S-Tier Weapons:
The Bow maintains its dominance from Monster Hunter World, offering safe, long-range damage and strong DPS-boosting skills. The Gunlance boasts exceptionally high DPS, while the Long Sword excels with its parry and counterattack capabilities.
A-Tier Weapons:
The Great Sword possesses the highest potential DPS, but its slow speed and demanding skill requirement may make S-tier weapons more practical for many players. The Hunting Horn shines in multiplayer, offering substantial damage alongside valuable support and utility for teammates. The Charge Blade provides defensive options and versatility, though mastering its dual modes requires practice.
