Papa West This is what happens when a robot cowboy decides that subtlety is overrated and solves all problems with bigger guns and bigger explosions. Between casting spells and barely surviving waves of enemies, your weapon choices range from fun to essential for survival.
Some guns feel gimmicky, others require a bit more refinement, and some are just here for ambiance. The trick is to know which is which before your enemies kneel and you're out of options. This tier list categorizes every weapon in the game and ranks them by performance, so you can spend less time guessing and more time deliberately causing trouble.

Complete list of weapon classes
Here are the best weapons in Far Far West, ranked by overall effectiveness.
How tiers work
Below is a brief breakdown of the rankings for each tier to help you better understand which weapons are worth prioritizing.
- S tier: The best weapon in the game. It dominates most encounters with minimal drawbacks and is very effective in both solo and co-op play.
- Grade A: A strong, reliable choice that performs well in most situations but may require some positioning, skill, or synergy to reach its full potential.
- B tier: A sturdy mid-range weapon. These are reliable, but tend to be overpowered by higher tier options or require a specific build to shine.
- C-tier: A niche weapon or early game weapon that struggles to keep up with harder fights. It can still be useful, but it usually outperforms other choices.
