Throne and Liberty Class Tier Lists for all Weapons: Crossbow, Dagger, Greatsword, Longbow, Staff, Sword and Wand.

Ordering within each tier is based on the weapon combinations played at the highest level in end-game content beyond the maximum level. It's crucial to note that these positions may change suddenly with balance patches. Therefore, it's essential, above all, to choose what you enjoy playing.

The information provided is accurate as of March 2024 and should remain relevant until the next major update that delivers major changes.

Crossbow

Crossbow Dagger - This weapon combination has incredible burst potential and the highest single target DPS in the game in short bursts, letting you move between mobs in the open world with ease and deliver sustained DPS during dungeon encounters.
Crossbow Greatsword - While the two weapons individually offer high damage, the combination doesn't do as well as others, if used as an off-hand, the crossbow can still deliver high damage alongside the Greatsword but it cannot be compared to the burst potential offered by other weapons.
Crossbow Longbow - This weapon combination offers high damage potential and the increased range of Longbow comes in handy but because of the range difference between the two weapons, it can be annoying to keep repositioning for your crossbow skills to reach your target.
Crossbow Staff - This weapon combination offers high burst damage and the Inner Peace of the staff can help with the mana hungry Crossbow. The staff also offers much needed AOE damage. However, akin to the Crossbow Greatsword combination, while both weapons have high damage potential on their own, they don't do much to compliment eachother and the range difference between staff and crossbow can also prove difficult to manage.
Crossbow Sword - While this combination offers the crossbow much needed protection, it falls short in both delivering damage and staying alive long enough to be considered for the tank role.
Crossbow Wand - This combination counters itself as the Wand relies on damage over time while the crossbow relies on quick bursts of damage. It can be difficult to keep on top of the cooldowns which cuts deeply into your DPS.

Dagger

Dagger Crossbow - While the two weapons individually offer high damage, the combination doesn't do as well as others, if used as an off-hand, the crossbow can still deliver high damage alongside the Greatsword but it cannot be compared to the burst potential offered by other weapons.
Dagger Greatsword - This is one of the best weapon combinations if you are looking for high damage in short bursts. The mobility is incredible on this and it allows you to topscore in PVE events if played correctly.
Dagger Longbow - The dagger adds much needed mobility to the Longbow and the combo performs amazingly together as the dagger damage skills fill the gaps you find in the Longbow rotation and allows for quick repositioning.
Dagger Staff - Another amazing combination for the dagger as the staff offers high sustained damage and the dagger compliments it through the access to Inject Venom and skills meant to finish off targets ( Brutal Incision ).
Dagger Sword - Sadly the combination of Dagger and Sword falls short of achieving anything substantial in PVE as both weapons have rather low DPS potential on their own and the dagger doesn't do enough to help with the tank oriented side of the Sword.
Dagger Wand - This combination does great in open world PVE as it allows for high AOE damage and is fantastic when the goal is to kill a large amount of low HP mobs in a short time or when grinding lithographs!

Greatsword

Greatsword Crossbow - While the two weapons individually offer high damage, the combination doesn't do as well as others, if used as an off-hand, the crossbow can still deliver high damage alongside the Greatsword but it cannot be compared to the burst potential offered by other weapons.
Greatsword Dagger - This is one of the best weapon combinations if you are looking for high damage in short bursts. The mobility is incredible on this and it allows you to topscore in PVE events if played correctly.
Greatsword Longbow - This combination doesn't manage to achieve a whole lot in PVE even though both weapons have high damage potential, they are awful at complimenting eachother and you'd be forced to play in close range with the greatsword which would expose you during skills like Decisive Sniping.
Greatsword Staff - This combination has similar issues as Greatsword Longbow and while Inner Peace can help with keeping up with the high mana consumption, the combination lacks in sustained damage.
Greatsword Sword - This is one of the best weapon combinations if you are trying to play the tank role for your group in dungeons as it provides high resistances and health. In the same time, it can be used successfully in the open world PVE grinding, offering plenty of options for AOE damage.
Greatsword Wand - Sadly the greatsword fails to provide anything of value to a healing type weapon like the wand. Meanwhile, if you intend to play the damage side of the wand, you will find yourself struggling in applying damage.

Longbow

Longbow Crossbow - This weapon combination offers high damage potential and the increased range of Longbow comes in handy but because of the range difference between the two weapons, it can be annoying to keep repositioning for your crossbow skills to reach your target.
Longbow Dagger - The dagger adds much needed mobility to the Longbow and the combo performs amazingly together as the dagger damage skills fill the gaps you find in the Longbow rotation and allows for quick repositioning.
Longbow Greatsword - This combination doesn't manage to achieve a whole lot in PVE even though both weapons have high damage potential, they are awful at complimenting eachother and you'd be forced to play in close range with the greatsword which would expose you during skills like Decisive Sniping.
Longbow Staff - Longbow Staff remains one of the highest DPS combos in the game as it matches perfectly in both range and abilities. The use of Inner Peace coupled with Nature's Blessing provides almost unlimited mana which allows you to unleash incredible amounts of damage.
Longbow Sword - While the sword succeeds in offering the Longbow much needed defense, it's lack of damage lowers overall DPS considerably and renders this combination weak when put up against others.
Longbow Wand - This combination remains the uncontested king of healing builds as it provides incredible support for all your teammates and incredible healing along with mana regeneration abilities such as Nature's Blessing.

Staff

Staff Crossbow - This weapon combination offers high burst damage and the Inner Peace of the staff can help with the mana hungry Crossbow. The staff also offers much needed AOE damage. However, akin to the Crossbow Greatsword combination, while both weapons have high damage potential on their own, they don't do much to compliment eachother and the range difference between staff and crossbow can also prove difficult to manage.
Staff Dagger - Another amazing combination for the dagger as the staff offers high sustained damage and the dagger compliments it through the access to Inject Venom and skills meant to finish off targets ( Brutal Incision ).
Staff Greatsword - This combination has similar issues as Greatsword Longbow and while Inner Peace can help with keeping up with the high mana consumption, the combination lacks in sustained damage.
Staff Longbow - Longbow Staff remains one of the highest DPS combos in the game as it matches perfectly in both range and abilities. The use of Inner Peace coupled with Nature's Blessing provides almost unlimited mana which allows you to unleash incredible amounts of damage.
Staff Sword - The defensive ability of the sword remains useful even when coupled with a staff, however, the lack of damage doesn't do enough to make the combination competitive from a DPS point of view when compared to other possible combinations.
Staff Wand - The combination between the damage over time capabilities of the wand coupled with the high burst damage the staff is capable of creates a great mix for high, constant damage output. This combination is also great for AOE grinding as Infernal Meteor can be coupled with many of the wand AOE abilities.

Sword

Sword Crossbow - While this combination offers the crossbow much needed protection, it falls short in both delivering damage and staying alive long enough to be considered for the tank role.
Sword Dagger - Sadly the combination of Dagger and Sword falls short of achieving anything substantial in PVE as both weapons have rather low DPS potential on their own and the dagger doesn't do enough to help with the tank oriented side of the Sword.
Sword Greatsword - This is one of the best weapon combinations if you are trying to play the tank role for your group in dungeons as it provides high resistances and health. In the same time, it can be used successfully in the open world PVE grinding, offering plenty of options for AOE damage.

Sword Staff - The defensive ability of the sword remains useful even when coupled with a staff, however, the lack of damage doesn't do enough to make the combination competitive from a DPS point of view when compared to other possible combinations.
Sword Wand - The combination between the defensive capabilities of the sword and the healing of the wand create one of the best tanking classes in the game. It creates a tank that can heal itself, often referred to as a "Paladin" build in other games and it can prove very useful in certain dungeons where the healing required is minimal.

Wand

Wand Crossbow - This combination counters itself as the Wand relies on damage over time while the crossbow relies on quick bursts of damage. It can be difficult to keep on top of the cooldowns which cuts deeply into your DPS.
Wand Dagger - This combination does great in open world PVE as it allows for high AOE damage and is fantastic when the goal is to kill a large amount of low HP mobs in a short time or when grinding lithographs!
