Megabonk build tier list by run goal

Direct answer: this Megabonk build tier list ranks routes by job, not by hype. Use the route that matches the next run: safer clear, 300K kills, high-score testing, or a character-specific build.

Evidence boundary: patch 1.0.69 is the current official context. Public build samples cited by this site remain historical 1.0.65 observed data.

Megabonk build tier list by goal

Editorial tier	Build route	Best use	Evidence limit
Primary high-kill route	Fox build and 300K kills guide	300K kills and high-kill testing	Historical 1.0.65 observations plus community reports, not a guarantee
Score or metric audit route	Dice build and high-score guide	Score, kills, or clear tests where the metric is written first	Needs stronger proof before calling it score-optimal
Safer clear route	Beginner build and Amog build	Stable clears, movement practice, and control recovery	Editorial adaptation, not leaderboard proof
Focused damage branch	Bandit build	Runs failing because focused damage is late or inconsistent	Editorial adaptation; swap slots by function

How to read this Megabonk build tier list

If a route is ranked high for kills, that does not make it best for a first clear. If a route is safe for learning, that does not make it slow or weak; it means the build is judged by a different job. Start from the route whose failure mode matches your last run, then use the related build page for weapons, tomes, item priorities, and reset rules.

When to ignore the tier

Ignore the tier if your unlock state, offers, or movement comfort make the recommended route unstable. A coherent substitute beats a perfect-looking template that never reaches its payoff. Return to the build hub when you need the shorter decision table.
