Solo Hunters Tier List – Class/Weapon/Power/Gear [WEREWOLF]


Updated on February 3, 2026: Added Werewolf Power and reranked class, weapon and power tier lists (You can now get Class Rerolls via Super Red Gates)

Making the best build in Solo Hunters is all about picking out the best class, weapon, powers, armor set and rings. Below I’ll go into each category separately and rank them all with individual ranking explanations, drop locations and stats. Here’s my complete Solo Hunters tier list.

Solo Hunters Class Tier List

Classes in Solo Hunters are just bonuses to stats and you can currently only get them via Class Rerolls which you can get from Super Red Gates, buy for Robux or get from codes (all codes linked at the end of the article). The best class is Tank for a Strength/Weapons build and Mage for a Magic/Power/Rune build. Below I’ll explain all class stat bonuses and each class individually.

You can get your class in the Stats menu in the top right.

S-Tier Classes

S-Tier Ranking Explanation Class Stats

Tank Class
Legendary
• The best class for a Weapon build and overall the best class in the game
• This is because weapons give you more reliable DPS and less reliance on cooldowns
• Also the highest HP bonus
• Check out the best Weapons to use below in their tier list
+40% Health
+20% M1 Damage

Mage Class
Legendary
• The best class for a Power/Rune build
• Tank/Weapon builds are more reliable since for Power/Rune builds you have to farm mastery for moves to be effective whereas Weapons always have M1s
• Still Mage can be quite decent with all moves and mastery farmed but it’s more for late game where AOE is more important
• Check out the best Powers/Runes to use below in their tier list
+40% Magic Damage

A-Tier Classes

A-Tier Ranking Explanation Notes

Assassin
Mythic
• Overall, going for a hybrid build is slightly weaker in terms of raw DPS than going for a single stat build
• But you get the flexibility of having both single target DPS with weapons and AOE DPS with Powers/Runes
• If you’re going for a hybrid Strength/Magic stat build then Assassin is your best option
• Even if you just want weapon damage and you didn’t get Tank keep Assassin since it’s the second highest bonus
+20% M1 Damage
+20% Magic Damage
+20% Health

Knight
Rare
• Just a weaker version of Assassin
• Still a better option to go for Knight and a weapon build than Elf or Summoner for a Mage build
• Only good for beginner weapon builds if you cannot get Knight or Assassin
+10% M1 Damage
+10% Health
+10% Magic Damage

B-Tier Classes

B-Tier Ranking Explanation Notes

Elf
Epic
• Both Elf and Summoner are for Magic/Power/Rune builds
• Elf just gives 5% more damage but doesn’t get HP
• So it’s only a matter if you value that 5% more DPS over HP but overall Summoner is slightly better solo due to the HP boost
• That said Magic builds are generally weaker than weapon builds so if you want to go for Magic you should only go for it with Mage
+25% Magic Damage

Summoner
Epic
• See Elf +20% Health
+20% Magic Damage

Solo Hunters Weapon Tier List

The best weapons in Solo Hunters are the Thunder Axe for farming and Shadow Scythe and Dual Dagger for end-game. I prefer the Thunder Axe since the R skill Stormcall Throw is god-tier for AOE farming at all stages of the game. That said the other two outdamage it eventually. Below I’ll dive into each weapon individually and their drop locations.

Combine with maxing Strength, Serpent/Venomspike set and the Tank class for the best DPS.

S-Tier Weapons

S-Tier Notes

Shadow Scythe
Only available at the Summon Power NPC

• Arguably the best late-game weapon in the game
• This is because of the long-range skills and mobility in the skill tree allowing you to kite end-game raids
• Cannot be grinded in dungeons since you can only get it through luck at the Summon Power station
• Deals the best damage and has two iFrame skills to clear end game gates while staying safe


Dual Dagger
Drops in Spider Cave or get from Summon Power NPC

• High S along with Scythe for end-game boss-killing
• A really flexible and fast weapon with some of the best skills in the game
• You can even pull mobs to set up for AOE damage with Powers or for your teammates
• Immortals is also a great defensive skill


Thunder Axe
Drops in Jungle

• The best weapon for farming even though it falls behind the Shadow Scythe and Daggers in the late-game
• The R is one of the best skills in the game and amazing for grinding and gives you both a ranged and an AOE option
• That said R falls off later when it can no longer one shot mobs so the Axe loses its effectiveness and falls behind Scythe and Daggers

A-Tier Weapons

A-Tier Notes

Venom Fang
Drops in Subway

• Easy to grind while having great skills and the skill tree is the same as your starting weapon
• C deals massive damage but it’s short range
• Overall the damage here is great but with quite low range which is why it’s A-Tier


Carmsei Katana
Drops in Desert

• I’ve been playing more with Carmsei and it’s much better than I originally thought
• That said it’s the opposite of Venom Fang having high range but lower PDS
• On par with Venom Fang and Thunder Axe in terms of raw DPS
• That said the Thunder Axe has better moves for farming

B-Tier Weapons

B-Tier Notes

King’s Trident
King’s Trident drops in Snow Forest

• Great range and fast cooldowns but a bit awkward to use
• That said for beginners the F skill deals a lot of damage despite its small hitbox

C-Tier Weapons

C-Tier Ranking Explanation

Link Sword
Drops in Cave

• Weakest weapon in the tier list but stronger than Demon King Daggers and Diamond Dagger

Solo Hunters Power Tier List

Overall Powers/Runes are weaker than weapons. Still, some have good damage like Werewolf or make up for DPS in long range for group raids (They’re not good solo though). The best powers in Solo Hunters are Werewolf, Divine Blade and Goliath for late-game but you have to farm their mastery. Whatever power you pick, always go for the boss-killer skill first so you can farm mastery for it. Go for skills like Sword of Destiny for DB, Blackhole Crash for Goliath, Ghoulstorm Mine for Dark, etc. Let’s analyze all Powers/Runes individually and see which ones are the best.

Tip #1: I recommend farming Jungle boss for mastery.

Tip #2: Max Magic Power stat, get Mage class and Astral Set for the best Power/Rune DPS.

S-Tier Powers

S-Tier Ranking Explanation

Werewolf
• The best AOE and DPS in the game with Rage up and transformation
• You have plenty of iFrame skills to dodge damage
• You even have M1s when transformed for stable DPS, canceling the usual weakness for Powers
• Overall the best Power in the game beating out Divine Blade due to M1 damage

Divine Blade
Mythic
• The best Power/Rune in terms of quick burst damage
• Sword of Destiny is a DPS nuke dealing massive damage on bosses
• The range is a bit short but the damage is god-tier
• You even get invincibility frames on all skills so you can dodge damage while DPS-ing

Goliath
Legendary
• Also short ranged like Divine Blade and less AOE but still does really impressive damage
• The best boss killer in the game after DB and WW
• You also have 2 iFrame skills to dodge boss telegraphs
• Also buffs M1s on weapons with one skill so it’s a good support for a weapon build
• Overall tied for the second best Power in the game with DB

Light
Legendary
• Less DPS than the three above but it’s long-ranged and does excellent AOE damage
• That said it doesn’t have iFrame moves not good single-target damage so it’s great for farming
• Plus it’s really fast which some Powers lack

A-Tier Powers

A-Tier Ranking Explanation

Darkness
Epic
• Really strong for an Epic despite not having iFrames
• Ghoulstorm Mine is a boss killer for farming
• Plus, unlike BE and Goliath you have huge range and AOE so it’s much safer in teams

Crimson
Legendary
• Great beginner Power
• Good damage even though it has low range and AOE
• Great for early farming and has an iFrame skill

B-Tier Powers

B-Tier Ranking Explanation

Nature
Epic
• One of the best beginner Powers for farming bosses and mastery
• Great damage, range and AOE for its rarity
• The first skill does the best damage with R being a close second for boss-killing
• That said it’s outdamaged by higher tiers

C-Tier Powers

C-Tier Ranking Explanation

Lightning
Rare
• Wide AOE attacks but abysmally low DPS
• I wouldn’t use this
• No iFrames so you can get damaged during channeling moves

Vines
Rare
• A weaker version of Lightning

Solo Hunters Armor Set Tier List

2 Piece Bonus: Gain 18% extra HP
3 Piece Bonus: Burn Passive
