Space_Australian: The self-restraint to not make a "tear list" pun is immaculate.
Revision-Harrowed: One thing to note about the Twiggy cracked tear is that you can always put it on after
icetide9411: The hidden viridian tear disappointed me so much when I learned it didn't work with shields. I thought "Oh cool! Now with a shield you can become super aggressive for a little bit!" But for some weird reason they decided that was too overpowered I guess. Hidden cerulean gets to have insanely overpowered but highly specific use, but it's green sibling gets basically nothing
Vlaffffy: The deflecting tier genuinely fixes so many issues with the combat system of this game that I'm surprised it wasn't included in the base game.
EXQUIS1T3: Deflecting tear best tear
nicolasvillasecaali7662: Math for the one factor almost ALL build guides skip with no commentary. The Chrightt keeps winning.

On a lesser note: what you think would be a good build for the new Str/Arc weapon like the ancient meteoric greatsword?
VonSchnitz: Deflecting tier is absolutely the GOAT, gotta turn the game into Sekiro
DispariScuro: It's funny the Crimson-Sapping tear would require you to hit 1.5 times per second for 45 seconds straight to heal 50% of your HP, when there's just a tear that heals 50% of your HP unconditionally.
jacobstalls1159: Another benefit of the Cerulean hidden tear is that it works for spirit summons, so any build can use high fp summons like black knife tiche
vengerofthelight: I don't necessarily care if it's in the tier list format or not, but I do
Krakenlord23: Love the Twiggy Cracked Tear for all the exploration and traveling in the game. No need to ever stress about losing runes when exploring dangerous areas. S tier utility tear.
fable23: I do a lot of co-op, and I like to "park" at certain level thresholds so I can enjoy particular regions. As a result, the amount of runes I carry on my person at any given time can climb into the millions, sometimes even the tens of millions. The twiggy cracked tear might not be the most useful in combat, but it does WONDERS to relieve my anxiety about losing all those runes, lol
Zantetsu13: For the charged attack tear, instead of taking the riposte in most cases you can pull off 1-2 charged attacks that will do more damage than what the riposte would've done (dependent on the weapon crit multiplier, and furnace golem excluded).
Hura_the_Blessed: Spiked crystal tear is rather slept on for roar builds its quite a boost considering the amount of boosts heavy attacks can get and the hyperarmor roar buffed heavies have
tasin2776: Surprised spiked cracked tear is so low since every speedrun and challenge run uses it
