We offer in this article a classification of the weapons present in Genshin Impact through five Tier Lists. Each of these rankings will allow you to find the most powerful weapons in the game as well as their characteristics.
These Tier Lists are above all subjective, depending on our playing experience and based essentially on the power and usefulness of the different weapons in combat, whether in Dungeons, against Bosses or in Abyss mode. These rankings will change over time with the arrival of new weapons in Genshin Impact or as a result of possible balances.
