S-Tier
The Bow has maintained its dominance from *Monster Hunter World* into *Monster Hunter Wilds*. It's user-friendly and excels in dealing damage from a safe distance. Its skills significantly boost its DPS, making it a top choice.
The Gunlance and Long Sword are equally impressive. The Gunlance boasts one of the highest DPS values in the game, while the Long Sword is perfect for those who enjoy parrying and countering monster attacks.
A-Tier
The Great Sword, despite its low entry barrier and potential for the highest DPS, requires mastery to reach its full potential. It's slow and can be cumbersome, making S-Tier weapons often a more practical choice.
The Hunting Horn shines in multiplayer settings, not only dealing substantial damage but also offering significant utility and support to your teammates.
The Charge Blade is another noteworthy option, offering defensive capabilities and versatility. Mastering its dual modes can be challenging, but it's one of the most engaging weapons to use in *Monster Hunter Wilds*.
