Hi Everyone,
I thought it would be a good idea to pool current weapons to make an almost tier-list in terms of weapons to prioritise getting and using. Obviously, there are always weapons that are good and bad in certain scenarios, however thought it would stimulate good community discussion.Points to note

Just some things to note
  1. Obviously some weapons are not obtainable at the time E.g. Rosita Rifle - But included incase NG release a Bundle version of it 
  2. Some weapons may be duplicate or re-skin of something (didnt wanna spam the list with the 3 variants of say the Saviour handgun)
  3. ive tried to limit these weapons on the "Unique" weapons you get from events / Black market / Paid bundles
  4. Traits obviously matter ! However, didnt wanna make the list so complex putting in two varaints of Obliterator for example. Ive just tried to focus it on the base weapon ./ best available set (E.g. Bulldozer - The one with crippling instead of Piercing) 

Hope you all can have some input :) 

Ive split this into 3 categories -
A Tier = Weapons to prioritise getting / utilise 
B Tier = Weapons which have their strengths in scenarios - However wouldn’t break the bank in getting these
C = Weapons if you see in Bundles/Black market, i would happily just ignore these outright as they are generally beaten by A/B tier weapons

Assault

A Tier - Decimator / Rosita's Assault Rifle

B Tier = Bulldozer Shotgun (Status) / Daryl's Assault Rifle / Obliterator /

C Tier = Dixieland BBQ / Eugene's Pickle Jar / Light Machine Gun / The Reckonin'

Hunter

A Tier - Harpoon Gun / [GW] 7mm Harrier (Status) / Festive Shotgun

B Tier = Starbound Rifle / Buckshot Shotgun / Scoped Crossbow

C Tier = Ornate Shotgun / Devil's Torch / Scoped Crossbow / Flaming Crossbow

Shooter

A Tier - Saviour Handgun / Winter Bow

B Tier = The Pulverizer / Blizzard Pistol

C Tier = Spear Gun / Scoped 9mm / Flaming Crossbow Pistol / Hunting Bow .

Bruiser

A Tier - Luke's Gear Mace / Winter Hockey Stick + Staff / Shield

B Tier = Festive Lucille

C Tier = Zweihander / Rosita's Macuahuitl /

Warrior

A Tier - Morningstar / Dragons Tongue

B Tier = Chainsaw

C Tier = Obsidian Ripper

Scout

A Tier - Crescent Edge / Kingdom Spear / Mercers Axe

B Tier = Bayonet Musket / Sawtooth Spike / Ornate Bident

C Tier = Tenderizer / Pitchfork / Deadly Spike

Hope you all can give constructive feedback to the above list as im not fully knowledgeable of all weapons but tried my best from talking with Guild / Experimenting / Reading other posts. Have i missed anything out / anything you would change from your game experience?

    Macuahuitl is a bruiser weapon. 
    I'd put obliterator and hazard bulldozer in tier a along with decimator and RAR, all are #1 choices depending on the mission.
    Shane's buckshot with concussion and fire is better than the festive shotty imo.

    Also Daryl's assault rifle is a necessary weapon on some missions, I couldn't have done round 80 master mission on the whole 9 yards without it.

    Thanks Stalker! No idea how Rosita weapon ended up there! 
    Could deffo see the Obliterator given its range and syngery for more safe and consistent charge up points. Wasnt 100% sure on DAR as it saw it being more overridden in most cases though appreciate you noting how its benefit :) Nice one on the challenge!

    The Dragons Tongue has been great for a long time, but it is a B now. The MS is alone at the top.
