This guide explains the best weapons Tier List in The Forge, a Roblox game where players mine ores and craft tools to fight enemies. Weapons are ranked in tiers based on damage per second, or DPS, which measures how much harm they cause quickly. The list uses information from guides updated in early 2026, after the Winter and Raven updates that added spears, new colossals, and more weapons.
The Forge Weapons Tier List
What Are Weapon Tiers?
Tiers group weapons by strength. S-Tier means the strongest, perfect for tough bosses like Ice Golem. D-Tier means the weakest, best for beginners. Strength depends on damage (hit power), speed (attack quickness), range (reach distance), and DPS (total power over time). Higher ores like Dragonite make better weapons. Spears rose in Winter Update for range.
S-Tier Weapons: The Strongest Choices
These weapons have the highest DPS, over 20, and long reach up to 12 studs. They help defeat big bosses safely from afar. Players need rare ores to craft them, but they last through the whole game. Added: Comically Large Spoon, Crusader Sword from recent lists.
| Weapon | DPS | Notes |
| Knight Spear | 26.64 | Longest reach for safe hits |
| Excalibur | 23.21 | Biggest single damage |
| Dragon Slayer | 19.64 | Clears groups with wide swings |
| Terrorblade | 21.57 | Fast heavy attacks |
| Chaos Straight Sword | 21+ | Steady power at medium distance |
| Angelic Spear | 23+ | Balances speed and safety (Winter) |
| Comically Large Spoon | 22+ | Unique high DPS colossal |
| Crusader Sword | 21+ | Strong S-tier straight sword |
A-Tier Weapons: Very Good Options
A-Tier weapons score DPS from 16 to 22. They work well during middle game stages, like exploring new islands. They use fewer rare ores than S-Tier but still fight strong enemies. Added: Savage Claws (Island 2), Candy Cane (festive).
| Weapon | DPS | Notes |
| Wyvern Axe | 20.60 | Strong for steady progress |
| Skull Crusher | 20+ | Stuns enemies to stop them |
| Cutlass | 18+ | Quick hits in close fights |
| Executioner | 18.57 | Powerful wide swings |
| Grave Maker | 16.95 | Slows foes with heavy blows |
| Tachi | 18+ | Sharp cuts for player battles |
| Savage Claws | 18+ | Fast gauntlets for Island 2 |
B-Tier Weapons: Reliable for Practice
B-Tier offers DPS around 15 to 18. These suit farming ores on early islands. They help build skills before stronger foes appear. Added: Double Battle Axe, confirmed consistent.
| Weapon | DPS | Notes |
| Scythe | 15+ | Sweeps many enemies at once |
| Uchigatana | 15.58 | Series of fast slices |
| Double Battle Axe | 15.5 | Handles crowds well |
| Hammer | 15+ | Knocks back groups |
| Boxing Gloves | 16+ | Rapid punches up close |
C-Tier Weapons: Starting Tools
C-Tier has DPS from 13 to 15. Use these first to learn mining and basic fights. Upgrade soon as stronger enemies appear. Added: Ironhand variant noted as weaker.
| Weapon | DPS | Notes |
| Relevator | 13.91 | Moves fast for short fights |
| Falchion | 12.71 | Simple starter sword |
| Gladius | 14+ | Good reach for new players |
| Spiked Mace | 13+ | Adds small stuns |
D-Tier Weapons: Beginner Basics
D-Tier DPS stays under 13. These come from common ores and teach controls. Replace them quickly for better survival. Added: Hook (rare dagger), Falchion Knife confirmed.
| Weapon | DPS | Notes |
| Dagger | 13- | Short pokes only |
| Rapier | 12+ | Light thrust attacks |
| Falchion Knife | 11 | Easy to make first |
| Iron Hand | 11+ | Basic hand strikes |
| Hook | 10+ | Rare low-range dagger |
Tips for Crafting and Using Weapons
Mine colored ores to match recipes at the anvil (e.g., Straight Swords: 6 ores base). Mini-games set quality. Aim for perfect. Add runes for extras like speed. Check game wiki for exact recipes, as updates change them (e.g., Spear from Winter). Practice on dummies to pick your favorite. Golem race boosts colossals.
