Psychube Tier List Overview
When you start building your team in Reverse: 1999, you might wonder how to pick the right Psychube for each Arcanist. The Psychube Tier List gives you a clear guide. It shows which Psychubes work best and helps you avoid wasting resources on weaker choices. You can use this list to boost your team’s power and make smarter decisions.
Tier System
The Psychube Tier List sorts every Psychube into different tiers. Each tier reflects how well a Psychube performs in real battles. S Tier means top performance and huge impact. A Tier offers strong support and works well in most teams. B and C Tiers have more limited uses, while D Tier Psychubes rarely help much. You can quickly see which options stand out and which ones you might want to skip. Check out resources like the Prydwen guide for detailed stats.
Rarity and Updates
Rarity plays a big role in how effective a Psychube can be. Here’s what you should know:
-
5✦ and 6✦ Psychubes give much stronger effects than lower rarity ones.
-
You should try to equip higher rarity Psychubes whenever possible for the best results.
-
Lower rarity Psychubes usually do not match the benefits of rare ones, so they are less useful.
The game often gets new updates. Developers add new Psychubes or change how old ones work. The Psychube Tier List changes with these updates. You should check the list often to keep your team at its best.

His Bounden Duty: The go-to choice for most DPS Arcanists.

Tip: S Tier Psychubes often come from high rarity pulls. Save your resources for these if you want the biggest impact.
His Bounden Duty
His Bounden Duty stands out as the best Psychube for most DPS Arcanists. You want your main damage dealer to stay alive and keep attacking. This Psychube helps with both.
Here’s what makes His Bounden Duty so special:
|
Ability Description |
Effect |
|---|---|
|
HP Restoration |
Restores (wearer’s ATK x 60-120%) HP upon defeating an enemy. |
|
Sustain |
Provides good sustain for DPS/Carries that might lack self-healing. |
|
ATK Stat |
Offers an enormous ATK stat, making it potent for general use. |
When your Arcanist defeats an enemy, they heal for a big chunk of HP. This means your main attacker can keep fighting longer without needing extra support. The huge ATK boost also means every hit does more damage. You get both power and healing in one Psychube.
You should use His Bounden Duty on any Arcanist who deals most of your team’s damage. It works best on characters who attack often and finish off enemies. If your DPS struggles to survive, this Psychube can fix that problem.
The Psychube Tier List puts His Bounden Duty at the very top for a reason. It gives you a simple way to make your strongest Arcanist even better. Try it out and see how much easier tough battles become.
A Tier Psychubes
Strong Picks
You might not always get the top Psychubes, but A Tier Psychubes still give your Arcanists a solid boost. These picks work well for many teams and help you cover different roles. If you want reliable options, you should check out A Tier choices. They often come in both 6-star and 5-star rarity, so you have more chances to find them.
Here are some strong A Tier Psychubes you can use:

Yearning for an Audience: This Psychube helps with skill damage and fits well with Arcanists who use lots of skills.

You can mix and match these Psychubes with different Arcanists. They do not always give the biggest numbers, but they make your team more flexible.
Utility
A Tier Psychubes shine because they offer good utility for many characters. You can use them in lots of situations, and they do not lock you into one playstyle. Here’s what makes them useful:
-
They fit a variety of Arcanists, so you do not need to worry about matching exact skills.
-
You get solid effects, like extra healing, skill damage, or speed.
-
They are easier to get than S Tier Psychubes, so you can build your team faster.
You might notice that A Tier Psychubes are a bit weaker than the top picks. Sometimes, you miss out on the highest stats or special effects. Still, they help you fill gaps in your team and keep your Arcanists ready for battle.
If you follow the Psychube Tier List, you will see that A Tier options give you a safe choice when you cannot get the rarest Psychubes. Try them out and see how they fit your playstyle.

Niche Uses
B Tier Psychubes might not grab your attention at first, but they can surprise you in the right situation. You probably won’t use these every day, but sometimes they fit a specific need. Maybe you have an Arcanist with a unique skill set, or you want to try a different strategy. B Tier Psychubes give you options when your top picks don’t match your team.

|
Pros |
Cons |
|---|---|
|
Easy to get |
Lower stats than higher tiers |
|
Useful for niche strategies |
Limited impact in most battles |
|
Can fill gaps in your team |
Not ideal for main DPS or support |
You might like B Tier Psychubes because they are easier to collect. You can use them to test new ideas or support less common Arcanists. On the flip side, you won’t see huge boosts in damage or healing. These Psychubes usually don’t help much in tough fights.
If you want to try something different, B Tier Psychubes let you experiment. You can swap them in and out to see what works. Sometimes, you find a hidden gem that fits your playstyle. Most of the time, though, you’ll want to upgrade to higher tiers when you get the chance.
C Tier Psychubes
Limited Value
C Tier Psychubes usually do not give you much help in battle. You might notice that their effects feel weak or do not match what your Arcanists need. Most of the time, you will find better options in higher tiers. If you use a C Tier Psychube, you may see your team struggle in tough fights.
Here are some reasons why C Tier Psychubes have limited value:
-
Their stats are lower than most other Psychubes.
-
The effects often do not match the needs of popular Arcanists.
-
You might not see any big changes in your team’s performance.
Tip: If you want your team to grow stronger, try to replace C Tier Psychubes as soon as you can.
Let’s look at a few examples you might find in this tier:
|
Psychube Name |
Main Effect |
Why It’s C Tier |
|---|---|---|
|
The Forgotten Tune |
Small healing boost |
Too weak for most teams |

Situational Use
Sometimes, you might use a C Tier Psychube if you have no other choice. Maybe you just started playing, or you want to try something new. In these cases, a C Tier Psychube can fill an empty slot until you find something better.
You might also use these Psychubes for:
-
Testing out new Arcanists before you invest in them.
-
Filling a gap when you run out of higher-tier options.
-
Completing a set for a small bonus.
Remember, C Tier Psychubes work best as a temporary fix. Once you get stronger Psychubes, swap them out right away. Your team will thank you!
D Tier Psychubes
Weak Options
You probably want your Arcanists to feel powerful in every fight. D Tier Psychubes make that tough. These Psychubes sit at the bottom of the list because they barely help your team. You might notice that their effects seem almost invisible during battles. If you equip one, you may wonder if it does anything at all.
Let’s look at some of the weakest Psychubes you can find:
|
Psychube Name |
Tier |
Description |

Tip: If you find a D Tier Psychube in your inventory, save it for emergencies or just ignore it. Your team deserves better!
Rare Scenarios
Sometimes, you might have no choice but to use a D Tier Psychube. Maybe you just started playing, or you ran out of stronger options. In these rare cases, a D Tier Psychube can fill an empty slot. You might use one while you wait to pull something better.
Here are a few situations where you might use a D Tier Psychube:
-
You need to equip every Arcanist, but you lack higher-tier Psychubes.
-
You want to test how a new Arcanist works before investing resources.
-
You play in a challenge mode that limits your choices.
Most of the time, you’ll want to swap out D Tier Psychubes as soon as you get something stronger. Your team will perform much better with higher-tier options. Remember, D Tier Psychubes are only for emergencies or experiments. If you want to win tough battles, focus on upgrading to better Psychubes.
Don’t settle for weak gear. Your Arcanists can do so much more with the right Psychube!
