Weapon Tier List

In Back 4 Blood, there is a whole arsenal of weapons that can be used in your fight to save humanity from extinction. Take a look at our Weapon Tier List to see which weapons we consider to be the best in the game.

In Back 4 Blood, not all the weapons will be available to you during gameplay. You will be given a small selection of guns and weapons when you start the campaign, and you will need to use them until you find something better. There are two ways in which to get weapons, they can either be found randomly during acts or in the stores that appear in certain safe houses and checkpoints. It is important to remember that rarity and attachments can boost the stats of a weapon considerably and is something you need to take into consideration. The following Weapon Tier List will tell you which top-tier weapons you should be keeping an eye out for during the campaign.
