Monster Hunter Wilds Best Weapons Tier List
Our tier list for *Monster Hunter Wilds* focuses primarily on damage output, but also considers versatility and skills. It's crucial to understand that every weapon in the game is viable, so choose the one that resonates with you the most. Personally, I've enjoyed using the Switch Axe throughout my playthrough, despite its lower damage ranking, simply because it's incredibly fun to use. Below is our detailed tier list:
| Tier | Weapon |
|---|---|
| S | Bow Gunlance Long Sword |
| A | Great Sword Charge Blade Hunting Horn Dual Blades |
| B | Sword and Shield Insect Glaive |
| C | Lance Switch Axe Light Bowgun Heavy Bowgun Hammer |
S-Tier
The Bow continues its dominance from *Monster Hunter World* into *Monster Hunter Wilds*. It's user-friendly and excels at dealing damage safely from a distance. Its skills enhance its DPS, making it a top choice for many hunters.
The Gunlance and Long Sword also shine in the S-Tier. The Gunlance boasts one of the highest DPS numbers in the game, while the Long Sword is ideal for those who enjoy parrying and countering monster attacks.
A-Tier
The Great Sword, despite its high DPS potential, requires significant skill to master due to its slow and unwieldy nature. It's often more practical to opt for S-Tier weapons instead.
The Hunting Horn stands out in multiplayer scenarios, offering not only substantial damage but also valuable support and utility for your team.
The Charge Blade is another excellent choice, offering defensive capabilities and versatility. Mastering its dual modes can be challenging but rewarding, making it one of the most enjoyable weapons to wield in *Monster Hunter Wilds*.
That concludes our *Monster Hunter Wilds* weapon tier list. For more tips and detailed information on the game, including guides on all armor sets and how to obtain Armor Spheres, be sure to visit The Escapist.
