Jokers · Tier List

Best Jokers in Far Far West

The roguelike joker cards ranked by tier, with notes on which scale into late-run and which to reroll on sight.

Tier	Joker	Effect	Why
S	Iron Heart	+1% damage per kill (stacks)	Run-defining scaler. Lock on sight.
S	Last Bullet	Final round in magazine deals 5x	Free crits for every reload cycle.
S	Snake-Charmer	+50% damage vs reptiles	Solo answer to the snake problem.
A	Hex Echo	Spells cast twice (50% chance)	Doubles caster output once per fight.
A	Bone Coin	+1 gold per kill	Compounds into the late-run shop.
A	Second Wind	Once per run: revive at 1 HP	Free clutch save in boss phase 3.
B	Lucky Strike	+5% crit chance	Decent but boring; only stack 2.
B	Frost Tap	Crits inflict slow	Strong vs snipers, situational.
C	Tin Star	+10 max HP	Almost never worth the slot.
C	Pocket Watch	-5% reload time	You get this from upgrades; skip.

Reroll Priority

Reroll until you see Iron Heart or Last Bullet by floor 2.
Then look for an economy joker (Bone Coin).
Save one slot for Second Wind before the floor-3 boss.
Last slot is flex — element-tap jokers go here.

Synergy Notes

Iron Heart + Last Bullet is the classic scaling stack. Hex Echo + Hex Mark double-dips the +25% spell damage. Snake-Charmer + Frost Tap turns swamp biomes into a non-issue.
