Hey there! (^^)/

There’s no tier list per say given the fact that the weapons are there so as to give you the buffs that are missing on your team. As such, some will be more useful than others due to differing squads and usable units. However, there are some which were standouts due to how wildly used they were.

The Greatsword was a popular choice for newer players to SArc thanks to its Attack Debuff chance. This buff was a lifesaver given the fact that a), it was the first weapon to introduce it on its BB, making it readily available, and b), it allowed for an extra layer of mitigation.

The Star Bow was incredibly useful for its high ailment inflict chance and amazing DPS. It was especially useful against Grahdens in the Summoner’s Training Ground, and allowed you to blitz past a good chunk of the game.

The Dancing Blades were great since not only did they give normal attack hitcount boosts, but also gave pretty decent HC, BC, and Item drop rate boosts. The latter is what you’d like to focus on, since it made grinding for LS spheres so much easier - that is until we met materials only obtainable via chest drop.

The Radiant Longsword was a standout since not only did it give access to UBBs, but also brought top-tier offensive buffs given the fact that, at around this point, most only had around maxed 6*s to newly made 7*s. For many, it was their first UBB weapon.

Finally, the Ex Deus Gladius, mainly since it made the entire last chapter a joke - it freed up your mitigator spot, for one, and allowed access to UBBs.

I hope this helped! (^^)/
