Best Weapons Tier List Criteria

SS SS Tier Best of the Best
Weapons in this tier are powerful and flexible, able to be used by plenty of Operators either as their best-in-slot or as one of their strongest substitutes. These weapons are great to have for any account regardless of its state.
S S Tier Strong and Versatile
Weapons in the S-tier are strong and have a degree of flexibility, but are often relegated as a strong subtitute rather than a best-in-slot. These are still great to have for any account, and are serviceable even in the endgame.
A A Tier Great But Niche
Weapons in this tier are great weapons, but are held back by its niche weapon skills. These can perform well if the Operator can fulfill its niche, but are easily overshadowed by weapons higher in tier if they don't.
B B Tier Decent But Replaceable
B-Tier weapons are substitutes at best. These are easily replaceable due to their lackluster weapon skills or low stats.
