Ultimate Legacy Piece Tier List: Best Swords, Styles & Abilities

The server went quiet for a beat, then my Undyne build deleted a raid boss before I could blink. I stood there, inventory open, and felt a familiar sting: the meta had moved again. You are about to cut through that noise.

I’ve ranked every Sword, Ability, and Style so you don’t waste hours testing. I’ll tell you which pieces win in PvP, which ones crush bosses, and where the obvious power creep hides. Updates roll in like a rising tide, so I mark what’s current and what’s past its prime.

For a full checklist of every item and its unlock method, see my complete Legacy Piece tier list and guide. For step-by-step acquisition notes, check the official Trello for Legacy Piece.

Every update pushes the goalposts forward. – Legacy Piece Sword Tier List

As with most Piece RPGs, the newest drops tend to carry the best numbers. I weigh PvP and PvE, and I grade each sword against Styles and Abilities so you can mix a hybrid build that actually wins. Think of your build as a Swiss Army knife: one wrong pick and an entire rotation falls apart.

S-Tier Swords

Sword/Weapon	Ranking Notes
Undyne	• The base version competes with the Metas but Undying Determination mode just pushes you past all other weapons• The mode unlocks massive nukes and overall buffs your damage and damage reduction which skyrockets your DPS• The damage reduction buff is really strong for all modes especially PVP• And also most of the moves are really fast with the spear summons being a really quick cast
Solem Lament	• At the bottom of the top 5 specs in the entire game in terms of DPS and competes decently with both Undyne and SSS-Tier styles and abilities• You can get a lot of extra damage buffs and even shields from the special passive and the defense penetration helps with tanky specs in PVP like Undyne
True Zangetsu (Bankai)	• A worthwhile V2 for Zangetsu that just gives you a bunch of AOE burst damage attacks but also a single target nuke for bosses and PVP• A top 3 weapon but also competes really weapon with all specs in the game overall
White Reaper	• White Reaper is a solid weapon overall but I put it slightly lower in the S-Tier because of its jump move that’s a bit awkward in rotations• Still it’s a Meta sword that competes well with some top-tier styles like Abyssal Karate and Star Platinum
Acherin	• On the lower end of Meta, perhaps Sub-Meta today with the latest specs being huge power creep• Still it has really good DPS, some nice DoTs and tears through resistances with both true damage and the resistance reduction• You also have a nice mobility move for PVP utility

A-Tier Swords

Sword/Weapon	Ranking Notes
Geburo	• Geburo got powercrept but it still deals impressive damage for the mid-to-late game• That said I still use it as a support weapon due to its passive damage buffs and the lifesteal effect
Chihora	• Similar to Geburo where it’s decent sub-Meta DPS but also a great off-weapon to have as support to boost your rotation’s damage with its Enten buff
Cursed Love	• Not the best damage when compared to styles and abilities but in terms of sword damage it still holds up• Plus it’s really fun to play with the Rika Zone to buff your Z, X and C moves

B-Tier Swords

Sword/Weapon	Ranking Notes
War General	• Not a lot of utility here but it’s great damage for the mid-game• Falls off later though due to a lack of scaling and support potential
The Black Knight	• The opposite of War General where you get decent damage but also great utility since it increases your main weapon damage rotation with its passive support buff
The Mindmaster	• Decent DPS and CC effects
Lightspeed Ninja	• Better DPS than Mindmaster but I still think Black Knight is better at this point in the game due to its support effect• Quite a fast weapon due to its CD boost with the passive and also C for some mobility

C-Tier Swords

Sword/Weapon	Ranking Notes
First Espada	• Simply powercrept with low DPS due to less moves than other weapons
Thunder	• Similar case as with First Espada, the lower number of moves than other weapons killed Thunder

Every ability shapes how your build behaves in fights. – Legacy Piece Ability Tier List

Abilities can change how you think about a fight: burst windows, sustain, or team support. I rank raw DPS and note who brings utility for squads. If you use Discord or YouTube guides, focus on Araya and Procurator for damage and Benimaro or Cursed King for support.

How to Get Each Ability: For instructions on how to unlock each ability, check out the official Trello for Legacy Piece.

S-Tier Abilities

Ability	Ranking Notes
Araya	• Massive damage from both the skill rotation but also the afterimage follow-ups• Huge crit damage bursts that make Araya the best overall spec in the entire game outdamaging every other Ability, Sword and Style
Procurator	• Really fun and complex to play with due to the special passive• Offers a lot of RAW DPS but requires a bit of time to master the phases which can outdamage even Araya• Along with Araya this is the highest damage moveset in Legacy Piece• I recommend going for Araya if you want a simple meta DPS and going for Procurator if you want a more interactive moveset that has a learning curve and can potentially be #1 among all specs

A-Tier Abilities

Ability	Ranking Notes
Benimaro	• Even though Benimaro falls behind Araya and Procurator in terms of DPS it’s still a Meta ability• It outputs impressive Sub-Meta damage but the main power comes from the passive aura which you can proc for an ability damage buff
Shinru	• Similar case as with Benimaro where Shinru is much weaker than Procurator and Araya as well as other Meta specs, but you get a supporting teleport ability every 20th hit while Adolla Link is active• This is great to combo with less mobile specs

B-Tier Abilities

Ability	Ranking Notes
Limitless Vessel	• Great off-Meta pick for the mid-game due to decent AOE damage but also crowd control with the pulls• The guaranteed crits from blackflash help with mid-game bosses
Jane Julliet	• Can be potentially better than Limitless Vessel if you proc the passive which is hard to do at 5% on Z and X• If you do, you get massive AOE DPS multihits• A bit unreliable to be in a higher tier
Storm Esper	• On the lower end of DPS when compared to both Abilities and other specs but still has decent AOE damage• Plus you get flight which is nice utility

C-Tier Abilities

Ability	Ranking Notes
Cursed King	• The DPS is not the best here but you want Cursed King for the passive that supports your DPS and increases your overall damage with other Meta specs
First Hero	• The worst power in the game in terms of DPS not accounting Fruits which are starters• That said, overall, it’s better than Destructive Moon and Brawler for the early game but I wouldn’t invest a lot into it

Run a quick session in a public server and you’ll see what players bring. – Legacy Piece Style Tier List

Styles are where choices either make your rotation sing or leave you spamming the same button. I ranked pure DPS, utility like time stop, and team buffs. If you use community tools such as Roblox Studio to test combos or follow creators on YouTube, TWOH and Abyssal Karate should be on your radar.

How to Get Each Style: For instructions on how to unlock each style, check out the official Trello for Legacy Piece.

S-Tier Styles

Styles	Ranking Notes
The World (Over Heaven)	• The highest DPS moveset in the game along with Araya/Procurator abilities and Undyne weapon• That said TWOH might be the most useful moveset in the game overall since it has both a timestop and powerful damage buffs• Whatever build you’re going for whether its Style, Weapon or Ability, I’d make sure to get TWOH for amazing utility or you can main it for massive damage
Abyssal Karate	• Excellent damage and a ton of different mix-ups• All of this is boosted damage-wise by the shark attack follow ups• Second-best style in the game and competes really well with other meta movesets overall
Star Platinum	• The third best style in the game damage-wise and like AK competes with other movesets in the Meta tier• Also, Star Platinum offers a ton of utility because you have access to Time Stop• You also get a ton of pressure with the passive attacks from Star Platinum when you hit or get hit

A-Tier Styles

Styles	Ranking Notes
Hollow Flame	• Hollow Flame mixes sub-Meta DPS with a few damage buffs that are useful to bring as support in any loadout
The World (Base Version)	• The World has one of the better Time Stops which brings excellent utility when its brought as a secondary moveset to a build• It deals decent damage too if you main it but it falls behind Star Platinum and higher-ranked styles

B-Tier Styles

Styles	Ranking Notes
One Eyed Ghoul	• Just an overall decent middle-of-the-road moveset with impressive DPS that’s lower than the ones above but higher than the ones below• That said, while you can main OEG and be happy DPS-wise, it doesn’t have a lot of utility that other higher-ranked styles bring

C-Tier Styles

Styles

Ranking Notes

Hero HunterSaiyanDestructive MoonScraper Brawler

• All four of these movesets are on the lower end of DPS when it comes to Styles and all movesets overall• They’re good early-to-mid-game but start falling off• However, they’re incredibly useful as support movesets due to their passive buffs• Hero Hunter and Saiyan have the best ones that I highly recommend you get even if you’re not going for styles, especially Saiyan since it’s so easy to get and you get a free damage boost

What is the best sword in Legacy Piece?

Undyne sits above the rest right now thanks to Undying Determination mode. If you main PvP or need survivability, Undyne’s damage reduction and burst combo are the fastest route to wins.

Which ability should I use for PvP?

Araya for raw burst and Procurator if you want a higher skill ceiling with potential to outpace Araya. Benimaro is the support pick if your build needs an aura buff.

Which style gives the biggest DPS boost?

The World (Over Heaven) is the most flexible damage and utility package—time stop plus strong buff windows makes it the play for both solo and team comps.

Quick tips: use the official Trello and community Discord to track spawns and nerf notes. Watch creators on YouTube for rotation clips, and run tests in Roblox Studio before you invest time into grinding a weapon.

That’s the list—pick one path and master it, or split your loadout for hybrid pressure. Which side of the meta are you betting on?
