I really keep being surprised by the amount of gacha games available for us to play in our devices. Now, we get to create an immense fleet full of ships ranging from battleships, aircraft carriers, destroyers, and even submarines. And if we are talking about choosing from a lot of ships, well, we definitely get to talk about a tier list. Here is the Azur Lane tier list.
Azur Lane Tier List
Contrary to what you might think about this game, you will not get to control characters. You will get to collect a fleet of different ships that will make you all powerful in the eyes of your enemies. There are a total of seven factions to choose from, so it is very important to choose your ships wisely. You will be able to equip weapons, armor, items, and everything in between to be the very best fleet captain of all. Here is the Azur Lane tier list for you.
- BB/BC/BBV/BM: battleship class ships.
- CV/CVL: aircraft carrier ships.
- SS/SSV: submarine ships.
- DD/DDG: destroyer ships.
- CB/CA: large and heavy cruiser ships.
- CL: light cruiser ships.
