Heavy Revolver Mk IIC tier
Single-shot weapons, low-capacity novelty picks, and weapons whose best case depends on a narrow encounter sit here. The Musket and Marksman Pistol can show large base damage without providing the repeatability of a normal loadout.
D tier
Routine weak-value picks belong here when another owned weapon fills the same role with a better magazine, fire rate, range profile, or access path. D tier does not mean the weapon cannot kill an NPC. It means there is little reason to make it the default.
Methodology
Automatic weapons are compared using base damage, RPM, magazine, range, and drop-off. Snipers, shotguns, explosives, and drive-by weapons receive role-based evaluation because one body-shot formula would misrepresent them. Headshot values are not treated as one universal multiplier.
