Warframe Weapon Tier List

A Warframe weapon tier list. ALL weapon tier list.

Despite its age, Warframe remains strong, not bending to temporary trends or hardships. This success is partially thanks to the unwavering loyalty of its loyal fan base but primarily due to the developers at Digital Extremes pouring their hearts and souls into the game. The developers were releasing content relentlessly over the years to keep it fresh. As a result, today's Warframe indeed has amassed many weapons for Tenno to choose from. Here is the tier list of all weapons in Warframe.

Tier list of All Warframe Weapons

The elaborate tier list below will include all three Warframe weapons categories: Primary, Secondary, and Melee. Naturally, due to the live service nature of the game, the tier list will be prone to changes, with new weapons being added constantly by devs and others being buffed or nerfed. We will update the list when we note any game changes in this aspect.

Kuva Zarr

Kuva Zarr is the Kuva version of the original Zarr hand cannon that excels in dealing Blast damage. It has two modes, Cannon and Barrage. The Cannon mode fires cluster bombs that separate into three smaller explosives upon impact. The Barrage mode turns the weapon into a huge shotgun, firing a volley of flack, dealing Puncture damage.

Kuva Bramma

Kuva Bramma is a large bow firing explosive-tipped arrows that can be detonated in mid-flight by pressing the Alternate fire button. Dealing primarily Blast damage, it's the highest-damaging bow in Warframe.

Kuva Chakkhurr

Kuva Chakkhurr is a Kuva weapon variant of the Grineer flintlock-style rifle Chakkhurr. It has a limited rate of fire and ammunition, but its shots deal an incredible amount of Impact damage. If the player scores a headshot, they will receive a massive 50% damage bonus. It's highly regarded as a skill-based weapon among Tenno.

Kuva Tonkor

Kuva Tonkor is a Kuva variant of the famous Tonkor grenade launcher. Dealing Blast damage primarily, it has the minimum projectile activation distance removed, and the direct hits can knock enemies down. The explosion penetrates through walls in full radius, and players do not need line of sight to deal damage.

Vaykor Hek

Vaykor Hek is an upgraded variant of Hek obtained from the Steel Meridian Syndicate. Dealing mainly Puncture damage, it has an innate Justice effect that deals 1,000 Blast damage to enemies, reducing their accuracy when triggered.
