Weapon Refinery Tier List

SS Rank - Absolutely Refine

Weapon Skill Hero With This Skill

The weapons in the SS Tier are weapons that you should definitely refine if you have the materials needed. Each one of them has an extremely powerful effect that gives a huge advantage to its wielder, so prioritize the refinement of these weapons before doing any others.

S Rank - Highly Recommended

Weapon Skill Hero With This Skill

The weapons listed in the S Tier have very powerful effects that can be gained in the Weapon Refinery, granted that they are not quite as powerful as the ones listed in the SS Tier. Every one of them has an effect that is easily used in battle and can be equipped by a versatile hero, giving them a high priority in the Weapon Refinery.

A Rank - Worth Refining

Weapon Skill Hero With This Skill

The weapons listed in the A Tier are very powerful if used correctly. If you use any of the heroes listed above very often then we recommend taking their weapon to the refinery, but if not, you do not need to worry about refining their weapon.

B Rank - Medium Priority

Weapon Skill Hero With This Skill

The weapons listed in the B Tier are not as powerful as those in the A or S tiers, but are almost always a good option for the heroes wielding them. They can perform with or without their special refine, or even with a different inherited weapon. You should only refine the weapons in this tier if you use the hero frequently or if you have plenty of resources to spare.

C Rank and Below - Lower Priority

The weapons not listed in this page are either in the C Tier or below. These weapons should mainly only be refined if you have already done so for all of the heroes you frequently use the the higher tiers and you still have some refining materials to spare. Of course you should refine the weapons in this tier if you use a hero that appears here very often, but if not, you should only do so when you have plenty of extra materials.

Medeus & legendary ninian's refined weapons both seem better than zeke's to me (maybe not the refine itself, tho). To have them both with the same rating as legendary shez seems wild to me. If anything, L!Shez's refine should be a B at best, IMO.

forgot to mention that NY velouria's refine gets a B. That's insane to me.
