Genshin Impact has a library of weapons that continues to grow with every update. This tier list will continue to update with each new weapon that is introduced. It will contain a section for each type of weapon to have its own tier list and a section for new weapons that have yet to be tested to see where they will rank.

Tier List Explanation

This Genshin Impact weapons tier list will be split by weapon type and ideal roles they are best suited for, whether as a Main DPS, Sub DPS, or a Support weapon. There are five types of weapons, each with its own abilities and stats. These abilities are the main focus for sorting them by rank and role. The stronger the ability and the more characters the weapon can be paired with, the higher the weapon’s ranking will be assigned.

Some weapons may appear more than once, as any combination of Main DPS, Sub DPS, or Support, but will have a different rank based on their usefulness in that particular role.
