Every Rare Reviver in RAID: Shadow Legends RANKED
Revivers are one of the most important types of champion in RAID: Shadow Legends, helping your teams stay consistent and recover from deaths–it’s fair to say that most players will try to include a reviver in every team if they can!
In this series we’re going to be ranking every single reviver in the game, updated for the end of 2025, so you know who is the best for every single rarity, for every single faction, for every single situation.
Today, we’re tackling rares: there’s fewer here than in most other rarities, but even these relatively low-powered revivers might find a spot in your teams.
CONDITIONAL RARE REVIVERS
First up, we’re covering what we’re calling the “conditional” rare revivers: these rares can revive, but it’s not a standard active ability which can be reliably used. This is still useful–and we wanted to make sure to include these champions since they might be useful–but we felt it wasn’t right to include them in the main list.
Note: the list goes from worst to best!
1. MASTER BUTCHER
Master Butcher is a very unique rare champion, particularly due to his random revive when he dies. It’s random; he might die before anyone else; it has a long cooldown; and he needs another reviver to revive him too… But it’s still a cool ability that might be useful in some niche teams.
STANDARD RARE REVIVERS
These are the standard rare revivers. Some are good, some are only barely useable–but even a rare reviver can sometimes be key to building teams in Faction Wars, Doom Tower, or Cursed City.

6. HARUSPEX
Even though he’s a Void Rare, Haruspex is very weak. Every part of his kit is undertuned, and crucially he competes directly against permanent fusion Broadmaw for the budget reviver slot in Lizardmen Faction Wars–Broadmaw also isn’t all that good, but he’s certainly better than Haruspex. This champion, sadly, is not worth building.
3. GEARGRINDER
A simple reviver with a bit of team healing and self-preservation, the big claim to fame for Geargrinder though is that he is the only accessible reviver for Ogryn Tribes: the only other option at time of writing is Belletar Mage-Slayer, who is a Void Legendary. This is a champion many players will need to build to progress in Ogryn Tribe content!
2. TREESHIELD KNOTT
The newest rare reviver for the newest Faction (until the teased Atlantean faction drops early 2026), Knott is a decent champion. He’s good for Faction Wars, and is partiuclarly helpful against the Fire Knight for new players due to his triple-hit A1. He’s solid, though there are several better options for Sylvan Watchers.
1. RELIQUARY TENDER
The best rare reviver in the game ironically has a pretty poor revive: this is because the big selling point for Reliquary Tender is her A2, which brings an extremely useful full team Debuff Removal, alongside some decent healing. Her revive is more of a bonus, but it will still come in useful, and this is a champ almost everyone will build at some point in RAID.
