| Weapon | Tier Updates |
|---|---|
 Venial Sinscales
|
 (New) • Ranks at SS-tier due to being an extremely effective weapon for any skill-reliant DPS character. It is even better for Electro characters, as Plunge Attacks further increase Skill Intensity. |
 Trigon Muse
|
(New) • Ranks at C-tier due to being nothing more than a ranged sidearm that does not increase any character stats. |
 Eternal Farewell
|
(New) • Ranks at SS-tier due to being an extremely effective weapon for Electro characters, granting separate buffs to impactful stats. |
 Skyfall Duality
|
 (New) • Ranks only at C-tier due to it being a lackluster weapon that is not really optimal for any character. |
 Elpides Abound
|
(Promoted) • Promoted due to its dominance as the best weapon for one of the best characters (Psyche). |
 Shackle of Lonewolf
|
(Promoted) • Promoted due to its usefulness as a weapon for Tabethe, an impactful support. |
 Fathomless Sharkgaze
|
(Demoted) • Demoted from S-tier due to Skill Range not being as valuable on weapons as initially thought. |
 Withershade
|
(Demoted) • Demoted from S-tier due to Skill Range not being as valuable on weapons as initially thought. |
 Remanent Reminiscence
|
(Demoted) • Demoted from S-tier due to it being BiS on a couple of characters, with none of them being particularly top-tier. |
 Aureate Yore
|
(Promoted) • Promoted from B-tier due to Skill Damage being a better stat for Weapon DMG-oriented characters than initially thought. |
 Exiled Fangs
|
(Demoted) • Demoted from A-tier due to it being an alright but not BiS weapon for Weapon DMG-oriented characters. It is not even the best weapon for its signature character, Outsider. |
 Undying Oneiros
|
(Demoted) • Demoted from A-tier due not because it is bad, but because the characters that benefit from having increased HP are not very strong in the current meta. |
 Punitive Inferno
|
(Demoted) • Demoted from B-tier due it being outshadowed by the Undying Oneiros, even on its signature weapon wielder, Hellfire. |
 Ingenious Tactics
|
(Demoted) • Demoted from B-tier due it being viable on just Randy, who struggles in the current meta. |
 Wandering Rose
|
(Demoted) • Demoted from B-tier due its weapon ability being extremely niche, with no characters having this as their best weapon.. |
 Destructo
|
(Demoted) • Demoted from S-tier due to Skill Range not being as valuable on weapons as initially thought. It is the BiS ranged weapon for Rebecca and nobody else. |
 Silverwhite Edict
|
(Demoted) • Demoted from B-tier due it being nothing more than a ranged sidearm with useless stats outside of ranged combat. |
 Searing Sandwhisper
|
(Demoted) • Demoted from B-tier due it being nothing more than a ranged sidearm with useless stats outside of ranged combat. |
Weapon Tier List Criteria and Notes
Ranking System
| SS Tier |
Exceptional weapons that stand out as the most effective in the game. These weapons boast the highest values of damage and utility, with unique abilities that make them extremely useful be it against numerous mobs, elite enemies, or bosses. |
|---|---|
 S Tier |
These weapons will help you clear most content with ease. These are all among the best weapons in their respective type, but are not quite as overpowered as the weapons in SS-Tier. |
 A Tier |
Weapons that only become strong with powerful Demon Wedges and upgrades to achieve similar performance as the other weapons in the upper tiers. While these may have features that are not very useful or stats that aren't too impressive, these weapons can still be classified among the best characters, but only when you have built them optimally. |
 B Tier |
Weapons with solid performance in the right situations. Weapons here might be situational picks that are not always optimal to play, but can perform quite well in the right circumstances. |
| C Tier |
These weapons have limited viability and are best used only if you lack better options. Unless these serve a specific niche in your team, it's recommended to replace them with higher-tier weapons as soon as possible. What holds these back is usually a lack of damage or other stats. These weapons may also have sub-optimal buffs that are lackluster or too situational for general use. |
