⚔️ 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)
Raid: S+ (team shields + infinite glide for mechanics)
PvE: S (forgiving defense while learning bosses)
Stormbreaker Spear
PvE/Raid: S+ (best crowd control + lightning chains)
PvP: S (longest reach + knockdown setups)
Exploration: S (safe poking from distance)
S Tier – Leaderboard Staples, Zero Weaknesses
Nameless Sword / Strategic Sword
PvP: S (perfect parry windows + counter chains)
PvE/Raid: S (reliable DPS + bleed stacks) Starter weapon that stays meta forever.
Infernal Twinblades
PvP: S (fastest combo burst, bleed melts tanks)
PvE/Raid: S (highest single-target when airborne) High skill ceiling, insane reward.
Rope Dart
PvP: S+ (pull enemies out of position, zero escape)
PvE: S (airborne juggles + execute thresholds)
A+ Tier – Strong Meta Picks, Just Need Good Pairings
Thundercry Blade (shields + invulnerability frames)
Inkwell Fan (aerial control + ranged burst)
Mo Blade / Greatsword (tank + taunt utility)
A Tier – Reliable Role Fillers
Dual Blades (high mobility DPS)
Standard Spear variants
Bow (only real ranged option, solid backbar)
B Tier – Situational or High-Skill
Basic Umbrella variants
Early Fan styles
Heavy Saber paths
C Tier – Meme Tier, Avoid for Progression
Unupgraded starters past level 40
Pure defensive off-meta picks
Current God Combos Crushing Everything
- Panacea Fan + Vernal Umbrella → unkillable healer that still tops DPS
- Infernal Twinblades + Rope Dart → PvP deletion machine
- Stormbreaker Spear + Nameless Sword → best progression + crowd control
- Strategic Sword + Thundercry Blade → tanky counter-play god
Hard Data From Servers (November 2025)
Top 100 PvP: 72% running Panacea Fan or Rope Dart setups
Top 50 Raid Healers/DPS: 81% Panacea Fan or Umbrella
Solo Speedruns: 95% Panacea Fan primary
Sword users in overall top 100: 48% (all Nameless/Strategic variants)
NetEase confirmed balance updates for late November. Panacea Fan healing circles, Umbrella reflect, and Twinblades bleed stacks all targeted for nerfs.
Meta shifts fast in the Jianghu. Run S+ weapons now while they’re still legal… or watch everyone else fly past while stuck swinging basic iron.
Your next sect war starts with the right loadout. Choose wrong and become someone else’s highlight reel.
