S-Tier Weapons:

The Bow maintains its dominance from Monster Hunter World, offering high damage from a safe distance and strong skill synergy for increased DPS. The Gunlance boasts one of the game's highest DPS values. The Long Sword excels with its parry and counterattack capabilities.

A-Tier Weapons:

The Great Sword possesses the highest potential DPS but requires significant skill to master due to its slow, unwieldy nature. The Hunting Horn is invaluable in multiplayer, offering both substantial damage and crucial support for teammates. The Charge Blade provides defensive options and versatility, although mastering its dual modes takes practice.
