This tier list ranks all 29 weapons from S to D tier:
S-Tier Weapons — Meta Bonkers
- Dexecutioner: Pierces enemies and executes mobs below a threshold regardless of HP. Late game becomes a nonstop purple laser and increases Joe’s Dagger proc chance.
- Dice: High RNG-based damage spikes; dominates raw numbers and DPS. Slightly outclassed by newer builds.
- Black Hole: Exceptional crowd control, locks mobs in place, increases AoE damage. Weak early game damage.
- Aura: Smooth early-game tool, farms XP passively, stabilizes FPS in heavy runs. Loses impact late game.
- Flame Walkers: Fire trails scale endlessly, creating burning zones with stacking damage. Strong in casual and WR setups.
- Axe: Multi-hit swings, executes, and scales heavily late game with proper setup.
A-Tier Weapons — Strong Choices
- Sniper Rifle: Piercing, high single-target DPS. Great for bosses and elite waves but slow for farming.
- Shotgun: Clears screens with spread and projectile count. Excellent early-game scaling with shrine buffs.
- Bananarang: Projectile storm with lifesteal, knockback utility, and massive screen damage potential. Bugs may reduce scaling.
- Revolver: Steady and consistent, gains AoE via bounces and crit synergy. Slightly weaker than S-tier.
- Katana: Scales with crit builds, covers screen well. Slightly nerfed but powerful in late-game crit chains.
- Aegis: Shield-based defense, invaluable early and mid-game. Falls off in T3 Desert.
- Lightning Staff: Chain lightning hits across the map, lifesteal synergy, versatile but harder to control precisely.
B-Tier Weapons — Niche Picks
- Bone: Bouncing projectiles useful in tight spaces.
- Fire Staff: Decent AoE but weaker than Flame Walkers.
- Frost Walkers: Slows enemies, size upgrades synergize, low damage.
- Blood Magic: Lifesteal and DoT; strong early but outclassed later.
- Bow: Decent early-game piercing; misses can be frustrating.
- Wireless Dagger: Fun and decent filler, slow compared to meta weapons.
- Mines: Set up aerial bombardment strategies, strong with scaling but needs setup and luck.
C-Tier Weapons — Weak Weapons
- Tornado: Strong knockback but random and often misses.
- Missiles (S Rockets): Fun but slow and weaker than Bone or Bananarang.
- Poison Flask: Good for casual elite fights, weak overall.
- Hero Sword: Hard to unlock, low damage.
D-Tier Weapons — Avoid These Weapons
- Space Noodle: Meme weapon, unreliable.
- Sword: Potentially scales well but too slow to matter.
- Chunkers: Outclassed by Bananarang, ineffective.
- Dragon’s Breath: Low uptime, weak damage.
- Cursed Blade: Requires low HP; not practical.
