W-Engine Tier List Criteria

How Game8 Ranks W-Engines

Tier 0 Tier 0 Best of the Best W-Engines
W-Engines in this tier provide the best stats for agents that are suitable to it. These are weapons you would want to go for to boost DPS or increase the overall effectiveness of your character.
Tier 1 Tier 1 Great W-Engine Choices
W-Engines in this tier are impactful choices that can be replaced for Tier 0 W-Engines if you don't have them. They provided great stats and, when used in accordance with an agent's kit, will carry a whole fight throughout the game.
Tier 2 Tier 2 Niche But Still Decent
W-Engines here are decent weapons. However, they find their full potential on specific characters, so its overall effectiveness is not for everyone.
Tier 3 Tier 3 Low Benefits But Still Doable
W-Engines in this tier are those weapons that give low benefits when equipped. You would generally use lots of resources to make them usable.
