Ranking ALL Paper Mario TTYD Partners

Want to improve your Paper Mario game? Listen to us explain in great detail why Bobbery and Mowz are REALLY bad.
---
This is a Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door partner tier list.
For this tier list I brought along Kappy to discuss and explain the strengths and weaknesses of each partner. We both play a lot of Paper Mario, so we decided to make this comprehensive guide for people who want to improve their game. Also it's just kind of an excuse for us to casually talk about a game we both love.
This is in no way meant to be "the only way to play the game". Play how you want and have fun playing a great game!

Lip lock keeps her healthy without having to rely on any items, which, going into the shadow queen, I had literally a single 20 HP healing item and the rest were FP. Really helped to see how good her survivability is compared to every other partner.

    What's crazy about ms Mowz is that she's so close to being good. Say you could get her after her final encounter in chapter 3. Say further that love slap increased damage per slap (hitting 3 times for 1 damage, then 3 for 2, then 3 for 3.) then it could be boosted by a badge in a useful way. The defense piercing would actually matter. Also for an acrobat it's weird that she lacks any jumping attacks. And Kiss Thief should work on flying enemies. Everything was there but the execution.

    I think Mowz is meant to be support, because her specials involve disabling the enemy and healing Mario, even her base attack while weak, it also goes along with the disabling gimmick by ignoring their defense If anything she should get better support options, because even in that regard she's still pretty weak tbh, and specially have Kiss Thief work on everyone regardless of anything, because you usually bring her in whenever there's something to steal, though I can take an useful attacking move over Tease any day tbh, and Love Slap could use a damage buff, because it's already very limited like the normal Hammer, might as well make that a lil more worth using for more than a lil chip damage against very defensive enemies or finish them off while they're at 3HP or less

    I always wondered why Mowz didn't have multi-hit properties on Slap. The animation clearly shows multiple hits. Kinda weird that Bow's slap matches her animation and hits multiple times but Mowz a game later just adds them all up. If she had 1+1+2 piercing damage would she be decent, since she'd then be able to tap into ridiculous damage boost strats? Clearly still worse than Goombella and Yoshi due to worse utility and other limitations on her attacks, but she might at least be ok.

    I feel as though Ms. Mowz, despite being seemingly an afterthought, was meant to come across specifically as a tech choice. Goombella is similar, but she has multi-hit instead of piercing, and both otherwise function as primarily support (Tattling enemies and giving extra turns for Goombella, and literally all of her mish-mashed effects for Mowz). Which, of course, makes Goombella infinitely better. Outside of battle, Goombella exists for information and lore, whereas Mowz can locate treasure. If they stacked the supporting effects better, I feel Ms. Mowz could've been greatly improved, but as-is, she's a fun side character whose only usage is Kiss Thief and hunting panels

    I agree a LOT with this. Flurrie is weird because I prefer killing enemies than “removing them” BUT it still gives you exp, so that’s nice. Ranked up Flurrie does 4 damage compared to Koops 3, but most people would complete chapter 2 BEFORE upgrading Flurrie. She’s an excellent tank with an immunity to “earth shaker” moves and lip lock. She’s the first partner that can hit ceiling foes. She also has a cool niche in Cortez phase 3 because she can permanently remove the weapons. Mowz…. I wish she was better. If ANYTHING I wish her trouble was available immediately after chapter 3. Because she kinda has a use there with piercing damage on hyper clefts and buzzy beetles…. But granted you could just use Mario and goombella.

    It's funny how my playstyle is so far away from the optimal one. I mainly use Vivian and almost never use Yoshi or Goombella. I tend to be really conservative in my FP usage and hate peril and buff strats, and I'm really bad at the action command for multibonk. I also just really like Vivian for...other reasons. And by other reasons I mean that her personality and character arcs are awesome. What did you think I meant?

    The first time I played TTYD I tried a run without items or attack up badges, so Yoshi wasn't very useful. Anything with defense would render him useless unless they could be Gulp'd or I used Power Lift. I prefered to use Koops and Vivian since they could bypass defense, and if enemies didn't have defense, it was better to use Bobbery for the big damage (I had a lot of FP). Ms Mowz was the only other way I had to heal Mario aside from using special moves, so that was a welcome niche!

    Cool video. I really liked your breakdown and reasoning of the partner moves. In the defense of kiss thief you can steal badges even if the enemy is not holding them right now you just need to grind a bit. For e.g I farmed P up D downs on koopatrols in the pit. Paralyzed them and used kiss thief over and over again. As long as you CAN steal the badge from an enemy(depending on the loot table of casuse), you ll get it eventually. it doesn't dismiss any of the points you bought up, but if you playing really casuaslly and hove time on your hands it works Edit: you mentioned the above point later so yeah... forget I said anything

Knew she'd be at the top of the list.

    It's funny that you mention the thief class in Fire Emblem in comparison to Ms Mowz considering that they're made by the same company (Intelligent Systems). Plus thieves in Fire Emblem are good because the lockpick allows you to bypass getting keys for doors and chests, on top of the fact that after FE6 you can promote them to Assassins. Also I'm surprised you didn't mention the quest to obtain her either, which requires you to go through Hooktail's castle again (which if you do the hide and seek request will likely be your 3rd time in the castle), go all the way to the top, then walk all the way back out again.

    This list is very interesting... but I feel it does rely heavily on the idea that the player is going to be utilizing a lot of partner buff badges in a certain way. While many players will probably use a few when possible, I think it's kind of silly to expect every player will slam on 2 Power Plus P's among others, because of the badge cost; especially early on. When you factor in super builds, I can certainly see why you position characters the way you do, as Yoshi having 3 great Multi-hits, 1 of which weakens attack and a defense pierce as well for situational combat... that does help like crazy... but if he isn't strapped with power increasing badges, any enemy with defense will suffer no damage; same weakness as Lady Bow had in the original. When you factor in default strength, Goombella, Kooper, Flurrie, Bobbery and Vivian rise much higher, as they can still do what they were designed to without needing to rely on a ton of supplements to apply their abilities. Yoshi only reaches the upper level when he's got all that support, otherwise; he's good against standard enemies, but struggles against anything with a bit of defensive power; except the Iron Clefts, who he was built to kill so.
