Best Waifus To Build First In Dragon Traveler (From A Gameplay Perspective)
For pure gameplay, the best waifus to build first in Dragon Traveler are the ones that hard‑carry story, AFK, bosses, and PvP with minimal babysitting. The names below show up consistently at the top of multiple early tier lists and recommended team comps.
Top waifus to prioritise
These are the women you build first if you own them, before spreading resources across the wider harem.
S‑tier waifus (must‑build if owned)
Waifu
Class / role
Why she’s top‑tier for gameplay
Ifrit
Marksman DPS
One of the strongest AoE carries at launch; her projectile ultimate and high crit let her erase AFK waves and Guild fights while self‑healing enough to stay alive.
Athena
Guard tank
Widely regarded as the best tank: AoE taunt, huge shields, life‑link and lifesteal counters make her core to almost every serious story, boss, and PvP team.
Scheherazade
Priest healer
Premier healer with strong sustain and buffs; essential for long boss fights, towers, and Guild content, and the default “best waifu support” to build.
Poseidon
Mage control / AoE
High burst plus knockback, Chill, and immunity windows; stellar at deleting clumped stages and disrupting enemy teams in Arena and Guild War.
Huginn & Muninn
Marksman DPS
Bouncing basics, high crit and lifesteal turn her into a top AFK farmer and long‑fight DPS, especially in Sanctum and sustained comps.
All of these waifus are rated in the top tier (T0/T0.5) across launch‑window lists and are mainstays of meta story, AFK, and PvP line‑ups.
High‑priority “next wave” waifus
Waifu
Class / role
Gameplay value
Titania
Priest
Best replacement if you lack Scheherazade; great heals plus dispel, making her a must‑build SR waifu support.
Gulveig
Mage
Independent burst mage with heal‑block that fits into almost any comp and shines in bosses with sustain.
Marilith
Warrior bruiser
Self‑healing bruiser who spikes damage at low HP, ideal for bossing and PvP alongside Athena.
Oberon
Guard
Free SR tank waifu‑adjacent unit; high dodge and shielding make her an excellent early frontline until Athena is built.
These waifus are often rated T0.5–T1 and are recommended as early investments once your absolute top picks are online.
Best waifus by game mode
Different modes emphasise different strengths, but several waifus are “omni‑meta” and worth building regardless of focus.
Mix of control, burst, and sustain that dominates current PvP meta cores.
Even if you care mainly about waifu collecting, building the women listed above first gives you the strongest possible account foundation with minimal regrets.
