Introduction
This guide shows you the most powerful (taking both damage and stats into mind) weapons of each element available. See the format used:
Weapon A (Best)->Weapon B (Powerful alternate)

"=" means the weapon is equal to the next weapon.
"/" usually after a DC weapon, stating that this next weapon if you don't have the DC's you should probably get, as it's the next one.
(NOTE FOR RECENT WEAPON SETS, I WILL NOT ADD THE REGULAR NON DA WEAPONS IF THEY ARRIVE IN THE AFTER QUEST SHOP FOR A SMALL AMOUNT OF DC'S, THEY ARE BETTER THAN THE NON DC VERSIONS)
"->" The weapon stated before this symbol means this weapon is better than the next one mentioned, this could also be used after the DC version if necessary.

This guide is only for weapons that are always available.

Please note that there may be several other weapons that are almost as strong as weapons listed in this guide. So if you have a weapon that's average damage is 1-2 points lower, you might want to use it instead of farming for that strongest one.

The strength of weapons listed in this guide is based on average damage, so there may be weapons that have higher max. hit, but aren't listed because their average damage is lower.

I have left Necrotic Sword of Doom out of the list, since you get it automatically in your inventory when you buy first part of DoomKnight package, and since you have to buy it separately, using real money. For the same reasons I have not -and will not- add weapons you get by buying some sort of merchandise.

PM me any mistakes that you find, or weapons that I missed. I'll add you to the credits as well.

Please allow 1 week after a release for me to update the guide. If still not done, PM ME ASAP!

Quickfind System: Press command (macs) or control +F (windows) and then enter the three letter code, follow by the required level (no spaces).

Log
Note: I already know that this list will eventually get huge, so I might not add every single change I do, but I will every time I add weapons of new release, so that people will know when was the last time the guide was updated.

December 5th: Wow, been a while! Nalmir Series, Wavecrest Series, High Tide Series, Deluge Series and Demon Chopper Series added.
December 29th: Oh man....went too long without an update. 301st series, and Cysero's Stick Series is added!

September 7th: Mostly up to date! Need to do current release weapons. However, Chained, Bound, Shackled, Antipode Series, Vaekan's Reaper, and only level 80 version of Escelense Dragon Defenders were added, no point in doing each of them when they dont even beat the 2nd best weapon in their level.

February 4th: Added in Coral Sets, new ??? weapon set, Crystal Ice set and Eternal Flame set and Enhanced Blazeheart series are added.
May 17th: Wow, I figured out the problem of the previous errors and now the guide is broken up slightly differently (1-30), (31-60), (61+) The Luminous Whiff set has been added, All the rare weapons / promotional weapons have been added to the Line of the best, this includes Eternity Love set, Foam Hammer set, Blade, Stave, and Edge of Valentine's Pride sets, Fighters Ex's Calibur set, Lucky Day 2013 weapons, Grenwog Dragon Egg Sword, Staff and Edge sets, Fallen Ice Dragon Sword, Staff and Edge sets, Shadowscythe Reaper set, Thyton's Magitech Scythe set (This one in turn also beat out the Cinco de Mayo weapon sets!), and only the level 80 Dazzling Midnight Wish (Melee, Pierce, and Magic) sets
May 22nd: Added in Blood Red Crystal Blade set, Sky Blue Crystal Blade set, Moss Green Crystal Blade set, Sand Sword/Spear/Claw sets
June 4th: Added in Enhanced Butterfly Delusion set, Enhanced Watcher's Wings set, Dark Enchanted Esoterica set, and Sneegion Sword of DOOM set
June 5th: Came to the conclusion that Shining Eternal Hourglass sets and Amon Ra's Eye set would not make it into the guide as they are to be kicked out easily by their competitors! I did however add Alluring Evil set, Airslasher set and finished off Electroshock set!
June 16th: Kheparis Will, Kheparis Skill, and Kheparis Strength sets have been added
June 22nd: Deadly Swamp Axe, Deadly Swamp Sai, and Deadly Swamp Stick sets have been added
