So you’ve just started playing Valheim and aren’t sure which weapons are good? Well, you’re in luck, as that’s exactly what our Valheim weapon tier list is here to help with. In this very guide, we rank all of the weapons from S tier to D tier, with S being best and D being worst. That way, you can focus on filling out your party with S and A tiers to ensure that you perform well, skipping the B-D tiers. We’ll also include a description of the tiers so you know what they actually mean.
Valheim is a very detailed survival MMORPG, where you play as a Viking. You spawn in a randomly generated world, and you’re forced to fend for yourself, building shelter and hunting for food. Defend your land from various dangerous beasts and goblins, and rank up your characters skills.
You can learn more about it on the game’s official website. We also recommend checking out our Boba Story codes guide, Blue Reflection Sun tier list, and our Taxi Boss codes guide.
Valheim Weapon Tier List
Before we move onto the tier list proper, here’s a description of how our tiering system works so that you can make sense of it.
What Do Our Tiers Mean?
Here’s a brief explanation of each of our tiers:
- S Tier: Weapons in this tier are the absolute best that the game has to offer. You should prioritise unlocking these and increasing their power. One of these can carry you through the entire game, and a full party will make most of the endgame content trivial – provided you focus on growing their power.
- A Tier: If your collection is lacking in S tiers, A tiers are great for filling gaps. These weapons are still great in their own right, but they just lack a little something when you compare them to an S tier. Use them when you need to, but drop them when you can.
- B Tier: During the early phases of the game, you’ll likely rely on a party of a single S tier and a bunch of B tiers. These weapons are quite easy to get, and are solid, if unremarkable. Definitely swap them out for A tiers and S tiers, but don’t be ashamed to use them if you need to.
- C Tier: This is when we get into ‘bad weapon’ territory. C tiers are, much like D tiers, some of the worst weapons in the game, but they often have niche uses. They might be really strong in a particular game mode, or during a certain phase of the game. Take a close look at their skills and judge accordingly.
- D Tier: Weapons in this tier are simply never worth using. They’re the worst weapons in the game, suffering from severe balance issues, and will underperform at all points in any modes. Don’t use them if you can avoid it.
S Tier

- Huntsman Bow
- Copper Knife
- Bronze Atgeir

Valheim Weapon Tier List FAQ
Still unsure about our tier list? Got questions about Valheim in general? Hopefully our tier list can help!
What’s A Tier List?
We should probably have answered this question at the beginning, eh? A tier list is, quite simply, a list of all of the characters/weapons/items in a specific game ranked from best to worst. In our case, S is the best weapons with D being the worst, and A, B, and C filling the gaps.
The purpose of a tier list is to help you determine which weapons to use at all stages of the game. We try and make our tier list as useful as possible by explaining our tier system.
For example, there are instances where certain weapons are excellent during the beginning of a game, but fade later on. Or, they could be good at a certain game mode. We’ll always try and make this clear.
How Did We Select Our Valheim Weapon Tier List?
We used a number of different sources when selecting our Valheim weapon tier list, but, primarily, we judge based on our personal experience with the game. As a result, it is bound to be quite a subjective list, but there’s no getting around that.
To determine the rankings, we both experiment with the weapons in the game (if unlocked), as well as theory-craft based on skill descriptions and raw statistics. That’s why you’ll see our tier list change so much when a game first launches, as we’re in the testing phase.
It’s also worth noting that we do scour other sites, like Reddit, for community feedback. If the general consensus is that a specific weapon is strong or weak, we will reflect that in our tier list. That way, it’s got a certain degree of objectivity.
We’ll wrap this section up by reminding you that tier lists are subjective by nature. Your experience may vary completely to ours, so take it with a pinch of salt.
When Do We Update Our Valheim Weapon Tier List?
You can expect to see an update to our Valheim tier list whenever a new weapon is introduced. It might take us a while to test the weapon for ourselves though, so expect a brief delay.
We also update the list whenever a big balance patch hits, as this will throw the meta out the window. Again, there may be a brief delay as we experiment with the changes and update our rankings.
