Recently, TYPE://SOUL on Roblox has had a bit of a resurgence because of the re-release. As a result, the meta that you are familiar with when it comes to a lot of systems has changed. This includes Schrifts – which are the main source of power of the Quincy Race. Each Schrift is unique allowing Quincies to create all sorts of builds. But when we look at the meta, there are some Schrifts that will stand out from the rest. This is why we have prepared a tier list where we will be comparing all the Schrifts currency available in the re-release. Without further delay, let’s get into it!
Best Schrift Tier List (Updated For Re-Release)
There are currently 21 Schrifts available in Type Soul, across various rarities: Mythics, Legendaries, Rares & Commons. They represent your first major power-up as a Quincy player by granting you a letter from the alphabet that symbolizes your combat ability.
Each letter comes with its own passive and active skill set. If you’re just starting out and don’t know how to get a Schrift, check out our how to get shikai, schrift and partial res guide.
For the most part, Schrifts are quite easy to get – although some of the powerful mythics can be hard to obtain. The Schrifts we’ll be ranking are on our personal experience and preferences, while also looking at the meta.
We’ve seen a shift in the meta because of the various nerfs and some buffs to the available Schrifts.
With that said, here is the Best Schrift Tier List for Type Soul.
S Tier
- While Almighty hasn’t been shown yet, it’s going to be super hard to get based on its rarity. Additionally, based on the game’s history, we can make the calculated guess that it’s going to be overpowered and better than the other Schrifts.
- With the Nimble T move, you get three dodges that you can use to apply a lot of pressure. With every dodge, you gain more speed making it insanely fast for Speed users. On top of that, the G move offers multi hit and opponents will have a very difficult time parrying multiple times. It offers a fair bit of stun so you can also combo extend off it.
- Overkill allows you to get rid of your active skills to get passive stat buffs. These buffs can be enhanced by gripping players and caps at 200 grips. The cap is +40% Posture, +40% Rei, +30% Speed, +50% Damage and +20% Defense. This makes it incredibly broken as you can both tank and deal a lot of damage. Most broken Schrift in Type Soul by far!
A Tier
- With a pretty niche passive, Zombie allows you to apply blood when you guard break an opponent. When the blood meter is full, you can grip players and turn them into zombies. However, in most cases you won’t be using it. However, the moves themselves offer decent damage and range with some counters and guard breaks. Viable on Kido, Speed, Kendo & Medic.
- With Butterfly, you get a really good mixup of fast moves. The T move is really nice as it offers AoE, guard break, high posture damage and can also rag doll enemies. There is a lot of combo extend potential with this Schrift that you can use if you have a good idea of how to execute them. Viable on Speed, Hakuda & Kendo.
- Explode offers a really consistent moveset, with guard breaks. The various explosions allow you to throw around opponents a lot, and you can take advantage of that to extend combos. Some of the moves also now provide air time that you can use to extend combos as well.
- Balance was known for its powerful T move and stun that got nerfed. However, even after the nerfs, this Schrift offers decent moves. The G move stands out as you can use it for massive heals when you reach 100 order. Alternatively, you can also use it to damage others. You just need to make sure they don’t cancel it, since it’s a big part of your kit. Viable on Kido, Speed & Kendo.
- Death-Dealing is a Schrift that can work on pretty much anything – it’s good with Kido, Speed & Kendo. It also offers a nice variety of moves – and a passive that enables you to deal more damage and apply pressure to enemies. However, it isn’t as oppressive as the other Schrifts can be. Some of the moves are fairly easy to parry or get out of for experienced players.
- If you’re a Hakuda, you’ll really like the buffed Superstar. Many of the moves allow you to keep opponents in the air, offering excellent combo extends. It also got the Superstar passive, which makes it overpowered. When you hit Schrift moves, your damage and defense will increase by 4%. At low HP, you will also heal 2 seconds. The passive has a small cooldown of only 3 seconds.
- Heat offers a ton of damage, has really long range and a huge AoE guard break move. Using the T move at max range will make them kneel for a solid second, allowing you to do a true combo. The G move allows you to do tons of damage. Viable on Speed, Kendo, Hakada & Kido. Perfect, all round Schrift.
- There’s so many combos you can execute with Wind. You can do a variety of almost true combos. This is because you can throw enemies into the air, stun them and also guard break. This Schrift is most effective with Speed and Kendo.
B Tier
- Miracle offers a fairly balanced but inconsistent moveset. The T move is easy to parry with a long windup. On the other hand, the G move allows you to guard break and ragdoll opponents. But since the moves don’t synergize, you won’t be able to do combos consistently.
- If you’re a Hakuda, you’ll enjoy Glutton even if it can be a bit inconsistent. The T and G moves synergize well, because you can proc healing while doing a lot of damage. So, there is certainly combo potential here for close combat. You also get the Feast passive which allows you to get your Voltmeter and percentage of your HP back.
- With the nerfs to Visionary, you can’t really move stack as often. Additionally, it is also easy to parry the T move once you learn the timing. The G move offers decent damage but it doesn’t work against opponents close to you, giving them time to punish you. You can definitely make this Schrift work, but it’s not as good as it used to be.
- Thunderbolt offers the Tether passive that you can use to prevent opponents from flashing. This helps set up your G move, where you can ragdoll them for a true combo. However, the T move is a bit hard to land on good players although you can make it work at times. As a result, it can feel a bit inconsistent.
- You can use Power on pretty much anything – Kido, Speed, Hakuda & Kendo. It has a really consistent moveset with the T move allowing you to combo extend. From there, you can use the fast G move that also has guard break and hyper armor to hit them far.
- Iron offers alright damage but is quite inconsistent with attacks and has a lot of end lag. While the G move can be used to execute a true combo, the hitbox for it is wonky. As a result, this can really hurt this Schrift.
C Tier
- Compulsory is a fairly hit or miss Schrift. The T move is faster with more range, and the G move does high posture damage. You certainly have combo options but you’ll need to be experienced to be able to make it work. Still pretty average.
- Fear is alright but gets overshadowed by other Schrifts. The T move is easy to predict, making it an easy counter. The G move requires you to aim and doesn’t offer enough damage to make up for it. All in all, a very situational move set that won’t help much.
D Tier
- While you do get hyper armor and guard break with the T and G moves of Royal, the windup with them is so long. You take so long to execute them that you’ll be punished long before you can unleash them. This makes this Schrift practically pointless to use!
- X-Axis is extremely poor because it takes you a solid second to shoot a bullet. As a result, you are going to get punished easily and your opponents will have forever to dodge your attacks. Poor Schrift.
Final Thoughts
That’s everything you need to know for the best Schrift tier list in Type Soul. Most of the movesets in the A tier are fairly viable and it honestly depends on your preference and playstyle. The ones in the S tier are objectively the best though as they are part of the established meta. The ones in B tier are situational and you can certainly make them work. We recommend avoiding the ones in C and D tier and only really using them until you can get better Schrifts. Keep in mind though that all these Schrifts can get nerfed or buffed as the re-release progresses. Hopefully, you’ll find one that suits you!
