Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 2 Weapon Tier List

This list ranks the weapons from SS Tier to C Tier. Currently, there are 17 weapons in the game, including a few that you can unlock through the Rivalries Board using Rivalry Points.

If new weapons are introduced during this season, we will check them out and add them to the list.

The categories are as follows:

SS Tier: Weapons so powerful they seem broken, often mythic boss weapons.
S Tier: Strong weapons in any rarity that players of all levels can use.
A Tier: Very good weapons, especially when at higher rarities like Legendary or Epic.
B Tier: Average tools with moderate power, suitable for experienced players.
C Tier: Early-game or situational weapons; better replaced by higher-tier options.

SS Tier

- Chaos Reloader Shotgun: Deals extremely high damage, almost a guaranteed one-shot with headshots.
- Vector 7 DMR: A popular long-range rifle. Shows its worth at mid-range as well when bullet drop is considered.
- Obliterator Shotgun: A mythic boss item, rivaling the Chaos Reloader for power.
- Ice King’s Gloves: Mythic weapon with multiple abilities; a must-have if you defeat the boss.

S Tier

- Combat Assault Rifle: Fast rate of fire, high damage, low recoil. Now buffed and very effective at shooting down players in the sky.
- Nemesis Assault Rifle: Favored by players who prefer controlled, slower shots.
- Thunder Burst SMG: Now a hit-scan weapon, very accurate at mid-distance.
- Tracking Rifle: Great for long-range combat with tracking capabilities. Needs skill to master.

A Tier

- Twin Hammer Shotgun: Not as strong as others but still a solid choice.
- Twin Mag SMG: Decent at higher rarities, despite being less powerful than some top-tier weapons.

B Tier

- Rocket Launcher: Has the potential for massive damage, but situational.
- Shockwave Rocket Launcher: Can cause big splash damage but requires skill to use effectively.
- Mammoth Pistol: High damage but slow fire rate; better left to experienced players.
- Power Gloves: Better for traversal, but can deal damage.

C Tier

- Pistol: Good enough early on, but usually replaced by better guns.
- Bouncing Boomstick: Like dynamite but more unpredictable. Good for situational use, but can backfire on inexperienced players.
