Survive a Million Monkeys Tier Lists

The best choice depends on what you need next. Survive a Million Monkeys tier lists compare guns for access and later crowd pressure, and classes for a cooperative role. Each ranking states its editorial criterion, so you can use a tier as a recommendation for a situation rather than an official balance verdict.

I need a gun priorityCompare an editorial access-and-progression ranking before committing to a later battle purchase.

Choose the ranking that fits the decision

Read the criterion before the letter. The weapon list places the Minigun as a later crowd-clearing target, the community SMG as an accessible reward option, the Burst rifle as a distinct firing pattern and the Pistol as a starter baseline. That progression ranking does not mean a new player should ignore a free eligible gun while saving for the highest tier.

The class list asks a different question: which broad role gives a group a purposeful contribution? It prioritizes Medic for helping teammates, while explaining other reported roles and the limits of a provisional recommendation. Neither list publishes invented damage, exact kit statistics or a universal class price. Use a comparison when choosing among options; use the relevant unlock guide when access is the obstacle. A high tier cannot substitute for the right currency or a coordinated movement plan.

Tier Lists questions

Are these official developer rankings?

No. They are editorial recommendations under the stated criteria. They do not claim an official balance table or measured damage tests.

Should I always buy the highest tier first?

No. Consider access, the currency you have and the role your next run needs. An available starter or community reward can be a better immediate step than an unaffordable target.

Weapon tiers explain a progression goal; class tiers compare cooperative role fit. Their detailed reasons matter more than matching a letter alone.
