The 'should I use SP chips on this Mobile Suit?' list - click here for SSP conversion list - click here for pilots
This a general list that will not tell you which unit is better for specific Eternal Road stages, even with the filter on. Note that an Expert stage's terrain type is NOT taken into account for the ranking.
Help requested: if you know how to datamine pilots and units stats, please get in touch with me on Reddit. I am currently adding all data by hand which takes a very long time, and will not be able to keep eternalsp.net up to date when the next SSP update comes.

30 Apr 26:
- Reworked the tier list to a suggestion list, to match the original intent. Believe me or not, I never wanted to make a tier list as I thought it would be inaccurate and divisive. And well, it was. This is just a small change, basically S and S+ are No Regrets, A and A+ are Good Options, and so on. You can still see a unit's original rank if you click it.
- Added the Dynames and Lockon Stratos rewards.
- Added all of the new Narrative units and pilots.
- Added the Gromlin from Fierce Enemy Assault.
- Added the filter for Eternal Road Expert 25 Narrative.

- Added gift unit Exia Trans-Am and pilot Michael.
- Updated all units that gained the tags Tenacious and Shippujinrai.

- Added the filter for Eternal Road Expert 23 Gundam 00.
20 Mar 26:
- Added gift pilot Gawman Nobile.
13 Mar 26:
- Added all of the new 08th MS Team units.
- Added all of the new 08th MS Team pilots.
- Changed the scoring system to reward 2 points for units that can both go into space and on land. This makes up for the new "Land" tag giving points for units that cannot go to space.
- Updated all units that gained the tags AGE System, Rearm, or Land.
- Added gift pilot Emeralda Zubin. If you're wondering why she ranks E, that's because there aren't any good MS for her to pilot (the Mafty tag is very limited). And she has rubbish stats as well.
6 Mar 26:
- Added gift pilot Julia Suga.
1 Mar 26:
- Added all of the new AGE units.
- Added all of the new AGE pilots.

13 Feb 26:
- Added gift pilot Gigi Andalucia.
- Reverted mobile suit portraits to the old type (but clean versions). If you prefer the zoomed-in ones, please send me a message on Reddit; at https://www.reddit.com/u/PhiphyL. I will consider using cookies to keep your preferred type of portrait.
12 Feb 26:
- Added all of the new Astray X units.

31 Jan 26:
- Added the G-Falcon DX from First Enemy Assault.
- Added all of the new Gundam X units.

16 Jan 26:
- The SSP ranking calculations are now final (for now!), and all units to date have been added.
- Added all of the new MS IGLOO units.
- Added all of the new MS IGLOO pilots.
6 Jan 26:
- Fixed a bug that prevented scrolling the popup when you clicked a unit.
- Fixed a bug with the Eternal Road Expert filters for SSP conversion.
4 Jan 26:
- The SSP page can now be accessed (links at the top of the page). The ranking calculation is temporary and to be taken with a grain of salt. I expect to have added all units by the end of January, at which point I will refine the calculation.
- SSP-converted attackers take the best weapon's bonus (ex: more damage at higher HP) into account. All bonuses are equal except for one: for now, the one giving more damage at lower HP does not give any points. This will be rolled out to SP-converted attackers later on.
- Added all new units from WfM and Destiny.
- Added all new pilots from WfM and Destiny.
- Added the filter for Eternal Road Expert 17 Witch from Mercury.
- Added the filter for Eternal Road Expert 18 SEED Destiny.
- Added the new SSR Aerial.
- Added the pink Zaku from Fierce Enemy Assault.
- Added the Tank tag to all units that received it. Consequently, some units have gone up in rank.
24 Dec 25:
- Added the reward Yzak Joule and Duel Gundam Assault Shroud.
- Added all of the new 0080 units.
- Added all of the new 0080 pilots.
- Changed the points earned for having a MAP weapon. It now depends on the ammo count: one point for MAP weapons with only 1 use (unchanged for them), 2 points if the MAP weapon has 2 or more uses. Consequently, the ranking for some units has increased.
- Changed the points for Def MS that have 4 Movement. Used to be 0 point, it is now -1 point. Consequently, the ranking for some units has decreased.
23 Dec 25:
- Added the Preemptive Strike criteria as worthy of 1 point. It does not affect rankings, as Xi previously had that point as a rare debuff.
30 Nov 25:
- Added the filter for Eternal Road Expert 16 Tough As Nails.
- Added all of the new Hathaway units.
- Added all of the new Hathaway pilots.
- Added the event Hyaku Shiki and Quattro Bajeena.
- Added the new Full Armor Gundam Mk III.
11 Nov 25:
- Lowered the threshold for highest-tier weapon power from 6000 to 5800. Consequently, the ranking for several units has gone up.
- Added the filter for Eternal Road Expert 15 One-Shot Killer.
- Added all of the new Blue Destiny units.
- Added all of the new Blue Destiny pilots.
10 Nov 25:
- Added a filter for units with MAP weapons.
6 Nov 25:
- Added recommendations. Click on a pilot to see the recommended MS, and on an MS to see the recommended pilots. It is by no means perfect and does not use damage calculations. It is based on tags and ranged/melee/awaken specialty: to appear in a pilot's recommendations, a Mobile Suit must have all the required tags that a pilot needs. It also needs to make use of a pilot's strengths, with an exeption for defensive units.
5 Nov 25:
- Added the new Gundam Barbatos Adapt.
- Added a new criteria: if the Mobile Suit has a rare debuff, it gets 1 point. The new Barbatos has a debuff that reduces the range of the target. This is unique at the moment, warranting the extra point.
31 Oct 25:
- Changed the way pilots are ranked. It now mostly depends on their recommended units.
- Added the filter for Eternal Road Expert 14 IBO.
- Added all of the new IBO dev units.
- Added all of the new units (non-UR) from the IBO banner.
- Added all of the new IBO pilots.
- Added the event Gundam Hajiroboshi and its pilot.
27 Oct 25:
- Added the pilots SP list. It is just a draft and not to be taken too seriously.
- Slightly changed the layout at the bottom of the page.
- Added the ULT dev units, but the checkbox is disabled by default as you cannot SP them so they do not really fit the list. But it is still interesting to see where they rank.
16 Oct 25:
- Added Wing Gundam EW.
- Added the new tags for all units. MANUALLY CHECKED AND UPDATED 747 UNITS. IT WAS SO BORING AND TIME CONSUMING YOU CAN'T IMAGINE.
- Updated the number of tags required for points - everything needs one more tag than before, due to most units getting at least one new tag. Consequently, the ranking for several units has changed (those with 0, 2 or 3 new tags).
10 Oct 25:
- Added all of the new Stardust Memory dev units.
- Added a new criteria: extra life. So far it's just for the GP03 (Dendrobium).
1 Oct 25:
- Added all of the Unicorn dev units.
- Added all of the new G Gundam dev units.
- Added all of the new units (non-UR) from the half-anniversary banner.
30 Sep 25:
- Added Shining Gundam (Super Mode) and Byarlant Custom 02.
- Added the filters for Eternal Road Expert 12 and 13.
19 Sep 25:
- Added Gyan Custom.
16 Sep 25:
- Added all units from the IBO Gekko event.
- Added the filter for Eternal Road Expert 11.
5 Sep 25:
- Added Titania.
31 Aug 25:
- Added Elpeo Ple's Qubeley Mk-II.
- Added the filter for Eternal Road Expert 10.
- Rank adjustment: removed the criteria for pilot affinity (for instance, the Elpeo Ple benefits from all ZZ units) as it rarely made much sense. Consequently, the ranking for several units has dropped.
22 Aug 25:
- Added Command Gundam and Musha Gundam.
- Added the Fierce Enemy Assault tag to the units that retroactively got it with this update. Consequently, the ranking for some units has increased.
21 Aug 25:
- Eternal Road filter is functional.
20 Aug 25:
- Added a filter for Eternal Road series. Only works for tag-based restrictions, not for the series-based restrictions. Will be updated soon.
14 Aug 25:
- Rank adjustment: added a new criteria: how many debuffs can a support unit use at a range of 4 or more. For instance, Wing Zero and Zeong have two, this allows them to apply two different debuffs from a safe distance which can be an advantage and should rank them slightly higher. Consequently, the ranking for some supports has increased or dropped.
- Rank adjustment: changed the points awarded for max debuff for supports, from (Rank:Points) 4:0,5:1,6:2 to 4:-1,5:0,6:1. Consequently, the ranking for most supports has dropped.
- Rank adjustment: removed points previously awarded to the GN Field and Positron Reflector unit abilities, as they are virtually useless at high level. Consequently, the ranking for several SEED and 00 units has dropped.
13 Aug 25:
- Added the possibility to filter by tag. Might require further testing.
12 Aug 25:
- Featured on Fortexfiend's Youtube channel, how cool is that?
- Added disclaimer
- Added this page's updates list
9 Aug 25:
- Added all units from the Lacroan event
- Official launch of this page
How does ranking work? Click here to toggle the boring stuff.
How it works:
Most attributes of a MS give or take away points, and the total of points is converted into a ranking.
Having 4 or 5 tags give 1 point. 6/7: 2 points. 8/9: 3 points. 10 and more: 4 points.
If the MS can be deployed in space and in the atmosphere: 2 points.
If the MS has perfect movement in both space and skies: 1 point.
If not, if the MS has at least perfect movement underwater: 1 (as it fills a niche).
If the MS can transform: 1 point.
If the MS has a MAP weapon, points depend on the ammo count. 1: 1 point. 2 or more: 2 points
If the MS has passive abilities (for itself or the pilot): 1 point. If they are great for the role (ex: damage reduction for defender, more ATK for attacker, etc): 2 points instead. Two good abilities for the role: 3 points instead.
If the MS has a linked pilot: -1 point. If, however, it is a very good pilot: 1 point instead.
If the MS has a weapon of a higher tier that can only be used at maximum tension: 1 point.
If the MS has a weapon with Preemptive Strike: 1 point.
If the MS has rare debuff (for instance, Barbatos Adapt can decrease weapon range): 1 point.
