Tier | Weapon |
---|---|
S | Bow Gunlance Long Sword |
A | Great Sword Charge Blade Hunting Horn Dual Blades |
B | Sword and Shield Insect Glaive |

S-Tier
The Bow has maintained its dominance from *Monster Hunter World* into *Monster Hunter Wilds*. It's user-friendly and excels in dealing damage from a safe distance, with skills that significantly boost its DPS, making it a top-tier choice.
The Gunlance and Long Sword also shine brightly in the S-Tier. The Gunlance boasts one of the highest DPS rates in the game, while the Long Sword is ideal for those who enjoy parrying and countering monster attacks.
A-Tier
The Great Sword, despite having a low entry barrier and the potential for the highest DPS, requires significant mastery to reach its full potential. Its slow and unwieldy nature often makes S-Tier weapons a more practical choice.
The Hunting Horn stands out in multiplayer scenarios, delivering substantial damage while offering valuable support and utility to your team.
The Charge Blade is another A-Tier gem, offering defensive capabilities and versatility. Mastering its dual modes might take time, but it's one of the most engaging weapons to use in *Monster Hunter Wilds*.
