Single-target DPS heroes are a necessity in Epic Seven, mostly for PvE purposes.
Conquering hunts, chapters, altars & labyrinths require the defeat of bosses who care not for aoe attacks.
You can have 20 incredible aoe heroes who can deal tons of damage to groups of enemies, but you’ll fall to DPS check single bosses.
So it’s highly recommended to get at least 2 great single-target DPS heroes, as they can shatter the health bars of these bosses.
There’s a few dozen decent heroes who fit this bill, but fully upgrading a hero is a tedious job in Epic Seven.
Following this list, you’ll know exactly what heroes to look out for, and to upgrade.
It’ll save you countless hours of grinding, as well as a ton of resources!
10. Sez
Attribute: Ice
Class: Thief
Star Sign: Scorpio
Recommended Set: Crit Damage/Crit Chance
Skill 1
Penetrates the enemy with dark energy, making the enemy unhealable for 1 turn. Damage dealt increases proportional to the amount of enemy’s lost Health.
Skill 2 (Passive)
When the enemy’s Health is 50% or less after attacking with Dark Shadow, activates Encroach. Encroach can only be activated once per turn. Encroach (Acquire 1 Soul): Releases dark power to attack all enemies, with a 50% chance to make them unhealable for 1 turn.
Skill 3
Burn Effect: Increases damage dealt. (-20 Souls)
Inflicts lethal damage to the enemy, dealing damage proportional to the enemy’s lost Health. If the enemy dies, inflicts additional damage to all enemies proportional to the caster’s Attack.
Sez’s ability to increase his damage based on an enemy’s lost health is capped against bosses (of course, otherwise it’d be OP). But he stills hits like a truck when he gets those critical hits.
Once a boss’s health is reduced to 50%, Sez really starts to ramp up damage, so it’s just a case of keeping him alive until the required amount of damage has been done.
9. Ravi
Attribute: Fire
Class: Warrior
Star Sign: Capricorn
Recommended Set: Lifesteal/Crit Chance
Skill 1
Burn Effect: Greatly increases amount of damage dealt. Does not trigger a Dual Attack. (-20 Souls)
Attacks with a double-edged axe, with a 35% chance to stun for 1 turn, before recovering Health proportional to damage dealt.
Skill 2
Increases the caster’s Attack by 15% and Effectiveness by 10% when they attack or are attacked. Effect can only stack up to 5 times. When attacked, increases Combat Readiness by 8%, and gains 5 Fighting Spirit.
Skill 3
Brutally attacks all enemies, with a 75% chance to stun for 1 turn and decrease their Combat Readiness to 0%.
Your premiere self-healing DPS hero, Ravi is beloved by Epic Seven players for her reliability and fortitude.
She may lack defensive attributes with the buffs to combat readiness, she’ll always be attacking for high damage, and constantly healing.
She does require you to earn 25 fighting spirit before you can use her 3rd skill.
8. Surin
Attribute: Fire
Class: Thief
Star Sign: Gemini
Recommended Set: Attack/Hit Chance
Skill 1
Attacks with a chain axe. If the enemy is bleeding, causes two bleeding effects for 2 turns.
Skill 2
Burn Effect: Grants an extra turn (-20 Souls)
Batters the enemy with a chain axe and inflicts two to four bleeding effects for 2 turns, decreasing Attack for 1 turn.
Skill 3
Triggers all the bleeding effects currently inflicted on the enemy. Damage dealt increases proportional to the number of bleeding effects inflicted on the enemy, and debuff duration is extended by 1 turn. Additionally, the caster’s Combat Readiness increases by 15% per every bleeding effect inflicted on the enemy. Effect can only be applied up to 5 times.
My personal favorite, ever since she demolished my team in Arena.
Surin is all about causing bleeding, amplifying her damage the more her target is bleeding.
As such, she works well with other heroes who cause or manipulate the bleeding effect, like Jena or Sigrit (further on the list).
7. Martial Artist Ken
Attribute: Dark
Class: Warrior
Star Sign: Capricorn
Recommended Set: Lifesteal/Crit Chance
Skill 1
Batters the enemy with a 50% chance to decrease Attack for 1 turn.
Skill 2 (Passive)
Increases Effect Resistance by 30%. Has a 30% chance to counterattack when attacked, with a 100% chance to counterattack with Dragon Flame after suffering a critical hit.
Dragon Flame (Acquire 1 Soul): Makes a critical hit, dealing damage proportional to the caster’s lost Health. When The Coming of Asura is available, increases Combat Readiness by 25%. This attack receives effects that are applied to the basic skill.

Skill 3
Burn Effect: Increases damage dealt. (-10 Souls)
Attacks all enemies with a powerful ground pound with a 55% chance to decrease Defense for 2 turns and increase Attack of the caster for 2 turns. A successful attack always results in a critical hit.
Can be quite overwhelming but this hero is very simple, as his 2nd skill is passive.
Martial Artist Ken is a bruiser who can deal tons of damage with counter-attacks, which is why lifesteal is so important to him.
He’ll keep gaining effect resistant & combat readiness while reducing enemy attack and defense stats.
If you invest a lot of resources into him, he’ll happily solo entire battles for you!
6. Challenger Dominiel
Attribute: Dark
Class: Mage
Star Sign: Scorpio
Recommended Set: Crit Damage/Immunity
Skill 1
Burn Effect: Increase damage dealt. (-20 Souls)
Attacks with electricity. A critical hit will increase damage dealt.
Skill 2 (Passive)
When an ally makes a critical hit, grants stackable increased Attack to the caster according to the number of critical hits made and increases Combat Readiness by 10% per critical hit. This stackable increased Attack is dispelled after attacking.
Skill 3
Releases powerful electricity, increasing Critical Hit Rate of all allies for 3 turns, and Combat Readiness by 10%. The caster is also granted an extra turn.
Plenty of buffs to give Dom and her friends a ton of damage bonuses, she works brilliantly with other single-target DPS heroes.
Especially effective with heroes who counter-attack, or double-attack, to get plenty of buffs via her passive.
5. Karin
Attribute: Ice
Class: Thief
Star Sign: Leo
Recommended Set: Crit Damage/Crit Chance
Skill 1
Strikes the enemy with a sword. A critical hit will decrease cooldown for 1 turn.
Skill 2
Slashes the enemy. A critical hit will decrease Defense for 1 turn and grant an extra turn.
Skill 3
Burn Effect: Increases damage dealt (-10 Souls)
Cuts the enemy with lightning speed. A critical hit will increase damage.
Regarded as one of the easiest heroes to acquire, upgrade and use.
Karin has a simple kit, you should aim to get full crit gear to obtain that sweet 100% critical hit chance, and she’ll be a monster in combat.
4. Luna
Attribute: Ice
Class: Warrior
Star Sign: Libra
Recommended Set: Crit Chance/Crit Damage
Skill 1
Stabs the target a random number of times. Skill cooldown decreases by 1-3 turns and damage dealt increases according to the number of attacks.
Skill 2 (Passive)
Increases Attack and Critical Hit Chance by 20% if the caster’s Health is more than 50%, or increases Defense and decreases chance of suffering a critical hit by 20% if the caster’s Health is less than 50%.
Skill 3
Burn Effect: Increases damage dealt (-10 Souls)
Soars into the air and hits the enemy with a spear, with an 80% chance to decrease Defense for 2 turns. Attacks with a more powerful element.
Luna is great for ripping through a single target, as her passive grants a ton of additional attack and crit chance.
You can easily reach 100% crit chance with her, if you invest some time into obtaining some good gear.
Her third ability should be used quickly, for that defense decrease, as any follow-up attacks will be even more devastating.
3. Kiris
Attribute: Earth
Class: Ranger
Star Sign: Capricorn
Recommended Set: Speed/Hit Chance
Skill 1
Fires a poisoned arrow at the enemy, with a 35% chance to inflict poison for 2 turns.
Skill 2
Burn Effect: Ignores effect resistance. (-20 Souls)
Fires a corrosive volley to all enemies, extending any debuff duration by 1 turn.
Skill 3
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.
Poison is regarded as being very strong in Epic Seven, even more so when you have a character like Kiris who can continually stack it.
Her skills might be simple but they’re all about inflicting poison on one enemy and withering them down over a few turns.
2. Sigret
Attribute: Ice
Class: Warrior
Star Sign: Taurus
Recommended Set: Speed/Crit Chance
Skill 1
Attacks with a scythe, with a 40% chance each of inflicting two bleeding effects for 2 turns.

Batters the enemy with a scythe, with a 85% chance each to inflict bleed and make them unhealable for 2 turns. When the enemy’s Health is less than 50%, activates Sever as an extra with a 100% chance of inflicting bleed.
Skill 3
Inflicts lethal damage to the enemy, piercing their weak point, penetrating Defense by 30%, with an additional 10% for each debuff inflicted on the enemy. Inflicts extinction when the enemy is defeated.
Most players recommend newer players have a few friends on their list who have a Sigrit as their supporter.
A level 50 Sigrit with decent gear can carry you through entire chapters, she’s also one of the best PvP heroes in the game.
Some teams like to have revive in their strategy, Sigrit’s extinction debuff prevents any killed enemy hero from reviving.
1. Commander Lorina
Attribute: Dark
Class: Warrior
Star Sign: Leo
Recommended Set: Crit Damage/Crit Chance
Skill 1
Knocks the enemy into the air with a spear, increasing Combat Readiness of the caster by 20%.
Skill 2
Increases Attack 10% each time the caster attacks an enemy. Effect can only stack up to 5 times.
Skill 3
Burn Effect: Grants an extra turn. (-20 Souls)
Pierces the enemy with a spear, decreasing Combat Readiness by 15%. Damage dealt increases proportional to the amount of the enemy’s lost Health.
Widely considered to be the go-to recommended single-target DPS hero in Epic Seven, Commander Lorina is remarkably easy to get.
First, you need a normal Lorina. She’s freely available to all players in the Connections section.
Then you’ll need to complete her specialty change quest-line, then she’ll transform into Commander Lorina.
Well, it’s quite a grind, as you’ll need to defeat 10,000 monsters in Adventure mode, and complete 50 urgent missions.
