In Verse Piece, races play a crucial role in determining your strengths, weaknesses, and overall effectiveness in combat. Whether you’re looking for raw power, defensive capabilities, or supportive passives, choosing the right race can make all the difference.
With the latest updates, the race system has seen some major balance changes. Some races that were once top-tier have shifted down, while new contenders have emerged as the strongest choices. In this guide, I’ll break down each race, explain how they work, and rank them in a tier list based on their strengths, weaknesses, and overall viability.
Complete Races Guide & Best Race Tier List (Updated)
Races in Verse Piece determine various passive abilities, stat boosts, and combat advantages your character has. Some races focus on raw damage, others provide defensive buffs, and some excel in support roles.
Races can be obtained through:
- Character Creation: When you first start the game, your race is randomly assigned.
- Race Rerolls: If you’re unhappy with your race, you can reroll using in-game currency or Robux. Some events also provide free rerolls, as well as codes.
Races in Verse Piece fall into different categories based on their rarity and effectiveness:
- Common Races: Basic stat bonuses with minimal advantages.
- Legendary Races: Stronger passives and multipliers.
- Mythical & Exotic Races: Rare and highly powerful, offering unique abilities that can shift the tide of battle.
Now that you know how races work, let’s dive into the tier list.
Verse Piece Race Tier List (Updated)
S+ Tier – Absolute Best Races
These races offer game-changing abilities, making them the best picks overall.
- Dullahan – Starts weak during the day but becomes an absolute powerhouse at night with a massive damage multiplier. If you time your fights correctly, this race can dominate.
- Contractor – Gains stacks upon taking damage, leading to an explosion that both damages enemies and heals the user. The sustain and offensive pressure make it a top-tier pick.
- Draconic – One of the best offensive races with a 2.25x damage multiplier, making it ideal for high DPS playstyles.
- Half Cyborg – The ultimate tank with double health and a 75% damage reduction, making it incredibly hard to take down.
Good for PvP
These races excel in player-versus-player combat, either through strong offensive abilities or defensive advantages.
- Shadow – Grants 100% damage reduction in PvP, essentially making you invincible. However, it is quite buggy, which prevents it from being S+ tier.
- Demonic – Offers a high 1.75x damage multiplier and reduces enemy healing, making it a deadly option for PvP battles.
Good for Support Roles
These races provide excellent utility, healing, or defensive bonuses, making them ideal for team-based gameplay.
- Half Cyborg – Besides its tankiness, it’s great for supporting allies by soaking up damage.
- Slime – Reduces incoming damage by 80%, allowing you to absorb hits for your team.
- Vampire – Life steal passive lets you heal while dealing damage, making it excellent for sustain.
- Saiyan – 35% damage reduction allows it to survive longer in fights, helping support teammates.
S Tier – Extremely Strong Choices
These races have powerful abilities and multipliers, making them top-tier but not quite as game-breaking as S+ tier races.
- Truth Seeker – A sword-focused race that grants 2.5x sword damage and 50% more HP, but removes melee attacks and nerfs special damage. Ideal for sword mains.
- Vessel – Comes with a 1.5x damage multiplier, a slash passive, and a bleed effect, making it great for offensive playstyles.
- Angelica – Has a 1.25x damage multiplier and a passive ability that stuns opponents while dealing extra damage.
- Demonic – Although already listed in PvP tier, its high damage multiplier and anti-healing make it a solid all-around pick.
A Tier – Strong but Situational
Still viable but doesn’t have the same overwhelming impact as higher-tier races.
- Saiyan – A tanky option with damage reduction, but lacks offensive power compared to higher-tier races.
B Tier – Decent but Outclassed
These races have useful abilities but are overshadowed by stronger options.
- Arrancar – Provides a 1.5x special damage multiplier but lacks versatility.
- Reaper – Gives a 1.5x sword attack multiplier but isn’t as effective as other offensive races.
- Quincy – Reduces incoming damage by 15%, which is helpful but not as strong as higher-tier defensive races.
C Tier – Weakest Races
These races provide minimal advantages and are not worth keeping unless you have no other option.
- Skypian – Grants 10 uses of Geppo, but that’s all it offers.
- Fishman – Provides faster swimming speed, which has limited use in combat.
- Human – No buffs, making it the weakest race in the game.
Wrap-Up
Choosing the right race in Verse Piece depends on your playstyle. If you’re looking for the absolute best, Dullahan, Contractor, Draconic, and Half Cyborg stand out as the top picks. Shadow and Demonic dominate PvP, while Half Cyborg, Slime, Vampire, and Saiyan excel in support roles.
However, tier lists are always subjective. If you have a personal favorite that isn’t ranked high, it might still be a great choice depending on how you use it. Let me know your thoughts in the comments—what race do you think deserves a higher or lower ranking? Let’s talk about it!
