Tap Simulator Reborn Tier List: Best Pets

A Tap Simulator Reborn tier list cannot be written the way tier lists are written for finished games, because the game is days old and its pet pool is still being discovered. What can be done, and what this page does, is separate the three things that actually decide whether a pet is good: which egg it comes from, which rarity tier it sits in, and which upgrade variation you own.

• Two axes, not one — rarity tiers and the normal to golden to diamond to rainbow ladder
• Strongest confirmed non-secret — Cerberus, from the Void Egg
• Confirmed secret pets — Anubis and Chronos, both shown on official promotional art
• Where tiers top out — rainbow hatching is reportedly gated behind collecting all 15 Shiny Stars
• Be sceptical of named lists — most pet names circulating online are unverified

The Two Ladders Every Pet Sits On

New players compare pets by name. The game does not work that way. Every pet has a position on two independent ladders, and a pet's real value is the product of both.

Ladder one is rarity. Community playthroughs have recorded common, rare, epic, legendary and mythic pets, with secret pets sitting outside the normal pool. Rarity decides what a pet's base multiplier looks like and, roughly, how deep into the egg pool you have to go to find it.

Ladder two is variation. Every pet also climbs normal, golden, diamond and rainbow. Community sources describe this as a single variation ladder that applies across the whole pet list. This is the axis beginners miss, and it is the one that matters most, because a diamond version of an ordinary pet can out-earn the base version of a better one.

That second ladder is why crafting exists in this game at all. You are not just hatching for a rarer name, you are hatching copies so you can fuse them upward.

Which Pets Are Actually Confirmed

Most of what circulates as a "pet list" for this game is unverified. Here is what has a traceable source.

Everything else you see in a list format — and there are a lot of those lists — should be treated as unconfirmed until you can find a source that shows the pet in game. The safest assumption is that any site claiming to rank thirty named pets two days after launch is generating names.

The evidence quality problem is worth spelling out, because it changes what you should do with this page. The two pets on the official artwork are certain: the developer chose to print them, so they exist and their displayed multipliers are developer-provided. The rest come from community recordings, which are reliable for "this pet exists" and much less reliable for exact multipliers, because a pet's displayed value depends on the player's own upgrades and rebirth total.

One useful cross-check comes from the game's own achievement data. Golden tier one has been earned by around 192,000 players, while the first Hatching badge sits at roughly 97,000 and the first Clicking badge at only about 13,000. In plain terms, fusing a golden pet is something almost every player does, which means the golden rung of the variation ladder is an early-game milestone, not a late-game flex. If you have not crafted a golden yet, you are behind the median player.

How to Read a Tier List You Did Not Write

Because pet stats scale with the owner's own progression, screenshots of multipliers are not a reliable ranking signal on their own. When you look at a tier list for this game, including any of the widely shared ones, check three things.

Is the pet's multiplier shown at base or upgraded? A x4.42k figure displayed next to a secret pet reflects that account's upgrades, not the pet's base value.

Is the egg named? Rarity without a source egg is not actionable. You cannot farm for a pet you cannot locate.

Is the list dated? The game was patched on October 15, 2026 and had multiple updates in its first week. A list written before a patch may describe a different balance point entirely.

This is not a reason to ignore community tier lists. It is a reason to use them for ordering rather than for numbers.

The Rainbow Ceiling

Rainbow is the top of the variation ladder and it is reportedly not something you hatch your way into directly, at least not at first. Community recordings state that collecting all 15 Shiny Stars scattered around the lobby and the islands unlocks rainbow hatching. That turns a collectible hunt into a progression gate, which is unusual and worth planning around.

If that is accurate, the Shiny Stars are not a side activity. They are the cheapest route to the top tier of the pet ladder, and they cost nothing but travel time. The Shiny Stars guide has the reported positions for all fifteen.

The crafting route exists in parallel: fusing pets upward through Golden, then Diamond, then Rainbow at dedicated machines. The crafting guide covers where each machine is and what the reported recipes look like.

Secret Pets and the Pity System

Secret pets sit outside the rarity ladder and are the reason one of the game's most expensive passes exists: Secret Hunter, priced at 1,999 Robux, makes secret pets 30 percent easier to hatch according to its official description. Prices that high only make sense if secrets are genuinely rare, which they are.

Community sources describe two features around secrets. The first is that secret slots stay hidden in an egg's index until you have completed that egg's regular pets, so you often do not know what you are hunting for until you are close. The second is a pity mechanic: one community wiki reports that at 15,000 hatches the game rolls a 50/50 between the current egg's secret and one from an older island, while another describes a pity system without committing to a threshold. The two accounts disagree, so treat the number as reported, not confirmed.

Recorded playthroughs also show that a single egg pool can contain two secret pets, which changes the arithmetic on any dedicated secret hunt: you are not always rolling for one specific pet.

What This Means for Your Team

Three rules follow from everything above, and they hold regardless of what the next patch does to individual numbers.

• Fill every equip slot before you chase rarity. Pet equip slots are limited by default and every filled slot contributes. A full team of mid-tier pets beats two excellent pets and an empty slot.
• Craft before you discard. The variation ladder means duplicates have value. Auto-delete filters exist precisely so you can keep the tiers you are fusing and clear the rest, and the eggs guide explains how to set them.
• Match the pet to the island. Each island's egg pool is tuned to that island's Coin scale. Running a full team of spawn pets on the desert island is the most common way players stall.

Official source: Tap Simulator Reborn on Roblox — the listing confirms that hatching eggs for pets is the multiplier layer of the game, and the official achievement list shows the six badge families (Clicking, Hatching, Golden, Hunter, Collector and Quest) that the pet systems feed into. Developer announcements about pet balance run through the Cursor Makers group.

FAQ

What is the best pet in Tap Simulator Reborn?

Cerberus from the Void Egg is the strongest confirmed non-secret pet, with a base multiplier of 192,000 and a diamond version reported near 1,000,000. Secret pets sit above it, but the spawn rates and base values for most of them are not officially published.

What are the pet rarities in Tap Simulator Reborn?

Community playthroughs have recorded common, rare, epic, legendary and mythic tiers, plus secret pets that sit outside the normal pool. On top of rarity, every pet also comes in normal, golden, diamond and rainbow variations.

Is a golden pet better than a rare pet?

Usually yes. The variation ladder is a separate multiplier axis, and an upgraded version of a lower-rarity pet commonly out-earns the base form of a higher one. Compare the variation tag before comparing the name.

How do you get rainbow pets in Tap Simulator Reborn?

Community recordings state that collecting all 15 Shiny Stars unlocks rainbow hatching. The alternative route is crafting, fusing pets upward through golden and diamond at the island machines.

Are the pet tier lists online accurate?

Treat them as rough orderings rather than data. Multipliers shown in screenshots depend on the owner's own upgrades, many listed pet names have no verifiable source, and the game is still being patched, so any list published before a balance change describes a different game.
