Железный Рыцарь is the most forgiving starter Охотник на демонов for new players learning Pass the Fear's bullet-hell patterns. His shield abilities absorb damage spikes during the Storm Wall guardian phases that would otherwise one-shot other starters, and his Бастион Ультимейт grants a 5-second team-wide shield that can save the squad during the most punishing boss enrage timers. Recommended as the first pick for players new to the roguelite bullet-hell genre, because his shield mechanics teach positioning and timing without forcing restart-heavy learning curves. His tank role also makes him the most sought-after squad member in 4-player co-op runs where one player must absorb frontline damage while teammates focus on DPS rotations and burst windows.

Взрывная Милашка is the AoE room-clear starter that excels at wiping Акт 1 swarms with self-damage bursts. Her blast Ультимейт clears most encounter rooms in a single cast, and her weapon affinity for explosive projectile parts multiplies Огоньworks Master build potential. However, her self-damage mechanic requires deliberate spacing — stand too close to your own burst and you'll lose half your HP. Recommended for players who enjoy aggressive, screen-clearing play and don't mind the higher skill ceiling. She excels in solo runs where AoE clear speed matters more than burst-window damage, and her co-op role is support DPS that clears adds while the team's tank holds the front.

Денежный Гений is the economy-scaling starter that converts gold pickups into damage and shop discounts. Where other starters plateau on raw stats, Денежный Гений scales infinitely with gold accumulation, making him the strongest solo clear pick for new players who are willing to learn his gold-management loop. His Золотая лихорадка Ультимейт doubles gold drop rate for 30 seconds, which compounds with his passive gold-to-damage Талант to create runaway scaling. Best for solo runs and shop-heavy builds; less impactful in 4-player co-op where gold drops are split across the squad. He rewards patient playstyles that prioritize economy over burst damage.

Одноглазый Старик is the precision crit starter that focuses on single-shot burst damage for boss melt windows. His Снайп Ультимейт adds 200% next-shot crit chance to the killing bullet, which pairs with Leaf Cutter's single-shot chassis to enable one-bullet boss clears. He is the recommended first-clear pick for experienced roguelite players who can position for precision hits. His weapon affinity for crit builds means he underperforms on AoE-focused chassis like Skorpian, so pair him with Leaf Cutter rather than Skorpian. The wiki tracks the recommended Талант path for the fastest first-clear using Одноглазый Старик.

Таинственная Монахиня is the support starter that keeps the squad alive through clutch saves and debuff auras. Her Воскрешение Ультимейт is uniquely strong in co-op, where it can save a wiped squad during the most punishing boss enrage timers. She underperforms in raw DPS without specific build investments, so she reads as weak in the early Талант slots. Best played by experienced players who understand support role positioning and can coordinate with DPS teammates. The wiki tracks the recommended Талант path for the Таинственная Монахиня's strongest late-game scaling.
