Our Elden Ring Weapon Tier List 2024 has the answer for you!

Elden Ring Weapon Tier List 2024 - Best Weapons for Elden Ring DLC

The 308 weapons in Elden Ring were carefully evaluated based on a wide variety of factors. Their unique movesets, ability to effectively dispatch different enemies, damage output, range, reliability, and even visual design were all considered. As such, this review should not be viewed as the definitive ranking. While attempting to remain impartial, certain details were inevitably omitted or glossed over due to the extensive scope. Players are encouraged to experiment with different armaments to discover their suitable playstyle. No single source can capture the nuances of each tool's performance across all situations. The rankings serve best as a starting point for discussion rather than prescription. As with any extensive rating system, certain criteria were unavoidably privileged over others during the assessment.

We divided all Elden Ring weapons into seven categories ranging from the most to least powerful:

S-Tier includes the most devastating tools. They deal massive amounts of damage while maintaining excellent durability.
A-Tier weapons are still quite potent but may deal slightly less damage. However, they also tend to be heavier and require more advanced techniques to wield effectively.
B-Tier options provide balanced performance suitable for all challenges. While less powerful than S or A-Tier, they maintain reasonable damage output while proving lighter and simpler to use.
C-Tier represents the average assortment, dealing average damage but prioritizing lightweight designs and approachability.
D-Tier lags below average, dealing less damage or possessing drawbacks that make them more difficult to employ successfully.
F-Tier contains those arms entirely unsuitable for combat as they fail to deal meaningful blows or withstand usage. Players are advised to seek alternatives.
