The "should I use SP coins on this" tier list

This a general list that will not tell you which unit is better for specific Eternal Road stages, even with the filter on. Just know that a unit ranked B and under would probably be a waste of SP coins as you would not use it in any scenario, unless it is your favourite Mobile Suit.

Updates:
31 Aug 25:
- Added Elpeo Ple's Qubeley Mk-II.
- Added the filter for Eternal Road Expert 10.
- Rank adjustment: removed the criteria for pilot affinity (for instance, the Elpeo Ple benefits from all ZZ units) as it rarely made much sense. Consequently, the ranking for several units has dropped.
22 Aug 25:
- Added Command Gundam and Musha Gundam.
- Added the Fierce Enemy Assault tag to the units that retroactively got it with this update. Consequently, the ranking for some units has increased.
21 Aug 25:
- Eternal Road filter is functional.
20 Aug 25:
- Added a filter for Eternal Road series. Only works for tag-based restrictions, not for the series-based restrictions. Will be updated soon.
14 Aug 25:
- Rank adjustment: added a new criteria: how many debuffs can a support unit use at a range of 4 or more. For instance, Wing Zero and Zeong have two, this allows them to apply two different debuffs from a safe distance which can be an advantage and should rank them slightly higher. Consequently, the ranking for some supports has increased or dropped.
- Rank adjustment: changed the points awarded for max debuff for supports, from (Rank:Points) 4:0,5:1,6:2 to 4:-1,5:0,6:1. Consequently, the ranking for most supports has dropped.
- Rank adjustment: removed points previously awarded to the GN Field and Positron Reflector unit abilities, as they are virtually useless at high level. Consequently, the ranking for several SEED and 00 units has dropped.
13 Aug 25:
- Added the possibility to filter by tag. Might require further testing.
12 Aug 25:
- Featured on Fortexfiend's Youtube channel, how cool is that?
- Added disclaimer
- Added this page's updates list
9 Aug 25:
- Added all units from the Lacroan event
- Official launch of this page
How it works:
Most attributes of a MS give or take away points, and the total of points is converted into a ranking.
Having 3 or 4 tags give 1 point. 5/6: 2 points. 7/8: 3 points. 9 and more: 4 points.
If the MS can be deployed in space and in the atmosphere: 1 point.
If the MS has perfect movement in both space and skies: 1 point.
If not, if the MS has at least perfect movement underwater: 1 (as it fills a niche).
If the MS can transform: 1 point.
If the MS has a MAP weapon: 1 point.
If the MS has passive abilities (for itself or the pilot): 1 point. If they are great for the role (ex: damage reduction for defender, more ATK for attacker, etc): 2 points instead. Two good abilities for the role: 3 points instead.
If the MS has a linked pilot: -1 point. If, however, it is a very good pilot: 1 point instead.
