Haniel Build & Tier Rating

Haniel is a B Tier A-Rank Psyche/Solid Esper whose main job is buff / dmg boost. Free pre-registration reward. Strong Psyche buffer that boosts team damage. Excellent value for new accounts. They work best as a budget or bridge option while you save materials for stronger long-term carries.

The rating is based on practical account value rather than raw damage alone: role compression, team fit, element coverage, and how expensive the character is to make useful. For Haniel, the standout points are free from pre-registration, team-wide damage boost, psyche resonance, easy to slot into any team, low investment requirement. Their free-to-play access makes that value easier to recommend for newer accounts.

In combat, Haniel plays as a buff option with Psyche element coverage and Solid arc typing. Psyche/Solid-based buffs that increase team damage. Skill applies ATK and Crit DMG buff to the team. Ultimate further amplifies buffed allies' damage. Passive increases buff duration. This makes them easiest to justify when your team already supports that damage type or needs the utility attached to their kit.

Recommended teammates are Aurelia, Hathor and Fadia. If you do not own those exact characters, look for replacements that preserve the same jobs: a stable damage source, a way to amplify Psyche output, and enough survival or control to keep rotations consistent. For ready-made examples, compare the best NTE teams.

Start with Energy Recharge / ATK% / ATK%. Energy Recharge / ATK% / ATK%. Focus on ER for buff uptime, then ATK for stronger buffs. 4-piece Solid set. Do not over-farm perfect substats before your core team has usable gear; a stable baseline build usually gives more account progress than chasing one ideal piece.

Prioritize Haniel when your account needs a buff or when Psyche coverage unlocks a better team shell. Based on vote trends, community sentiment is fairly balanced. Use that as a signal to test the character against your own roster instead of treating any tier placement as permanent.
