The Update 1 tier list (September 2026)
Update 1 landed in early September 2026 with four new classes — Spell Breaker, Cryomancer, Coyote and Dark Professor — plus balance changes, so the pre-update rankings below them shifted. The table follows Pro Game Guides' September 6 re-ranking of all 33 classes, the most current complete list we cross-checked against urgametips' 33-class breakdown and Maxbit's September 7 update.
| Tier | Classes |
|---|---|
| S | Anti Magic (Exotic/Physical), Coyote (Exotic/Magic), Dreadlord (Exotic/Physical), Founder (Exotic/Physical), Jetstream (Exotic/Physical), Shadow Vagrant (Exotic/Physical), Sinister Trigger (Exotic/Ranged), Spell Breaker (Exotic/Physical), Streamline (Celestial/Physical), Unrestricted (Celestial/Physical) |
| A | Archer (Legendary/Ranged), Artemis (Celestial/Ranged), Assassin (Epic/Physical), Awakened Devil EX (Exotic/Physical), Cryomancer (Exotic/Magic), Cursed King (Exotic/Physical), Dark Professor (Exotic/Magic), Forge Archon (Celestial/Ranged), Honored One (Exotic/Magic), Kage (Legendary/Physical), Shinobi (Legendary/Physical) |
| B | Azure Devil (Celestial/Physical), Bowman (Rare/Ranged), Cursed Child (Mythic/Physical), Demonbane (Celestial/Magic), Divergent (Mythic/Physical), Flame Bastion (Epic/Physical), Greatsword (Rare/Physical), Ronin (Rare/Physical), Vacio (Celestial/Magic) |
| C | Boxer (Epic/Physical), Wanderer (Mythic/Physical), Witch Gunner (Legendary/Ranged) |
Version note: GameRant's slightly older ranking places Awakened Devil EX, Honored One and Cursed King in S tier. That list predates the Update 1 rebalance; treat it as a launch-window baseline, not the current meta.
How classes are ranked
Pro Game Guides' stated criteria: damage and clear speed (how fast a class deletes mobs and burns bosses), survivability (HP, defenses, Dodge, Parry, i-frames), mobility and uptime, utility and crowd control, consistency across PvE content, and risk versus reward — high-damage classes drop if their best moves leave them rooted or exposed. RoboLibrary ranks against late-game content specifically: Boss Rush floors, Challenge Dungeon and Nightmare dungeons like Underworld Gate and Frostspire.
One rule from RoboLibrary worth repeating: roll rarity is not power tier. The spin rates (Rare 70%, Epic 20%, Legendary 8%, Mythic 2%, Celestial 0.5%) describe how often a class drops, not how well it fights. Witch Gunner (Legendary, 8%) holds S in RoboLibrary's release list but sits in C after Update 1 in PGG's ranking, while Boxer (Epic, 20%) outplaces Assassin (Epic, 20%) by two tiers in GameRant's list. You do not need a 0.5% Celestial roll to play a top-tier class — many S classes never come from spins at all.
S-tier highlights: why these ten classes win
- Anti Magic — Black Divider stuns for 3 seconds; Twelve-Fold Cleave gives protected sustained damage; multiple Parry windows make it a bruiser, not a glass cannon. Obtained from Boss Rush drops (floor 40+) or crafting.
- Dreadlord — 500 HP; Crimson Rush grants full invulnerability; Dread Vortex combines Parry frames with knockback immunity. Class item: 1% Underworld Glaive from Underworld Gate Nightmare.
- Sinister Trigger — Crossfire has three Dodge-protected charges; Showstopper and Rainstorm reset each other. Note: All Things How reported its 1.9x multiplier was a temporary bug due for an Update 1 fix — verify current numbers in-game.
- Spell Breaker — Thousand Cuts triples damage after a successful Parry; Tempest Splitter applies a 15% damage-taken debuff. One of the four Update 1 additions.
- Streamline — Flowing Dance is fully invulnerable; Surface Slash has a 15% chance to ready Water Wheel.
- Coyote — Wolf Pack fires homing projectiles with a 10-stud explosion radius; Feeding Frenzy gives seven hits of Parry protection. Obtained from El Hueco or the Coyote Bundle.
- Unrestricted — switches between Sword and Spear forms, changing three of its skills.
- Jetstream — every move carries Dodge or Parry protection. Comes from a special NPC rather than spins (GameRant).
- Founder — Somersault Crash has a 35% chance to reset Pillar of Heaven immediately.
- Shadow Vagrant — Flickering Step provides three repositioning charges with area damage and Dodge frames.
What to play while you grind for S tier
The realistic path: most Day 1 players roll a Rare or Epic. GameRant's advice is to play Boxer or Witch Gunner, bank Boss Rush tickets, and work toward Honored One — though note PGG's post-update ranking has since moved Honored One and Witch Gunner down, so the safe framing is: budget classes fund your climb, and the S tier mostly arrives through Boss Rush floor 40+ drops, Forge crafting (50 boss fragments) and special NPCs, not spins. Demonbane (Battle Pass) remains GameRant's beginner-friendly mid-game pick.

Frequently asked questions
- How many classes are in Dungeon Lootr?
- 33 after Update 1 (early September 2026), which added Spell Breaker, Cryomancer, Coyote and Dark Professor. The release-day list had 28 confirmed classes per RoboLibrary.
- What is the rarest class in Dungeon Lootr?
- By spin rarity, Celestial classes at 0.5% are the rarest rolls — Artemis and Azure Devil are examples. But rarity is not power: several S-tier classes are Exotic kits obtained from Boss Rush drops or crafting, not spins.
- Is Ronin a good class in Dungeon Lootr?
- Ronin is the tutorial class and sits in B tier in Pro Game Guides' Update 1 ranking — solid for early content, replaceable once Boss Rush or Celestial options open up.
- How often does the Dungeon Lootr tier list change?
- After every balance patch. Update 1 (early September 2026) re-shuffled enough placements that Pro Game Guides completely re-evaluated their list, and another rebalance was anticipated around September 5 per rblx.news.
- What are the best DPS classes in Dungeon Lootr?
- Maxbit names Sinister Trigger, Dark Professor and Spell Breaker as the top pure DPS picks in September 2026; Pro Game Guides' S tier adds Anti Magic, Dreadlord and Jetstream for damage-with-survivability profiles.
