Monster Hunter Wilds Weapon Tier List (Best Weapons to Use)

While *Monster Hunter Wilds* lacks PvP, choosing the right weapons is crucial for efficient hunts. This tier list ranks *Monster Hunter Wilds* weapons based on damage, versatility, and skills. Remember, every weapon type is viable; choose what suits your playstyle best.

I personally preferred the Switch Axe throughout, despite its lower damage output – it's just fun! Here's the tier list:

TierWeapon
SBow, Gunlance, Long Sword
AGreat Sword, Charge Blade, Hunting Horn, Dual Blades
BSword and Shield, Insect Glaive
CLance, Switch Axe, Light Bowgun, Heavy Bowgun, Hammer

S-Tier

The Bow maintains its dominance from *Monster Hunter World*, excelling at ranged damage and boasting easy-to-learn mechanics and high DPS-boosting skills. The Gunlance boasts some of the game's highest DPS, while the Long Sword offers parrying and counterattack capabilities.

A-Tier

The Great Sword, despite high DPS potential, requires mastery due to its slow, unwieldy nature. Other S-Tier options often outperform it. The Hunting Horn shines in multiplayer, offering significant damage and valuable support for teammates. The Charge Blade, with its defensive capabilities and dual modes, provides versatility but requires practice to master.

This concludes our *Monster Hunter Wilds* weapon tier list. For more game tips and information, including armor sets and Armor Sphere acquisition, check out The Escapist.
