A-Tier: Stormbreaker Spear, Strategic Sword, Heavenquaker Spear, Infernal Twinblades
B-Tier: Thundercry Blade, Soulshade Umbrella
C-Tier: Ninefold Umbrella, Mortal Rope Dart, Inkwell Fan

S-Tier Weapons
The top weapons are the Nameless Sword, the Nameless Spear, and the Panacea Fan. These are the best for handling any challenge. The Nameless Sword offers great mobility and high burst damage, making it versatile for both single foes and groups. Whether you’re battling mobs or bosses, it performs exceptionally well.

The Nameless Spear is another favorite, with impressive burst damage and superior range. Its charged attack is arguably the best in the game, forcing you to stay still as you unleash a flurry of spear strikes. It’s perfect for boss fights and endgame content.

The Panacea Fan stands out because it’s the best healing weapon available. While its damage isn’t very high, it can revive teammates and keep your squad alive longer. Pair it with another weapon to contribute more to damage, but its healing and cleansing abilities make it valuable in co-op play.

A-Tier Weapons
Still very powerful, these weapons include the Stormbreaker Spear, Strategic Sword, Heavenquaker Spear, and Infernal Twinblades.

The Stormbreaker Spear excels at defense and broad damage with its area attacks. It’s great at drawing attention during boss fights, although its single-hit damage isn’t as strong.

The Strategic Sword, similar to the Nameless Sword, focuses on damage-over-time effects rather than raw power. It can produce big burst moments, but generally doesn’t match the top-tier weapons.

The Heavenquaker Spear shines with its area damage and attack buff that scales with hits landed. While it’s less effective against tough bosses, it’s good at applying steady pressure and breaking enemy guards.

The Infernal Twinblades are the fastest weapons, offering impressive damage for their speed. They require precise combo skills and can be risky since mistakes can lead to quick failure. Mastering these weapons can be very rewarding but challenging.

B-Tier Weapons
The Thundercry Blade and Soulshade Umbrella are decent but have limitations.

The Thundercry Blade is a good tank choice, providing shields and damage reduction. Its main damage comes from charged attacks, so maintaining those charges can be tricky during tough fights.

The Soulshade Umbrella is unique because it can heal allies, not just deal damage. However, its healing output is modest, and it requires practice to use effectively. It might be better suited for players who enjoy supportive roles.

C-Tier Weapons
The Ninefold Umbrella, Inkwell Fan, and Mortal Rope Dart generally underperform outside specific situations.

The Ninefold Umbrella looks flashy but is slow and deals less damage than its animations suggest. Its ranged attack style is interesting, but it needs buffs to be competitive.

The Inkwell Fan is visually impressive but struggles against groups of enemies and has inconsistent launch effects. Some foes even resist being launched.

The Mortal Rope Dart is another cool-looking weapon but lacks the stats to shine. Skilled players can make it deadly, especially in PvP, but it demands perfect timing and mastery of combos.

Summary
Choosing the right weapon is key to success in Where Winds Meet. Focusing on the top-tier weapons will give you the best chance to excel through challenging content. With practice, mastering these weapons can make your adventure much more rewarding.
