![The Definitive Rune Slayer Species Tier List [TUNDRA & BEACH EXPANSION]](https://histream.ir/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/Rune-Slayer-Tier-List-updated-Species.png)
Updated on 20.6.2025. Added new species and changed order of existing ones on the tier list.
When you create your first character in Rune Slayer, you will automatically be given a random race. While you can’t change this race (without paying Robux), it’s still important to know what each race is good or bad at. To help you decide if you need to reroll, here is our Rune Slayer Race Tier list.

Race Tier List in Rune Slayer
Before we begin, we want to make one thing clear: Races don’t mean much in the grand scheme of things. Even if you pull the worst race on this list, you can still play any class and be just as effective as someone who got the best race. Races are mostly for those who want to mid-max or those who want to look different. So, unless you are after a specific race or just want to look cooler, don’t stress too much over with race you get.
S-Tier
| Race name | Stats | Info | Chance to roll |
 Dullahan |
+25% Robustness +25% Cold Resistance -20% Holy Resistance |
Dullahans are undead creatures with the power to leech life and reap souls. Their build makes them very resilient to attacks (just like a Half-Golems), while their passive and active abilities let them heal when killing enemies. They also have a chance of summoning a spectral Grim Reaper scythe, which tears down enemies. | 2% |
 Infernim |
HellBorn Passive Wall Climb Passive +10% Fire Resistance +1 Luck -5% Holy Resistance Additional passives based on the number of horns |
Infernals are so powerful and evil that you won’t be able to join the Holy Sect. With their passives, they can summon Hellfire no matter which class they play. Depening on how many horns they have, they also get additional bonuses like extra Speed or even a better Fire Attack. |
1% |
A-Tier
| Race name | Stats | Info | Chance to roll |
 Bunny |
Bunny Dash Bunny Jump Carrot Summoning |
As a Bunny you can dash further and jump higher. These already make you better than other races and will help you win fights. The Carrot Summoning is nice, but you shouldn’t rely on it, unless you have no other choice. |
4,41% |
 Seraphim |
-5% Fire Resistance +10% Holy Resistance +1 Luck Additional passives based on the number of wings |
As a creature of pure good, you have more luck, and become unable to join the Demon Sect. You also get a passive based on the number of wings you have. Unfortunately, that’s where it becomes clear that Seraphim justn’t aren’t as good as the Infernim. You don’t get any cool attacks, you can’t fly, you just have a bit more luck, and wings that look cool. |
1% |
 Ailuran |
+8% Speed Boost +10% Fire Resistance +25% Cold and Heat Resistance +25% Jump Height +15% Fall Damage Reduction |
Obviously, we had to put the Ailuran here because of their cute cat ears. Kidding aside, Ailuran move faster and jump higher than any other race in this game. This alone gives them a huge advantage when it comes to exploration and getting out of trouble quickly. | 7,143% |
 Vampire |
-15% on all stats during the day +20% on all stats during the Night You take 5% more damage from Holy attacks +1 Extra Luck You heal if you take bleed damage You heal 50% of your health if you cause bleed damage to your opponent |
Vampires are cool, and you can even become one without rerolling your race, however, they are only cool during the night, and it’s not always night in Rune Slayer. If you can live with this, you’re going to love being a Vampire. |
2% |
B-Tier
| Race name | Stats | Info | Chance to roll |
 Chiroptran |
-5% Wind resistance +5% Holy Attack -5% Holy Resistance Chiroptran Roar ability |
Chiroptrans are interesting. They are like demons, but not really. They attack with Holy magic but can also bite like vampires. Regardless, they look cool and they are a fun and useful race to play as. |
7,143% |
 Slime |
-7,5% Magic Resistance -7,5% Fire Resistance +25% Immunity |
At first, slimes don’t seem that special. They are weak to magic and fire, and they don’t have any special defensive stats. However, when struck, Slime players can spawn smaller Slimes to fight for them, and can use a part of themselves to hit an opponent (works in a pinch). As a bonus, Slimes are super immune to status ailments. | 5,294% |
 Half Golem |
-5% Movement Speed +5% Damage Reduction +10 Maximum Weight +25% Robustness |
As you can imagine, Half Golems are extremely resilient. They also take a bit less damage and can carry more items. The caveat is that they move a bit slower than all other races. | 5,294% |
 Amphibu |
Swim Boost 35 Additional Race passives |
At first, the Amphibu may seem useless with their Swim Speed, but once you unlock their Racial passives, they become a lot more reliable. The racial passives can give them things like higher jump, a speed boost, and even a small attack buff. You are also free to pick which one you want. |
10,714% |
C-Tier
| Race name | Stats | Info | Chance to roll |
 Ghoul |
+5% Magic Attack Ghoulish Gall ability Additional Racial boosts |
As a Ghoul you can attack better with Magic Attacks and you have a sneak attack, called Ghoulish Gall which can give you a jump start in a fight. You also get one of three Racial Upgrades which can give you a few minor stat boosts. |
14,25% |
 Human |
When under 50% Health, gain: +15% Damage Increase +15% Damage Reduction |
Humans have the ability to gain an increase in their damage output and take reduced damage if they have less than half a health bar. Otherwise, Humans can manage their hunger better than other classes and gain Focus and Mana efficiency as they level up. | 14,25% |
 Elf |
+3% Speed +10% Cooldown Reduction +10% Stealth |
Elves are nimble and elegant. While not the strongest for a tanky role, they make fantastic archers and great spellcasters. As they level, they also get extra Mana and Focus. | 14,25% |
 Orc |
+10% Health Regen +15% Max Hunger +20% Heat Resistance |
Orcs are made for battle. Their health regenerates faster, they are more resistant to heat, and they are generally suited for heavy armor and melee weapons. The tradeoff is they need to eat more than other races. | 14,25% |
How to race reroll in Rune Slayer
When you log into Rune Slayer for the first time, you’ll be assigned one of the seven available races at random. If you aren’t happy with the race you’ve been given, you can buy a Race Reroll for 150 Robux. If you’re after a specific race, such as the Dullahan, make sure you have enough Robux for a bunch of Race Rerolls because it’s going to take a while.
As of writing this, there is no way to reroll a race after creating a character. You have to do it from the character creator.
That’s all there is to it. Again, unless you’re trying to mid-max, remember you can get by with any race you pull. If you’re wondering which class you should pick to go with your race, check out our The Ultimate Rune Slayer Class Tier List.
