Endless Ragnarok New DLC Characters Ranked — Beatrix, Eustace, Fraux, Fediel, Gallanza, Maglielle

The release of the Endless Ragnarok expansion on July 9, 2026, introduced six highly anticipated DLC characters to the Granblue Fantasy: Relink roster. With the addition of Beatrix, Eustace, Fraux, Fediel, Gallanza, and Maglielle, the total playable roster has expanded to 28 characters. Evaluating these units requires looking at their performance in the game's hardest endgame content, specifically Chaos-difficulty quests, high-depth runs in The Conflux solo mode, and their compatibility with the upgraded Weapon Transcendence system.

This Endless Ragnarok new characters tier list ranks all six DLC additions based on their damage output, utility, survivability, and ease of execution. While the overall game meta is still topped by Sandalphon in SS-tier, several of these new characters secure positions in the S and A tiers, shaking up the optimal party compositions for tackling bosses like Beelzebub and The World. Below is the definitive Endless Ragnarok DLC characters ranked analysis.

Endless Ragnarok DLC Character Tier List Overview

To establish a clear baseline, the table below provides a quick summary of where each new DLC character lands on the overall tier list, their elemental affinity, primary combat role, and their defining mechanical system.

This Endless Ragnarok new character ranking places Beatrix and Maglielle at the top due to their high damage ceilings and party-wide utility, respectively. The following sections break down each character's kit, optimal rotations, and build paths.

S-Tier: Beatrix and Maglielle

Characters in the S-Tier offer unparalleled performance in their respective roles. They possess high damage caps, strong invincibility frames (i-frames), and mechanics that scale exceptionally well with high-end Sigils like Warpath+ and War Elemental+.

Beatrix (S-Tier) — The Delta Clock DPS Powerhouse

The Endless Ragnarok Beatrix tier placement is firmly S-Tier due to her incredibly high damage ceiling. Beatrix operates on a high-risk, high-reward playstyle centered around her Delta Clock mechanic. The Delta Clock consists of three hands: Red (Attack), Blue (Defense), and Yellow (Speed). By performing precise timed inputs during her combo strings, players can lock these hands to grant massive self-buffs.

Beatrix's Core Rotation and Mechanics:

1. Low HP Scaling: Beatrix's unique support skill increases her attack power and critical damage as her HP drops. This makes her highly compatible with "Life on the Line" and "Enmity" Sigil setups.
2. Delta Clock Sync: Activating her skill Naydle locks the Delta Clock in the Red state, increasing her damage cap by 30% for 15 seconds.
3. Imminent Danger: When Beatrix's HP drops below 20%, she gains temporary invincibility (5 seconds) and resets the cooldown of her offensive skills.

To maximize her DPS in Chaos-difficulty quests, players should prioritize upgrading her Terminus weapon via Weapon Transcendence to unlock the Slot EX trait "Enmity Boost."

Maglielle (S-Tier) — The Ultimate Defensive Support

The Endless Ragnarok Maglielle tier placement is S-Tier because she provides unparalleled party safety without sacrificing DPS. Maglielle utilizes her Aureole system to summon up to six flying swords that attack automatically. While these swords deal continuous passive damage, Maglielle can cast powerful barrier and healing spells from a safe distance.

Maglielle's Key Utilities:

• Aegis Array: Deploys a physical barrier around all party members that blocks up to three incoming attacks or a maximum of 40,000 damage. This is crucial for surviving one-hit KO mechanics in the Beelzebub boss fight.
• Sword Dance: Commands all active flying swords to execute a coordinated strike, dealing high stun damage and instantly filling the Link Gauge by 10%.

A-Tier: Fediel, Eustace, and Fraux

A-Tier characters are highly viable in all endgame content but require specific team compositions or highly optimized Sigil setups to match the raw output of S-Tier units.

Fediel — Dark Field Control and Poison Damage

Fediel brings the power of the Six Dragons to the battlefield. She specializes in creating large, persistent field hazards that debuff enemies while shielding her allies.

• Dark Beckoning: Fediel creates a massive purple field on the ground. Enemies inside the field suffer from a stacking poison debuff that bypasses standard defense values, dealing fixed damage over time. Allies inside the field receive a continuous defense buff and minor health regeneration.
• Cursed Shield: Fediel consumes 10% of her own HP to grant the entire party a shield equal to 20% of her maximum HP. This shield stacks with Maglielle's barrier, allowing for highly defensive party configurations.

Eustace — Ranged Crowd Control and Stun Build-Up

Eustace is a versatile ranged attacker who excels at inflicting elemental status ailments and breaking boss parts. His primary mechanic involves charging his rifle shots to build Shed stacks.

1. Shed Stacks: Normal attacks and quick-shot combos build up to 5 Shed stacks.
2. Flanitz: Consumes all Shed stacks to fire a high-voltage laser that paralyzes the target for 4 seconds. This is one of the few hard crowd-control skills that works consistently on Chaos-difficulty bosses.
3. Slow Kill: Fires a volley of grenades that reduces the target's attack power and increases their stun gauge build-up by 25%.

Fraux — High-Speed Melee Combos and Pactbearer Synergy

Fraux is a fast-paced melee fighter who relies on her companion, The Devil (Primal Beast), to execute dual-strike combos. Her gameplay focuses on executing "Double Cast" skills by timing her abilities immediately after specific combo finishers.

• Crimson Finger: A rapid dash-punch that inflicts the "Burnt" status on enemies, causing them to take increased fire damage from all sources.
• Double Cast System: If Fraux uses Crimson Finger immediately after a heavy combo finisher, she executes a second, powered-up version of the skill without consuming an additional cooldown. This requires precise rhythm but yields extremely high burst damage.

Fraux Basic Combo:
[Light Attack] -> [Light Attack] -> [Heavy Attack (Finisher)] -> [Skill: Crimson Finger (Double Cast)]

B-Tier: Gallanza

Gallanza is a heavy-armored spear wielder who boasts the highest base defense and health pool among the DLC characters. However, his slow animations and lack of mobility keep him in the B-Tier for high-end content.

Gallanza's Strengths and Limitations

Gallanza excels at drawing enemy attention and absorbing damage that would otherwise kill squishier allies. His Spear-head Gauge fills as he takes damage or lands slow, heavy attacks. Once full, he can execute Giga-Impact, a devastating ground slam that deals massive area-of-effect damage.

• Golden Shield: Gallanza gains ironclad poise, preventing him from being flinched or knocked back by enemy attacks for 15 seconds.
• The Mobility Issue: In Chaos-difficulty quests, bosses move rapidly across the arena and deploy complex bullet-hell patterns. Gallanza's slow dodge recovery and long wind-ups make it difficult for him to maintain consistent uptime on fast bosses like Ragnalia. He is, however, excellent for clearing rooms in The Conflux solo mode where enemies are grouped together.

Gallanza Weapon Transcendence Progression

To make Gallanza viable in high-tier raids, upgrading his Terminus Weapon (Gae Bulg) through Weapon Transcendence is essential to boost his attack speed.

Endgame Builds: Sigils and Summons for DLC Characters

To unlock the full potential of these new characters in the Endless Ragnarok expansion, players must equip them with the correct S-tier Sigils and integrate them into the new Summon System.

Optimal Sigil Setups

The introduction of Warpath+ and War Elemental+ Sigils has shifted the build meta. For Beatrix and Fraux, maximizing damage cap via Alpha, Beta, or Gamma Sigils is critical.

• Beatrix Sigil Priority: Warpath+ (increases damage cap when low HP), Critical Hit Rate V+, Enmity V+, and War Elemental+.
• Maglielle Sigil Priority: Quick Cooldown V+, Cascade V+ (to keep Aegis Array active), and Character Specific Sigil (Aureole Mastery).
• Fediel Sigil Priority: Aegis V+, Stout Heart, and Poison Damage Boost (to scale Dark Beckoning's damage over time).

Summon System Integration

In Chaos-difficulty quests, players can equip up to four summons, with one being actively controllable (such as Lucilius or Rolan). When playing as Maglielle or Eustace, using summons that provide passive utility is highly recommended. For instance, equipping the Bahamut Versa summon provides a passive 10% increase to all skill damage caps, directly benefiting Beatrix's high-damage skill rotations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

How do I unlock the 6 new DLC characters in Endless Ragnarok?

To unlock the new DLC characters, you must first complete the Proud-difficulty quest "The Tale of Bahamut's Rage" to unlock the Epilogue. Once completed, you can purchase their character cards using Gold Dalia Badges from Siero's Knickknack Shop or obtain them as rare drops from high-level Fatebreaker quests.

Which DLC character is best for soloing The Conflux?

Maglielle is the best character for soloing The Conflux. Her flying swords allow her to deal damage while constantly dodging, and her Aegis Array barrier provides a safety net against the randomly generated elite monsters in the deeper depths of the gateway.

Does Beatrix require low HP to be effective?

While Beatrix can be played at full health, her damage output increases significantly when her HP is low due to her built-in Enmity scaling. To play her at the highest level, running Sigils that reward low-HP gameplay (like Life on the Line and Enmity V+) is highly recommended.

Can Eustace replace Eugen as the primary ranged DPS in a party?

Yes. While Eugen offers higher burst damage with his grenade setups, Eustace provides superior utility and crowd control thanks to his ability to consistently apply the Paralyze status effect using his Flanitz skill.
