E.G.O Tier Lists for Tuantu's Lobotomization Branches
Rankings for weapons, suits, gifts, and team builds — roughly one hundred forty-four pieces sorted for real progression.
How to use these tier lists
Tuantu’s Lobotomization Branches contains roughly one hundred forty-four E.G.O pieces split across weapons, suits, and gifts. Not every piece belongs on your first extraction list — some ALEPH weapons are vanity until Fortitude catches up; some ZAYIN gifts remain best-in-slot for Fear resist months later. This hub organizes community-tested rankings so you spend LOB upgrades (one hundred LOB = plus five stats) and farming days on gear that matches your role.
Tier lists here are progression-aware, not pure DPS beauty contests. A WAW weapon ranks lower if Justice gate blocks 80% of players. Read rankings alongside Extract E.G.O, Risk Levels, and LOB Planner.
Child tier pages
- Weapons Tier List — suppression DPS, range, parry utility
- Suits Tier List — Fortitude packages and resist profiles
- Gifts Tier List — stat sticks and Fear resist
- Builds Tier List — role templates for public lobbies
- Traits Tier List — employee traits after v0.9 nerfs, buffs, and Fast Learner rework
Each page cross-links siblings so tank players browse suits before weapons, farmers browse gifts before builds.
Risk tier context
E.G.O inherits Abnormality risk — ZAYIN through ALEPH. Higher risk gear generally means higher stats required on T panel:
| Risk | Typical role |
|---|---|
| ZAYIN/TETH | Learning, gift stat sticks |
| HE | Core facility days |
| WAW | Suppressions, Red Mist DPS |
| ALEPH | Prestige, min-max only |
Do not equip tier list S-rank WAW suits on day three — rankings assume you can equip them, not that you should immediately.
Stats and tier placement
Four stats govern work and equip gates:
- Fortitude — Instinct, tanking, dash mistakes forgiveness
- Prudence — Insight, Sanity-heavy days
- Temperance — Attachment, Fear-sensitive Abnormalities like Old Lady
- Justice — Repression, many weapon equip checks
Builds combine tier-listed pieces to cover gaps — see Builds for farmer vs suppressor splits.
Meta shifts and patches
Version 0.9.1 (Binah update) added Abnormalities (Dummy, Old Lady, Wishroot, TR0W3L, SledgeQueen, MoSB) with Justitia and Birch Tree E.G.O lines — rankings shift as extracts stabilize. Trait rebalance (Scaredy Cat, Paladin, Fast Learner +75%, Impoverished Unique PE 0%) affects build viability — read Traits Tier List. Track Patch v0.9.1, Trello, and Game Review for post-patch reranks.
Public E.G.O pool (L) lets you trial S-tier weapons before committing — etiquette in Keybinds.
How rankings are judged

Recommended progression path
- Farm ZAYIN/TETH gifts for Justice/Fortitude gaps.

- Add WAW burst weapon before Beat Red Mist.
- Optimize build row in Builds for team role.

Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers to the most common questions.
How many E.G.O pieces are ranked on this hub?
The game has roughly one hundred forty-four E.G.O pieces total. Tier lists highlight strongest weapons, suits, gifts, and practical builds rather than listing all one hundred forty-four individually.
Which tier list should I read first?
Read Suits if you die during work failures, Weapons if suppressions take too long, Gifts if you cannot equip gear due to stat gates, and Builds once you have a mixed team role.
Do tier lists update after patches?
Yes. Major updates like v0.9.1 Binah content can shift rankings when new E.G.O extracts and Abnormalities release. Check Updates and Trello for rerank notes.
Can I use tier lists without extracting gear?
On servers with L public E.G.O pool or owner /egopool, you can trial ranked gear before farming. Return borrowed items and still use tier lists as long-term targets.
