Ronin has only 1 torture, which isn't guaranteed to be used, compared to Hookuai's 1 or 2 tortures that might be used. Also, Ronin's Torture is worse than Hookuai's. Ronin's set up skill for him to deal more damage is much worse than Hookuai's set up skill allowing for Hookuai to defeat enemies easier. Ronin's set up is also 1 of his few AoE's meaning that once he gets his damage boost he won't have the ability to use a powered up AoE attack. Hookuai also has a 0 CD skill allowing for him to never have to recharge while Ronin would have to. Also, Hookuai has Uriel's Essence so once he's dead he just comes back which is something massive that Ronin can't do. Overall, Ronin is literally just an inferior Hookuai and doesn't deserve to be in the same tier as Hookuai.

As for Hookuai vs Ugluk, Hookuai and Ugluk are basically equal with Hookuai being slightly better probably, but Ugluk is a monster on offense while Hookuai is the beast on defense
