All Noita Perks Ranked

Noita SS-Tier Perks

I’ve decided to break down all perks in Noita into tiers between SS and F, with the following reasoning behind each choice:

  • SS-tier perks are the best in the game, and I think everyone should have them.
  • S-tier perks are excellent choices for almost any type of build.
  • A-tier perks are very good and will serve you well in a wide variety of situations.
  • B-tier perks may have a limited capacity but can generally help you throughout the walkthrough.
  • C-tier perks are extremely situational, so choose them after careful consideration.
  • D-tier perks are very weak and have a high RNG factor.
  • E-tier perks may be useful once or twice in the entire game, so they could be easily ignored.
  • F-tier perks are actually harmful to players, so I don’t recommend picking them up at all.
