Monster Hunter Wilds Best Weapons Tier List
Our tier list for *Monster Hunter Wilds* focuses primarily on damage output, yet it also considers versatility and skills. It's worth noting that every weapon type in the game is viable, so choosing one that resonates with you is key.
Personally, I've favored the Switch Axe throughout, despite its lower damage stats. It's just incredibly enjoyable to use. Now, let's dive into the 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 has maintained its dominance from *Monster Hunter World* into *Monster Hunter Wilds*. It's user-friendly and excels at dealing damage from a safe distance. Its skills significantly enhance its DPS, making it a top choice.
The Gunlance and Long Sword also shine in this tier. The Gunlance boasts one of the highest DPS numbers currently in the game, while the Long Sword is ideal for players who enjoy parrying and countering monster attacks.
A-Tier
The Great Sword, despite its potential for the highest DPS, requires significant skill to master due to its slow and cumbersome nature. For many, the S-Tier weapons may be a more practical choice.
The Hunting Horn stands out in multiplayer, offering not only solid damage but also valuable support and utility for your team.
The Charge Blade is another excellent option, boasting defensive capabilities and versatility. Mastering its dual modes can take time, but it's one of the most engaging weapons in *Monster Hunter Wilds*.
This concludes our *Monster Hunter Wilds* weapon tier list. For more tips and detailed information on the game, including armor sets and how to acquire Armor Spheres, be sure to check out The Escapist.
