The Free Fire meta ranking system evaluates every weapon across three critical performance dimensions: time-to-kill (40% weight), damage per second (35% weight), and armor penetration efficiency (25% weight). This composite scoring produces a balanced assessment that reflects real competitive viability.
S-Tier weapons (score 80+) represent the absolute best choices in the current meta. These weapons consistently outperform alternatives across most combat scenarios. A-Tier weapons (65-79) are strong picks that excel in specific situations. B-Tier (50-64) weapons are viable but may have notable weaknesses. C-Tier (35-49) and D-Tier (below 35) weapons are generally outclassed by higher-tier options.
The OB44 update brought significant weapon balance changes. Assault rifles remain dominant at mid-range, with the AK and Groza maintaining S-tier status. SMGs received minor buffs to close-range performance, making the MP5 and Vector more competitive in aggressive playstyles. Sniper rifles remain situational but devastating for skilled players who land headshots consistently.
Click column headers to sort by any metric. Use the filters to narrow by weapon type or armor level. The score reflects overall combat effectiveness under standard conditions (close range, no armor, body shots). Adjust the armor filter to see how weapons perform against armored targets — some weapons that rank highly without armor drop significantly when armor is factored in, revealing their true competitive tier.
