Pixel Blade has a huge lineup of weapons, abilities, and special passives that can change how you play the game. With every update adding new epics, legendaries, and unique mechanics, many players get confused about which weapons are actually worth using.
This guide breaks down the major weapons from all worlds and ranks them based on overall performance, damage, abilities, and usefulness in different modes. This is not a world-specific ranking—this is an all-around tier list that helps you figure out what’s truly strong right now. Also check out our Pixel Blade Codes for more rewards!
All Weapons Ranked From Lowest to Highest
1. Golden Hand
Golden Hand is a newer weapon, but it falls short when it comes to real combat. Its main feature is summoning troops, similar to Dead Stick but slightly stronger. Even though it spawns multiple units, the damage output isn’t enough to compete with other weapons. It’s more of a support tool than a DPS choice, so it stays at the bottom.
2. Necromancer Blade
This weapon also focuses on summoning, but the summons attack slowly and don’t contribute much to real fights. It looks cool, and the ability is fun to use, but in tougher content the damage doesn’t keep up. Summoner weapons in general struggle unless used for niche strategies, so this one stays low on the list.
3. Dragon’s Heart
Dragon’s Heart used to be much stronger before its ability was toned down. It still has good burn damage and solid output when paired with basic attacks. The burn stacks nicely, and it’s reliable for mid-game runs. Even so, its ability isn’t strong enough to push it into top tier, but it remains usable for players who don’t own higher-ranked weapons.
4. Royalist
Royalist is one of the strongest epic weapons in the game thanks to its invincibility ability. Activating it makes you unhittable for four seconds and also gives a speed boost. While it doesn’t boost your damage, the survivability alone makes it amazing for clutch moments, tight fights, and risky challenges. Simple, safe, and surprisingly strong for an epic.
5. Ice Spear
Great for solo runs and crowd fights. Ice Spear lets you apply vulnerability by hitting with the right-click stab, and following up with basic attacks delivers big burst damage. The ability also covers a wide area and looks clean in combat. Between vulnerability, AoE, and mobility from the lunge, Ice Spear stands out as one of the top epic picks overall.
6. Titan
Titan stores the damage you receive during its ability phase and releases it in a massive burst on your next attack. This can lead to huge damage spikes, especially in Nightmare Tundra where enemies hit extremely hard. In the right hands, Titan becomes a clutch boss-killer, but it requires timing and awareness, so it stays mid-high tier.
7. Stellar
Stellar remains one of the strongest weapons, even after nerfs. It has fast hits, strong DPS, and an ability that stuns up to four enemies while dealing high damage. There’s almost no end lag, meaning you can follow up instantly with more attacks. It has aged well and still performs in almost any mode, which keeps it inside the top three.
8. Solar
Solar used to be the top weapon in the game before its targeting was nerfed. It still has strong burn damage and great DPS, especially at level 4. The main drawback is that its ability no longer hits enemies behind obstacles, limiting its original power. Even with that weakness, Solar remains one of the strongest general-use weapons and earns the number two spot.
9. Imperialist – The Best Non-Vaulted Weapon
Imperialist takes the number one rank. At level 4, it gains frost damage and becomes an all-purpose monster. The ability chains to nine enemies, applies stun, boosts your movement speed, and allows smooth follow-up attacks. It’s one of the best choices for speedruns and regular grinding, offering insane value without needing a vaulted weapon. If you don’t own Void Reaver or Black Star 4, this is the next best thing.
All Weapon Tier List & Why
S Tier — Best picks (use these when you can)
Imperialist — Top pick
-
Extremely versatile. Chains to many enemies, stuns, gives a massive speed boost, and gains frost at higher levels.
-
Best all-rounder: speedruns, clearing crowds, and general play. If you don’t have a vaulted god-weapon, this is the one to carry.
Void Reaver / Black Star (level 4) — Vault-contenders (mention)
-
When at level 4 these weapons become broken. If you have them and hit level 4, they outclass most other legendaries.
-
If you own these, use them over almost anything else.
Solar
-
High burn damage and strong DPS from its ability. Nerfs made it less OP, but it still deals consistent damage over time and performs well in many fights.
A Tier — Excellent choices
Stellar
-
Very fast, stuns on ability, and great DPS. Still top tier for burst and crowd control even after nerfs.
Titan
-
Unique mechanic: stores incoming damage and releases it on your next hit. Situational but clutch in nightmare/tundra fights where enemies hit hard. Great for burst counters.
Dragon’s Heart
-
Good burn and stacking potential with M1s. Ability scaled down from earlier power but still solid for sustained damage.
B Tier — Strong, but situational or niche
Ice Spear
-
Excellent for solo runs: right-click makes enemies vulnerable, ability clears crowds, and it lunges you forward. High single-target and AoE value if you use the jab → combo properly.
Royalist
-
Epic tier that grants invulnerability for a short window + speed. Broken in clutch scenarios because you can’t be hit during the ability; great for survival and aggressive plays, less about pure DPS.
Golden Hand
-
Summon/support weapon. Spawns troops that deal damage, but it’s more of a support tool than a primary damage source.
C Tier — Useful in narrow roles or for fun
Dead Stick / Summoner-type weapons (Necromancer Blade, Dead Stick)
-
Summon helpers that hit slowly. Good for kiting and support runs but low direct DPS. They shine in defensive/survival play but won’t carry you in DPS races.
Necromancer Blade
-
Decent heavy weapon, but the summon mechanic and slow attack speed leave it behind in damage-focused comparisons.
That covers the full breakdown of the top weapons in Pixel Blade. Each weapon has its own strengths, but when ranked purely by overall performance, Imperialist comes out on top, followed by Solar and Stellar. Whether you want speed, damage, or survivability, this guide should help you pick the best weapon for your playstyle. Keep experimenting, keep upgrading, and enjoy the grind.
