What the letters mean
Each row uses the perk lines and gem prices shared by the October 2026 class guides. The grade is an editorial reading of those lines for a general clear. A team run that only needs sell value can prefer Timber Baron over a higher letter. Always read the live card, including any Robux alternative.
S tier
Player decision Save for it when you want one card to cover every tracked job. Skip it as a first purchase if a cheaper perk or class would remove the bottleneck you have now.
A tier
Player decision Best long-term target if 4,000 gems is too far. Some lists place it in S. This board keeps S for the single highest card.
Player decision Buy it when you already carry enough logs and want speed plus sale value. Pair it with a carry tool or a carry class if trips are the problem.
B tier
Player decision Take it when trees are the wait and you do not need more logs per trip. It is not a chainsaw. The tool is a separate purchase.
Player decision Pick it when chops and bag space are both slow. Another list ranks it in A for that reason. Confirm you are not paying 1,000 of the wrong currency.
Player decision Buy it if rarer wood is the goal and Clawman or Lumber Legend is out of reach. It will not fix a small backpack.
C tier
Player decision Reasonable first paid class if 180 gems is what you have. It does not replace saving for a broader card later.
Player decision Choose it over Timber Baron when you need the bag space. Choose Timber Baron when sale value is the only gap.
Player decision Use it when selling is the bottleneck, including a team run where someone else chops. Skip it if you still cannot carry the logs.
Player decision Stay on Woodcutter until a gem card matches a real bottleneck. Do not spend Robux on a duplicate of the free start.
