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 worth noting that all weapon types in the game are viable, so feel free to choose the one that resonates with you the most. For instance, I personally favored the Switch Axe throughout, despite its lower damage ranking, simply because it's incredibly enjoyable to use. Now, let's dive into the tier list.

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 significantly boost its DPS, making it a top choice.

The Gunlance and Long Sword also rank in the S-Tier. The Gunlance boasts one of the highest DPS ratings in the game, while the Long Sword is ideal for those who enjoy parrying and countering monsters.

A-Tier

The Great Sword, while having a low barrier to entry and the potential for high DPS, requires significant skill to master due to its slow and unwieldy nature. In many cases, the S-Tier weapons might be more practical.

The Hunting Horn stands out in multiplayer settings, offering not only substantial damage but also essential utility and support for your teammates.

The Charge Blade is another A-Tier weapon worth exploring. It offers defensive capabilities and versatility, though mastering its dual modes takes time. It's one of the most engaging weapons to use in *Monster Hunter Wilds*.

That concludes our *Monster Hunter Wilds* weapon tier list. For more tips and detailed information, including a guide on all armor sets and how to obtain Armor Spheres, be sure to visit The Escapist.
