The Best Incarnon Weapons in Warframe | Full Tier List

Warframe has no shortage of powerful weapons, and the Incarnon variants count at the very top. But, although Incarnon weapons are more rare, there’s plenty of them, too. That’s why we made a tier list of the best Incarnon weapons in Warframe!

Our tier list contains all Incarnon weapons currently present in the game. We’ve decided to include every weapon to give you the most complete overview. Also, our tier list only goes down to C-tier because we don’t believe any of the Incarnon weapons are objectively bad—it’s more a matter of which ones can be used most efficiently by most players.

With that in mind, let’s jump into the list. You can also read all about Warframe codes and how to redeem them, if you’re up for some freebies!

Warframe Incarnon Weapons Tier List

We’re about to share our tier list for Incarnon weapons in Warframe. Note that the list is by no means definitive. Your ideal weapon will depend on many factors, including your skill level, personal playstyle, and the Warframe you choose.

Before we start our list, note that we’ll compare all weapons only in their first Evolution, i.e., the one that activates the weapon’s Incarnon form. We’ll also look at Zariman and Incarnon Genesis together rather than separating them into individual lists.

From B-Tier on, all weapons will fall into the Incarnon Genesis category, so we’ll omit that column from the rest of the list.

As you can notice, the majority of weapons in the C-tier fall either into the Melee or Secondary type. This should come as no surprise. If you want to use a melee weapon in Warframe as effectively as a ranged one, you need to develop plenty of skill and a specific playstyle. In other words, the weapons themselves might not be bad, but they’ll fall behind compared to other options, especially for an average player.

Also unsurprisingly, our S and A-tiers are populated with Zariman Incarnon weaponry. With only five of those currently available, Zariman traditional Incarnon weapons still dominate the overall selection. The trade-off is, of course, that they’re harder to obtain.

This concludes our tier list for Incarnon weapons in Warframe. If you have different suggestions about the tier placement (or an entire list of your own), don’t hesitate to share it in the comments. Everyone has their preferred style, so it’s only natural that one player’s A-tier weapon will be another’s B-tier and so on!
