Farlight 84 Weapon Tier List (Season Meta): Best Guns for Solo & Squad
BEST GUNS The recoil patch changed which weapons are reliable at range. Weapons that relied on raw fire rate lost consistency, while controllable options gained value. Treat the list below as a starting point and adjust it to your own aim and playstyle.
| Tier | Weapons | Why |
|---|---|---|
| S | Burst assault rifles | Predictable recoil and strong at mid to long range |
| A | Tactical SMGs | Excellent close-range DPS, easy to control while moving |
| B | Shotguns, marksman rifles | Powerful but demanding; they need good positioning or aim |
Solo play
Solo players should favour consistent mid-range weapons. You cannot rely on a teammate to finish a fight, so a rifle you can hit with reliably beats a high-risk pick that only shines when everything goes right.
Squad play
Squads can afford specialised picks. A shotgun player can push alongside a marksman providing cover, and the jetpack lets you reposition quickly to flank. Coordinate loadouts so the team covers close, mid and long range.
Tips for climbing
- Practise recoil control in a few short sessions instead of one long one.
- Use the jetpack to break line of sight rather than only to attack.
- Re-check the meta after every balance patch, since small changes shift the tiers.
