Survivor.io can offer you a fun and exciting gaming experience. In the beginning, you may find it relatively easy with just basic weapons to choose from. However, as you progress through the game, you will be facing tougher enemies.
That’s why it is necessary to choose the best armor and equip yourself with the best weapons available in Survivor.io. With the right items, you can smash enemy hoards easily and complete chapters much faster. So let’s get started!
Survivor.io Best and Worst Weapons Ranked
For the sake of simplicity, we will address the weapons’ grade skills by their colors in our tier list: Good (green), Better (blue), Excellent (purple), Epic (yellow), and Legendary (red). The Normal (gray) grade is not included because it does not offer any bonuses.
Void Power
- Tier: S
- Green: Attack is increased by 15%
- Blue: All projectile range is increased by 15%
- Purple: Released black holes explode before fading
- Yellow: Attack is increased by 25%
- Red: Energy veil explodes when shattered
Void Power is hands down the best weapon in Survivor.io because of its range, amazing attack boosts, and effectiveness in boss fights. Its black holes allow you to do some serious damage against the enemies as they get sucked in.
For a more effective attack, you should fire the black holes in opposite directions so you can be protected from all sides. Stepping into these holes can also be a great strategy to keep enemies away from you.
Another great thing about this weapon is that during boss fights, the black holes will follow the boss, which will make it more difficult for them to evade your attacks. All these features make Void Power the most efficient weapon to use this year in Survivor.io.
Lightchaser
- Tier: S
- Green: Attack gets increased by 15%
- Blue: All attack intervals are decreased by 15%
- Purple: Triggers a backward slash every 5 attacks
- Yellow: Attack is increased by 25%
- Red: Leaves behind a sword array every 10 attacks
Lightchaser is also a fantastic weapon, almost as powerful as Void Power. Its fast attacking speed, backed up by its backward slash ability and sword arrays, make it a formidable weapon in any situation.
Once upgraded to 5 stars or EVO tier, this weapon can deal massive damage with its purple and pink combination of slashes. This makes it a great weapon to have when dealing with large groups of enemies, although not as effective in boss fights as the Void Power.
Katana
- Tier: A
- Green: Attack is increased by 10%
- Blue: Adds one more blade wave
- Purple: Blade waves also release ki blasts
- Yellow: Attack is increased by 15%
- Red: Regenerates 3% HP for each defeated monster
The Katana weapon is quite fun to play with, and it does some good damage with its wave effect and ki blasts. But its most impressive ability is that it can offer a small HP recovery bonus once you defeat a monster. That’s definitely a plus if you’re low on health and fight against difficult mobs.
Kunai
- Tier: A
- Green: Increases the attack by 10%
- Blue: Damage increased by 30%
- Purple: Begins with level 2 Kunai
- Yellow: Attack gets increased by 15%
- Red: Kunai will split after hitting an enemy
The Kunai weapon, which is the default weapon in Survivor.io, can deal a decent amount of damage to enemies around you. By default, it shoots one kunai but you get more as you upgrade the weapon. Once upgraded to EVO grade, this weapon is almost as effective against bosses as the Void Power.
It will shoot numerous shurikens toward the closes enemy, which can offer you a huge advantage while dealing with more static bosses – you can basically run around the boss and the weapon will do its thing.
Additionally, once upgraded to its legendary grade, each Kunai will split into two after hitting an enemy, so you can actually damage multiple enemies at once.
Shotgun
- Tier: B
- Green: Attack gets increased by 10%
- Blue: Deals double damage to enemies in front of you
- Purple: The shotgun’s range is increased
- Yellow: Attack is increased by 15%
- Red: Pierces all enemies
The Shotgun weapon was one of the weapons I was most excited to get in Survivor.io, especially after hearing all the buzz about the Gatling, its EVO star level. Although this weapon does some decent damage, it’s quite slow to use, meaning that it takes a good amount of time before you get to fire again, which is a major disadvantage when enemies are rushing toward you.
However, the upside to it is that it uses high-power bullets which guarantee extra damage within the game. When upgrading the Shotgun to its next star level, you get an additional three bullets with increased attack damage. This means that once is fully upgraded, you can shoot 15 bullets all at once.
Finally, when evolving the Shotgun into a Gatling, it gets transformed into a fast-shooting weapon, which looks like a machine gun. Unfortunately, this is not as effective as I thought it would be. Instead of a spread, it becomes a single line, which might be useful on some bosses, but definitely not when facing enemy hoards.
Baseball Bat
- Tier: C
- Green: Attack increased by 10%
- Blue: Attacks inflict Bleed (slow damage)
- Purple: The knockback distance is doubled
- Yellow: Attack is increased by 15%
- Red: The swing range becomes circular
Baseball Bat might not have the highest attack power, but it can be quite useful in certain situations like tough mobs or hard-to-hit bosses due to its Bleed effect. Once enemies are hit by this effect, they will suffer damage for a short period of time.
It’s also good for crowd control as its attack range becomes circular, which means more enemies can be hit by the attack. Is still not as effective as the other weapons mentioned above, but can still be a good weapon in the early stages of the game.
Revolver
- Tier: D
- Green: Attack is increased by 10%
- Blue: Reload time is decreased by 2s
- Purple: Restores 1 bullet for each defeated monster
- Yellow: Attack is increased by 15%
- Red: Causes a minor explosion when an enemy is hit
The least powerful weapon in Survivor.io is the Revolver. Although this weapon can deal a great amount of damage, and you can get more bullets as you upgrade it, the area of effect is quite narrow. This makes it very difficult to hit a group of enemies in one shot.
Even after evolving this weapon, which basically gives you a second revolver, is still not effective when dealing with enemy hoards. I would not recommend upgrading this weapon as there are much better options available.
Conclusion
Overall, Survivor.io has a great selection of weapons that you can choose from. By using this tier list, you can make the best decisions when it comes to building your character. Pick the Void Power if you need the best weapon in Survivor.io.
