Source Audit
Tier lists live or die on trust. This page shows exactly how confident you should be in every kind of claim on this site — and what we still can't prove. Every character page has its own "Data Confidence" section with clickable source links.
What the badges mean
How the audit worked
We fetched the source pages and quote-checked every exact claim used on this site — every awakening effect text, skill multiplier, rating, and percentage. The highest-stakes pages (Daffodil's and Haniel's awakening calculations, and both tier-rating pages) were fetched and read directly. Anything that couldn't be traced to a primary source page was downgraded to Reported or TODO — it is never presented as fact.
Two things are always editorial, on every character: the 0–10 component scores and the final tier letters computed from them. The formula makes our reasoning transparent and checkable — it does not make it official.
Known source disputes Disputed
- Chiz: Prydwen's tier list (T0 at A3+ / T0.5 at A0) and her own Prydwen character page (T0.5 at A3+ / T0 at A6) disagree with each other. Both agree she climbs a tier with investment.
- Mint: Prydwen's R6 calc commentary on her page contains a copy-paste error from Daffodil's page. We quote the correct effect text.
- Baicang: his source page states his domain's base duration as 12s in the kit table but "from 10 to 16" in prose. We use the kit table.
- Daffodil: page header says SS rarity, review text says S rank; whether she is standard-pool or limited is unstated.
Master TODO — claims that still need proof TODO
These are open items we're tracking. Nothing on this list is presented as fact anywhere on the site.
