Paradox Resurrection Tier List [April 2026]

Paradox Resurrections for Hollows/Arrancar are among some of the best moveset options in the game since most of them are good. That said, some of them are movesets with simple strong moves but not a lot of combo potential so the best ones have both combos and the latter. Here's my Paradox Hollow Resurrection tier list and guide.

Paradox Hollow/Arrancar Resurrection Tier List

All of Paradox Resurrection movesets are pretty good. Each one has either strong base moves or great combo potential. The best Resurrections just have both and synergize well with the stat moves like Panther going well with Hakuda. This list mostly focuses on PVP but most of the movesets here are great for PVE too. Let's dive into the individual ranking reasons.

Other Paradox tier lists:

S-Tier Resurrection

S-Tier Resurrection Ranking Reasons

Panther
Rare
• Panther is so opressive with its Guard Breaks if you learn to combo it with Hakuda and play aggressively
• Also some of the best M1s in the game
• Each move is a GB and both Z and X are flexible starters and extenders with Z dealing massive damage
• C is the weakest move but it's still decent in duels and teamfights if you have some distance
• Shallow Dance even disables flashsteps for 3 seconds allowing you to be extremely aggressive

A-Tier Resurrection

A-Tier Resurrection Ranking Reasons

Gunners
Legendary
• There's so much damage potential here but it's not as straightforward as Panther
• The M1s are decent and X deals a ton of damage and GB but it has a hyper windup so it requires setup
• You can set it up with Wolves or dash after the counter but it's easy to miss/dodge against good players
• Still, the wolves and counter are great utility and your M1s are some of the better ones
• Overall quite strong but Panther is better

Bat
Legendary
• You have a lot of strong tools like the AOE GB pull with C that's good for setting up combos/CC and drains Rei which is OP
• X is great mobility and chasedown after a combo setting you up with an M1 boost if you hit
• Plus in Res form your M1s heal so it's a lot of sustain
• Z is a decent guardbreak for mixups but you need to aim it well manually
• Overall Bat is a ton of strong tools that don't create a lot of combos but are still quite strong as a moveset

B-Tier Resurrection

B-Tier Resurrection Ranking Reasons

Divinity
Legendary
• Very fun to play but slightly weaker than Bat and Gunner due to X's windup and anti-synergy with other moves
• Still, Z is really good for guardbreak, damage and chasedown
• C is also amazing for combos and if X was more combo-friendly Divinity would be much higher

Heaven
Common
• Heaven is another strong moveset like Bat that doesn't necessarily have the best combos but all the moves are pretty good
• Pop Z before going in and it's both a combo tool to keep hits going and a defensive tool to stagger enemies
• X is a great guardbreak move grab that can be followed up and C is just great for ranged pressure
• Overall, a solid moveset and the passive for a bit of extra damage and debuff immunity is a cherry on top

Paradox Overall Tier List

You can see here how Resurrections compare to Schrifts/Volts and Shikai/Bankai in Paradox. Generally speaking Resurrections are pretty good all-around even though they lack a diversified moveset like the other options. Panthera has some of the best M1s in the game even. Check out the other tier lists below for a deep-dive into other factions:
