dealt is increased.
Skill 3: Storm Arrow
Attacks all enemies with wind, with a 85% chance to decrease Speed for 2 turns, and granting increase Speed to all allies for 2 turns.
Used as a speedy supportive hero, Silk excels in a role designed to give your team as many turns as possible.
Particularly useful in certain Abyss floors, granting speed to allies, as well as reducing enemy speed, gives your team a lot more turns.
Due to her base speed and the fact you’ll build her speedy, she’ll be attacking before any other hero.
She’s great for facing certain PvP teams!
9. Kiris
Attribute: Earth
Recommended Set: Speed/Hit Chance
How to get: 3* Covenant Summon
Skill 1: Venomous Arrow
Fires a poisoned arrow at the enemy, with a 35% chance to inflict poison for 2 turns.
Skill 2: Corrosive Volley
Burn Effect: Ignores effect resistance. (-20 Souls)
Fires a corrosive volley to all enemies, extending any debuff duration by 1 turn.
Skill 3: Preperation
Strengthens the caster’s next attack, granting an extra turn.
Venomous Arrow: Increases effect chance to 100% and poison effects can be stacked up to 3 times.
Corrosive Volley: Extends debuff duration by 2 turns.
Literally every player should build Kiris, specifically for her role in Abyss floors.
Most of the bosses have tons of HP to get through, backed up by additional mobs and annoying skills.
Applying poison consistently is a way of cheesing floors, as many bosses can’t survive the constant poison hits.
I was personally stuck around floor 84 until I geared up Kiris.
You don’t even need decent gear on her, or a high level, just aim for 90% effectiveness and enough speed to attack first.
8. Pavel
Attribute: Earth
Recommended Set: Attack/Crit Chance
How to get: 4* Covenant Summon
Skill 1: Hurricane Sword
Strikes the enemy with a gun, with a 60% chance to decrease Hit Chance for 1 turn.
Damage dealt increases proportional to the caster’s Speed.
Skill 2: Storm Bullet
Burn Effect: Grants an extra turn.
Grants the caster increased Attack for 2 turns, before firing a strong blast of wind at all enemies.
Damage dealt increases proportional to caster’s Speed.
This skill cannot trigger a counterattack.
Skill 3: Destructive Pursuit
Swiftly cuts and shoots the enemy.
When the enemy is not an Elite or Boss monster, damage sharing effects are ignored.
Damage dealt increases proportional to caster’s Speed.
Pavel is a great PvP ranger, designed to target and destroy Ice element heroes in Guild War/Arena teams.
He does a ton of damage but needs some set-up.
Specifically a team with fast healers to grant immunity or barriers, allowing him to survive long enough to deal the damage he can.
7. Landy
Attribute: Earth
Recommended Set: Speed/Crit Chance
How to get: Limited Summon
Skill 1: Fire
Fires at the enemy and increases the caster’s Combat Readiness by 10%.
Combat Readiness increase and amount of Fighting Spirit gained are doubled when the enemy is buffed.
Skill 2: The Chief is on the Scene
Increases the caster’s attack by 15% after attacking.
Effect can only stack up to 3 times.
Gains 10 Fighting Spirit for each buff granted on the enemy, and when the Fighting Spirit is full, resets skill cooldown.
Starts the first battle with 50 Fighting Spirit.
Skill 3: Full Burst
Burn Effect: Grants an extra turn.
Fires at all enemies and grants all allies increased Speed for 2 turns, before increasing their Combat Readiness by 15%.
When Fighting Spirit is full, consumes all Fighting Spirit to penetrate the target’s Defense by 50%.
This skill cannot trigger a counterattack.
Landy is an absolute nightmare to face in Arena, I’m really tired of my fast heroes getting out-sped by their meager heroes, purely due to Landy’s speed buffs.
She deals a surprising amount of damage too, with her skill 2 buffing her attack stat every turn.
Amassing up to 45% extra attack is insane, with an attack or lifesteal build also working well on her.
6. Iseria
Attribute: Earth
Recommended Set: Effectiveness/Speed
How to get: 5* Covenant Summon
Skill 1: Refined Flower
Burn Effect: Increases effect chance by 50% and increases damage dealt. Does not trigger a Dual Attack.

Skill 2: Oathkeeper
Resets skill cooldown of an ally except for the caster with light energy.
Grants an extra turn.
Skill 3: Full Bloom
Attacks with a giant Magic Sword, dispelling all buffs, decreasing Defense, and making them unable to be buffed for 2 turns.
Defense break on skill 1, dispell on skill 3 and a cooldown reset on skill 2, Iseria has tons of uses.
She’s not the best for dealing damage, instead she works well alongside heroes who start the battle with a skill on cooldown.
Otherwise, she can act as a strong defense breaker to force your way through bosses.
5. Furious
Attribute: Ice
Recommended Set: Speed/Effectiveness
How to get: 4-star Covenant Summon & Connections
Skill 1: Quick Draw
Fires a gun while dashing towards the enemy, with a 20% chance to burn for 2 turns.
Skill 2: Morale Boost
Raises morale of all allies, granting Critical Hit Chance for 2 turns, before granting the caster an extra turn.
Skill 3: Fatal Bullet
Burn Effect: Increases damage dealt.
Attacks with a fatal shot, with an 80% chance to decrease Defense for 2 turns.
Furious has just one purpose and that’s to be the best wyvern hero in the game.
His entire kit is designed to take down bosses.
On his own, he won’t deal much damage.
Instead, he provides buffs & utility to his team to help them succeed.
Boosting cit chance by 35% and applying defense breaks to enemy bosses, results in a powerful ranger.
4. Lidica
Attribute: Fire
Recommended Set: Speed/Effectiveness
How to get: 5* Covenant Summon
Skill 1: Wild Rose
Attacks with a sword, decreasing Combat Readiness by 15%.
If the enemy is debuffed, decreases Combat Readiness by another 10%.

Skill 3: Public Execution
Attacks the enemy with a whip sword, decreasing buff duration by 1 turn, before decreasing Combat Readiness by 100% and decrease Speed for 2 turns.
Grants the caster Skill Nullifier, negating damage received from the next attack.
Lidica exists to prevent enemies from doing anything.
Useful in both PvP and PvE, she’s exceptional for Golem hunts, as well as for dealing with enemy carries.
Any ability that can reduce buff durations, or remove buffs, are really strong for PvP.
It’s absolutely mandatory you build her with speed, though.
Like, at least 220 speed should serve you well at up to Master in Arena.
3. Flan
Attribute: Ice
Recommended Set: Speed/Immunity
How to get: 5* Covenant Summon
Skill 1: Communication Breakdown
Attacks the enemy with a gun, with a 50% chance to dispel one buff.
Skill 2: Data Monopoly
Encourages an ally, increasing Attack and Critical Hit Damage for 2 turns and increasing Combat Readiness by 30%.
Skill 3: Advantageous Deal
Burn Effect: Grants an extra turn.
Drives a hard bargain against all enemies, making them unhealable and decreasing Defense for 2 turns before decreasing Combat Readiness by 15%.
Flan isn’t great for dealing damage, instead you’ll want her as a premiere PvP support hero.
If she manages to cast her skill first, the debuffs provided from her skill 3 makes pretty much any fight an easy win.
Even her skill 1 is crazy, as a good dispel can completely negate an enemy hero’s strenght.
2. Seaside Bellona
Attribute: Ice
Recommended Set: Attack/Crit Chance
How to get: 5-star Limited Summon
Skill 1: Watch out
Attacks the enemy with a fan, with 60% chance to target the enemy for 2 turns.
Skill 2: I’m With My Friends
Shares 30% of damage suffered by the caster with the foremost ally.
When more than one damage sharing effect is granted, only the strongest effect is applied.
The caster gains 1 Focus when ally is attacked.
When an ally is attacked and the caster’s stacked Focus is 5, loses all Focus and activates You’re not Cute.

Skill 3: Haven’t I Warned You?
Burn Effect: Ignores effect resistance.
Attacks all enemies with a spray of water, with a 85% chance to make them unable to be buffed and unhealable for 2 turns.
Damage dealt increases with a critical hit.
No doubt you’ve seen Seaside Bellona constantly in PvP, as well as in your supporter options.
She just does so much, having built-in tankiness due to her damage sharing, dishing out debuffs and counter-attacking often.
A full attack & crit build will be enough for her to deal with most threats in PvP and PvE.
But getting her in your roster is the difficult part, as she’s rarely available as a limited summon.
Keep track of the Epic Seven subreddit to see which limited banners will be available.
1. Operator Sigret
Attribute: Dark
Recommended Set: Speed/Crit Chance
How to get: 5* Galaxy Summon
Skill 1: Incision
Attacks the enemy with a scythe, before healing the ally with the lowest Health.
Amount recovered is proportional to the caster’s Attack.
Skill 2: Annihilation
Batters the enemy with a scythe.
Grants an extra turn when the enemy is defeated.
Penetrates the target’s Defense by 50%, or by 100% when the target is granted a barrier.

Increases Attack of all allies for 2 turns.
When the target is granted a barrier, ignores Effect Resistance.
Damage dealt increases proportional to the caster’s Speed.
Operator Sigret is an insanely powerful hero for PvE, as well as being fairly strong in PvP.
We see so many annoying bosses in hunts, adventure, abyss & labyrinths, who love to spam barriers.
Particularly useful for Episode 2 10-10, you often see players being stuck on that stage but Operator Sigret will clear it quickly.
Getting her in a galaxy summon is no easy feat but if you do manage to get her, you now know to stick your best set on her.
