Anime Vanguards: Wrathful Assault DPS Units Rankings
Carry rankings and investment notes after the Wrath's End update.
This page ranks damage-focused units in Anime Vanguards for the Wrathful Assault meta (September 2026). Support enablers like Apathetic Savior (Door) and Wrath (Assault) appear on Support Units even when their buffs create enormous team DPS. Parent context lives on the Tier List Hub.
S-tier DPS carries
Super Vogito
Super Vogito sits at the top of most raw DPS conversations. High fused-style damage, strong wave presence, and boss relevance keep it as a priority trait sink. Target Ethereal for multi-placement patterns or Monarch if you specifically run low-copy Pride Sin strategies in the Wrath Event. Pair with supports from the Door / Holy Deceiver / Divalo cluster when you own them.
Rogita (Super 4)
Rogita (Super 4) remains a premier Dragon Sphere carry. Classic Return style availability windows have put Rogita and Divalo back into gem banner conversations for anniversary periods, which means newer accounts can still chase the kit. Invest memoria and traits as if the unit will stay for months — it usually does. Ethereal is the safe mythic; Deadeye if your build leans crit.
Rebel Fighter (Gauntlet)
Rebel Fighter rewards Worldlines climbers who reached Floor 50 style objectives. It brings competitive clear energy and belongs in the top DPS set when fully built. If you already own it, do not bench it just because Wrath launched — Wrath does not replace raw Gauntlet damage; it enables Evils teams.
High A-tier damage dealers
The Falcon
The Falcon is a vertical damage and transformation story, amplified further if you buy Iron Helmet from the Wrath Event shop for 1,000 Wrath Coins. That familiar unlocks Sacrificed stacking and Unholy Transformation tools. Falcon owners should prioritize event coins toward Iron Helmet before random shop filler — see Wrath Event.
Holy Deceiver (Dark) — hybrid note
Holy Deceiver straddles DPS and utility. On this page we flag it as a damage-capable Dark star that also belongs in support discussions. If your board lacks a true carry, Deceiver can shoulder damage while still offering deceptive utility. Check both role pages before you assign your only Ethereal pity.
Iscanur (Pride) and Evils DPS partners
Iscanur (Pride) is an Evils-tagged Fire powerhouse with hour-stack scaling and burn patterns. Beside Wrath (Assault), Iscanur becomes a centerpiece of Evils Teams. Rank Iscanur as premium DPS when you are committed to Evils; rank it slightly lower if you refuse to build the tag.
Strong situational DPS
- Star Crusader (Platinum) — prior Battlepass Exclusive with time-stop flavored Holy single-target tools; still excellent when you already built it.
- History’s Strongest — name recognition and event NPC presence; still a credible damage piece when geared.
- Dragon Sphere package units (Student / Teacher / Boohan lines depending on your box) — enable fused team DPS even when a single unit is not top of chart.
- Classic banner returns — when Rogita / Divalo rotate through gem banners, evaluate your box before spending the entire Gem Farming bank.
Trait priority for DPS
| Goal | Trait |
|---|---|
| Default multi-place carry | Ethereal |
| One-copy Pride / hypercarry | Monarch |
| Crit kit | Deadeye |
| Lane coverage | Solar |
| Holding trait | Blitz |
| Farm slot (not DPS) | Fortune |
Full odds and pity are on Traits and Rerolls. Redeem Codes before pity sessions.
Placement and economy reminders
DPS rankings assume you still field a farm. A top-five carry with zero economy loses to an A-tier carry that upgrades on time. Gluttony Sin doubles farm payouts — practice that pattern before Hard Wrath Event ego runs.
Also respect map constraints. Summon Path controls and no-placement zones change where your DPS circle actually lands. Preview placements; do not trust muscle memory from old maps.
What not to overrate
- New shiny cosmetics without kit upgrades
- Units that only shine with unavailable whale supports
- Off-element trophies that break Evils diversity planning if you are Wrath-focused
- Spending Monarch pity on a unit the Tier List Hub already marked as transitional
Building a DPS-first team
- Pick one S-tier or high A-tier carry you own.
- Add Fortune farm.
- Add one support from Support Units.
- Fill elements intentionally if Wrath is coming.
- Push story and Warfront until gems and XP feel stable.
- Only then spread Trait Rerolls to a second carry.
Beginners should finish Getting Started before mirroring whale DPS ladders. Unlock planners for Wrath stay on How to Get Wrath (Assault).

DPS wins highlight reels. Supports and economy win the stages that make those reels possible. Rank carries hard, but upgrade the board in the order that actually clears wave fifteen.
Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers for Wrathful Assault and Anime Vanguards.

Super Vogito and Rogita (Super 4) lead most raw DPS discussions after Wrath's End, with Rebel Fighter and The Falcon close behind depending on builds and familiars.

Wrath is ranked primarily as an Evils support buffer on the Support Units page, even though the team damage it enables can exceed a solo carry.
What familiar should DPS players buy from the Wrath shop?
Buy the familiar that matches a DPS unit you already play — for example Iron Helmet for The Falcon — before generic currency dumps.
