Weapons in A Tier are top of the line without being game breaking. To not be using this weapon is to put yourself at a severe disadvantage regardless of character, map, enemy type, or play-style.
Weapons in S Tier are Meta shaping all on their own. I am just one player! And would love to move things around if properly persuaded to try and make a list this sub can somewhat agree upon. I’d love to see what you all have to think about the list and hope players just starting out can use this to pick smart builds and work their way to reliable gold runs as fast as possible! Please keep all discussion civil (duh) and if you can post any reasoning (examples, math, builds) as for why something belongs in a different tier. As people get better at the game and learn new tricks and methods to maximize a weapons potential with a certain class a weapon can easily make the jump from mediocre to a must have in niche situations. This is not meant to be a be-all end-all list. All weapons were tested through multiple matches at rank X bar the ultra-rares which were tested at rank 1, 2 or 3. I will mention them at the end, as well as note the few weapons I was unable to test.
There are a few weapons on here that skate the line between different tiers.
Much of this was tested pre patch 1.05, but that patch did very little except bring vanquisher down a few notches and help solidify a few weapons in their respective tiers that were bordering the line.īelow I have described my criteria for what makes a weapon that tier, an important part of any tier list, as this is not a list of weapons best to worst, a tier represents a weapons place in the current meta. I started working on this weapons tier list a few days ago and wanted to share my experience with the weaponry to help players figure out what is worth using in Gold matches.
