Tier list, as two boards

I will not name a single best weapon. One board is a launch-week community list. The other is a closed-test ranking tied to a Kanima video. They disagree.
Weapons
Launch-week board: S long sword, heavy bowgun, charge blade. A great sword, bow, dual blades, hammer. B lance. The note says charge blade is only on the custom protagonist.
Closed test: top remote weapons were heavy bowgun and bow, with dual blades preferred in melee. No damage samples are attached to either board.
| Adventurer board | Launch-week | Closed test |
|---|---|---|
| High | Protagonist, Midori, Arkaya | Luka, Midori, Madelyn, Luxheart |
| Middle | Keres, Madelyn, Luka, Raya, Rhodes, Pyro, Pepper, Ryunosuke | Arkaya, Pyro, Ouyang Varen |
| Lower | Luxheart, Ouyang Varen | Keres, Ryunosuke, Raya, then Pepper |
How to read an absent rank
An older list that does not rank a weapon does not prove that the weapon was unavailable in every test. The launch press release confirms Charge Blade at launch; the community CBT3 timeline is kept as a different historical claim. Freya and Stylia are not assigned a new rank here when a board omits them.
Questions
Which weapon should I craft first?
For comfort, see the beginner guide. For the launch-week strength opinion, long sword, heavy bowgun, or charge blade.
