Tier List

Bake or Die Tier Lists

S through D rankings for classes and weapons on 32-player servers, current through September 2026.

Tier List Hub

This hub is the ranking map for Bake or Die on Roblox. Big Bakers shipped the game on 5 April 2025 and is still patching it in September 2026, so the list is a snapshot of how 32-player servers actually play, not a museum of launch kits. Cash from pies funds guns, ammo, and diner repairs during a run. Gold Nuggets live in the lobby and buy classes. There is no code redemption loop; if a site promises free class unlocks, read why codes are not a thing and farm Nuggets in-run instead.

Two child pages carry the full tables. The class tier list ranks every shop class from S through D, with costs, starters, and a buy path. The weapons tier list ranks guns, melee, explosives, and turrets, plus the Cash order you should spend on the Gunsmith. The Players Hub is the roster companion when you want perk text instead of a letter grade.

How these ranks are built

A letter here means impact per Nugget or per Cash, not raw damage in a vacuum. Bombastica clears nights that Juggernaut merely survives, but Bombastica costs 250 Nuggets and eats explosive pies. Gunslinger sits in S because 65 Nuggets buys reload, ammo, damage, and recoil perks that scale every gun you later purchase. Repairman sits in D because walls already repair cheaply, so a dedicated hammer kit solves a problem most diners do not have.

We also split solo from squad. A Doctor at 75 Nuggets is A-tier on a full server and a skip if you never revive anyone. Gladiator is S for melee players who accept that they cannot pick up guns. Baker is C because faster ovens print Cash, but Cash does not stop a night-five funnel by itself. Login exclusives (Scavenger and Mad Scientist) are called out as exclusives so you do not plan a Nugget route around kits you cannot buy.

Class snapshot (September 2026)

Consensus across current class guides puts three kits in true S, with expensive late unlocks treated as S or A depending on your Nugget bank.

TierClassesWhy they sit here
SBombastica, Gladiator, GunslingerWave clear, melee carry, cheapest S gun kit
Late S / ABounty Hunter, Wizard, Mad ScientistStrong kits, 450–600 Nuggets or login exclusive
ANecromancer, Doctor, Butcher, ExterminatorSummons, squad heals, corpse grind, poison spread
BNinja, Technician, Juggernaut, UnicyclistKatana, turrets, double HP, mobility after the June 19 2026 flying removal
CBaker, Medic, GardenerEconomy, weak heals, farm utility
D / situationalRepairmanHammer perks that rarely beat a better combat class

Beginners should not stare at S and freeze. The spend path that actually gets you there is Juggernaut at 30 Nuggets for the +100% HP safety net, Gunslinger at 65 for the first real gun kit, then Bombastica at 250 once pies and nights are stable. Squads should slot a Doctor. Melee mains should take Gladiator or Butcher instead of forcing a revolver they will not enjoy. Open the class picker if you want that path as a filter instead of a paragraph.

Weapon snapshot

Weapons are a Cash problem, not a Nugget problem. Early nights, buy two Revolvers at $150 each and swap so one fires while the other reloads. A $200 butcher knife covers close work if you are not on Gladiator. Climb through the M1 Garand and Sawed-Off, then bank for the SMG at $1,250. The Exo Rifle at about $14,500 is a late-run flex, not a day-two purchase. Auto Turrets belong in S for diner defense. Kaboom Cannon and Undead Staff are class-locked. The Ray Gun comes from the Evergreen Science Facility blueprint, not the Gunsmith board. Later patches added the Minigun and Za Vonderblaste as high-end guns; treat them like Exo-tier spends, not starter toys.

Rank guns above melee for most new players, melee above guns for Gladiator, and explosives above both once Bombastica is equipped. Turrets are force multipliers: they do not replace a class, they buy you oven time. Details and the full buy order live on the weapons rankings. Pair that page with how to survive nights so the ranking matches the funnel you actually hold.

How to use this hub

Read the class list if you are about to spend Nuggets. Read the weapons list if you are about to dump a pie stack into the Gunsmith. Then jump to a kit page when a letter is not enough: Bombastica, Gunslinger, and Necromancer are the three deep dives on this wiki. The full class roster keeps costs and starters in one table if you are shopping the lobby wall.

Patch days can move a letter without rewriting a kit. Unicyclist lost flying in the 19 June 2026 update and dropped from a novelty S pick to a B mobility class. Exterminator arrived in that same cycle and settled in A as a poison specialist at 55 Nuggets. Check latest updates and patch notes before you copy a month-old screenshot of the shop.

If a June or September patch moves a class, this hub will shift the snapshot first. The child pages keep the long tables, the buy paths, and the arguments so you can spend Nuggets on purpose instead of on the next icon in the lobby.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers for diner nights, classes, and pie sells.

What is the best class in Bake or Die right now?

Bombastica is the strongest wave-clear kit at 250 Nuggets. Gunslinger is the best cheap S-tier at 65. Gladiator is the melee S pick if you will never touch a gun.

Should I rank classes and weapons on the same list?

No. Classes cost Gold Nuggets in the lobby. Weapons cost Cash during a run. Use the class list to spend Nuggets and the weapons list to spend pie money.

What should a new player buy first?

Juggernaut at 30 Nuggets, then Gunslinger at 65, then Bombastica at 250. In a squad, add Doctor. For melee, take Gladiator or Butcher instead of Gunslinger.

Are Bounty Hunter, Wizard, and Mad Scientist S-tier?

They play like late S or A depending on budget. Bounty Hunter is 450 Nuggets, Wizard is 600, and Mad Scientist is login exclusive. Do not skip Gunslinger to rush them.

Where do I read perk text instead of letter grades?

Open the Players Hub and the full class roster. Featured kits are Bombastica, Gunslinger, and Necromancer.
