Re:Rangers X Best Units Guide — Top DPS, Supports & Team Building (June 2026)
Complete guide to the best units in Re:Rangers X. Learn which units to summon for, how to build the optimal 4-unit team, elemental synergies, evolution priority, and which units are worth your Gems and Evolution Stones.
Last Updated: June 8, 2026
⚔️ Why Your Units Matter
Your units define everything in Re:Rangers X — your wave clear speed, boss kill potential, Infinite Mode depth, and farming efficiency. A single S-Tier unit with proper evolution and traits can carry you through wave 60+ while a full team of poorly-invested C-Tier units struggles at wave 20. This guide covers which units to target, how to build around them, elemental synergies, team compositions for every game mode, and the evolution priority that maximizes your account's power.
- ✔ Chrono Slayer and Void Empress are the two S-Tier Mythic units that define the endgame meta
- ✔ Blaze Archon is the best accessible A-Tier unit for new players — strong DPS, easy to use
- ✔ A 4-unit team needs: 1 Main DPS + 1 CC/Control + 1 Support + 1 Flex
- ✔ Elemental synergy matters — pairing complementary elements boosts team performance
- ✔ One hyper-evolved carry outperforms five evenly-leveled units every time
- ✔ Traits can double a unit's effectiveness — always fill trait slots on permanent units
📈 Unit Progression Roadmap
Fully building one S-Tier unit from Common to Mythic with optimal traits: 920 Evolution Stones + 92,000 Gems + 1 Awakening Core + ~200 Trait Rerolls
⭐ Top Units in Detail
Chrono Slayer (Time, S-Tier)
The undisputed best unit in the game. Highest base DPS (3,200 ATK at max) with a time-freeze ultimate that stops enemies for 4 seconds. Kill-based cooldown passive enables near-infinite ultimate chains at high wave density. Low base HP (8,500) is its only weakness.
- + Mythic summon banner (low rate)
- + Limited event banners (boosted rates)
💡 If you pull Chrono Slayer, build your entire account around it. Evolve to Mythic first. Equip Time Rewind trait for cooldown reset synergy. Pair with Frost Monarch (CC) and Tide Guardian (sustain). This unit alone can carry wave 100+.
Void Empress (Dark, S-Tier)
The premier AOE dealer. Ultimate creates a void rift dealing 2,800% ATK to all enemies on screen. Self-heal restores 15% HP per kill, eliminating the need for a dedicated healer. High base HP (12,000) makes her much tankier than Chrono Slayer.
- + Mythic summon banner (low rate)
- + Limited event banners (boosted rates)
💡 The best solo-carry unit for new players due to self-heal. Pair with Stone Colossus (tank) and Blaze Archon (secondary DPS for burn synergy). Equip Void Touch trait for 25% defense penetration. Excels in boss fights with single-target damage windows.
Blaze Archon (Fire, A-Tier)
Best non-Mythic DPS. Applies stacking burn DOTs (200% ATK/sec for 5s) that melt bosses and dense waves. Ultimate explodes all burning enemies for massive bonus damage. Accessible Legendary summon rate makes this the most realistic A-Tier target.
- + Legendary summon banner (decent rate)
- + Rare banner (low chance)
- + Event rewards
💡 The ideal first 'real' unit for new players. Accessible, strong, and easy to use. Evolve to Legendary first for Ultimate unlock. Pair with Frost Monarch to keep enemies grouped in burn radius. If you do not have Chrono Slayer or Void Empress, this is your main DPS.
Frost Monarch (Ice, A-Tier)
The premier crowd-control unit. Freezes enemies in place, creates defensive ice walls, and slows boss movement speed. Essential for pushing high waves where enemy density overwhelms pure DPS. Synergizes with every team composition.
- + Legendary summon banner
- + Rare banner (low chance)
- + Event shops
💡 The most versatile support unit. Evolve to Epic for Trait Slot 2, equip Cooldown- trait, and freeze enemies on cooldown. Works with every DPS — keeps enemies in Chrono Slayer's attack range, groups them for Void Empress AOE, and holds them in Blaze Archon's burn radius.
📋 Unit Building Strategy
- 1.
Redeem Codes & Summon on Mythic/Legendary Banners
Before anything else, redeem all active promo codes. ECLIPSE gives 100 Trait Rerolls. SACRIFICE gives 100,000 Gold. Then spend your Gems on the highest-tier banner available. Your first few summons determine your early game trajectory. If you get Chrono Slayer or Void Empress, stop summoning and invest everything in that unit.
- 2.
Build Your Core 4-Unit Team
Every team needs four roles filled: Main DPS (Chrono Slayer > Void Empress > Blaze Archon > Storm Ronin), Crowd Control (Frost Monarch > any freeze unit), Support/Healer (Tide Guardian > Aqua Squire), and Flex (secondary DPS like Shadow Kunoichi or tank like Stone Colossus). This composition handles all content through wave 60.
- 3.
Hyper-Evolve Your Main DPS
Do not spread evolution resources. Pick your best DPS unit and push it as high as possible. Rare (+50% stats) is your first milestone. Epic (+75% stats, Trait Slot 2) is your mid-game goal. Legendary (+100% stats, Ultimate unlock) is where the unit truly comes online. One Legendary DPS outperforms four Rare units.
- 4.
Fill Trait Slots on Permanent Units
Every evolution stage unlocks or expands trait capability. Slot 1 at base, Slot 2 at Epic, Slot 3 at Mythic. For your main DPS, target Time Rewind or God-Speed (Mythic). For supports, target Monarch or Cooldown- (Legendary/Epic). Never leave a trait slot empty — even a Rare trait is infinitely better than nothing.
- 5.
Add Elemental Synergy to Your Team
Elements matter. Chrono Slayer (Time) is neutral against everything — one reason it is S-Tier. Void Empress (Dark) is weak against Light bosses. Blaze Archon (Fire) melts Ice enemies. Frost Monarch (Ice) freezes Fire enemies. Build your team with complementary elements. Avoid stacking two units of the same element — diversify for coverage.
- 6.
Build Mode-Specific Teams
Different modes demand different compositions. Infinite Mode: DPS + CC + Support + Tank for sustained waves. Boss Raid: DPS + DPS + Support + Flex for maximum single-target damage. Speed Farming: Storm Ronin + Shadow Kunoichi for fast clear times. Having 6-8 built units lets you swap teams for each mode.
- 7.
Push for Mythic Evolution (Endgame)
The final grind. 500 Evolution Stones + 50,000 Gems + 1 Awakening Core. Only commit to Mythic evolution on a unit you are certain will be permanent — Chrono Slayer or Void Empress. The +150% stat boost and Trait Slot 3 unlock represent the largest single power spike in the game. This is your account's crowning achievement.
⭐ Unit Priority Tier List
⚠️ Common Unit Mistakes
Spending Resources on Starter Units
Wind Scout, Flame Recruit, and Aqua Squire are replaced within your first hour. Every Evolution Stone, Gem, or Trait Reroll spent on them is permanently lost. Wait until you pull at least an Epic-tier unit from a banner before investing anything. Even a B-Tier summoned unit outperforms a maxed-out starter.
Building a 'Balanced' Team Instead of a Hyper-Carry
New players instinctively want to level all units evenly. This is the wrong approach. One Legendary-evolved Chrono Slayer with Ultimate unlocked can solo-clear wave 60. Five Rare-evolved units cannot clear wave 30. Hyper-focus your main DPS. Your other units exist to support the carry, not to share the spotlight.
Summoning on Common or Rare Banners
Common and Rare summon banners have terrible drop rates for good units. Save every Gem for Mythic and Legendary banners. A single Mythic banner pull has a chance at Chrono Slayer or Void Empress — units that define your account. A Common banner pull will give you a C-Tier unit you could have gotten for free.
Ignoring Elemental Matchups
Elements are not cosmetic. Chrono Slayer (Time) is neutral — a major reason for its S-Tier ranking. Void Empress (Dark) takes bonus damage from Light enemies. Fire beats Ice, Ice beats Fire. Check boss elements before deploying and swap units accordingly. A wrong-element A-Tier unit performs worse than a correct-element B-Tier unit.
Leaving Trait Slots Empty
Trait Slots are free power. Even a Common trait provides some benefit. An empty slot provides zero. Use Trait Rerolls from codes (ECLIPSE gives 100) to fill every slot on every permanent unit. Upgrade traits over time — a full set of Epic traits on your team is a massive power spike that costs nothing but the rerolls you already have.
Using Awakening Cores on Non-S-Tier Units
Awakening Cores have a ~5% drop rate from Legendary+ Boss Raids. You will likely obtain only 1-2 per month. If you use one on Blaze Archon and then pull Chrono Slayer next week, you have wasted a month of farming. Only awaken units you are 100% certain will be permanent members of your roster. This means Chrono Slayer or Void Empress — nothing else.
