The Darktide community tier lists rank every weapon, class, talent, enemy and mission in Warhammer 40,000: Darktide using the tier lists players have already published on this site, combined with head to head votes cast by signed in users. Nothing here is set by an editor, so the Darktide tier list you see below shifts as the playerbase changes its mind.
Which Darktide community tier lists you can browse
Each Darktide tier list covers one kind of thing and carries its own ranking, from S tier down to D tier. Pick the list you care about and you get every ranked entry in that category, grouped by tier.
- Darktide weapon tier list: every melee and ranged weapon the community has ranked.
- Darktide class tier list: Veteran, Zealot, Psyker, Ogryn and the rest, ordered by how highly players rate them.
- Darktide talent tier list: the talents players pick out of the skill trees.
- Darktide enemy tier list: how dangerous the community considers each enemy in the game.
- Darktide mission tier list: which missions players want to load into and which ones they skip.
How the Darktide community tier list is calculated
Two sources feed every Darktide tier list. The first is the pool of public tier lists players have saved on this site, where the position an entry is given on each list counts as a ranking. The second is direct head to head voting, where you are shown two Darktide weapons, classes or enemies and pick the stronger one. Those votes are fitted with a Plackett-Luce model, which turns a pile of individual comparisons into a single ordering.
Both signals are combined into one score per entry, and the scores are cut into the S to D bands. An entry needs votes from more than one contributor before it is given a tier at all, which keeps a single opinion from deciding where a Darktide weapon lands.
Voting on the Darktide tier lists
Sign in and every Darktide community tier list page shows a head to head prompt underneath the tiers. Pick the entry you rate higher, or skip the pair if you have no opinion, and your answer is folded into the next recalculation. Building your own full Darktide tier list works too, because every public list counts towards the community ranking.
