Indie sensation Romestead has a fair variety of weapons to use, and you can craft them with the necessary resources. You find weapons of different types and standards, and using the better ones will help you to clear the in-game content quicker.
Let’s find out how each type of weapon ranks in the current build of the game.

Complete Romestead weapons tier list
I have used two different tiers to separate the available weapons. However, there’s something you should consider. Every weapon type has multiple variants, and I have considered the best one. The stats you see in the table below also reflect the same.
- S-tier weapons are perfect choices for beginners and veterans alike. They’re easy to use and do an incredible amount of damage.
- A-tier weapons are good choices, but they might be harder to master. Some of their usage scenarios are also highly situational.
S-tier
| Weapon Category | Stats | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Sledgehammer | Damage: 22-24 (Bronze variant) Speed: Fast | The Sledgehammer is easy to master, and it does plenty of damage. It can also one-shot squishy enemies, and has decent range. The Sledgehammer is pretty much the best melee weapon, and the right-click attack knocks back an enemy to create space. |
| Aegis | N/A (Shield) Speed: Fast | Normally, I wouldn’t put a shield in a tier list meant for weapons. However, the Aegis can petrify an enemy if you manage to parry the incoming attack. The parry window is a tad too short for my liking, but I still think it’s worth mastering the skill. |
| Arcuballista | 16-18 Piercing (Tectonic variant) 2-4 Blunt on hit Speed: Fast | Using the bow feels slightly iffy due to the aim mechanism. That problem gets resolved when you use the Arcuballista. The crossbow also does blunt damage upon impact that raises the overall damage. You can also pair this weapon with your primary melee option to make your build more powerful. |
A-tier
| Weapon Category | Stats | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Pilum | Damage: 25-30 Speed: Fast | The Pilum is a ranged weapon that you can throw at your enemies. It deals a lot of damage, and its range is decent. However, you can only use a single Pilum once, and the aiming isn’t the smoothest. I don’t like having the worry of running out of it when I will require it the most. In the right hands, it’s still a great consumable to use. |
| Gladius | 10-12 (Bronze) Speed: Fast | The Gladius is a sword that can be used to do melee attacks. It has decent speed and good damage output. However, it doesn’t have a special ability like the Sledgehammer. |
| Hastas | Damage: 12-14 (Bronze) Speed: Fast | The Hasta is a good choice for you if you love to use a spear. However, you’ll need to master your positioning skills to get the most out of the weapon. Once you do that, the Hasta can be a wonderful choice, and you can also combine it with a shield to do more damage while nullifying incoming attacks. |
