Bloodborne Weapon Tier List

This Bloodborne weapon tier list will go through the best weapons in the game to help you decide what to upgrade and use.

Overall, the best weapons in Bloodborne are the Whirligig Saw, Ludwig’s Holy Blade, and the Holy Moonlight Sword.

Let’s review all the weapons in the game and showcase what makes the top choices stand out.

Bloodborne S Tier Weapons (Best in the Game)

Bloodborne weapon tier list - best weapons in the game.

Starting with S-Tier options, these are the best weapons in the game and should be upgraded to increase your chances of beating bosses.

  • Ludwig’s Holy Blade
  • Holy Moonlight Sword
  • Whirligig Saw

Let’s explain in detail what makes these three weapons stand out as the best in the game overall.

Ludwig’s Holy Blade

Ludwig’s Holy Blade scales with Strength and Skill and can deal exceptionally high damage.

It can deal with mobs and bosses efficiently, as its move set offers AoE damage, long reach, and even rapid attacks.

Holy Moonlight Sword

The Holy Moonlight Sword scales with Strength, Skill, and Arcane, which makes it an extremely versatile weapon.

With the right build, this weapon can deal the highest damage in Bloodborne.

Whirligig Saw

If I had to choose only one, the best weapon in Bloodborne is the Whirligig Saw.

Both in normal and trick form, this weapon has amazing attack patterns that deal AoE damage, can take down enemies and bosses easily, and can inflict phenomenal single-target damage in Saw form.

Bloodborne A Tier Weapons

Bloodborne weapon tier list - best weapons in the game.

While slightly weaker than S-Tier options, A-Tier weapons offer great stats overall, and you’re missing out if you haven’t tried them.

  • Chikage
  • Saw Spear
  • Saw Cleaver
  • Church Pick
  • Blade of Mercy
  • Rakuyo
  • Hunter Axe

Bloodborne B Tier Weapons

Moving on to B-Tier weapons, these are more situational and can be used if you like their design and attacks but will be less valuable compared to previous options.

  • Burial Blade
  • Bloodletter
  • Kirkhammer
  • Stake Driver
  • Beasthunter Saif
  • Amygdalan Arm
  • Boom Hammer

Bloodborne C Tier Weapons

C-Tier weapons are fairly underwhelming since they lack damage or attack speed (or sometimes both) and should only be used if you really like their design.

  • Tonitrus
  • Simon’s Bowblade
  • Threaded Cane
  • Logarius’ Wheel
  • Reiterpallasch

Bloodborne D Tier Weapons

Lastly, D-Tier weapons should be avoided as they’re considered the weakest in the game. These should be used only if you’re punishing yourself or doing some hardcore challenge.

  • Beast Cutter
  • Rifle Spear
  • Beast Claw

Wrapping up

To summarize this Bloodborne weapon tier list, the best weapons are the Whirligig Saw, Ludwig’s Holy Blade, and the Holy Moonlight Sword.
