TIER LIST ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ IF YOU'RE BLIND THEN YOU'RE SOL

Made a guide explaining my choices so its not just like the list and people comentting why this why that and i have to explain. After 260+ hours of this game you know a thing or two and I felt like putting more effort into a tier list than my ROR2 list. The point is tho over my time playing left 4 dead I've noticed some people choosing some questionable weapons and looking at other tier lists they're made by some åsshole who fückin speedruns l4d2 or only plays versus and I think its pretty boring to listen to them ramble on about stats and s̴hit. Speaking or rambling, I'm done hear go read the rest of this s̴hit.
S tier
AK47: Amazing gun, its pretty much a full auto military sniper sure its slow but if you can aim good then this will get the job more than done.

M60: While this weapon is only available on certain campaigns it's power is far too good to pass up, coupled with a laser this is a damn fine weapon.

M79/Grenade Launcher: This thing is awesome you can kill hordes of commons, stagger specials and even a fücking tank and witch. Whats not to love about it? Besides that its a slow reload and it can kill your teammates.

Katana: This by far the best melee, it has great range and its sweep can hit up to ten commons at once, when I see one you know imma grab that s̴hit.

Fire Axe: Steam tells me this is my most used melee and for good reason, common, reliable, and damn fun to use.
A tier
XM1014/Tactical Shotgun: Great for running and gunning, wide spread makes it possible to take out hordes of commons in seconds. Great for killing tanks fast and crowning witches, all around great shotgun

Spas-12/Combat Shotgun: honestly just an M10 reskin, great shotgun would pick up

G3A3/Military Sniper: Can't really go wrong with a sniper rifle, great damage, collat commons, one shot most specials. With a laser, surprisingly good at running and gunning

Mini 14/Hunting Rifle: Gonna be real, this is also a G3 reskin except fifteenth less in a magazine. Still would pick up tho

M16: Like the AK but not as much damage but much higher fire rate. Makes a good pick when there's no auto shotguns or AK.

Machete: Good melee if you have a blunt melee, no melee, or you haven't found a axe/katana
B tier
Mossberg 590/Chrome shotgun: Probably the most common weapon, its good at the start and can be easily replaced.

Mossberg 500/Wood shotgun: Once again a reskin of the 590, pretty much the same you'll probably see this one just as much as the 590 if not both together.

Glock/Akimbo Glock: You'll probably see this gun the most in the game since you start with it, not very good with one but when you get two you can spam them and do some good damage.

Desert Eagle/Magnum: Good damage, can colat commons, and looks cool. Really tho its not bad you could main it if you wanted to its got the power but good luck on higher difficulties.

SG553: Some could call it a M16 with a scope, its got the fire rate for sure but to me it under preforms a little. Would still pick up if i can't find anything better.

SCAR-H/Battle Rifle: Ngl I love this gun, its like the in between of the AK and M16. Pretty good damage and fast three round burst, coupled with a laser its a pretty nice gun kills specials fast too.

Chainsaw: Unlike the already covered melee's this one doesn't sweep, its a single target melee. This is a good thing because its constantly hitting, so this is a good pick for crescendos like on death toll. Only downside is its takes a while to get out and its limited use.



C tier
MP5: Honestly a piece of s̴hit, i wouldn't wanna be caught dead with this. Decent fire rate but with pitiful damage, would not pick up.

UZI: Unlike the MP5 this has good fire rate so its actually useful, good chapter 1 to 2 weapon.

MAC10: Same as the UZI not much to say.

Crowbar, Cricket Bat, Baseball Bat, Golf Club, Police Baton, Guitar: All blunt melee's, capable of killing multiple commons at once. Not great but better than nothing
D tier
AWP: Alright its not necessary "bad" its the fact that its a military sniper but slow as fück. Fun to use every now and again.

Steyr Scout Rifle: Same as the AWP but worse like the MP5, wouldn't be caught dead with it

Frying Pan: At the sight of this in D tier and you are the average TF2 player you're probably thinking "uuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhh PaN Is BeSt WeApOn CuZ LoUd heeee heee heee." But if you're not a massive rҽtard you would know this melee blows in L4D2. Why? you may ask, well it does sweep and can hit many commons but the thing is it doesn't hit as many as something like the Bat would because valve was sensible enough to put some thought into melee's. My point is the pan is small as fück and can't hit more than like four commons unlike the Axe or Katana that is long and can hit far more.

CS:S Knife: Who the fück thought this was a good idea to put in? Seriously this melee is dogs̴hit, I'd go so far to say its worse than the pan. I don't even know what to say man, the only reason you would use this is because you got a karambit mod for it so you can trickshot or some s̴hit. Don't pick this up you just look fückin retarded if you do.
End
That's it I guess, honestly all the weapons are good o try not to fückin dox me cuz i said the pan is bad. Go ahead and pick it up I don't care, kill a tank or a witch with it or fück even the cs knife kill em with that and send me a clip of it or whatever. Just have fun and if some åsshole bhops ahead of you and is already at the end of the chapter that may or may not be me. Also LIKE, FAVIORTE, AWARD, UH FÜCKING COMMENT IF YOU AGREE IF YOU DON'T AGREE KYṠ.
FÜCK I FORGOT LAST STAND WEAPONS UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUHHHHHHHHHHH SHOVLE IS B TIER AND PITCH FORK IS D CUZ ITS DÖGSHIT

ive put another 100 or so hours in l4d so i really should update this
X 20 Jul, 2024 @ 5:16am 
and you can shorten the reload (not full reload from 0 to 15 or 20, but between shots) of scout and awp by just shoving after a shot
X 20 Jul, 2024 @ 5:15am 
scout and awp have literally the same stats as military and hunting snipers, so i'd put it in A
silenced mac has better damage than normal smg therefore its B
put chrome shotgun in A because in comparison to pump, chrome has 8 bullets with each of 31 damage while pump has 10 bullets with each of 25 damage therefore chrome shotgun is more accurate and because of it more damage
deagle should be put in A because its overpowered, infinite ammo, fast reload, high accuracy and damage
knife was overhauled recently so it should be put in C
chainsaw should be put in S
military sniper and hunting rifle are the same with exception of magazine capacity and they're the best weapons so S
