+1 Ride Pets to Fight Halloween Race Tier List

For a mix of training, combat, and resource gathering, two-star Ghoul and Pharaoh are our S-tier picks. Ghoul helps with growth and staying in fights; Pharaoh supports resource collection and upgrade funding. Brawler and Cowboy earn A tier as focused specialists, while Ninja and Farmer sit in B tier for narrower benefits tied to dodge chance or stage milestones.

These tiers weigh the usefulness, strength, and activation conditions of each ability. Ghoul's placement uses its two-star configuration; the other placements use the ability configurations described below. Roll rarity does not determine the ranking: a Common Brawler is still a useful training choice.

Brawler for AFK dummy training

Equip Brawler when your next activity is an AFK training session. Its Gym Rat configuration gives 6% faster AFK dummy training and +10% Power, making it a focused training specialist worth keeping alongside a combat or loot race. Choose your facility using the training and dummy unlock guide.

Pharaoh for Boss Shell rewards

Choose Pharaoh when you can beat the Boss and want better resource returns. In this configuration, Tomb Treasure has a 20% chance to roll Boss Shells twice and keep the better result, alongside +16% Luck and +30% Coins. The ability improves the reward selection when it activates; it does not award both rolls.

Cowboy for recurring Boss critical hits

Choose Cowboy when you want an ability that directly benefits attacks. Quick Draw makes the first hit a critical hit labeled ×300% and triggers every 10 seconds against Bosses. This configuration also adds +12% Speed. Its recurring trigger makes Cowboy especially useful when a Boss fight lasts long enough to use Quick Draw repeatedly.

Two-star Ghoul for growth and survival

Two-star Ghoul combines +22.5% Power and +17.5% Pet HP. Undying Hunger grants a six-second berserk state after falling; get a kill during that window to restore HP to 30%. That recovery opportunity is most useful when you can finish an enemy before the window ends.

Ghoul vs. Pharaoh: favor Ghoul when Power growth or survival is holding you back. Favor Pharaoh when you are already clearing fights and want resource benefits. Power bonuses support growth; they should not be read as an equal percentage increase to final attack damage. Brawler remains the focused AFK training pick, while Cowboy supplies the recurring Boss critical-hit effect.

• Keep Ninja for defensive support and Crit. Its Shadow Step configuration gives an 8% chance to dodge an incoming attack, plus +2% Crit. This can help during combat, but keep moving out of red attack warnings instead of relying on a dodge to trigger.
• Keep Farmer for stage-clearing rewards. Its Harvest configuration grants one extra Shell on every 10th stage clear, alongside +10% Coins. It suits trips where you are steadily clearing stages and collecting resources. Pharaoh is the stronger recommendation for Boss Shell rewards because Tomb Treasure specifically improves the Boss reward roll.

Both can serve a useful purpose while you work toward another race. Their B-tier placement reflects narrower benefits across the full progression loop.

Keep a race that already serves your goal, and use another unlocked slot to save a specialist. A useful pairing is Brawler for training with Pharaoh for resource runs, or Brawler with two-star Ghoul for growth and survival. Equip the race you want to use before starting that activity; saving an alternative does not equip it.

Rerolling an occupied slot replaces the race in that slot, so select a different slot if you want to keep your current choice. Follow the race reroll, equipment, and storage guide for the full process. Use the race catalog to compare individual roll chances, abilities, and pity guarantees before spending rolls.

If you need more room to move during fights, pair your race choice with a pet that can slow, stun, or knock enemies back. See the pet crowd-control tier list for those choices.
