Warner Bros. Games’ new 2D brawler, MultiVersus, focuses on gameplay over everything. One feature of MultiVersus that enhances its gameplay is its perk system. In Multiversus, players can choose from several perks that affect their character’s stats to their play style. Perks can range from buffs to literal attacks. In this guide, we will cover the MultiVersus best perks in each category.
MultiVersus Best Perks – Offensive, Defensive, Utility:
Perks are divided into two categories, signature perks, and general perks. Signature perks are exclusive to characters, while general perks are accessible to every character. This guide will focus on general perks. Perks are divided into three categories: offense, defense, and utility. Furthermore, perks in MultiVersus co-op can be stacked up, so choosing your perks wisely can mean the difference between winning and losing.
The Best Offensive Perks in MultiVersus
Snowball Effect
Snowball Effect gives players an additional 7% damage. When stacked, it gives your team a damage boost of 15%. Not only is the damage helpful boost, but it can also be the best thing for a duo of two bruisers or tanks. For players that like to go all out with their combos and like to be offensive, Snowball Effect allows them to make every hit count.
On the contrary, for defensive players and players that like to strategize every move, Snowball Effect ensures that each attack was worth it and did considerable damage. It is also an excellent perk for beginners since no one can go wrong with added damage. All this makes Snowball Effect one of, if not the best MultiVersus Perks.
Hit Em While They’re Down
This perk makes you deal 5% damage when your foe(s) is debuffed. For teams, the damage boost is by 10%. This is one of the best MultiVersus perks for skilled players. Debuffing an enemy is tricky, but it is always rewarding. This perk increases that reward. Getting 10% bonus damage when your enemy is in a very vulnerable state means you have an increased chance of quickly getting through their health bar.
Hit Em While They’re Down is an excellent perk for characters that can deal debuffs. Characters such as Harley Quinn and Superman will capitalize on this perk.
Make It Rain, Dog!
Make it rain, dog! Is a powerful MultiVersus perk. This perk increases the speed of projectiles by 25%. Projectiles can be a great way to disrupt gameplay and annoy your foes in MultiVersus. They are, however, often slow and easy to predict. This perk dramatically enhances the speed of projectiles thrown, which can be a great way to quickly stop the flow of an enemy’s attack or protect your teammate from a barrage of attacks. Overall, this is one of the best offensive perks in MultiVersus.
The Best Defensive Perks in MultiVersus
Toon Elasticity
Toon Elasticity reduces bounce by 20% and 25% if stacked with a partner. Bounce can be devastating in MultiVersus. The momentum generated from a bounce can lead to a knockout. It often provides foes with the ability to stack up a high amount of damage as soon as possible. With Toon Elasticity, bounce is reduced significantly. This can be a lifesaver since a low health bounce can lead to getting knocked out of the map.
Slippery Customer
This perk increases dodge invulnerability by 10% and by 15% when stacked. Dodging is crucial in MultiVersus. Dodging is arguably the most essential part of the defense, and good dodging means minimal damage. Dodging is, however, tricky in MultiVersus, especially when facing nimble and fast characters like Shaggy and Arya Stark.
This MultiVersus perk increases the chance of a successful dodge by 10% or 15% (when stacked). While this may not sound like much to veterans of the game and genre, it can certainly be the difference between a successful and unsuccessful dodge for newcomers. All in all, this is one of the best defensive MultiVersus perks, especially for beginners.
Absorb ‘n’ Go
This perk decreases ability cooldown after being knocked down by a projectile by 7% and 15% when stacked. Given how abundant projectiles are in most games of MultiVersus, the likelihood of being knocked down by one in a game is pretty high. This perk will at least give you something out of that. The ability cooldown can be essential for characters like Shaggy and Wonder Woman, who have potent abilities. Especially when facing players that rely too much on projectiles, this perk will come in clutch.
The Best Utility Perks in MultiVersus
Triple Jump
As the name suggests, the triple jump perk adds an extra jump to your character. Given that MultiVersus is as focused on mid-air combat as it is on the ground, this perk can be very powerful. Mid-air combat is essential and can be crucial for getting knockouts; this perk ensures you get to stay up for longer and means your chances of knocking your opponent off the map when they are high up are significantly increased.
On the defensive side, this MultiVersus perk ensures you have a greater chance of making it back to the map when knocked back pretty far. Making it back to the map is the difference between life and death; with this perk equipped, you will almost always be making it all. All the defensive and offensive capabilities of the triple jump make it one of the best perks in MultiVersus.
Coffeezilla
Coffeezilla reduces ability cooldown by 10% and by 15% when stacked. This alone should explain why we think it is among the best perks in MultiVersus. Abilities can be devastating, with some characters being good only because of their abilities. A reduction in cooldown of abilities means the opportunity to use them more often, which can be extremely handy.
For players that rely a lot on abilities, both offensive and defensive, Coffeezilla should be a no-brainer. A team with two characters with strong abilities and Coffeezilla stacked will almost always be near overpowered.
Leg Day Champ
Leg Day Champ increases jump height by 10% and 15% when stacked. As discussed, aerial combat is a big part of MultiVersus and can lead to devastating knockouts. A higher jump means more control over aerial combat and greater time mid-air. This can come in handy, especially with players that emphasize vertical movement. This perk can be convenient, from a greater time to execute combos mid-air to a higher chance of returning to the map. When stacked with the triple jump, Leg Day Champ will give your character the ability to fly.
This completes our list of the best perks in Multiversus. Ultimately, every MultiVersus perk is viable, especially when backed by a strategy, and this is one of the many things we love about the game. Choose your perks wisely and you shall see tremendous results. Good luck!
