Weapon tier list

These ranks compare each weapon family before a specific aspect and build reshape it. Use them to choose what to learn next, not to replace the aspect guide.

What do you want from the run?

Safest ranks the options that give a player the most room to recover from positioning, timing, and resource mistakes. The order combines each published tier judgment with how often the option is favored by the safer authored aspect plans. Within each tier, reading order runs from best to weakest.
