Something tells me that they are all S or A tier, but I want to place them in the right place within the tiers if I am going to add them to my tier list. Oh and I do want to add the landmark doctrines to the next version of the tier list, but they don't show up in the imperial archive, so I don't know what all of them do. I will likely cover the shakarn doctrines in 4 or 5 weeks from now. I will revisit this topic as new doctrines are introduced, but only after I have had a bit of time to play around with them. (for example, Indentured Contracts may save you a lot more energy per turn than Noble Diplomats makes for you in a turn)
It maybe that a doctrine that I ranked lowly will benefit you a lot more than one I ranked highly, so use your best judgment. If a doctrine you want to use is further down on the list make sure you are passing up on an better option. You only get access to 7 doctrine slots in Planetfall (Syndicate get 8 doctrine slots), so you only want to pick doctrines that you think you are going to use for a while or the rest of the game, making your decision on which doctrines you use one of the most important decisions in a game. With that synergy, those doctrines can be consider as good as the doctrines in the tier above them.ĭoctrines with the two swords on the bottom right corner do extra damage to specific unit types. Divine Legion has a 7, because it is a "tier 7' technology (it is 7 slots from left, requiring that other doctrines are researched before it is).ĭoctrines with NPC written on the top left corner are doctrines that are unlocked by befriending a NPC faction, like the Growth or the Psi-fish.ĭoctrines with a E on the top left corner are doctrines which are unlocked by completing empire quests.ĭoctrines with a L on the top left corner are doctrines which are unlocked by clearing a landmark.ĭoctrines with the blue arrow and a circle on the top right corner are doctrines than can get significantly better with the use of other doctrines or strategies that synergise with it.
Noble Diplomats has a 1, because it can be research from the beginning of the game. The number represents how far down the tech tree a doctrine is. Doctrine that are further left within each tier are better than the doctrines that are to the right of them.ĭoctrines with a number on the top left corner can be research in the tech tree. For example, Inner communion only allows every one of your units to carry a single extra charge of essence, which is fairly negligible, unless you heavily invest in a strategy that generates essence quickly, then it can be okay. Doctrines in D tier are my least favorite, and what I would recommend you avoid, expect in a few very specific situations. Doctrines in B tier are slightly worse than those in C tier. Doctrines in A tier are slightly less useful than the ones in S tier. (I'm having issue posting the complete tier list image here, so here is a link to a copy of this post: )ĭoctrines in the S tier are what I consider the best in the game.

In this post, I will cover how to use my tier list, and my plans for future tier lists. Likewise, if you do agree with my assessment, then I would find it helpful to hear those thoughts as well.

With that being said, I want to encourage the discussion of my tier list, so please feel free to let me know what you would change in the comments down below. If you have any strong opinions about where they doctrines should go, please keep that in mind, and know that this is a general guide to help new players understand why I choose to use some doctrines over others. I have a lot more experience with some doctrines than others, and I did ask others a few questions about the doctrines that I am less familiar with. If you want to watch the video version, here is the link:įULL DISCLAIMER: My tier lists were put together using my preferences and playstyles that I have developed over the past 9 months of playing planetfall. As requested by a comment on one of my guides on the stream, I am posting my tier lists here to the discussions, to make it easier for new players to find them.
