THE FINALS Season 3 B-Tier Heavy Weapons
Spear
This weapon seems buggy as you barely do any damage, and the lack of destruction makes it even worse.
CONS
- Awful melee utility
- Inconsistent
MGL32
This grenade launcher is very inconsistent in terms of damage as the self-damage can also be rather annoying to manage when you are in close quarters.
Flamethrower
The short range of the Flamethrower makes it very useless, especially on maps with high grounds and open spaces.

THE FINALS Season 3 A-Tier Heavy Weapons
Sledgehammer
Possibly one of the most fun weapons with one-shot combos by using the Winch Claw.
CONS
- Slow attack
KS-23
This shotgun's projectiles don't do consistent damage, however, you can get some snappy kills in close-range combat.
PROS
- Decent DPS
CONS
- Inconsistent damage
SA1216
Although no major changes were introduced to the SA1216, the Winch Claw helps you effectively close the gap between your enemies and blast them down.

THE FINALS Season 3 S-Tier Heavy Weapons
Lewis Gun
The Lewis Gun is a counterpart to the M60 as it has almost no recoil for the first 10 bullets or so, however, the pattern drastically shifts forcing you to constantly adjust your aim.
CONS
- High recoil
M60
The M60 is designed for players who want to relive their Rambo fantasies, as although the damage falloff is kinda annoying, you will be decimating your opponents left and right.
PROS
- Amazing at spraying down enemies
- Practically no recoil past the first 10 shots
CONS
- Terrible recoil the first couple of shots
