Clair Obscur Expedition 33 : Best Verso weapon Tier list

"Confuso was indeed confusing"
10/10, GOTY

Damn, I need to get Sireso, that passive is insane. That's an A+/S tier sword

Burn build is best build😎, cheese and one shot builds arent fun imo.

For Seeram, read what End Bringer does.

A fast Verso + Seeram + End Bringer = permanently stunlocked enemy after a break

I put Simoso F tier, why ? Because the PS5 can handle his power ! The more i use this weapon, the more i lose framerate fights after fights... it's the only weapon that do that. At first i thought it was the locations, but no...i stop farming luminas with this weapon. Simoso on PS5 not really usable for know. F tiers untill a patch ! ^__^'

Contorso is 100% my favorite, I love having auto death and auto bomb and break on death and then using sniper to break the enemy with contorso, get s rank and spam free aim shots to do follow up, my personal favorite build 🔥

I actually kinda prefer confuso over corpeso, like u may not be able to get as many burn stacks as corpeso, but it scales off of better stats, and I can apply burn with a cleaner gameplay loop using free aim shots and skills.

I’d actually like to see a tier list on sciel or lune’s weapons as there’s more parity there or more build dependent while for verso, the contorso is pretty much the clear cut winner. Max crit allows that weapon to take verso to solo Simon

I really wish the simoso had a better 3rd perk. Not dying at rank A is the most useless passive for that late in the game. I really wish it interacted with low health by making it so you gain an additional ethereal sword on skills when below 30% health, and maybe grant a flat damage buff possibly? maybe like 2% damage for ever 1% of max health missing? idk, just make this sword broken. I had to work my ass off to get it.

Corpeso and Chevalam are the two best verso weapons and it's not even close. I played a burn team with Verso Maelle and Lune and ho boys that poor Simon didn't get time to erase my team.

agility is only good until you get cheater, pictos for auto first turn, turn after revive, turn after getting low hp, that's enough to kill every enemy in this game

Can you do Sciel next please? :D

strictly for end game, i think corpeso is just A tier, burn is cool and all but the time u build it up, with any weapons (higher power the better) that gets u S tier turn 1 is just better (Tireso for me being S tier just cuz of those 2 criterias since with just that u can 1/2turn simon solo verso)

not to be that guy, but you left out the baguette which is a fun weapon for a support verso (void dmg is good, scaling is def/agi, and basically getting auto death, second chance, and revive paradox for free to trigger all the on death/revive pictos)

Is it just me or does having cheater on automatically five your enemy two turns back to back..............i put cheater on when i got it and at first im like this pictos is broken but then i noticed during 3 enemy boss fights they all go two turns and even during single enemy fights they get 4 turns also so what is really the point of having cheater if it effectively doesnt do anything but give me my turns back to back but then i have to sit through the enemys two turns in a row also so if thats 3 enemys and you have cheater equipped you will have to go six plays in a row on defense 3 enemys two turns each so what is the point of cheater honestly can anyone tell me i feel like i should get my two turns in a row then they do their one turn and then its my turn again hence the name being cheater.........also where does tireso come from i havent found it yet

playing with contorso: cheater actually only works in the first round, not after reviving with revive paradox. So you should equip sniper to break target on first free aimed shot to get to gradient 3 within 1 turn of spamming free aimed shots

Verso loses rank per enemy turn not per enemy hit. So if an enemy has a 7 hit combo and you were rank S you drop to A but survive the rest of the combo.

But if the enemy gets to go again or you are fighting multiple and they get a turn one after the other, each turn can lower the rank.

Edit: this is in regards to simoso

Simon sword is OP if you do a stun build, focused on using omega to keep the enemy stunned for longer, keep Verso on rank A, lose the immortality passive, but it's ok, because the damage you do with that extra hit... Easily 50M, you can literally double tap Simon on ng+

Who’s everyone’s favourite for a third on a burn build? Maelle is probably a must, but I can’t pick a third

The "20% instead of 100% chance to burn" argument shaky to me considering... Burning shots is right there. It's literally a free burning shots on Simoso that you can stack it with. It's why the free aim-Fueling break-follow up-sniper build is laughably effective.

The startling regularity you get more than 10 free aim shots each turn combined with the amount of burn synergy pictos and AP gen pictos means you can just chuck knives at the enemy then a double damage follow up.

That coupled with not knowing ranks can only decrease once every turn, (so it could be 1000 hits, as long as it's one turn, you just build it back up on your turn and be immortal.) just means you wildly underrated Simoso because you didn't seem to do more testing than theoreticals.

[Edits: also, on abysseram missing how bad the first skill is. "+50% on D rank, but NO DAMAGE INCREASE on OTHER ranks. Which means once you gain 3 perfection, you're using sakaram with extra steps.]

I don't think sireso should be S for the soul reason of promoting the most boring way to play the game if its used like that.

Video is good, but title is probably a bit misleading. This is an endgame verso weapon tierlist, that is not applicable to amy other stage of the game.
Not wrong per se, but i think that should be clarified, as this tier list will not only be of no use for someone starting to use verso on act 2, but it will make them think some of the weapons that are good in those early stages are bad because they don't have as much endgame potential as other options (which he probably doesnt have yet, and they're for a stage of the game he hasnt reached yet anyway)

Ill have to try using verso in a playthrough, atm im not

Can't see the names of the weapons once you put them in the tears so this video is basically useless

Blodham all the way. One turned simon without sciel. I set maelle up and she didnt even get to go 😂

There’s Contorso and then everything else.

I am in act 2 going to see Monoco. What weapon do you recommend me to use?

Literally talking about blodam mentioning it as budget then explaining every way it is better Chevelam and still saying it is budget is beyond me. Higher base good scaling immediate s rank. No downsides of not having shields. Blodam is pretty much better in every way from Chevelam. The fact that you are paper with chevelam and with blodam you can have 9+ shields should be reason enough.

I think demonam should go up to C at least because it's got S tier agility and 50% damage boost even if vice versa. Great video though will subscribe for more weapons tier lists

Contorso with breaking death = machine gun verso

This list, I like! Another!

You can act more than twice in a row. I do it all the time.

I disagree with blodam being under chevalam, with chevalam you get 100% bonus after 5 turns of no hits (I'm not that good lol) but it restricts you from using the pictos that gives 10% more damage per shield. Blodam only has 20% to light skills (almost all I use on him anyways) and that's far from 100% more damage, but you can add the shield pictos and with 8 shields is the same as chevalam while any more than 8 means more damage. Oh and blodam always starts in S rank if you keep low health like you would anyways. I'd call them both S tier when heavily built into.

Actually according to comment in the wiki about Sireso one thing to note is that apparently the Powerfull buff overrides the Sireso bonus, meaning if you use Powerfull buff the Sireso bonus isn't applied not sure if this is a bug as a result for it to be more important than powerfull you need Verso at least in Rank A.

I'd also like to add for Corpeso that it's fire elemental meaning you can use Maelle ability that makes target weak to Fire (if they aren't already of course) and suddenly all of Verso's Aim Shot, base Attack and Skill that use weapon element will get a 50% damage increase.

I would actually say 1 negative about Chevalam, not gaining Shield means you cannot take advantage of the Luminas Powerfull Shield and Shield Affinity, both of them with In Media Res Picto basically give you 60% damage increase right from the start, and a max of 120% if you decide to stack even more Shields on Verso so that bonus which you cannot have with Chevalam actually can surpass Chevalam 20% damage increase per consecutive turn, Blodam is really great for this just use 1 Overcharge in a battle you then can just not heal him and so he will always start the following battles at S Rank with In Media Res, Powerfull Shield and Shield Affinity meaning he will start with the +200% damage from Rank S and another 60% damage increase from the Shields pictos right from the start of the fight..... In fact I would actually rate Blodam S Tier because of that the ONLY fight where this advantage over Chevalam doesn't matter is Simon cause of his stealing Shield mechanic, against any other fights this is just straight up better than Chevalam IMO.

Also one big use for the Seeram weapon that might actually propulsate it in S Tier, is with the End Bringer skill, End Bringer at A Rank allow to reapply break and with Seeram you will never get to S Rank meaning you are stuck at A Rank meaning you can stunlock to death EVERY single fight you just need to inflict the first break and enough Speed and ways to substain the AP.

Youre wrong about counterattack weapons. If youre trying to do a parry only play style youre obviously going to mess up sometimes. Defensive featues on parry weapons is very nice. And the 50% damage bonus is really din on a parry only run.

I really like contorso but the eyeballs all over it gross me out. lol

I was using Delaram during early act 2, it was great to one shot mobs using perfect break on 1st turn (5AP instead of 7AP) + powerful. If the mob i hit with PB is weak instant S rank also on first turn so clearing mobs was very easy :)

I’m gonna test it, but Sakaram can actually do really good damage if you pack on the right Luminas.. obviously all the base attack ones.

Start the turn with one free aim shot to gain an extra 50% damage on the turn, than base attack for 4 hits (I think you end up doing like 150-200% extra damage per hit. And Use A/S Rank skills as well.

Can also stack on buffs and rebuffs with basic attacks which does even more overall damage for you and the party

U did nosaram dirty. It literally scales one of his moves. Pair it with the passive to sometimes gain ap from shooting you become the true machine gunner. I had no problems with Simon because of that sword. Put burning mark on him too and it setup Miealle to to massive damage. Really a shame u put it that low.

You massively underrate Confuso. It applies almost as much burn as Corpeso with a 100% crit build, while allowing Verso to actually use his skills. The light damage skills even add more burn while doing their own damage. Follow Up for ST / Phantom Stars for AOE. Or Light Holder if you need to rank up.

The Easter egg that is confuso makes me love it. It could have -50% damage id still use it same with the girl shes got rukia sword. Who needs monsters katana when i can get a zanpakto.!!!

Simoso's passive is amazing, you don't lose 1 rank per hit but per turn, so if you're fighting 1 enemy and said enemy has 1 turn with 20 attack combo you can't die. Only an enemy that has 2 turns in a row or more enemies can kill Verso once you get to rank S.

Corpeso into burning canvas deletes everything for me. If they have fire resistance, I switch to Confuso for similar results.

Simoso's first passive literally doubles your skill damage. Guess where the highest damage a character can deal comes from? Skills. That alone puts it in its own tier, above anything else. Plus free burn chance on every single instance of damage you deal (that stacks on free aim with Burning Shots). Plus immortality, unless you get hit multiple turns (turns, not times) in a row. The only sound argument against it is that it's locked behind the hardest challenge in the game, so by the time you get it it has no worth unless you plan to use it on NG+.

I agree with most placements otherwise.
