S-Tier Weapons – The Current Meta Kings
- Dexecutioner
- Pierces enemies and instantly executes below-threshold mobs.
- Becomes a nonstop purple laser late-game, scaling endlessly.
- Synergizes with Joe’s Dagger, adding a 1% extra proc chance.
- A staple in world record (WR) runs.
- Dice
- RNG-driven, but capable of absurd damage spikes.
- Once dominated WR leaderboards thanks to sheer DPS scaling.
- Slightly overshadowed by newer builds, but still top-tier.
- Black Hole
- Provides unmatched crowd control, locking enemies in place.
- Amplifies AoE weapon damage and enables high kill-count runs.
- Weak early game, but essential for scaling setups.
- Aura
- Smoothest early-game option, farming XP passively.
- Unique utility: stabilizes FPS during heavy-object WR runs.
- Loses power later, but crucial for early stability.
- Flame Walkers
- Fire trails scale infinitely with attack speed/projectiles.
- Turns the entire screen into a burning hazard.
- Dominant for both casual runs and WR setups.
- Axe
- Multi-hit swings abuse crits and on-hit effects.
- Weak at base, but scales monstrously with the right build.
A-Tier Weapons – Reliable Strong Picks
- Sniper Rifle – Excellent single-target DPS and piercing, ideal for bosses. Clunky for farming mobs.
- Shotgun – Once underrated, now WR-proven. Incredible screen-clearing potential, great scaling with shrines.
- Bananarang – Creates projectile storms with lifesteal sustain. Knockback adds safety. Bugs hurt scaling consistency.
- Revolver – Consistent and reliable, with crit synergy. Falls short of S-tier damage.
- Katana – Crit builds push it to near-S-tier levels. Post-nerf, still devastating late-game.
- Aegis – Provides shields and breathing room, especially strong early/mid. Falls off in late Desert tiers.
- Lightning Staff – Chain lightning offers wide pressure and lifesteal synergy. Harder to control.
B-Tier Weapons – Situational but Useful
- Bone – Good bounce farming tool early but scales poorly.
- Fire Staff – Decent AoE, weaker than Flame Walkers.
- Frost Walkers – Slows enemies effectively, good for survival but low damage.
- Blood Magic – Lifesteal sustain with DoTs, strong early but falls off. RNG-heavy.
- Bow – Solid starter weapon with piercing, but scales poorly without crit/proj boosts.
- Wireless Dagger – Fun lifesteal option but lacks speed/damage for meta play.
- Mines – Strong with scaling, but slow and setup-heavy.
C-Tier Weapons – Weak Options
- Tornado – Knockback is strong, but procs randomly and inconsistently.
- Missiles – Fun but too slow and weaker than other projectiles.
- Poison Flask – Casual play option, but poor damage output.
- Hero’s Sword – Hard to unlock and ultimately underwhelming.
D-Tier Weapons – Avoid These
- Space Noodle – Meme weapon, unreliable and weak.
- Sword – Potential to scale but suffers from poor knockback mechanics.
- Chunkers – Overshadowed by bananas in every way.
- Dragon’s Breath – Weak uptime, unaffected by projectile boosts.
- Cursed Blade – Decent damage only when low HP, but feels awful to use.
