Here it is. Weapons tier list. I think some people really awaited for this because there are not a single tier list made for Weapon Skills ranking on the forums.
There are these tiers:
S - Weapon skills that can be considered a Meta. Using them usually has great impact on your gameplay.
A - Great skills which aren’t too good to be Meta but having them for your health.
B - The most average skills which are just mid. They don’t impact the gameplay too much, nor being overpowered, but they aren’t weak really.
C - Bad tier which is for skills which are heavily underworked and aren’t worth it, but still have their perks. Usually used by masochists level 60.
F - FUCK YOU DIE! Worst skills to ever exist, these need a complete overhaul and using them is equivalent to shooting your brain with a shotgun 1 meter away from your head.
I hope that clarifies everything, have fun.
[details=“Tier S”]
Thermo Fist
Yes you heard me thats a gun I have a dementia idk
Piercing Shot
Fuck you.
Sparrow Thrust
I did not use it much (because Warrior sucks) but from what I heard it’s a really strong move, so yeah.
Crushing Judgement
OKAY OKAY OKAY, HEAR ME OUT.
This was a really hard decision but Crushing Judgement seems really good to be honest. Good mobility, with high attack speed builds it’s also fast and not that slow, and it also has good size in overall. Well rounded skill that should be used occasionously.
Piercing Gale
Flying Slash but better. Fast, a bit hard to notice, and has the same AoE. In overall great move.
Tier A
Whirlwind
This was hard to decide but Whirlwind should be here. It’s not slow, deals good damage, has almost no endlag and no start up, on ground allows you to move while charging this move, in overall great thing.
Axe Throw
Surprisingly good actually and is funny in overall. Also no Crimis did not pay me for making that it’s my own opinion also no you aint hunting me down crimis I am surrounded by sushi guardians
Sword Draw: Mirrored River
Flash Strike, but more AoE in overall, more range, and is just good. Amazing mobility, probably one of my favourite moves ngl.
Storm of Arrows
Rain of Arrows… But more arrows!
Striking Gale
Okay, before you fucking kill me, this skill is actually pretty good at some point. Good damage, amazing SFX (but not about that), with low size is hard to notice especially in daytime. The only problem with S. Gale is that it’s just… Too slow.
Shining Cycle
Good self AoE move, rushdown punisher. I think no further explanation needed.
Onslaught
Amazing damage, doesn’t make you vulnerable enough. One of the most amazing grab moves to use as a Conjurer.
Soaring Eagle
Warrior’s Leap spell.
Raging Impact
BARELY makes it out of B tier. Has insane damage but is sadly slow. Good for endlag punishing.
Flying Phoenix
Fast and uhh…
phoenix
Shield Bash
Could be one of the best Grab moves in the game, satisfying, decent damage, doesn’t have that bad of an endlag, great skill in overall
Tier B
Devastate
Devastate
Devastate
Idiot.
Tiger Rush
Good grab move. Thats all
Sword Draw: Mountain Wind
Striking Gale but 3 gales
Sword Draw: Flash Strike
For some reason this move is hard to hit, the AoE is buggy and the range is not as good. This skill is still good and would make it to tier A if Mirrored River wasn’t a thing.
Gun Draw: Rapid Fire
Basically Piercing Shot but multiple bullets
Twin Crescents
To be honest it’s just Flying Slash but more end lag and more damage total. People seem to use it more, however, and it’s overall better than Flying Slash for multitude of reasons.
Gun Draw: idk I forgot the singular flintlock multishot
yes
Beast Instinct
On paper it’s an incredible move, in reality… You will never hit it actually, unless you endlag demon them but the usual Piercing Gale deals with it better
Polearm Throw
Polearm weapons are used more and this one is overall better than Dagger Throw, that’s it
Shield Throw
Funny shield throw
Rain of Arrows
Your average mobile mortar. It’s not bad nor good: It’s really easy to avoid but if it DOES hit, the damage is really good. PvE only likely, but in small space is overpowered against PvP. The only problem is the endlag, but ehh..
Flying Slash
The absolute middle of the skills, it has some impact on the gameplay, but honestly feels underwhelming and is slow, but is useful for sure.
Impaling Strike
i sure do love getting hit by a spear and then being fucking penetrated to watch a cutscene which takes longer than beating Minecraft and then being smashed
In overall has some good gimmick and is best to use with Crystal… I think?
Piercing Strikes
I kinda want to consider it one of the best grab moves after Tiger Rush and Onslaught, it doesn’t make you vulnerable as fuck, it’s good and is not too slow.
Tier C
Primal Swipe
Almost gets to Tier B but it’s flying Slash but less range so no why would you even use this
Quick Combo & Cheap Shot
Both have the same problem: Horrible end lag, you shouldnt ever use this as a grab move and is just bad in overall.
Quickdraw
Sorry fellow Bow fans, but this skill is straight up bad, use it only for endlag punishing unless you have aimbot or something
Spiraling Fury
If I EVER got 1 galleon for seeing someone use this, I wouldnt even be able to buy a Repair Hammer.
Seriously though, what the hell is this move? Why does it exist? Why would anyone use it? Buggy as hell. Not worth it.
Dagger Throw
It’s just Flying Slash… But lacks AoE and… Who even uses this?
Tempest
Whirlwind but slower??? Yes, I do get it has good clash rates, but thats pretty much it about it. Not much damage, slow as fuck, and doesn’t work as area denial like some people expected. Also its easily bypassed by some moves so yeah, not that good of a skill.
Skull Crusher
Buggy and has big endlag.
Tier F
that one heavy blunt throw I forgot
Burning hate towards this move. Needs a rework, and is buggy as hell. The grab move itself doesn’t even deal much damage to compensate how much buggy this move is. Never use it AT ALL.
Seismic Slash
FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU.
THIS THING IS TRASH. NO FURTHER EXPLANATION NEEDED BUT I WILL STILL ADD IT BECAUSE I’M AN INSANE VOID ORB WAHH WAHH
Works as Devastate but 2x times worse. Never use this skill, it will kill your sanity and is not worth it at all, if you wanna use Lion’s Halberd still just use Devastate or perhaps Crushing Judgement if we can put it there, Seismic Slash is absolute garbage and is not worth it at all just disarm the Halberd and throw away this move for the sake of god and your sanity.
Worst move in the game.
I hope I forgot nothing, if I did, tell me so I add it to the tier list. Any criticism (except toxic one) is welcomed
