Rogue Piece Combat Spec and Fruit Tier List

Image by Destructoid

Both Combat Specs and Fruits scale with the Power stat in Rogue Piece (RIP Strength stat). On average, Combat Specs tend to be stronger than swords on average even though SJW Daggers/Yuta compare decently well. Fruits tend to be weaker than swords with Light (the strongest fruit) being comparable to A-Tier swords (See above). Let's analyze them individually.

Spec & Fruit Tip: These go best with the Aizen's Outfit/Akaza Beads/Garou's Outfit and Demon race for the most Power damage possible. Also get the Soul Spirit Relic for more Power damage which is a rare drop from Chests.

S-Tier Specs & Fruits

S-Tier	Why S-Tier?	Location
Garou	• Fast M1s and a ton of multi-hit attacks for high PVP and PVE DPS • There's also great utility here with X i-Frames and two cutscenes with C and V for dodging damage • C and V deal some of the highest damage in the entire game and this gets boosted even further once you get the Garou Outfit and Soul Spirit Relic • Easily outdamages Aizen and Sukuna	Glacier Isle Get Suiryu from the Garou NPC +Complete quest Defeat 25 Diamond Rank Players Punch 2500 times with Suiryu Then farm Silver Fang Boss on GI for Book of Mastery Finally use Book of Mastery after Quest with Suiryu equipped
Gojo	• Gojo doesn't have as much DPS as Garou but it has a lot of stuns and iFrames thanks to the domain expansion on V • It's one of the best PVP specs in the game and excellent for completing the Garou quest • That said it's also good by itself for PVP/PVE	Jujutsu Highschool Get from Gojo NPC with materials from the Gojo Boss You also need The Honored One trait
Aizen	•Aizen overall does more burst damage with his moves than Sukuna but the CDs are longer • Still it's some of the highest damage in the game so you'll have no trouble with bosses, PVE farming and PVP • Your range is lower than Sukuna but you have a mobility teleport multi-hit move • Plus, the black coffin is massive AOE damage • IMO Gojo is better due to iFrames and Stuns and Garou deals more damage so it goes Garou>Gojo>Aizen	Huecomundo Aizen Teacher

A-Tier Specs & Fruits

A-Tier	Why A-Tier?	Location
Sukuna	• Sukuna has lower burst damage than the ones above but it has better combos • The light combos with Sukuna are some of the best in the game since the M1 is so good and has range • Plus you get good range on all of your abilities, they're fast and have lower CD than Aizen • You have amazing AOE and damage for PVE farming and the moves can be pretty good in PVP too • You also get a nice damage boost	Windmill Village Sukuna Teacher On a hill
Akaza	• Akaza has some of the best M1s in terms of combat specs and overall his moves deal really good damage • Plus they are all low cooldown so the DPS stacks up quite fast • That said the range is low so you'll struggle a bit in PVP if you don't have good movement or you get kited • That's why I prefer Aizen or Sukuna but don't get me wrong, Akaza is still the top 3 DPS option in the game	Throne Isle Akaza Teacher

B-Tier Specs & Fruits

B-Tier	Why B-Tier?	Location
Light	• The best Fruit/Power in the game both in terms of DPS and mobility (The combat specs and most swords are still better) • You get really good AOE DPS moves to complement Combat Specs • You also have the best mobility move in the entire game with F allowing you to both move fast and reposition in PVP • It's got worse DPS than Combat Specs and Swords but it's still a good backup to have when your Spec skills are on CD	Rogue Town Fruit Gacha NPC 2% chance to drop

C-Tier Specs & Fruits

C-Tier	Why C-Tier?	Location
Blood Power Scales With Power	• Light is better but Blood is still a great alternative for PVE farming • It's better than Gravity in terms of DPS for bosses even though Gravity has better range and AOE • You also get a movement skill similar to Light with F but slower	Rogue Town Fruit Gacha NPC 5% chance to drop
Sandevistan	• The Sandevistan is by far the worst combat spec but when compared to other Powers/Swords it's similar to Tanjiro's Sword • You get more moves than Swords but they are all a bit slow and deal low DPS • This can be good mid game for farming but I would overall just farm towards any of the other Combat Specs • For example, the speed boost is cool but Akaza gets almost 3 times better speed on the final move and much higher DPS • Sandevistan needs a buff badly	Rogue Town David NPC He's at the back of the island on a hill next to the water
Gravity	• Overall Gravity does have good AOE and range but the DPS is simply worse than Blood and Light • So there's not much point using it other than early game farming if you get lucky and get it	Rogue Town Fruit Gacha NPC 5% chance to drop

D-Tier Specs & Fruits

D-Tier	Why D-Tier?	Location
Quake	• Quake is better than Bomb but it's still not the best since your moves are slow and don't deal that much damage • The only good thing is C which is a massive AOE for PVE farming but only for mobs and not bosses and it's on an incredibly high CD • Just use Blood or Light	Rogue Town Fruit Gacha NPC 30% chance to drop
Bomb	• Never use this • Just use Swords to farm either better Fruits or Combat Specs if you want to build Power and then respec	Rogue Town Fruit Gacha NPC 50% chance to drop

Rogue Piece Sword Tier List

Image by Destructoid

The best sword in Rogue Piece depends on if you're looking for fast AFK/PVE grinding, high boss damage or PVP. The S-Tier covers all of these needs while the A-Tier are weaker alternatives. The B-Tier is mostly for PVE grinding and nothing else with Zangetsu having more DPS while the others have faster movesets/are better for farming. The C and D-Tiers are either underpowered options or good starters for PVE farming. Let's analyze them individually below.

Swords Tip: Swords go best with Reaper Clothes/Yuta's Outfit/Vampire Suit and Arrancar race for max Sword stat boost. Also get the Broken Edge Relic for more Sword damage as a rare drop from chests.

S-Tier Swords

S-Tier	Why S-Tier?	Location
Dual Daggers	• Easily the best Sword in the entire game with DPS that can compete with Combat Specs which are usually the highest DPS in the game • SJW Daggers give you a lot of flexibility since you have high damage, high DPS, good M1s but also good mobility • X is such a great move for PVP to get better mobility and is also decent for PVE • You can easily solo bosses with these just make sure you have the recommended loadout below	Rogue Town Dual Dagger Seller
Yuta's Katana	• Requires a lot of grinding due to the low chance Rika's Ring drop from the Yuta boss but it's incredibly worth since this is the top 2 Sword in the game • The M1s are fast and the C and V cutscene moves deal massive damage if you can land them • Z and X are fast for mix ups so overall you have both a really good PVP and also a great PVE option with high damage	Jujutsu Highschool Get Spiritual Katana from Yuta Then grind Yuta Boss until you get the Rika's Ring 1% +Complete Yuta's quest (Defeat 100 Bosses using SK) Then use it while having Spiritual Katana
Tensa Zangetsu	• Zangetsu has finally been buffed with a V2 version • Not the best M1s in the game but the skill damage is massive • Z and X are really fast and easy to hit and good for PVP • C and V deal massive damage similar to Yuta's Katana so they're amazing for PVE and PVP if you can land htem	Huecomundo From Tensa Zangetsu Seller Pay all the requirements including Zangetsu base + Defeat the Zangetsu Boss (You must be the one to spawn him)

A-Tier Swords

A-Tier	Why A-Tier?	Location
Metal Bat	• Got a buff but still can't compare to the S-Tiers due to slower M1s and lower DPS • That said the DPS is still A-Tier respectable from V and C mainly • Z and X are good for mob farming while V and C are good for bosses • You can PVP with this weapon but only via skill moves since the M1s aren't the best	Rogue Town Fruit Gacha NPC 50% chance to drop
Hellsing Dual Pistol	• The Pistols got power-crept by all the V2 swords and some of the newer weapons but they're still really good • They're a PVE powerhouse since all the moves deal great damage to bosses • I probably wouldn't use them as much in PVE since most moves have a slow frontal start-up but you'll melt bosses	Spooky Island Purchase For 25,000 Candy at the Candy Exchanger

B-Tier Swords

B-Tier	Why B-Tier?	Location
Zangetsu	• Great AOE damage and range for PVE farming and great for bosses • The moves are a bit slow for PVP though • That said it's got the most damage per move rotation	Rogue Town Zangetsu Gacha NPC
Gryphon	• Only two moves but they're really fast • Z can deal a fast burst of 10k damage with good Sword Stats and deals more damage than Dark Blade/Yoru Z • X has longer iFrames than Dark Blade X • Great for PVP due to speed and also early-mid-late game farming	Whispering Jungle Just walk straight ahead from the mob Quest NPC
Dark Blade	• I'm comparing it to Gryphon and it deals lower damage than G's Z but higher damage with X though the iFrames are shorter • The iFrames are really good to exploit in PVP but overall Dark Blade is just a little bit worse end-game than Gryphon so I put it in B • Dark Blade is still the best weapon to rush early to mid game for farming but Zangetsu and SJW Daggers are better for end-game bosses	Glacier Ice On the little ice hill next to Mihawk's Quest NPC
Wado	• A great alternative to Gryphon and Dark Blade for PVE farming but has slow M1s • The moves come out fast and deal about the same DPS but you're not locked in place with the X move so it's slightly better for PVP	Jujutsu Highschool Purchase For $1,000,000 at the Wado Seller

C-Tier Swords

C-Tier	Why C-Tier?	Location
Spiritual Katana	• In general it's weaker than the above options for PVE and PVP • That said, even for a Common the Spiritual Katana is really good for PVE grinding • And you should definitely get it because it's a prerequisite for the S-Tier Sword Yuta's Katana	Jujutsu Highschool Get from the Yuta NPC
Tanjiro's Nichirin	• Tanjiro's sword has more moves than Dark Blade and Gryphon but they are slower and more awkward to land • Still if you manage to pull out the entire rotation including the cutscene you are dealing more DPS • But in practice Dark Blade and Gryphon are better because they are faster, especially in PVP • So overall Tanjiro can sometimes be better for bosses but I wouldn't really get it since Dark Blade/Gryph are better mid-game and Tensa Zangetsu/Yuta/SJW are better late-game	Forge Isle Tanjiro's Seller

D-Tier Swords

D-Tier	Why D-Tier?	Location
Dual Katana Sword Scales With Sword	• The best early game farming tool for PVE that you should rush ASAP • Swords are the best farming tools in general and this is the first one you should get after Katana • It's really easy to get if you claim all the codes and farm a little • That said it gets out-DPS-ed by all swords later on	Sandora Island/Desert Island Between the houses and the tower near the island's port
Katana Sword Scales With Sword	• The first Sword you'll get and what you'll use to farm for Dual Katana • Everyone should start with a Katana to farm other stuff really fast and then you can respec later if you want to use Power-scaling stuff	Starting Island Near where you originally spawn

Rogue Piece Race Tier List

Image by Destructoid

The best race in Rogue Piece goes a long way to boost your DPS based on your build. You get them from Race Rerolls and for some like the Demon race you can use specific items like Muzan's Blood. The two races in S-Tier are almost equal depending on whether you're going for a Sword stat build or a Power stat build. A-Tiers are good alternatives to start the game with but late game you should always aim for S-Tiers. B-Tier are situational, C-Tier are underpowered and D are pretty much useless.

How to Get Race Rerolls: You get them from Codes, by opening Chests and from Fishing. You can get a Fishing rod from the NPC at the starting island's docks and just AFK Fish to farm Race Rerolls (See below for recommended early-mid and late-game races).

S-Tier Races

S-Tier Races	Why S-Tier	Race Stats
Demon	• Demon and Arrancar are about even with Demon being for Power stat builds and Arrancar being for Sword stat builds • That said Demon has an edge for two reasons • First: Because Combat Specs like Sukuna and Aizen scale with Power and they have the best DPS in the game • Second: If you're a Demon fighting an Arrancar, Arrancar take 25% more damage from your Power stat attacks • This means that you'll be nuking Arrancar players and overall other races with Demon if you have A Power and Sukuna/Aizen • So in short, Demon is the best race in the game even with the 2% instant-death chance	• Gains +25% HP • +25% Power stat damage multiplier • If your HP is below 25%, you have a 2% chance to instantly die • You can use the Muzan's Blood item dropped from the Akaza Boss spawned on Throne Isle via the Boss Summoner NPC for a low chance to get this race
Arrancar	• The counterpart of Demon but for Sword builds • The best part about this race besides the Sword damage boost are the dash iFrames • You get a 0.3 iFrame per dash which can be really strong to avoid some AOE moves • That said your downside is really bad against Power attacks • Still it's the best race in the game for Sword builds	• Flash Step: Your dashes have slight iFrames • Higher defense • +25% Sword stat damage multiplier • You take +25% more damage from Power stat attacks • You can use the Hogyoku item dropped from the Aizen Boss on Huecomundo for a low chance to get this race

A-Tier Races

A-Tier Races	Why A-Tier	Race Stats
Celestial Dragon	• Get this race ASAP in the early and mid-game so that you can farm faster towards late game • Once you have some high-tier gear from the tier list above, you can go for Demon or Arrancar • This is the best race in the game early to mid/late for farming	• Gains +25% Gems • Gain +25% EXP • Gain +25% Money
Cyborg	• An okay race to get since the extra HP is useful but this game favors damage more so this is just an alternative to Demon and Arrancar • That said if you don't like the debuffs, Cyborg is perfect but know that it is weaker overall • Scales really well with high Defense	• Gains +50% Health • You can use the Hardware Chip item dropped from the David Boss spawned on Throne Island via the Boss Summoner NPC for a low chance to get this race
Dracula	• Half of the time it can be really powerful for PVP and somewhat for PVE tanking • Plus you get a nice little damage boost with the Burn • That said half of the time (during day) you have no race so it's play around nighttime • Demon/Arrancar are still better overall	• Gain 20% Lifesteal healing you based on the damage you deal • Get Burn damage on attacks • Both of these effects only work at night • Alucard Blood also has a chance to give you this race which are a drop from the Alucard Boss

B-Tier Races

B-Tier Races	Why B-Tier	Race Stats
Cursed Spirit	• Besides being a requirement for the Gojo spec this is quite a situational Race • You have to kill so many bosses to reach the 1.5x damage buff each time you log in or die that it becomes tedious • Once you have it fully stacked it's pretty good but it's really only viable for PVE boss farming since you're investing so much time killing bosses • I would just use Demon or Arrancar for the instant damage boost on Swords and Powers	• Get a 0.02x damage boost each time you kill a boss stacking up to 1.5x as the cap • Reseting your character, leaving the game or dying resets the stacks • Sukuna's Finger also have chance to give you this race which are a drop from the Sukuna Boss on Throne Isle

C-Tier Races

C-Tier Races	Why C-Tier	Race Stats
Fishman	• The swimming part is useless since you'll be air-dashing everywhere anyway • The Defense boost is nice and more useful than all the races below so it's okay if you can't get anything better	• Swims faster and has higher defense

D-Tier Races

D-Tier Races	Why D-Tier	Race Stats
Mink	• Overall useless but can sometimes work in your favor for PVP dodging • That said it's not worth it and you should get a higher-tier race	• Runs faster and dashes quicker
Skypiean	• Similar to Mink where it's mostly useless but it can be good in PVP sometimes to dodge attacks or position yourself higher than your opponnet for a move • That said it's not worth it and you should get a higher-tier race	• Can use air-jump 3 extra times
Human	• No buffs	• No buffs

Rogue Piece Trait Tier List

Image by Destructoid

The best traits in Rogue Piece are much easier to determine than Swords or Specs since it's just a simple numbers game. That said damage tends to be the best stat to boost as well as cooldown since most of the game is PVE farming and it's better to kill faster than tank more damage. That's why you'll see that some Traits that boost damage or cooldowns better are placed higher. Here's what each Trait does below.

All Rogue Piece Traits Listed

Trait & Roll Chance	Effects
The Honored One (0.1%)	• 30% Decrease in Cooldown • 25% Increase in Defense • 40% Increase in Damage
All Seeing (0.1%)	• 50% Decrease in Defense. • 50% Decrease in Cooldown.
