Broken Blade Tier List (June 2026): Best Races, Elements, and Blessings

All Things How June 4, 2026
Source

Power in Broken Blade comes from stacking the right race, element, and blessing on top of your weapon style. Each one multiplies your damage, so a strong combination clears mobs and bosses several times faster than a weak roll. The rankings below cover what is worth keeping and what you should reroll once you unlock the systems.

โš”๏ธ

Quick answer: Roll for Aesir (race), Thunder (element), and Odin (blessing). Pair them with a crit-focused build and your weapon style of choice for the highest endgame damage.


Broken Blade race tier list

Races act as your character class and grant passive bonuses. You obtain new ones through the reroll system, and the best of them stack a huge flat damage boost with crit and weapon-specific scaling. Aesir (also written as Asura in some listings) sits alone at the top because it raises nearly every offensive stat at once.

Tier Race Rarity Key bonuses
S Aesir Mythical +75% Damage, +10% Crit Chance, +100% Crit Damage, +5% Attack Speed
A Elf Legendary +75% Damage, +25% Sword Damage
A Vanir Legendary +75% Damage, +25% Katana Damage
A Nether Legendary +75% Damage, +25% Buster Damage
B Frost Epic +50% Damage, +20% Damage Reduction
B Flame Epic +50% Damage, +50% Health
C Giant Rare +10% Damage Reduction, +5% Life Steal
C Dwarves Uncommon +30% Health
D Human Common +10% Health

Aesir is extremely rare, with a drop rate near 0.03%. The legendary trio is the realistic target for most players, and the choice depends on your weapon. Elf scales Sword damage, Vanir scales Katana damage, and Nether scales Buster damage. Match the race to the weapon style you actually use.


Broken Blade element tier list

Elements work like races and add another rerollable damage layer. Thunder is the standout because its crit damage bonus multiplies everything a crit build already produces. Fire is the best raw-damage option while you wait for a Thunder roll.

Tier Element Rarity Effect
S Thunder Mythical +50% Crit Damage
A Fire Legendary +50% Damage
A Wind Epic +15% Attack Speed
B Life Rare +3% Life Steal
B Water Uncommon +1.0 Energy Recovery per second
C Earth Common +10% Damage Reduction

Wind earns its place on speed-heavy or slower weapons since faster swings mean more crits over time. Life and Water are sustain and utility picks for underleveled gear. Earth is a defensive filler you should replace once you can roll for something offensive.


Broken Blade blessing tier list

Blessings are the third build layer and carry the largest single damage numbers in the game. Odin leads with a +200% Damage bonus plus crit and attack speed, while Jormungandr is close behind with strong all-around stats and added survivability. All mythical blessings share an extremely low drop rate around 0.0085%.

Tier Blessing Rarity Key bonuses
SS Odin Mythical +200% Damage, +75% Crit Damage, +25% Buster Damage, +12% Attack Speed
SS Jormungandr Mythical +175% Damage, +70% Crit Damage, +12% Attack Speed, +10% Damage Reduction
S Hel Mythical +125% Damage, +75% Crit Damage, +25% Buster Damage, +60% Heal
S Surtr Mythical +100% Damage, +25% Buster Damage, +12% Attack Speed
S Fenrir Mythical +15% Damage, +8% Crit Chance, +25% Buster Damage, +8% Life Steal
S Thor Legendary +70% Damage, +20% Buster Damage, +50% Crit Damage
A Loki Legendary +65% Damage, +8% Attack Speed
A Heimdall Legendary +55% Damage, +7% Crit Chance, +20% Crit Damage
A Tyr Legendary +60% Damage, +6% Life Steal, +8% Crit Damage
A Freyja Legendary +50% Damage, +8% Damage Reduction, +20% Health
B Njord, Freyr, Frigg, Baldr, Vidar Epic / Rare +25% to +40% Damage with minor utility
C Eir, Vali, Valkyrie, Einherjar Rare / Uncommon +15% to +23% Damage
D Light, Dark Common +5% to +7% Damage

Odin and Jormungandr are the dream rolls, but Hel, Surtr, Fenrir, and Thor are strong fallbacks when the top two refuse to drop. Keep any legendary blessing rather than running a common one.


Best weapon style and weapons

There are three weapon styles, and they shape which race you want. Sword covers a wide area and manages energy well, making it the easiest option for clearing mobs and leveling. Katana hits hardest against single targets and shines in boss fights. Buster is balanced but currently lags behind the other two in most content.

Style Strength Best paired race
Sword Crowd control, general farming Elf
Katana High single-target boss damage Vanir
Buster Balanced, weaker right now Nether

For forged weapons, the Celestial Greatsword is the top all-rounder thanks to high base attack, smooth swing speed, and a magic bolt on full-charge swings. The Voidfang Blade trades raw power for the fastest combos and built-in lifesteal on crits. The Stormcaller Bow is the best ranged option for safe crowd control, while the Frostbite Katana adds a freeze effect that makes enemies take more damage.


How to reroll races, elements, and blessings

You cannot reroll anything from the start. The systems unlock at fixed levels and use items farmed from specific bosses.

Step 1: Reach level 500 to unlock race and element rerolls. Farm the Nivaron boss for Race Reroll items and the Velik boss for Element Rerolls.

Step 2: Reach level 1,000 to unlock blessing rerolls. Farm the Gelaros boss to collect blessing reroll items.

Step 3: Spend rerolls in batches rather than all at once. Drop rates favor commons heavily, so farm a stock of items first, then roll until you land an S-tier option.

๐Ÿ€

The Luck stat increases boss drop rates, so building Luck before long reroll sessions improves your odds of hitting rare races, elements, and blessings.


Recommended builds by stage

Your ideal setup shifts as you level. Early on, survivability and steady leveling matter more than chasing mythicals you cannot yet roll.

Stage Style Element Race Blessing
Early (1โ€“500) Sword Fire or Life Elf or Flame if lucky None yet
Mid (500โ€“2,000+) Katana or Sword Fire or Wind Vanir or Elf Early legendary
Late / Endgame Sword for versatility Thunder Aesir Odin or Fenrir

In the endgame, stack crit damage and raw damage together and use the Dragon Slayer reforging path from the Eclipse update. Learn the parry timing on the F key to survive tougher bosses while you push Boss Rush for materials and more reroll items. These rankings reflect the current meta and can shift after balance updates, so check your own numbers in-game when a new patch lands.
