Canopus is incredibly useful in the early game, primarily due to his high base stats. With his damage and a 2-handed crossbow, Canopus can become a great Vartan due to his wind element.

He falls off a bit during the end game but a solid recommendation is to turn him into a Buccaneer.

9. Lanselot

Lanselot serves a role similar to Ozma as an Intimidator. The key difference is that Lanselot sacrifices some offensive capabilities for extra survivability.

Depending on what your team needs, use Ozma in more offensive combos, and Lanselot on defensive ones. Of course, you can also use both of them, since 2 Intimidate users are never a bad idea.

8. Lindl

Lindl can be an asset to your team due to his healing capabilities when used as a Lobber Fusilier.

His role is to keep the party alive and healthy by using items. What makes Lindl ideal for this role is his low Recovery Time, since this allows him to act sooner than other units.

7. Gildas

Gildas is an ideal White Knight, similar to Ravness. Together with Ozma and Ravness, Gildas will serve as your frontline in most encounters.

Other than his high HP and defensive stats, Gildas helps by providing Velocity Shift, a key buff for turning fights in your favor.

6. Jeunan

Beasts such as Griffons and Cockatrices are especially dangerous in the game and Jeunan equipped with the Dragoon class is one of the best ways to deal with them.

With skills such as Beastslayer, Dragonslayer, and Beastbane, Jeunan helps the entire team take down some of the most challenging beasts.

5. Catiua

Catiua is also a core character in Tactics Ogre Reborn and she’s essential to most parties as she combines the role of offensive and supportive magic.

She can easily take down undead units, offer solid damage overall, and ensure your allies stay alive and have appropriate buffs. Especially with the Princess class, Catiua is a force to be reckoned with.

4. Ravness

Ravness is an essential member of each team, primarily due to the White Knight class. Her main asset is providing Velocity Shift to allies via Boon of Swiftness.

On top of that, she has decent survivability to hold the frontlines while also being able to dish out solid damage.

3. Ozma

Ozma combines offensive and defensive stats while constantly applying pressure on the enemy. Her strength comes out primarily when given the Knight Commander class with her bread and butter skill being Intimidate.

Equip her with a close-combat build involving a sword and no ranged spells to ensure she’s always nearby to trigger Intimidate and that’s all you’ll need.

2. Iuria

Iuria is an ideal choice for the Songstress class and makes for one of the strongest healers and support units in Tactics Ogre Reborn.

She starts the fight by using Escalating Sanat and buffing all your frontline units with Renewal, which combined with the tanky attributes of someone like Ozma or Denam will ensure they’ll never reach low HP.

1. Denam

Denam is one of the main characters in the game while also having the potential to become one of the strongest.

Specifically, Denam has access to the Lord class, which allows him to utilize almost all skills and weapons in the game.

In addition, as long as players give him one of his best classes during the early game, and build him accordingly, he will a valuable asset to any team.
