How to read the board
S and A are things that open a route or a basic gun. B is useful after that. C is optional Robux. D is the million-kill handgun. Magazine size is listed on the weapon pages. Damage numbers are not used here because the shop tables do not publish them.
S tier
Player decision Buy this before any later gun if your goal is the escape or the Reality unlock.
A tier
Player decision Unlock it while learning corridors. Do not expect its 7-round magazine to carry a long Survival fight.
Player decision Pick it up in Lurking Danger before you hunt the You Ran chase.
Player decision Get it at the Electrical Station before you look for the bomb. The bomb is absent for the first 15 minutes of a server and only once per server.
B tier
Player decision Join The LitterBox if you want this for Classic farming. It is not a first-ten-kills item, and it is separate from the Firework Launcher.
Player decision A Classic horde gun after you already own the quest items. It is a poor reason to delay Bloxy Cola.
C tier
Player decision Skip them until you know you play Classic or Survival. Reclaim old guns at the shop before buying a replacement after Update 1.2.
D tier
Player decision Ignore it on a first session. The Desert Eagle at 350 kills is the handgun you can actually use while learning.
