Verse Piece Trait Tier List
This tier list ranks all the traits in Verse Piece from highest to lowest based on their effectiveness in boosting damage and overall stats. Generally, traits providing a higher damage multiplier yield greater DPS than simple flat bonuses to Special and Sword stats. Defensive bonuses are significantly more powerful when paired with certain races like Contractor.
How Do Verse Piece Traits Work?
In Verse Piece, traits amplify your damage regardless of which Weapon, Spec, or Fruit you choose. The effect gets even better with the right trait passives. Most traits also enhance various stats. For example, some grant titles like Honored One, while others like Zenin and Heavenly Restriction assist in acquiring powerful weapons.

How to Get Traits in Verse Piece
Rerolling traits in Verse Piece is as simple as paying five gems to the Traits Reroll NPC, located on Frost Town island. There’s a handy safety feature that asks for your confirmation before rerolling any Legendary, Mythic, or Exotic traits. You can keep track of your current traits, damage multiplier, and stat bonuses in your character menu.
How to Store Traits in Verse Piece?
If you want to keep a trait for future use, save it in your trait storage. To unlock storage slots, you’ll need to use the Trait Storage material.
You can purchase trait storage from the Adventure Shop on Merchant Island or trade for it. Having at least one trait storage slot is great for saving traits before you reroll.
Verse Piece Trait Progression
As you start your journey in Verse Piece, traits like God-Like or Spiritual are ideal for boosting your stats early on. In the mid-game, aim for Zenin and Heavenly Restriction to boost damage and snag legendary-tier weapons. Eventually, chase Mythic and Exotic traits to remain competitive.
The Honored One stands out as the best Mythic trait because of its title, while Rage Revenge provides a bump in damage. For end-game goals, focus on Monarch, Rejected Zenin, and Betrayer as they are the cream of the crop in Verse Piece.
