Tier List

Protect the Border Tier Lists

Ranks for the booth you have, not the store you fear.

Tier List Hub

This hub collects every ranking on the wiki. Protect the Border is a live BETA, so a tier list is a snapshot, not a law. We rank for night holds and Endless depth, not for how loud a thumbnail looks.

Open the child pages when you already know the loop. If you do not, start at Getting Started. A Ray Gun will not fix a skipped face.

The three lists

Use them together. A high-tier rifle on a low-HP class still folds. A high-tier class with no ammo plan still folds. The gamepass value tool turns these ranks into a spend order.

How we rank

S — changes a four-officer night by itself
A — first pick for a role
B — honest workhorse
C — fun or situational
D — buy later, if ever

Criteria: booth control, night holding, ammo cost, whether the item stacks on a loadout, and whether you can earn it without Robux. Juggernaut is S as a body and D as a “just grind it” plan because you cannot grind it.

What a tier list will not do

It will not replace how to survive the night. It will not invent codes. It will not tell you that every 99 Robux rifle is a scam. FAMAS, TAR 21, and SPAS 12 are cheap because they are extra guns on top of a class, not because they are useless.

When The Evil Mafia adds another kit, we update the BETA changelog first, then move a row here. If two weapons feel identical in your hands, pick the one that matches your role on loadouts.

Reading order

  1. Classes tier list if you have not picked a locker kit
  2. Weapons tier list if you already have a class and want an extra gun
  3. Gamepass ranks if you are about to open Robux

Then go back to the booth. Ranks are a shopping list. The queue is the exam. A party that argues tiers during a raid is a party that already lost the angle.

This hub stays short on purpose. The arguments live on the child pages so each list can end with a different next click instead of the same outro.

Shift FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers officers ask after every shift.

Is this tier list official?

No. It is an unofficial snapshot for the live BETA. Store prices on Roblox win if they disagree.

Why is Juggernaut high if I cannot earn it?

Because 250 HP changes a night. The grind path is still pass-only. Both facts can be true.

Should I buy every S-tier pass?

No. Pick one role, then read the gamepass value page.

How often do ranks change?

After class or weapon drops. Check the BETA changelog, then this hub.
