Race is one of the most important characteristics of your character in Verse Piece. A testament to that is the fact that Race Rerolls are used as an intermediary currency when trading. Some races in Verse Piece are so powerful that they make you invulnerable in PvP. With all that in mind, we prepared the following Verse Piece race tier list to help you out when rerolling.
Verse Piece Race Tier List
![Verse Piece race tier list for the Vergil Rerun update made via TierMaker](https://www.destructoid.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/verse-piece-race-tier-list-vergil-rerun-update.png?resize=1251%2C713)
S | Contractor, Shadow, Dragonic |
A | Half Cyborg, Demonic, Truthseeker, Slime |
B | Dullahan, Vessel, Vampire, Angelica, Saiya |
C | Reaper, Arancar, Quincy, Fishman, Skypiean, Human |
The above tier list ranks each race in Verse Piece based on how strong it is overall, both in PvE and PvP. In general, Exotic races are just way stronger than all others, with very few exceptions. Contractor is the strongest race in Verse Piece overall, with Dragonic being very close behind. Shadow is the best race for PvP simply because it makes you immune to other players’ damage.
List of All Verse Piece Races
Here is a list of all races in Verse Piece, sorted by their rank on the tier list, along with the bonuses they give you. The percentages next to their rarities show the odds of getting a specific race when using Race Rerolls.
How do Races Work in Verse Piece

Races in Verse Piece give you specific passive bonuses just like traits do. Races don’t increase your stats, but they can multiply your damage and give you some unique buffs. For example, the Vampire race lets you lifesteal health back when dealing damage. Also, rerolling your race is a lot more difficult because you need Race Rerolls to do that.
How to Reroll Races
You can reroll your race by using Race Reroll materials from your inventory. When rerolling, you will have to confirm if you want to reroll a Legendary, Mythical, or Exotic race. You can get Race Rerolls either by purchasing them at the Adventure Shop NPC, trading for them with other players, or by redeeming Verse Piece codes.
How to Store Races

To store your race in Verse Piece, you will first need to expand your race storage. For this, you will need a Race Storage material, which can be obtained in the same way as Race Rerolls. With at least one unlocked slot in your race storage, you can then click on the race in your inventory to switch it out with the race currently on you.
Verse Piece Race Progression
In the beginning, try to get either Reaper or Arrancar so that you can improve the damage of your Sword and Fruit. Once you get a bit more Race Rerolls, try to get either Demonic, Vessel, or Vampire. If you are lucky early, or if you start obtaining more and more Race Rerolls, try to aim either for Contractor, Shadow, or Dragonic, as they are the best races in Verse Piece.
