Finding the best weapons in The First Descendant becomes more of a priority as you get further into the game, with level becoming less important and giving way to questions of build and specific buffs. With dozens of weapons and guns to be found, and thousands of variations on each one depending on what buffs and modifiers they roll, it's hard to judge each of these guns in a vacuum. Ultimately what's more important in The First Descendant isn't just your guns, that's one piece of a far larger build that all interconnects and plays off each other.
Still, the weapon is arguably the most important bit - it is your main source of damage, putting aside the individual skills of Descendants - and most builds generally lean towards using a specific weapon. With that in mind, we've assembled all the best weapons in The First Descendant at time of writing that players should absolutely consider making the primary focus of those builds, and where you can get them. The 5 best weapons in The First Descendant Below we've listed the top five best weapons in The First Descendant - all of which but one, it turns out, are Ultimate Weapons that will have to be researched, not ones that can be found in the world.
It's worth clarifying that as most of these weapons are Ultimates, obtaining them without spending large amounts of The First Descendant Caliber currency is going to take time, and the playing of odds. Obtaining an Ultimate weapon in-game requires finding rare drops from opening Amorph.
