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 feels best for you.
I personally favored the Switch Axe despite its lower damage, simply because it's fun. Here's the tier list:
Tier | Weapon |
---|---|
S | Bow, Gunlance, Long Sword |
A | Great Sword, Charge Blade, Hunting Horn, Dual Blades |
B | Sword and Shield, Insect Glaive |
C | Lance, Switch Axe, Light Bowgun, Heavy Bowgun, Hammer |
The Bow maintains its dominance from *Monster Hunter World*, offering safe, long-range damage and skill-boosted DPS. The Gunlance boasts incredibly high DPS, while the Long Sword excels with its parry and counter capabilities.
The Great Sword, despite high DPS potential, requires mastery due to its slow speed. Other S-Tier options often prove superior. The Hunting Horn shines in multiplayer, offering significant damage and support. The Charge Blade's defensive capabilities and versatile dual modes make it a fun and rewarding choice, although mastering the mode switching takes practice.
