Weapons Tier List for Where Winds Meet
We’ll divide the weapons into three tiers or categories, which are:
- S tier: The weapons in this category are the best, especially when you want to dominate the endgame PvE content.
- A tier: These weapons might not be as good as those in the first tier, but they’re still great choices.
- B tier: While you can still create builds around the weapons in this tier, they aren’t as versatile as those in the S and A tiers. Also, the effectiveness of these weapons relies more on the player’s skills than on the weapon upgrade paths or moves themselves.

S Tier Weapons
| Weapon | Reason for Ranking | Pros | Cons |
|---|---|---|---|
| Strategic Sword | This melee weapon has spectacular mobility, and is the best weapon in terms of single target DPS. When combined with the Heavenquake Spear, the weapon’s effectiveness increases further. Both of these weapons and stack and trigger Bleed effects. | Mastering the weapon isn’t difficult. Increased mobility. Very high Boss DPS. | Reduced Survivability. Limited Support. |
| Heavenquake Spear | The Heavenquake Spear is another melee weapon. However, it is highly versatile, being able to produce great damage, both in AoE and single target circumstances. Use it alongside the Strategic Sword to take advantage of their Bleed abilities. | Mastering the weapon isn’t difficult. High Boss DPS. High AoE damage. | Reduced Survivability. Limited Support. |
| Infernal Twinblades | A highly difficult weapon to master, but can be quite rewarding to use as well. If you can manage to use it properly the weapon has a transformation that grants AoE damage and excellent single target DPS, while being highly mobile. | Increased mobility. High Boss DPS. High AoE damage. | Highest difficulty. Limited Support. |
| Stormbreaker Spear | If you’re looking for a weapon that dominates endgame content, we suggest picking the Stormbreaker Spear. This one has a significant taunt range, which gives it a great crowd control ability. | Improved Survivability. Great for Crowd Control. Mastering the weapon isn’t difficult. High AoE damage. | Limited Boss DPS. Limited Mobility. |
| Panacea Fan | This is the greatest support weapon in the game. It’s a weapon that’s focused solely around healing. Using it also allows you to revive fallen members of the team. Panacea Fan is the only weapon in Where Winds Meet that’s capable of doing this. However, it’s one of the poorest weapon choices in terms of solo DPS. | Provides considerable Healing. Excellent Support weapon. Mastering the weapon isn’t difficult. Improves Survivability. | Low Mobility. Very low damage. |
A Tier Weapons
Next up in our weapons tier list for Where Winds Meet are the A-tier weapons.
| Weapon | Reason for Ranking | Pros | Cons |
|---|---|---|---|
| Thundercry Blade | Thundercry Blade is perhaps the greatest weapon in the game for story progression. It deals more damage to foes and offers better crowd control than even the Stormbreaker Spear. Similarly, the Thundercry Blade has excellent Shields. However, it isn’t nearly as effective for endgame content. | Mastering the weapon isn’t difficult. Improves Survivability. Great for Crowd Control. Excellent AoE damage. | Low Mobility. Low Boss DPS. |
| Vernal Umbrella | Vernal Umbrella is a fine choice as an early-game weapon. However, it performs quite admirably in the late game stages too. It has decent DPS, crowd control abilities and mobility. However, it can’t compare to the Strategic Sword or the Heavenquake Spear in terms of its utility. | Mastering the weapon isn’t difficult. Improves Survivability. Great for Crowd Control. Excellent AoE damage. High Mobility. Good Boss DPS. | Limited Survivability. |
| Nameless Spear | The Nameless Spear is a great option if you’re looking for a weapon that dominates AoE situations. It has several attacks specifically for crowd control. Also, the weapon’s endurance restoration capabilities make it a good choice for story progression. However, it isn’t as great when it comes to single target DPS. | Mastering the weapon isn’t difficult. Great for Crowd Control. High AoE damage. Great Utility. | Limited Boss DPS. Low Survivability. |
| Soulshade Umbrella | This is primarily a support weapon that can provide DPS boosts and healing to allies. It can’t match the healing offered by the Panacea Fan, but its damage buff effects make it a worthy choice. | Mastering the weapon isn’t difficult. Provides decent Healing. Excellent Support weapon. Improves Survivability. | Limited Mobility. |
B Tier Weapons
| Weapon | Reason for Ranking | Pros | Cons |
|---|---|---|---|
| Nameless Sword | The Nameless Sword specializes in creating Qi Shields, thereby improving Survivability. It also has good single target damage and mobility to boot. Pair it with the Nameless Spear to help trigger that weapon’s effects. | Good Boss DPS. High Mobility. Improves Survivability. Mastering the weapon isn’t difficult. | Very low AoE damage and potential. |
| Inkwell Fan | The most beginner-friendly option, since its playstyle overlooks mistakes. Its strength lies in effective controlling crowds, dealing significant damage against multiple targets, and high mobility attacks. However, against bosses, the Inkwell Fan can’t do much. | Mastering the weapon isn’t difficult. High Mobility. High AoE damage. Great for Crowd Control. | Low Boss DPS. Limited Survivability. |
| Mortal Rope | Another melee weapon, the Mortal Rope is highly difficult to use and master. However, if you can manage to develop your skills around using it, the weapon is quite good for sheer damage against bosses. | Decent Crowd Control. High Boss DPS. High Mobility. | Highly difficult to master its kit. Minimal AoE damage. Low Survivability. |
