Ultimate Absolvement Race Tier List and Guide
Roblox Absolvement races are relatively balanced against each other and all of them can be good. However, there are still more flexible and better race options for a wider variety of builds and some just offer better buffs or more forgiving debuffs. Here's my Absolvement race tier list and guide. Table of contents All Absolvement Races Ranked S-Tier Absolvement Races A-Tier Absolvement Races B-Tier Absolvement Races C-Tier Absolvement Races Best Race in Absolvement - Quick Guide How to Change Race in Absolvement All Absolvement Races Ranked Image via Destructoid Since the testing period, Roblox Absolvement race usefulness and power is determined by how flexible and powerful their buffs are for different builds. Also, how forgiving or negligible their debuffs are. They are mostly balanced out on paper, but in reality some are just better for a wider variety of builds. That's why I personally don't prefer Harmonite because you can't make interesting builds around them since they're a jack-of-all-trades master-of-none. Let's dive into ranking explanations and mini-guides for each race. S-Tier Absolvement Races Race Ranking Explanation Race Stats Cragg Cragg is universally the most useful race in the game for raw defense without any experience needed. They don't deal the most damage since they don't have Skill specific damage boosts but you won't have to worry much about your HP. The walkspeed and mana regen debuffs make kiting harder but not game breaking. Overall, you'll always be pretty happy with Cragg on all builds unless you're going Poison or Shadow (Check A-Tier if you are). Buffs:• +12.5% Max Health• +10% Global Damage ResistanceDebuffs:• –10% Mana Regeneration Speed• –15% Walk speed Katiyr Speaking of kiting, Katiyr are the best at it so this is also another form of defense. Their movement speed buff and lower roll cooldowns make them perfect for players who struggle to kite. Like Cragg they're useful for any build and this flexibility and power buffs make them S-Tier. The lower resistances are almost neglibile. Buffs• +15% Walk speed• +20% Faster Roll CooldownDebuffs:• –15% Water Resistance• –10% Disease Resistance Facade Facade are S-Tier only if you're tanking and are skilled at avoiding other damage types apart from the one you're tanking. You can reach up to 50% damage reduction from a single element but if another damage type hits you, you take more damage. If you can master tanking then Facade are one of the most powerful races in the game. • Buffs:• +15% Holy Damage• When you take damage from a single damage type, take progressively less damage from that type (Up to 50%) Debuffs:• When your damage reduction buff is active, if you take damage from another damage type, you take 10% more damage from that new damage type• +10% Skill Cooldown Time A-Tier Absolvement Races Race Ranking Explanation Race Stats Voidtouched The A-Tier is mostly about powerful races with specific builds and we start of with the best race for a Shadow skill build, the Voidtouched. These guys are a sort of glass cannon with Shadow damage and the Mana Cost reduction makes low-cost skills amazing for spamming. One of the two best damage races in the game. Buffs:• +20% Shadow Damage• –1 Mana Cost of Skills• +8% Crit DamageDebuffs:• –10% Max Health Aranae Aranae are similar to Void Touched and also quite powerful but they're all about Poison damage with increased attack speed. They're also kind of like glass cannons since you'll have to watch out for stuns since they last longer on you. Overall, Voidtouched and Aranae are the same power level and potential with their respective Skill trees. One of the two best damage races in the game. Buffs:• +20% Poison Damage• +10% Attack SpeedDebuffs:• –2.5% Global Damage Resistance• Stuns on you last 25% longer Gelidium While you do take more damage from Fire, you have amazing kiting potential since you slow down enemies that hit you. Plus that stun reduction is amazing in the mid to late game. More of a defensive option whereas Voidtouched and Aranae are more offensive. That said, Cragg and Facade are better defensive options. Buffs:• –25% Stun Duration• When you take damage from an enemy, they lose 30% of their movement speed for 5 secondsDebuffs:• –25% Fire Resistance• –5% Global Damage Dealt B-Tier Absolvement Races Race Ranking Explanation Race Stats Calvar Calvar are the best race in the game against damage-over-time effects but that's quite situational and not as powerful as you think. Still, it's a nice defensive buff but if we're talking B-Tier races I prefer Kix'xm. Buffs:• +30% Disease Resistance• +30% Poison Resistance• +30% Bleed Resistance Debuffs:• –15% Regeneration Speed• –5% Global Healing Received Kix'xm One of the best support-oriented races since that Mana Regeneration speed goes a long way for healing and support skills. It's also universally pretty decent for all builds so it's my favorite B-Tier

B-Tier Absolvement Races
| Race | Ranking Explanation | Race Stats |
|---|---|---|
 Calvar | Calvar are the best race in the game against damage-over-time effects but that's quite situational and not as powerful as you think.

 Kix'xm | One of the best support-oriented races since that Mana Regeneration speed goes a long way for healing and support skills. It's also universally pretty decent for all builds so it's my favorite B-Tier race and I might put it in A-Tier if it had just one more universal buff. | Buffs: • +15% Mana Regeneration Speed • +20% Nature Resistance Debuffs: • –10% Fire and Frost Resistance • Debuffs on you last 25% longer |
 Feriun | The increase to your mana pool is pretty good but overall the race is quite niche and doesn't offer anything noteworthy besides being able to cast a few more cheaper skills while at max mana. | Buffs: • +25% Fire Resistance • +7 Mana Debuffs: • –25% Frost Resistance • –10% Holy Resistance |
C-Tier Absolvement Races
| Race | Ranking Explanation | Race Stats |
|---|---|---|
 Harmonite | Harmonite is by no means a weak race to play. The fact that you get no debuffs is a buff in itself. I just put it in C-Tier because they don't have any potential for great DPS of utility builds since they're bland. If you like oatmeal by all means go ahead but Harmonite isn't a master of anything and therefore turns out pretty mid. | • No debuffs • No buffs |
Best Race in Absolvement - Quick Guide
Above we go in detail for every race in Absolvement but if you just want a quick run down of the best races here's one:
- Best races for damage: Voidtouched (Shadow) and Aranae (Poison).
- Best race for defense: Cragg and Facadae.

How to Change Race in Absolvement
Unfortunately, you cannot change your race in Absolvement after character creation. Once you lock in your choice when making your character for each slot, you cannot change it in-game. That's why I would consider the tier list above and all the race options depending on what you want to build. If you want to build Shadow go Voidtouched, for Poison go Aranae, for general usefulness go Cragg or Katiyr, etc.
That's it for our Absolvement Race tier list and guide. Stay tuned to our Absolvement Codes page for upcoming free goodies on launch.
