Ranking and why
- Death Painting (S): Brotherhood senses allied Death Painting players in your Guild or Party through walls, Rot gives retaliatory toxic blood when you are hit with bleed, plus Cursed Reinforcement and Blood Throw. Roonby calls it one of the most valuable races to get. The Blue Demon variant unlocks Demon Shift at Grade 2.
- Mutated Corpse (A): Big Form doubles the Side stat, gives +40% non-technique damage and 15% less damage taken but 8% slower; Small Form is half size with +15% speed; Tubes replace Switch Types with Overcharge.
- Incarnated Sorcerer (B): +10% Cursed Technique damage and a free technique skill before you finish the Trial. Good for technique builds, narrow otherwise.
- Cursed Spirit (C+): a Cursed Reinforcement defensive stack that absorbs hits.
- Human (C): +10% max HP. Simple and fine for learning to fight.
How sure are these tiers
The odds (2%, 4%, 7%, 87%) are the ones in our races page, which come from the game's creation screen. The perks and tiers are from Roonby; it says it ranks the races but does not use formal tiers, so the S to C letters here are our reading of its order. shibuya.wiki lists the same perks for Incarnated Sorcerer (+10% technique damage), Human (+10% HP) and Cursed Spirit.
We did not find a second site that ranks Mutated Corpse and Incarnated Sorcerer differently that we could open, so the order of A and B is one guide's view.
Tips
- Check what your clan already gives you before rerolling the race.
- Incarnated Sorcerer is the pick for technique-damage builds, even though it ranks below Mutated Corpse.
