Of course, to topple the toughest bosses, you’ll need to use the best weapons.
We’ll also break down each weapon, explaining how they work and what makes them particularly strong.
These forms include the base staff, a tonfa, a shuriken, and a pike.
By the end of Chapter 1, you should have every weapon unlocked.
Each weapon has a large upgrade tree which branches out into three sections.
Wild Hearts Best Weapons Tier List:
8.
Cannon
The Cannon is the heaviest ranged weapon in Wild Hearts, making it much slower than the Bow.
It’s far more powerful, but that power comes with a large caveat.
To regain ammo, you must place down a Ki Base.
When your ammo is full, it’s possible for you to get back to firing on your enemies.
As you land shots, you’ll charge your special gauge.
This is one of Wild Hearts' toughest attacks, but it’ll take practice to pull off consistently.
Maul
The Maul is a big, whopping hammer, and it’s Wild Hearts' heaviest weapon.
Heavy weapons mean big damage, which should prove useful when trying to topple those Giant Kemono bosses.
While it might be tempting to just stick with one stance, swapping often will make you much stronger.
Okay, it does a little more than that.
Placing a Torch down, for example, will set the Katana alight and perform a flaming lunge strike.
This parry ability doesn’t make the Bladed Wagasa a more defensive option, though.
Claw Blade
The Claw Blade is all about moving fast.
you might dart around while hitting the enemy with quick slash attacks, like your typical fantasy rogue.
Nodachi
The Nodachi is a big ol' sword, and we’re big fans.
It’s much heavier than most other weapons, but its damage potential is also much higher.
As you strike your enemy and avoid their attacks, you’ll charge up its special gauge.
When full, you might drain it to unleash an incredibly powerful downward slam that will devastate most enemies.
Be patient, and you’ll deliver some incredibly high damage.
Karakuri Staff
As mentioned at the top of this page, nothing else compares to the Karakuri Staff.
That wraps up our guide on the best weapons in Wild Hearts.
