Mortal Shell II Shell Tier List (Early)
A cautious ladder before August 20 balance exists.
Provisional ladder (learning value, not DPS gospel)
- S (learn first): Harros for prologue fundamentals; Tiel for beta mobility expression
- A (high interest): Eredrim and Proxima based on reveal presence and fantasy clarity
- TBA: Remaining unnamed Shells—unranked on purpose
Why this ranking style
We rank clarity and availability, not fabricated damage charts. Tiel sits high because you can actually possess him in the Open Beta and test stamina-free combat. Harros sits high because every player needs his lessons. Eredrim and Proxima sit in high interest because official footage showcases them—not because we invented numbers.
How to use the list
Pick a Shell from the roster, learn Harden via the combat guide, then tweak gear in builds and loadouts. Hunt with how to find Shells.
Provisional ladder explained
S for learning value: Harros installs fundamentals; Tiel is actually possessable in the Open Beta so you can test stamina-free mobility. A for interest: Eredrim and Proxima earn placement from official reveal presence and clear fantasy. TBA: unnamed Shells stay unranked on purpose.
Anti-patterns we refuse
- Ranking leak names
- Publishing fake DPS charts
- Pretending cosmetics equal power
How to act on a rank
Pick a Shell from the roster, learn Harden via the combat guide, then tweak gear in builds and loadouts. Hunt with how to find Shells. Track ticks in the Shell checklist.
Expect reshuffles
Launch week and first patches will move letters. Treat this page as a dated snapshot for August 2026 pre-launch readers.
Rank hygiene
S-tier here means “learnable and testable now,” not “guaranteed endgame.” Keep Harros/Tiel flexible, park Eredrim/Proxima in A until kits are playable, and refuse to invent ranks for TBA Shells. After Open Beta sessions, rewrite one bullet based on deaths you can explain—then sync loadouts on Builds & loadouts. Cross-link Harros and Tiel so readers see why a body sits where it sits.
