Current ranking status
Needs verification: no weapon or unit rankings have been confirmed by this site. This page does not assign names to tiers or present estimated damage numbers as measured results. The game is in active development, so a ranking also needs a patch reference and an explanation of its test conditions.
Before investing resources, read the item description in the current game build and compare it with recent developer announcements. A screenshot from an older build may not describe the item you have today.
How the S to D scale will work
The letters below describe our editorial criteria. They are not published rankings of any current item.
- S: a consistently strong choice in the tested situations, with clear advantages and manageable costs.
- A: performs well across most tested situations, but has a meaningful limitation or setup requirement.
- B: useful in a particular role or when paired with the right setup; less flexible outside it.
- C: requires more investment or has a narrower use than the alternatives tested alongside it.
- D: offers limited value under the recorded conditions; a future change could alter that assessment.
We will explain an item’s weaknesses as well as its strengths. A rare item will not receive a high tier simply because it is rare.
What a comparison needs to record
The item and the game build
An entry needs the exact in-game name, the build being tested, its acquisition route and the source for any stated statistics. If the same name refers to several variants, the variant must be identified.
The test conditions
Level, upgrades, equipment and the encounter all affect a comparison. We need a repeatable setup before we can say one option performs better than another. We will keep untested assumptions labeled rather than fill the gaps with invented numbers.
Scaling and practical use
Useful reasons should answer practical questions: does the item require a specific setup, does it remain useful after more investment, and where does it become difficult to use? These questions matter more than a letter on its own.
How to use a future ranking
Start with the explanation for the situation you actually play. Check the verification date, then compare the requirements with the resources you have. Avoid replacing a working setup solely because another item appears one tier higher.
