Best Exiled Perks Tier List [Fire Spirit Update]

Updated December 11, 2024

Lurker Perk Added

Perks can drastically affect the success of your Exiled runs so while cosmetics are important for style, you’ll want to save most of your Anons for Perks. That said, some are drastically better than others. I’ll guide you through the most optimal ones in this best Exiled perks tier list.

Complete Exiled Perks Tier List

I’ll be rating Exiled perks from best to least optimal, whereas S-Tier and A-Tier perks are usually must-haves. B-Tier perks will also be great options but more situational. Lastly, C-Tier perks are drastically less powerful than the others above, and D-Tier perks become useless once you play the game for a bit. If you’re looking for more Anons to buy perks, check out our Exiled codes to claim free gifts.

S Tier Exiled Perks

• Reincarnation: With the new buff so that it’s only 2 Slots, Reincarnation is without a doubt the best one that can always be useful. A free Revive means you’re saving 50 gold each run for something else, and you can pull off some plays in a dungeon and save your other friends even if you die. It’s especially great in solo runs where you can’t revive yourself with Revive books.
• Lurker: The new Lurker perk is the best perk against monsters in the game. You can easily hide from them by crouching, but note that it has a durability bar so you can’t spam it forever. Don’t use it against weaker monsters like Stone Golems and Bats and save them for Stalkers and Flesh Hunters.
• Spiritual Sense: This is an incredible perk as it can help you prepare for or avoid all monsters before you even fully see them. You can essentially open a room and spot a Stalker or a Flesh Eater before actually seeing or even aggroing them. It works through doors, too, if they’re close enough. This allows you to prepare a plan with your party or even just leave that room alone.
• Fueling Specialist: This is a must-have perk in any Exiled group since more fuel from items means fewer items spent on fuel and more in the shop. If you’re playing at a large party, just one player essentially needs to have this perk, and only they should manage fuel for a successful run.

A Tier Exiled Perks

• Barter: While not as powerful as S-Tier perks, Barter is easily the most cost-effective perk for the 1-slot requirement, and that 20% discount on all items from the Merchant means a lot in each run. Practically, this is a 15-gold discount on all Magic Wood and Crystals for Fuel or a 10-gold discount on each Revive book. And trust me, that adds up fast.
• Golden Tongue: Golden Tongue goes perfectly with Barter as a 2-slot perk, but even by itself, it’s great for the same reason as Barter. You get 50% more gold from each item you sell, which adds up quickly and can score you additional Revives, Health Potions, and Magic Wood/Crystals easily over time.

B Tier Exiled Perks

• Deft Hands: Being able to get two items from the Lucky Bag is pretty good; it’s just that you can’t choose the items you want, so this will usually mean you just get an extra potion or some extra Fuel/Gold at the beginning. Useful but not that powerful in the long run.
• Supply and Demand: Being able to reroll Merchant items twice isn’t always useful, but if you’re desperately searching for a Revive or a Health Potion, this perk can save a run.
• Witch’s Boon: Potions having an increased effect isn’t a huge power-up, but it’s great when you can give your Invisibility Potion some extra time to scout more of the dungeon.

C Tier Exiled Perks

• Hero: The Hero perk is useless in solo and duo runs. That said if two players die in the same dungeon from traps or monsters, being able to bring them both back for revives is quite useful. The reason this perk is in C-Tier is that you can just as easily go back for the other player; it just takes more time, but you don’t lose anything by taking more time in Exiled.
• Adrenaline Rush: Activating a speed boost after getting hit is nice, but you’re looking to not get hit at all, so you can go the entire run without using this perk. The same goes for the Revive perk mind you, but that one is so immensely useful when you need it that it’s just universally powerful.
• Endurance Training: Increasing your max sprint distance is always useful, but nothing that you must have. I find this is a great filler perk when you need a 1-Slot if you’re not taking Barter for some reason.
• Iron Skin: Great for beginners, but otherwise, you don’t get much mileage from it.

D Tier Exiled Perks

• Value Inspection: Being able to see each item’s sell value is incredible if you’re starting out your Exiled experience. But keep in mind that you’ll memorize sell values for items quickly and then this perk becomes useless.
• Fuel Inspection: It’s the same reasoning as Value Inspection but this perk lets you see the fuel values of all items.
• Wagon Sense: There is not much to say here; just don’t take it. If the wagon is moving, you’ll probably be on it unless you’re playing with random who want to troll you.
