Vampire Survivors, a popular indie roguelite, offers a wide selection of new weapons, making it difficult to choose the best loadout. Do not worry, this is why we made the Vampire Survivors Weapon Tier List.
Best Weapons in Vampire Survivors: Ranked (March 2024)
Similar to our Character Tier List, we’ll lay out the best weapons you can obtain in Vampire Survivors, including the newest weapons added with the most recent patch. As per usual, clarifications of the Tiers are below.
Patch 1.9 is out, and a few new weapons and evolutions are out.
Vampire Survivors Weapon Tier List Tiers Explained
- S++ Tier: Crem De La Creme, OP stuff
- S+ Tier: Top-of-the-line weapons
- S Tier: Great weapons
- A Tier: Still good, but not overpowered
- B Tier: Average weapons
- C Tier: Weakest weapons in the game
Due to most weapons in Vampire Survivors having evolutions or being unions and gifts, it will be a bit messy and chaotic as we dive deep into this weapon Tier List (thank you for your understanding in advance). There will, of course, be some divisive opinions in the Tier List, but such is the case with every Tier List in the world, where there’s subjectivity in bigger or smaller amounts. Stuff is sorted by Tiers, without any specific order within each Tier.
The Tier List has been updated accordingly. Flash Arrow and Millionaire are just personal preferences, and the SpellString, SpellStream, and SpellStrike gang would probably be at the bottom of the S+ list because of their progressive power increase.
I have not ranked the secret weapon of Genevieve and Je-Ne-Viv as they are not obtainable through other means, but think of it as S++ easily since it’s better than Gorgeous Moon. Also, I’ve not rated the character-exclusive weapons, such as those from Bone Mortaccio, O’Sole Meeo, and Yatta Cavallo, which are quite powerful but inaccessible by other characters. Enjoy!

Garlic might be one of those divisive weapons, but let’s face it: It’s brutally useful when you are starting Vampire Survivors, it provides easy starts to your runs, and its evolution heals you. Clock Lancet is about the same. It buys you enough time when your characters are weaker and allows you to extend your runs, but later down the line, you only ever need it if you want to toy around with an Arcana that grants Clock Lancet’s attacks some actual damage or to Kill the Reaper (Red Death).
Most of the best weapons in Vampire Survivors that top our weapons Tier List are evolutions of base weapons. If you’re still early in the game, you can get a peek at discovered weapon evolutions and some hints at undiscovered evolutions through the Grim Grimoire relic, obtainable by first picking it up in the Inlaid Library stage. You can also check out our guide on weapon evolutions for a full list of weapons that can evolve in Vampire Survivors and their requirements.
