- Odie
- Vala

- Carolina
- Eironn

Best Support
The Support units in AFK Journey play a vital role in the survival of your team, as their character kit revolves around healing and adding buffs and debuffs.
Among the list of Support class units in the game, we recommend having these:
- Hewynn
- Reinier
- Smokey & Meerky
- Koko
- Rowan

Best Tanks
Similar to any other RPG, the Tank class role is somewhat similar to the Support class—improving the survival of your team by tanking all the damage on themselves.
The same is the case with Tanks in AFK Journey. They are meant to be used in the vanguard to ensure your DPS is able to deal damage while the Support heals them and provides buffs to allies and debuffs to enemies.
With that said, here are the best Tank class units in AFK Journey:
- Thoran (best)
- Abtandra
- Granny Dahnie
