Snapshot for 30 August 2026 after Tidefire Elegy, Heatwave Guinevere, Soulstone 120, and Wraith Temple. New pickups will move this list.
| Tier | Holy Maiden / Unit | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| S | Guinevere, Morgause | Story cores; Scarlet Wake / Pure Jade still define PvE tanks and hybrid DPS. Heatwave Guinevere (CRIT Rate) is the live summer pickup |
| S | Merlin | Best support; Training Mode saint. Blooms Rippling swimsuit is a Heartbond Key, not a kit rewrite |
| A | Galahad | Free story DPS; carries port and mid-game chapters |
| A | Gabriel, Percival, Michael | Flame / Night Hunter / Thunderoar kits; Michael now permanent SR |
| A | Hayla, Xia, Ruyue | Permanent SR eight as of 7 July; 25 August named them Eternal Abyssal Bond / Gluttonous Dragon Heart / Fleeting Light. Pull if they appear, do not hard-pity off-banner |
| B | Executor | Mandatory starter; replace in the open-world team as soon as you can |
| B | Morgan le Fay | Sea of Lust control niche; fine in specific comps, not a universal carry |
