Path of Exile (PoE) 3.25 Tier List for every Ascendancy

Like most new Path of Exile leagues, PoE 3.25 Settlers of Kalguur includes changes for a lot of Ascendancies as well as Skill Gems which shakes up the meta as far as what Ascendancy Classes are better compared to others. We’ve put together a Path of Exile 3.25 Tier List for every Ascendancy Class including the new Warden ascendancy.

PoE 3.25 Tier List

The patch notes for Path of Exile 3.25 Settlers of Kalguur area are already public, allowing fans of the ARPG to start theory-crafting and building some new and interesting builds with all the Ascendancy changes headed into the new league. Based on the patch notes, we’ve put together a Tier List that highlights some of the builds each Ascendancy can benefit from headed into PoE 3.25.

Ascendancies we put in the S Tier have several strong builds for both mapping and boss killing and can scale all the way from the league start into the endgame. Those in the A Tier are still strong options that either don’t have all-encompassing capabilities like those in the S Tier. Ascendancies in the B Tier will work for most situations but simply don’t have enough build variety to fit into the S or A Tier, while those in the C Tier don’t have very many strong build options heading into the new league. Here is our Path of Exile 3.25 Tier List for every Ascendancy Class including some of their builds:
