Spirit ranking in Soul Land: Awakening World decides how fast you clear story bosses and how well you hold up in late-game fights. Each summonable spirit sits in a fixed tier based on its base stats and the utility of its skills, and your first pulls matter because free currency runs out quickly. The list below reflects the current spirit hierarchy in the mobile RPG.
Soul Land: Awakening World spirit tier list (June 2026)
S-tier spirits give the largest combat advantage and should get your first upgrades. A-tier units stay viable across most content but usually need more investment to reach the same ceiling. B-tier picks are entry-level and worth replacing as soon as a higher-rank summon is available.
| Rank | Spirits |
|---|---|
| S | Thunderex, Firedrake, Gold-Feathered Owl, Wraith Cat, White Tiger, Hepta Blade |
| A | Fiery Phoenix, Ice Phoenix, Windbell Bird, Fire Wolf, Swift, Nine-Tailed Fox, Gale Wolf, Deadly Arachnid, Ennea Pagoda |
| B | Silvan Grass, Supple Rabbit |
Top S-tier spirits and why they rank highest
Thunderex, Firedrake, and the Gold-Feathered Owl lead the meta thanks to high base damage and flexible skill sets that work across both clearing and boss fights. Wraith Cat, White Tiger, and Hepta Blade complete the S-tier, mixing strong offense with defensive value that holds up in end-game content.
If you can't land an S-tier unit, the Fiery Phoenix and Ice Phoenix are solid A-tier fallbacks that clear most content once leveled. Silvan Grass and Supple Rabbit are fine to start with, but swap them out the moment you can summon something higher.
How to unlock spirit summoning
Summoning is gated behind early progression, so you cannot pull spirits from the very start. Most new players reach the requirement in about an hour if they skip dialogue.
Step 1: Reach level 17. This is the account level that opens the spirit summoning feature.
Step 2: Complete the main quest titled 'Soul-Awakening Realm'. Finishing it registers you as a Spiritmaster and unlocks the summoning system.
Step 3: Save your currency for the summoning banner. The second part of the banner stays locked until you pull an SSR rarity spirit, so your early pulls need to count.
You'll know summoning is active when the banner becomes selectable from the main interface, and you can spend currency on a pull.
How to rank up your spirits
Leveling a spirit comes from absorbing the powers of defeated Spirimon, which directly raises your battle ability. Because free currency is limited early on, concentrate that growth on a single high-tier carry rather than spreading it thin across weaker units.
Step 1: Equip your highest-ranked spirit from the current tier list. A focused lineup clears main quests faster than several half-built spirits.
Step 2: Hunt Spirimon near your progression range and absorb their powers. Targets close to your level give useful upgrade returns without long, low-reward fights.
Step 3: Check your spirit loadout before any high-difficulty boss. Matching your spirit's skills to your character's abilities can swing the result of a fight.
