⚔️ WHERE WINDS MEET ACCURATE WEAPON TIER LIST (November 2025 Patch) just hit the Jianghu… and sword mains are finally winning while twinblades get exposed.
The one starter weapon that secretly carries every raid clear on global servers right now. The fan + umbrella combo that’s healing entire sects through boss oneshots. And the rope dart setup that’s pulling Nascent Soul players out of position for free kills…
Chinese leaderboard data doesn’t lie – half the “meta” from beta just flipped. Full S–D tier breakdown for PvE, PvP, Raids, Solo & Exploration (real weapons only, no fake gauntlets or flutes): [Link to article] Save this before NetEase drops the balance patch.

Global servers passed 2.8 million concurrent warriors, sect wars rage non-stop, and raid groups demand perfect loadouts. One fact stands out from China server parses, global duel ladders, and speedrun logs: weapon choice separates immortals from corpses.
Players equip two martial arts weapons and swap mid-combat (bow stays separate). This tier list ranks every launch weapon type based on current November 2025 performance across all modes – no filler, no made-up gauntlets or flutes.
S+ Tier – Broken on Launch, Nerf Confirmed Incoming
Panacea Fan
PvE/Solo: S+ (ranged healing + damage, solo everything safely)
Raid: S+ (group heal circles + wind walls save wipes)
PvP: S (kite + heal through burst forever)
Exploration: S+ (safest farming) Current fastest solo clear record holder.
Vernal Umbrella
PvP: S+ (auto-block + reflect + poison rain = untouchable)
