Father Father West is what happens when robot cowboys decide that subtlety is overrated and solve every problem with bigger guns and louder explosions. Between spell-slinging and barely survivable waves of enemies, your weapon choices go from fun to absolutely necessary for survival.
Some weapons feel like cheating, others require a little more finesse, and some are just here for the vibes. The trick is to know which is which before you are knee deep in enemies and out of options. This tier list breaks down all the weapons in the game and ranks them by how well they perform, so you can spend less time guessing and more time causing trouble on purpose.
This game is in Early Access at the time of writing, so the information below may change over time.
Complete list of weapon tiers
Here are the best weapons in the Far Far West, ranked by overall effectiveness.
How our levels work
Here's a quick breakdown of how each tier is ranked so you can better understand which weapons are worth prioritizing.
- S level: The best weapons in the game. These dominate most encounters with minimal downside and are incredibly effective in both solo and co-op play.
- A level: Strong, reliable picks that work well in most situations but may require some positioning, skill or synergy to reach their full potential.
- B level: Solid, middle-of-the-road weapons. These are reliable but tend to be outclassed by higher level options or require specific builds to shine.
- C level: Niche or early game weapons that struggle to keep up in tougher encounters. They can still be useful, but are generally outclassed by other choices.
