Rivals: Armas - Tier List & Versus
(2024)
Published
Rivals: Armas - Official Tier
Editorial placements for Rivals: Armas, with the reasoning behind each list.
Best Weapons Ranked
Every weapon in Rivals on one board. The Shotgun, Sniper, RPG and Minigun decide the fights players remember, while the Uzi, Assault Rifle, Katana and Crossbow hold the middle of almost every loadout. The Prime, Contraband and RNG exclusives sit where their price and role put them, and the cheap Standard picks still earn a place as reliable second options.

Primary Weapons Ranked
Every primary in Rivals ranked: the Shotgun that owns tight corners, the Sniper that ends long lanes, and the RPG that breaks any holdout lead the top row. The Minigun, Assault Rifle and Crossbow follow as the most flexible guns in the slot, while the Prime and Contraband primaries trade a higher price for their own specialty.

Secondary Weapons Ranked
Sidearm ranking for Rivals: the Uzi and Revolver are the two secondaries players build around, the Handgun and Spray stay cheap and honest, and the Shorty punishes anyone who lets a fight get close. The Prime sidearms (Energy Pistols, Slingshot, Exogun) trade price for extra pressure, while the one-shot Glass Cannon and the portal-based Warper close the board.

Utility Weapons Ranked
