Survival in Devil Hunter depends entirely on the steel in your hands. Whether you’re wielding a Kitchen Knife or unleashing hell with an AK-47, your weapon choice determines your combat effectiveness and progression speed in this Chainsaw Man-inspired Roblox experience. After grinding through countless missions and raids, I’ve compiled everything you need to know about obtaining, crafting, and mastering every weapon available in Devil Hunter.
| Weapon Category | Total Weapons | Best For | Wield Requirement |
|---|---|---|---|
| Light Melee | 6 weapons | Speed & Combos | 2-30 Light Proficiency |
| Medium Melee | 8 weapons | Versatility | 2-30 Medium Proficiency |
| Heavy Melee | 7 weapons | Burst Damage | 2-30 Heavy Proficiency |
| Firearms | 7 weapons | Range & Safety | 2-30 Firearm Proficiency |
| Martial Arts | 3 weapons | Close Combat | 2-30 Martial Arts |
Devil Hunter features over 25 unique weapons spread across five distinct categories. Each weapon type offers different playstyles, damage outputs, and stat requirements. Understanding which weapons suit your build and how to obtain them efficiently will dramatically accelerate your progression from beginner to elite hunter.
There are four primary methods to acquire weapons in Devil Hunter, each serving different stages of your progression journey.
The Armory is located at the spawn area inside Public Safety Headquarters. This is your starting point for basic weapons that don’t require crafting materials.
Available Starter Weapons:
The Katana and 1911 are widely considered the best starter weapons due to their balanced stats and versatile movesets. The Katana offers excellent range and combo potential for melee builds, while the 1911 provides safe distance combat for players who prefer ranged playstyles.
Crafting is the primary method for obtaining mid-tier and high-tier weapons. Here’s exactly how to craft weapons step-by-step:
Step 1: Navigate to Division 2 Captain’s room inside Public Safety HQ
Step 2: Locate and interact with the crafting station (Press ‘E’ key)
Step 3: Browse available weapon recipes
Step 4: Verify you have sufficient crafting materials and Yen
Step 5: Confirm your wield requirement stats meet the weapon’s needs
Step 6: Select “Forge” to craft the weapon
Critical Crafting Tips:
The Black Market is located in an open garage just off Shopping Street. Press ‘N’ to open your phone and locate it on the map. This vendor refreshes inventory every 15 minutes and offers exclusive weapons and materials.
Black Market Exclusive:
The AK-47 represents one of the best endgame firearms available and cannot be crafted. Save your Yen specifically for this purchase if you’re building a firearms-focused character.
Endgame weapons with the highest damage outputs drop exclusively from the Zombie Devil Raid. These weapons have a 10% drop rate and require 30 proficiency in their respective categories.
Raid-Exclusive Weapons:
Pro Raid Farming Strategy: The Zombie Devil Raid has global cooldowns ranging from 30 minutes to 1 hour. Form raid parties through the official Discord server, coordinate timing to maximize attempts, and never enter under-leveled as you’ll forfeit rewards even if your party clears the raid.
Devil Hunter features a robust trading system allowing players to exchange weapons and crafting materials directly on the same server. While trading doesn’t replace farming, it’s excellent for obtaining specific weapons when RNG hasn’t favored your drops.
Light weapons excel at rapid attack speeds, building combo chains, and dodging between strikes. These weapons are perfect for players who prioritize mobility over raw damage.
| Weapon | Damage | Wield Req | How to Obtain | Price/Materials |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kitchen Knife | 6.5 | None | Armory Purchase | 3,500 Yen |
| Combat Knife | 6.8 | 2 Light | Craft | 5 Common Devil Flesh, 15,000 Yen |
| Locust Knife | 6.9 | None | Craft | 15 Common + 5 Uncommon Devil Flesh, 70,000 Yen |
| Velvet Knife | 6.9 | None | Craft | 15 Common + 5 Uncommon + 8 Rare Devil Flesh, 125,000 Yen |
| Kasaka’s Fangs | 7.0 | None | Craft | 40 Common + 20 Uncommon + 10 Rare + 6 Epic Devil Flesh, 180,000 Yen |
| Undead Sickles | 9.0 | 30 Light | Zombie Devil Raid | 10% drop rate |
Best Light Weapon: Kasaka’s Fangs for crafted weapons, Undead Sickles for endgame. The Undead Sickles deal significantly more damage than any crafted light weapon, making them worth farming despite the low drop rate.
Early Game Recommendation: Start with Kitchen Knife or Combat Knife. Both are affordable and help you learn combo mechanics while building Light proficiency for better weapons.
Medium weapons strike the perfect balance between attack speed and damage output. This category contains some of the most powerful craftable weapons in Devil Hunter.
| Weapon | Damage | Wield Req | How to Obtain | Price/Materials |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Katana | 7.0 | None | Armory Purchase | 6,000 Yen (Starter weapon) |
| Yukimura | 7.5 | 2 Medium | Craft | 5 Common Devil Flesh, 15,000 Yen |
| Razorfang | 7.5 | 7 Speed, 10 Medium | Craft | 15 Common + 5 Uncommon Devil Flesh, 70,000 Yen |
| Murasama | 7.5 | 5 Speed, 5 Health, 15 Medium | Craft | 20 Common + 15 Uncommon + 8 Rare Devil Flesh, 125,000 Yen |
| Scarlet Queen | 8.5 | 10 Strength, 15 Medium | Craft | 20 Common + 15 Uncommon + 8 Rare Devil Flesh, 125,000 Yen |
| Yamada | 8.5 | 10 Strength, 20 Medium | Craft | 20 Common + 15 Uncommon + 8 Rare Devil Flesh, 125,000 Yen |
| Kuchigatana | 10.0 | None | Craft | 10 Common + 20 Uncommon + 15 Rare + 10 Epic Devil Flesh + 5 Katana Devil Fragment, 250,000 Yen |
| Rotblade | 12.0 | 30 Medium | Zombie Devil Raid | 10% drop rate |
Best Medium Weapon: Kuchigatana is the strongest craftable weapon in the entire game. The Rotblade surpasses it but requires raid farming. Scarlet Queen and Yamada serve as excellent mid-tier options while you gather materials for Kuchigatana.
Progression Path: Katana → Yukimura → Razorfang → Scarlet Queen/Yamada → Kuchigatana → Farm for Rotblade
The Katana Devil Fragment required for Kuchigatana drops from the Katana Man Raid after completing the Yakuza questline (costs 80,000 Yen + 5 Public Safety kills).
Heavy weapons sacrifice attack speed for devastating damage per hit. These weapons excel at breaking enemy guards, dealing massive posture damage, and eliminating high-HP targets quickly.
| Weapon | Damage | Wield Req | How to Obtain | Price/Materials |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Broad Axe | 8.0 | None | Armory Purchase | 10,000 Yen (Starter weapon) |
| Shibuki | 9.5 | 3 Heavy | Craft | 5 Common Devil Flesh, 15,000 Yen |
| Devil’s Maw | 9.0 | 2 Heavy | Craft | 5 Common Devil Flesh, 15,000 Yen |
| Razor Halberd | 10.0 | 10 Heavy | Craft | 15 Common + 5 Uncommon Devil Flesh, 70,000 Yen |
| Punk Hazard | 12.0 | 20 Heavy | Craft | 20 Common + 15 Uncommon + 5 Rare Devil Flesh, 125,000 Yen |
| Scissor Blade | 15.0 | 20 Heavy | Craft | 20 Common + 15 Uncommon + 8 Rare Devil Flesh, 125,000 Yen |
| Rot & Ruin | 18.0 | 30 Heavy | Zombie Devil Raid | 10% drop rate |
Best Heavy Weapon: Scissor Blade for crafted weapons, Rot & Ruin for absolute maximum damage. The Scissor Blade deals 15.0 damage per hit, making it devastating against bosses and raid enemies.
When to Use Heavy Weapons: Heavy weapons shine in mid-to-late game PvE content where burst damage matters more than attack speed. They’re less effective in PvP due to slower swing speeds allowing opponents to dodge between attacks.
Firearms are widely considered S-tier weapons because they allow you to eliminate enemies from safe distances while avoiding melee range dangers. These weapons require ammo management but offer unparalleled safety in PvE farming.
| Weapon | Damage | Wield Req | How to Obtain | Price/Materials |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1911 | 7.0 | None | Armory Purchase | 10,000 Yen (Starter weapon) |
| Greenshot | 7.5 | 2 Firearm | Craft | 5 Common Devil Flesh + 3 Sea Cucumber Devil Flesh, 22,500 Yen |
| Model: Uzi | 10.0 | 15 Firearm | Craft | 5 Common + 5 Uncommon Devil Flesh + 1 Gun Devil Flesh, 70,000 Yen |
| Cobalt Bloom | 8.0 | None | Craft | 10 Common + 7 Uncommon + 6 Rare Devil Flesh + 2 Gun Devil Flesh, 125,000 Yen |
| Cross Punisher | 8.0 | 15 Firearm, 5 Health | Craft | 20 Common + 15 Uncommon + 8 Rare Devil Flesh, 125,000 Yen |
| AK-47 | 2.625 | 20 Firearm | Black Market Purchase | 200,000 Yen |
| Brainsplasher | 10.0 | 30 Firearm | Zombie Devil Raid | 10% drop rate |
Best Firearms: AK-47 and Brainsplasher dominate the firearms category. The AK-47’s lower per-shot damage is offset by its extremely high fire rate, resulting in superior DPS compared to most weapons.
Firearms vs Melee: Firearms allow you to farm missions safely without taking damage, making them ideal for solo progression. However, they require constant ammo purchases from vendors, adding an ongoing Yen cost to your progression.
Martial Arts weapons represent hand-to-hand combat specializations. These weapons lack the versatility of other categories but excel in specific niche builds.
| Weapon | Damage | Wield Req | How to Obtain | Price/Materials |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Left & Right | 8.0 | None | Craft | 5 Common Devil Flesh, 15,000 Yen |
| Devil Crusher | 9.0 | 15 Martial Arts, 10 Health | Craft | 20 Common + 15 Uncommon + 8 Rare Devil Flesh, 125,000 Yen |
| Fleshbreaker | 10.0 | 30 Martial Arts | Zombie Devil Raid | 10% drop rate |
Best Martial Arts Weapon: Devil Crusher for crafted weapons, Fleshbreaker for endgame. Martial Arts weapons are generally considered niche compared to other categories but can be powerful in specialized builds focusing on close-quarters combat.
Understanding how to efficiently farm crafting materials is crucial for weapon progression. Here’s where to obtain each material type:
Common Devil Flesh:
Uncommon Devil Flesh:
Rare Devil Flesh:
Epic Devil Flesh:
Special Materials:
Material Farming Efficiency Tips:
Based on extensive testing, community meta analysis, and damage calculations, here’s how every weapon ranks:
Why S-Tier Matters: These weapons clear all available content efficiently, excel in both PvE and PvP, and remain viable through endgame progression.
Raid Weapons (Special Category – All S+ Tier):
All raid weapons significantly outperform craftable alternatives in their categories and should be farmed once you reach 30 proficiency.
Starting Devil Hunter can be overwhelming. Here’s my recommended weapon progression for new players:
Level 1-10 (Complete Beginner):
Level 10-25 (Early Progression):
Level 25-40 (Mid Game):
Level 40-60 (Late Game Preparation):
Level 60+ (Endgame):
Beginner Mistake to Avoid: Don’t craft multiple weapons across different categories early. Focus on mastering one weapon type, build proficiency in that category, then diversify later. Crafting weapons randomly dilutes your item pool and wastes limited materials.
Every weapon has a hidden mastery level that increases with use. Higher mastery unlocks:
Fastest Mastery Farming: Repeatedly complete the Aftermath Detail mission using your chosen weapon. This mission has quick clear times and high enemy density, maximizing mastery gains per hour.
Light Weapons:
Medium Weapons:
Heavy Weapons:
Firearms:
Martial Arts:
If you’re pursuing Hybrid transformation (combining Fiend biology with Human weapons), weapon choice becomes even more critical:
Best Weapons for Katana Hybrid:
Best Weapons for General Hybrids:
PvP Optimal Weapons:
PvE Optimal Weapons:
Why the Difference: PvP favors mobility and safety since player opponents can dodge and counter-attack. PvE favors raw damage since AI enemies have predictable patterns and high HP pools.
Understanding total costs helps you budget Yen and materials efficiently:
Cost-Saving Strategy: Farm all Common and Uncommon materials yourself. Only purchase Rare materials from Black Market when absolutely needed. Never buy Epic materials as they’re prohibitively expensive.
Based on watching hundreds of new players, here are the most frequent mistakes and how to avoid them:
Problem: New players craft every available weapon, diluting their resources
Solution: Focus on one weapon category, master it, then expand
Problem: Crafting weapons before meeting stat requirements
Solution: Always check wield requirements before farming materials
Problem: Trying to farm materials for high-tier weapons immediately
Solution: Use Katana or 1911 to build proficiency and earn Yen first
Problem: Attempting Zombie Devil Raid solo with insufficient gear
Solution: Join coordinated raid groups through Discord
Problem: Selling weapons for quick Yen
Solution: Keep weapons for mastery building and potential trading
Problem: Heavy weapon users investing in Speed stats
Solution: Match weapon type to stat distribution
Problem: Missing Black Market refreshes for rare materials
Solution: Set 15-minute timers when farming materials
Yes, Devil Hunter features a full trading system. You can trade weapons and crafting materials directly with other players on the same server. However, trading doesn’t replace farming since you’ll need materials for multiple weapons throughout progression.
Light and Medium weapons are ideal for beginners. They have lower wield requirements (starting at 2 proficiency), cheaper crafting costs (often just Common Devil Flesh), and faster attack speeds that help you learn combat mechanics and combo systems without punishing mistakes.
Gun Devil Flesh drops from Gun Devil encounters found in specific high-level missions and raids. It’s also occasionally available at the Black Market, though expensive. The Model: Uzi requires only 1 Gun Devil Flesh, making it the most accessible gun requiring this material.
The fastest Yen farming methods are:
No, Fiends cannot wield traditional weapons. This is one of the major differences between Human and Fiend races. Humans have access to all weapon categories and crafting, while Fiends rely on their biological abilities, passive regeneration, and Fiend Talents. Only Humans can become Hybrids and combine both weapon mastery with enhanced biology.
Start farming raid weapons once you reach Level 60+ and have 30 proficiency in your chosen weapon category. Attempting raids earlier results in failed runs and wasted time since you’ll die before completion and forfeit all rewards. Build your character with crafted weapons first, then transition to raid farming.
Obtaining Kuchigatana requires:
Average Timeline: 15-25 hours of focused gameplay for experienced players, 30-40 hours for new players learning systems.
Not necessarily. Price correlates with tier but doesn’t determine effectiveness for your specific build. The Scarlet Queen (125,000 Yen) performs similarly to the more expensive Kuchigatana (250,000 Yen) in many scenarios. Choose weapons based on your playstyle, stat distribution, and progression stage rather than price alone.
Yes, but it requires wiping your entire build, which resets all progress including stats, contracts, and progression. There’s no way to simply change weapons without major consequences. This is why choosing your first weapon carefully matters so much.
Firearms, particularly the AK-47 and Cross Punisher, are optimal for solo play. They allow you to clear missions from safe distances without taking damage, reducing the need for healing items and minimizing death penalties. The Katana is the best melee option for solo players due to its balanced stats and defensive capabilities.
Your weapon choice significantly impacts which Devil Contracts work best with your build:

After hundreds of hours testing every weapon in Devil Hunter, here are my definitive recommendations:
Mastering Devil Hunter’s weapon system separates casual players from elite hunters. Whether you’re wielding the starter Katana or grinding raids for Rotblade, understanding weapon mechanics, crafting progression, and strategic farming transforms your gameplay experience.
Remember: weapon choice isn’t just about damage numbers. Consider your playstyle, stat distribution, available materials, and progression goals. A well-chosen medium-tier weapon matching your build outperforms a top-tier weapon that contradicts your stats.
Start with the Katana for melee or 1911 for ranged, farm Common Devil Flesh from early missions, craft progressively better weapons as materials accumulate, and eventually transition to raid farming once you hit Level 60 with 30 proficiency.
Save this guide and refer back as you progress through Devil Hunter’s weapon tiers. The path from Kitchen Knife to Rotblade represents dozens of hours of strategic farming.
