Brave Frontier – Dark Unit Base Stat Comparisons by Evolution Tier

Comparisons of the strongest dark units in each evolution tier.
This article is over 10 years old and may contain outdated information

Time to compare between everyone’s favorite element in Brave Frontier: dark! Dark unit stat comparisons inbound, choo choo!

Recommended Videos

The tables below are split into evolution tiers. For instance, the first three charts are dedicated to first evolution (1-evo in the headers) units, the second chunk of three is dedicated to second evolution (2-evo), and the last three are dedicated to third evolution (3-evo) units.

Only ATK, DEF, and HP are compared here. REC is not because I don’t feel it’s as high priority as the other three. Only the top 13 in each category are listed, sans 4-evos as there are only five at the time of writing.

The game’s one Dark 5-evo, Unholy Magress, has been excluded until more 5-evo units are added to the game. Grahdens has also been excluded because he is a 5-star with no evolution.

The stats listed here are only the base stats. This means these are a unit’s stats at level 1. Growth is determined by unit type. The five types are as follows:

  • Anima – HP growth is higher, REC growth is lower
  • Breaker – ATK growth is higher, DEF growth is lower
  • Guardian – DEF growth is higher, ATK growth is lower
  • Lord – Stats grow evenly
  • Oracle – REC growth is higher, HP growth is lower

Lastly, if you’re looking for similar charts of other elements, take a look at my Brave Frontier base stat chart list and I’ve worked up a comparison of Dark 5-star units for those interested. All stat information has been taken from the wiki.

Here are some things to keep in mind about the Leader Skill columns before you scroll below:

  • HC is Heart Crystal
  • BC is Burst Crystal
  • All when before a +% or -% means all elements
  • Plus (+) signs can be read as “up” or “boost”
  • BB always means “Brave Burst gauge” even when not specifically mentioned
