One of Holocure‘s greatest strengths is in its Collabs. These are powerful weapon combinations that can dictate the course of a run. The issue is, what ones are the best? The answer isn’t straightforward, but Collabs definitely aren’t created equally. With this in mind, let me show you a Tier list of all Collab weapons ranked in Holocure. If you’re looking for a list of every Collab and how to make them, we’ve got you covered.
All Collab weapons ranked in Holocure – Tier List
Tier lists don’t mean much without context, but Collabs in this list are rated on damage output and effectiveness in Stage Mode. Ultimately, tier lists are opinions, so if you enjoy using Collabs I’ve put in C-Tier, don’t let me stop you!

All Colab weapons ranked in Holocure – Tier List Explained
Before you grab your Psycho Axes, let me explain my reasoning for every Collab on the list.
S-Tier
The best of the best that walk the barrier between strong and overpowered.
Dragon Fire – This Collab hits like a freight train and is superb for mobs AND bosses. Its crazy fire rate means it constantly procs ‘on hit’ effects, and damage output feels outright broken. If you want to win, this is what you bring.
Broken Dreams – This Collab morphs CEO tears into a relentless rain shower. The rain never stops, and each droplet deals damage. If your enemies get close, the bubble around you has a slowing effect. A strong contender for the best attack in the game.
Rap Dog – Flaming microphones bounce all over the screen, piercing enemies and making them take 20% extra damage. Rap Dog does it all; it’s great for mobs and bosses, and you don’t even have to aim it. Rap Dog did receive a damage nerf recently, but make no mistake, it’s still incredibly potent.
Crescent Bardiche – This Collab is a crit machine thanks to its 1.5x critical damage modifier. Many Collabs bombard the map with AoE effects, but Crescent Bardiche is a close-range weapon. I may rate this Collab too highly, but the damage feels excellent, and it’s easy to focus on specific targets.
A-Tier
Superb Collabs that bring a lot to the table and are strong candidates in every run.
MiComet – MiComet is a devastating explosive barrage that hurls several meteors at the map. These meteors leave lava in their wake that deals constant damage. MiComet is only in A-Tier because the S tier is straight-busted.
I’m Die, Thank You Forever – I must be missing something with this Collab as I’ve seen it rated very poorly. This Collab sticks explosives onto targets. When that target dies, the bomb explodes with a massive AoE blast. This makes I’m Die, Thank You Forever a solid mob killer. The only problem is it’s useless against bosses, but I still take it any chance I get.
Snow Flower Sake – This Collab hurls bottles that freeze enemies. That freeze effect may not sound like much, but their massive AoE more than makes up for it. A great blend of offensive power and valuable crowd control.
MiKorone – Your X-Potatoes become a fiery meteor shower, leaving pools of lava in their wake. This Collab does a ton of damage on hit and burns any enemies that walk into the impact zone.
Bone Bros – Bone Bros unleashes a combo attack in front and behind your character. The Collab is easy to aim for single-target damage and hits a wide enough area for solid AoE coverage.Â
Eldritch Horror – Although the damage may leave a bit to be desired, Eldritch Horror offers valuable crowd control with its slowing portals. Enemies caught in the whirlpools also grant lifesteal, making this Collab a great utility pickup.
Frozen Sea – This Collab is the complete package. Frozen Sea litters the screen in damaging ice that offers valuable crowd control with its slowing effect. If your enemies survive, they have to deal with a powerful orbital ability before they get to you.Â
Idol Concert – This Collab floods the screen with huge rainbow-colored music notes that explode, dealing a ton of damage. Damage scales well, and the projectiles are so big they hit most enemies on the screen.
B-Tier
B-Tier Collabs are good but are overshadowed by those in the higher tiers. This doesn’t necessarily mean they are bad, but they have issues you’ll want to patch up as you go.
BL Fujoshi – BL Fujoshi is a deadly orbital attack but incredibly distracting. There’s no denying the damage output, but I struggle to keep track of my opponents with this Collab. If you’re alright with that, this is easily an A-Tier ability.
Elite Cooking – This Collab is a widespread AOE ability. Elite Cooking fills a large portion of the screen with damaging pools of miasma. It lacks burst damage but makes your foes squishy by the time they reach you. Elite Cooking would rate higher if there were some form of crowd control.
Breathe-In Type Asacoco –This Collab is capable of lighting the map up with explosions that deal decent damage. The problem is the explosions don’t hit everywhere and are unpredictable. Breathe-In Type Asacoco offers great AoE coverage, but its randomness is a problem.
Flattening Board – This Collab makes it rain chopping boards; yes, it’s as ludicrous as it sounds. Unfortunately, this Collab only has boosted stats if you use ‘flat characters.’ Unless you’re doing so, there are better alternatives.
Light Beam – OK damage dealer but pales compared to others on the list. The Light Beam hits random enemies and only hits a small area when it goes off.Â
Lightning Wiener – Lightning Wiener looks impressive and does respectable damage. However, it feels less potent than other AoE Collabs with additional effects like ‘Snow Flower Sake.’ Because of this, I can’t rate this new Collab any higher.
Curse Ball – This is another new Collab in Holocure 0.6. Curse Ball is a large energy ball that bounces across the map, dealing damage to anything it touches. The gimmick is if it hits you, it lasts longer. It’s a fun idea, but I prefer items that require less micromanagement.
Stream of Tears – Stream of Tears emits two huge rotating beams that hit everything in sight. These beams also have a slight knockback effect. The issue is damage output doesn’t seem very high, even at low levels. Compared to other strong AoE’s like Idol Concert, This Collab doesn’t do enough to place higher.
C-TierÂ
These are niche picks that lack the instant value offered by other Collabs. Like everything in Holocure, you can make these Collabs work with the right build.
Absolute Wall – Absolute wall is a great defensive Collab in a game where a great offense is the best defense. The unrivaled knockback is nice, and there are ways to build around that, but I wouldn’t use it outside of a meme build. In survival, the dynamic changes, but for Stage play that we’re focused on for this list, Absolute Wall is rarely worth it.
Ring of Fitness – I’ve tried to get this one to work, but I can’t find a good use for Ring of Fitness in Holocure 0.6. Large Bounce Balls fly out from your character in a circle and damage foes they hit. Unfortunately, as they don’t come from the sky or have any crowd control effects, they can’t break up dense packs of mobs.
Legendary Sausage – I seriously didn’t want to put this Collab in C-Tier. It’s a sausage with a duck’s head; what’s not to like? Unfortunately, Legendary Sausage looks the part but only hits close-range enemies and isn’t continuous. It’s like an orbital that runs out. It’s a tough sell when we already have items like BL Fujoshi.
