Sword Hunter Tier List Hub
Rank blades and pets by progression, cost, and offline value — not invented damage sheets.
This hub is the front door for Sword Hunter rankings. Use it when you have cash in the base and need a honest answer: which blade is worth the next merge, and which pet is worth the next egg or catch. The lists are community snapshots built from what Blade Evolution Tycoon shows in the live Roblox experience, the official thumbnails, and the public description. They are not a datamined DPS table. If a creator posts a spreadsheet of hidden multipliers, treat it as rumor until the game itself displays the number.
Sword Hunter launched on July 31, 2026 as a free incremental simulator. The loop is simple and it never really changes: hunt monsters, turn loot into cash, merge swords at your base, hatch or catch pets, and let equipped blades keep gathering offline loot. Rankings only matter if they help that loop. A rainbow blade that you cannot merge yet is a poster, not a plan. A slime that actually walks with you today is more useful than a phoenix you have never seen.
How we rank
Three criteria, in this order:
- Progression power. Does this sword or pet let you farm the next pack of monsters, open the purple portal, or stand near the giant red gorilla boss without bouncing off?
- Catch or hatch cost. Eggs, luck, and rare world prompts have a price. A 0.01% phoenix is S-tier on paper and F-tier for your first hour. Cost is part of the grade.
- Offline value. Swords collect loot while you are away. Pets that stay equipped keep the farm moving when you close Roblox. A pretty catch that you never leave on is a trophy, not a rank.
We do not grade PvP. Servers hold 12 hunters and friends can team up, but this wiki does not invent a player-versus-player meta. We also do not invent drop chances except the public 0.01% phoenix callout.
Two lists, two jobs
Open the sword rankings when you are about to spend cash at the merge table. That page walks the visible ladder: stick, starter steel, gem cave sword, rainbow LV.999, and Rank 999 blue, plus the new sword tier called out on August 31, 2026. Open the pet rankings when you have an egg, a luck boost, or a Catch prompt on a wolf, fox, slime, gorilla, bird, or phoenix.
If you are still on the stick, skip both lists and run the early-game hunter plan first. Rankings without a merge are just screenshots.
How to read S through C
- S — chase this when the rest of your loadout already works. Phoenix sits here because of the 0.01% rate and the payoff if it lands.
- A — strong buys for hunters who can afford the egg or the merge. Rainbow variants live here.
- B — honest workhorses. Wolf and fox catches belong here: easy to find, easy to keep on during farms.
- C — fine starters. Slime is C because it is common and it still helps a brand-new hunter more than an empty pet slot.
Grades move when the live game changes. After the New Area Adventure on Wednesday, September 2, 2026, volcano islands and the giant boss can shuffle what “progression power” means. We will update the child pages when the official description or in-world art shows a new rung. We will not invent a patch ID to make the list look official.
What to do with a ranking
Use a rank as a spending filter, not a flex. Before you dump cash into a cave blade, confirm you already redeemed working codes and that you know how to redeem the next drop. Before you spam eggs, read how to hatch pets. Before you walk through the portal, check the mid-game hunter plan. The merge planner is there if you want a quiet place to think about cash order without a noisy server.
Friends on the same 12-player server can share a farm, but they cannot merge for you. Your base is still your bottleneck. Rank the tool you can actually equip tonight.
Honesty rules for this wiki
No fake DPS. No fake percentages beyond the phoenix 0.01% line. No YouTube IDs on these pages. No Trello board, because none is public. If a screenshot in the game shows Rank 999 rainbow or blue steel, we name that sword as an endgame marker and we stop there. If you need the live event calendar, use the updates hub and the patch notes page, which only repeat what the Roblox description already says: a new sword tier, promised optimizations, and codes listed in the game text.
When your merge rank and your pet line agree, leave this hub. The lists are a compass. The hunt is still E to attack or catch, R to auto-attack, and F to select the blade you just built. Rank with the loadout on your back, not with a thumbnail you cannot buy yet.
Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers to the most common Sword Hunter questions.
Are these Sword Hunter tiers official?
No. Blade Evolution Tycoon has not published a ranked DPS sheet. These grades are a fan snapshot from live art, public description text, and progression cost. Confirm anything that sounds like a hidden stat in the game itself.
Should I chase S-tier before I merge?
No. Merge the stick into starter steel first, then read the sword rankings. An S-tier phoenix does not replace a blade you can actually swing. Follow the early-game hunter plan until cash has a real merge target.
Do you publish damage numbers?
No. This wiki does not invent DPS, crit, or hidden multipliers. If the live UI shows a number, we can quote it later. Until then, ranks mean progression power, catch or hatch cost, and offline loot value.
Where is the pet 0.01% rate from?
The phoenix is the public 0.01% callout hunters talk about in the live game. Other pet rates are not listed here because we will not guess them. See the pet rankings for catch versus hatch notes.
Will the New Area Adventure change the list?
It can. The September 2, 2026 event adds a purple-portal route into volcano islands and a giant boss. When that content changes which blade or pet actually farms the next area, the child pages will move grades. Watch the New Area Adventure notes.
Is there a Trello for these ranks?
No public Trello exists for Sword Hunter. Use the links hub, the Discord invite, and the Roblox description instead of a fake board.
