Summary
The elements inSolo Leveling:ARISEare simple and straightforward. The characters in the game can use one element when they deal elemental damage to enemies. However, players are required to keep tabs on these before entering a stage, as some elements might be effective in a certain stage while the others won’t be nearly as good.
Among the five elements available,Lightand Dark are the two best options, and they generally work consistently against monsters in most stages. The Light element works in the opposite way as the Dark element, dealing radiant damage to enemies and purifying them. Just like the other elements, there are a few Light-based characters in the game, and players might struggle when deciding which Light character they should roll for or build. This list helps in answering that byranking all the Light characters available inSolo Leveling:ARISEaccording to which ones are the best.
6Jo Kyuhwan
Decent Damage, But Zero Utility
Jo Kyuhwanis the last pick players should be going for in terms of Light characters. While Jo deals decent damage thanks to his skills and passive ability, the damage itself is nothing so significant that players would make a shift to him from other Light characters in the game.
Jo Kyuhwan provides no utility to the team either in any way. His attacks and skill scale with the user’s attack stat.His special skills apply burn to their targetfor 30 seconds, dealing damage over time. With his passive, Jo’s damage on those burned targets increases by 25% for 10 seconds, making him a valid choice for burn-focused teams. However, that marks the end of Jo Kyuhwan’s benefits, as there are better options out there.
5Yoo Jinho
The Best Beginner Character
Yoo Jinhois one of the SR characters in the game that is provided to players for free. For being a free SR character, Yoo Jinho is stacked with various utilities for his team, which makes him a solid option for players, especially beginners looking for a character to build initially and progress through the early-game.
This freebie breaker can shred enemy shields, and also provide healing and increased defense for their team. The rich son of the owner of Yoojin Constructions, Jinho is a great beginner’s choice for players.On top of healing and buffing defense, Jinho goes a step furtherin terms of team utility, and can stun enemies with his basic skill, My Turn!, for one second.
Though Jinho has all these skills, players can easily find characters who possess one of his skills and perform it better than he does, making Yoo Jinho just an average joe among other, better characters. Despite that, for all the abilities he provides as a free character, Yoo Jinho is still a solid choice for the fans of the game.
4Kim Chul
A Reliable Tank For The Team
Because of his ability to break enemy shields, and the power to immobilize enemies by stunning them for a few seconds, the Light Tank SR unitKim Chulis extremely powerful, and one of the best SR units for players inSolo Leveling:ARISE. Scaling with defense provides Kim Chul with a rock solid ability to endure enemy attacks. Apart from Rock Defense and Break Effect, Kim Chul also provides good buffs to his team which increase the team’s survivability on the battlefield. With his support skill, he can create a shield for his team, making their defense stronger.
He can also stun enemies for some timewith his basic and QTE skill to deal more damageto them without risking the teams’ life. Kim Chul goes the extra mile to provide increased defense for his allies with his basic attack. His Ultimate skill is stacked with various effects where he makes a zone in which team members take 30% reduced damage, and a shield is applied to the team equal to 25% of his defense. Even his passive ability creates more shields for the team, making Kim Chul an excellent tank overall.
3Baek Yoonho
Shatter Enemy Shields To Smithereens
WhileBaek Yoonhoremains one of the weakest S Rank Hunters in the manhwa, in the game his story is a bit different. Baek in the game is one of the best breakers available, and a great Light SSR unit. Baek provides break on everything he does on the battlefield, including his basic attacks. This specialty of his allows him to eat through enemy defenses in a matter of seconds.
Baek can also deal additional damage equal to 400% of his defensewith his support and ultimate skill, on top of the skill damage, while decreasing the target’s defense by 20%. Because Baek scales with defense, it is harder to kill him in combat as well. Despite being a Tank, Baek offers more than what is asked for from his role, making him one of the best Light characters available in the game.
2Min Byung-Gu
The Best Support In The Game
Though there are not many healers available in the game and, while characters from other classes can heal themselves or the team, none are of the same caliber asMin Byung Gu. This Light healer is an S-tier support inSolo Leveling:ARISEwho works well with almost everyone.
Disguise is an extremely strong effect provided by Min Byung Gu to his team that increases the damage taken by enemies, increasees his team’s recovery rate, and increases their critical damage and hit rate, all of which is extremely useful in any stage.
Because Min Byung Gu scales with maximum HP, it makes him easier to build. On top of that, he doesn’t require much time on the battlefield and does his job quickly, letting other characters shine. Min Byung Gu works in harmony with his team members and is a top-tier pick for any team with all the utility he provides.
1Cha Hae-In
A True Crit Monster
Cha Hae-In, in simpler words, is just insane, and has some out-of-this-world damage-dealing abilities. The crit monster of the game is also the best unit in the game, which also makes her the best Light character inSolo Leveling:ARISE.
On top of stacking crit and dealing damage, Cha Hae’s skills also render enemies unable to heal, making her a natural bane to monsters who can self-heal. Her passive gives her a high-chance to brand a target, which further increases her critical damage and hit rate against that target by 12%. Cha Hae can even stack crits with her basic skill thanks to The Dancer effect, which makes her into an absolute nightmare for the monsters facing her on the battlefield.
Players will also find Cha Hae is easy to build, and serves as the face of every team. With her ridiculously powerful skills,Cha Hae is a fan favorite characterwho can help players in the most brutal stages of the game.
