Vampire Survivors: Best Weapons Tier List – From Gatti Amari to Garlic

S-Tier: Absolutely Broken

These weapons alone can carry you to 30 minutes. Prioritize them every run.

Gatti Amari

The undisputed king of weapons. Its cats scale infinitely, deal massive area damage, and even heal you. Evolve it with Stone Mask for Vicious Hunger – cats heal and drop gold. Pair with Duplicator for double the carnage.

La Borra

Evolved from Santa Water with Attractorb. Creates slowing pools that deal rapid damage. Combined with Magnet, it clears entire screens. Best against swarms and bosses.

Infinite Corridor

Requires Clock Lancet + Silver Ring + Gold Ring. Halves enemy health every 0.5 seconds, killing even the toughest foes instantly. Pairs with Crimson Shroud for invincibility.

A-Tier: Excellent Choices

These weapons are powerful and versatile, often forming the core of strong builds.

Bible (King Bible)

Evolves to Unholy Vespers with Spellbinder. Provides a rotating barrier that blocks projectiles and damages enemies. Essential for survival against ranged attackers.

Runetracer

Bounces between enemies, hitting multiple times. Synergizes with Candelabrador for increased area and Duplicator for extra bounces. Great for clearing linear paths.

Thunder Loop

Evolved from Lightning Ring with Duplicator. Strikes all enemies on screen every few seconds. High burst damage, but requires timing. Best with cooldown reduction.

Heaven Sword

Evolved from Cross with Clover. Fires homing swords that hit multiple times. Reliable damage and good at dealing with spread-out enemies.

B-Tier: Solid Picks

These weapons are viable but outclassed by higher tiers in most situations.

Garlic

Evolves to Soul Eater with Pummarola. Provides a small AoE that kills weak enemies and heals. Strong early game but falls off later. Incredible for farming gold.

Magic Wand

Evolves to Holy Wand with Empty Tome. Fires homing projectiles rapidly. Good for single-target damage but lacks AoE. Use as filler if nothing better.

Axe

Evolves to Death Spiral with Candelabrador. Large vertical arcs that hit multiple enemies. Decent damage but slow. Pairs well with projectile speed.

C-Tier: Situational

These weapons have niche uses but often underperform compared to others.

Fire Wand

Evolves to Hellfire with Spinach. Fires a piercing fireball. Good for grouping enemies but low damage. Requires many upgrades to be effective.

Five Point Star

Evolved from Knife with Bracer. Fires five piercing projectiles in a star pattern. However, the spread is uneven, missing many enemies. Outclassed by Runetracer.

Peachone

Fires a single large projectile. Evolves with Ebony Wings to Vandalier (S-tier), but alone it's weak. Only pick if you plan to evolve both birds.

D-Tier: Avoid Unless Necessary

These weapons are underpowered and often a waste of slots.

Shadow Pinion

Fires a projectile that returns, but it's slow and clunky. Evolve to Valkyrie Turner, which is still mediocre. Not worth the slot.

Cat O' Nine Tails

Fires multiple whips in random directions. Low damage and unreliable. Even evolved to Mace Tower, it's outclassed by other AoE options.

F-Tier: Never Pick

These weapons are detrimental or completely useless in most builds.

Attractorb (Weapon)

Wait – Attractorb is an accessory, not a weapon. But if you accidentally pick it as a weapon via a glitch, it does nothing. Avoid.

Stone Mask (Weapon)

Similar to Attractorb, it's an accessory that provides curse. As a weapon, it offers no damage. Only useful for evolving Gatti Amari.

Remember: your weapon pool is limited. Prioritize S and A tiers, and always evolve weapons for maximum power. Good luck, and may the cats be ever in your favor!
