V Rising Weapon Tier List: All Weapons Ranked from Worst to Best

A bit confused about what weapons to proceed with in V Rising? Fear not, fellow night creature. We have just the tier and the rank list of the weapons for you.

As we will encounter a variety of weapons in V Rising, we are bound to get distracted and fall into the pit of confusion. There are several gears and abilities along with weapons. Moreover, each weapon has its own ability and traits, not to miss the upgrading requirements as well.

There is also this combination duo. There will be devastating consequences if you can pair up your primary weapon with your secondary weapon based on their overall traits. Anyone who dares to stand in front of you will face devilish wrath. Well, you are a vampire, aren’t you?

I would suggest you study the weapons and other items a bit if you want to walk your path. Feel free to roam here if you need guidance. Now, this guide here is to let you know the differences between the weapons that you are going to see in V Rising. A tier list has been tried to make based on their abilities and a rank afterward. Let’s take you through this.

V Rising Weapon Tier List

You can go with any of these weapons. All of them are melee weapons except the Crossbow. This lad is a ranged weapon. Now, this tier list has been made for you to ease up your decision-making process. Let’s take a look at this.

TierWeapons
S-Tier (Best)Sword
A-Tier (Good)Spear, Ax, Mace,
B-Tier (Average)Crossbows, Reaper, Slasher

S-Tier (Best)

This tier has been made of weapons of devastating power. As this game is still a new addition to the market, there is a hope to see more unique weapons from time to time. Right at this moment, there wasn’t anything worthy other than the Mighty Sword in this tier list.

Sword

Sword is the perfect allrounder you will want to use in all formats. From career progress to the Massive Multiplayer arena, this lad has no issues at all. Thanks to Devs for letting us get this at the early stage of the game. The progress is much easier with this one; no lie about this.

SkillEffectCooldownCast Time
Primary AttackA melee combo of 3 hits deals 35% more damage on the first and second attack and 40% more damage on the final strike.0.2s
WhirlwindSlice the nearby foes by spinning right round. Deals 35% more damage for every 0.25s that lasts for 1 second.8sInstant
ShockwaveCasting for the first time sends a shockwave worth 70% more damage. Recasting makes the foe teleport with 25% damage.8s0.6s

A-Tier (Good)

This tier is mostly for secondary weapons only. In rare cases, you can sub them as primary. To be specific, these are the weapons that you want to use for every possible situation. However, a certain trait did not let that happen. These exist, fellow vampires. These do exist.

Spear

The spear is only used for combat. For the sole purpose of fighting, this lad can prove its worth during boss battles. As it has an immediate impact, foes will have a hard time standing in front of it. Moreover, the added skills are no lesser threat than the other weapons.

SkillEffectCooldownCast Time
Primary AttackA melee combo of 3 hits deals 40% more damage on the first and second attack and 50% more damage on the final strike.0.3s
A Thousand SpearCasting for the first time, deals 30% more damage for 8 times. Recasting makes a thrust attack worth 50% more damage while knocking the foes to the backfoot.8s0.35s
HarpoonPulls the enemy closer after throwing a successful attack worth 70% more damage.8s0.8s

Ax

This two-handed weapon might remind you of Assassins Creed; somehow, I guess. This pair doesn’t stand up for heavy damage but fills that gap with more mobility and dexterity than the others.

SkillEffectCooldownCast Time
Primary AttackA melee combo of 3 hits deals 45% more damage on the first and second attack and 55% more damage on the final strike.0.25s
FrenzyDash forward, and strike worth 100% more damage. Moreover, movement increases by 25%, and AP increases by 30% for 0.8s.8s0.3s
X-StrikeThrow the axes to deal 85% more damage that slowdowns the foe for 1.5s.8s0.5s

Mace

This lad is slower than the others but hits harder than the others. This tank-type lad is the perfect choice as a secondary weapon, just after Ax, though. A group of foes stands no chance against this pair with an ideal combination.

SkillEffectCooldownCast Time
Primary AttackA melee combo of 3 hits deals 50% more damage on the first and second attack and 60% more damage on the final strike.0.35s
Crushing BlowFollows the cursor and slams the ground that deals 110% worth of damage. Moreover, it imposes a snare that fades after 2s.8s0.7
SmackSmacks foes in front and knocks them back with 50% more damage.9s0.35s

B-Tier (Average)

No hate for these tiers. Truth be told, you will have a pretty hard time using them as subs for secondary weapons. A bit worse, I would say, from the tier above when it comes to getting the job done without sweating yourself.

Crossbows

Crossbows do send crosses from a distance but at what cost? The firing rate is slower, and that makes you slower. This guy has no attack combo, even though the bolts it fires deal heavy damage.

SkillEffectCooldownCast Time
Primary AttackA single shot worth 115% more damage.0.55s1s
SnapshotA quick shot worth 75% more damage.8s0.3s
Rain of BoltsA 5 bolts volley rain downs on foes that deal 40% more damage.8s0.4s

Reaper

This lad is the same as Mace. Just think of the guy from the meme who is opening the bottle of champagne while standing on the 3rd podium. Reaper is that guy.

SkillEffectCooldownCast Time
Primary AttackA melee combo of 3 hits deals 50% more damage on the first and second attack and 55% more damage on the final strike.0.3s
Tendon SwingSwinging the reaper deals 125% worth more damage and knocks the nearby enemies.8s0.2s
Howling ReaperThrowing the reaper makes it spin right round and deals 20% more damage in every 0.25s. Moreover, it slows down the enemy.8s0.5s

Slasher

This dagger boy can be a choice for stealth. Deals comparatively low damage and a child’s toy in front of a herd. Well, it got more cooldown time than the other ones. What less can be the expectation?

SkillEffectCooldownCast Time
Primary AttackA melee combo of 3 hits deals 27.5% more damage on the first and second attack and 35% more damage on the final strike.00.15s
Elusive StrikeSlash and dash back and forth that deals 60% more damage8s0.2s
CamouflageMovement speed increases by 25% for 3s. The next attack deals 80% more damage.10sInstant
