Doom The Dark Ages has a fair amount of weapons to yield, but not all of them are built equal.
Players will keep unlocking new guns as they clear the main chapters. Every gun in the game fits into specific archetypes, and they have their use-case scenarios. However, some of the weapons are simply better in terms of their damage potential, nature of ammo, and more. This tier list will help you to separate the wolves from the sheep and prioritize using the best weapons.
Doom The Dark Ages weapons tier list
There are over 10 weapons to unlock, and the process is pretty easy. Once you have enough weapons at your disposal, you'll have to choose the best ones possible. I have used four different tiers for classifying the weapons.
While damage is an important factor of consideration for the tier list, I have also considered how easy/difficult it is to use a particular weapon. Some weapons have made it to high tiers because you'll almost never run out of their ammo, and they're more versatile to use.
Doom The Dark Ages S-tier weapons
![]()
Doom The Dark Ages A-tier weapons
![]()
Doom The Dark Ages B-tier weapons
![]()
Doom The Dark Ages C-tier weapons
I have excluded items like the Saw and Power Gauntlets. You'll find that they're classified as weapons in the game, but I consider them as your defense. The Saw in particular can also classify as an S-tier weapon once you get a few upgrades in.

Genshin Impact has finally revealed Skirk as a playable character in the latest drip marketing. She will be released in the upcoming version 5.7 update, which will go live in June.
Additionally, we have several leaks from the beta showing Skirk's rarity, weapon type, and playstyle.
Skirk will release in Genshin Impact 5.7
Genshin Impact developers have finally confirmed that Skirk will be released as a playable character in version 5.7. She is a new Cryo character, which shouldn't come as a surprise if you've been following the latest leaks. Skirk also had a slight model update, which some may or may not like because most of the black clothing around her upper chest was removed.
The drip marketing post also features a small exchange between Vedrfolnir "The Visionary" and Surtalogi "The Foul." The former states:
To which Surtalogi replies:
This conversation seems to have happened before Surtalogi accepted Skirk as their student. "The Visionary" mentions that despite being free, Surtalogi's destiny is still bound to their world, and he will send his disciple here in the future. Interestingly, "The Foul" looks surprised about taking in a disciple but also considers this a misfortune for the student.
Hopefully, we will learn more about Skirk and her master in the upcoming update.
Here are some extra details about Skirk in her official introduction post:
Skirk rarity, weapon type, and playstyle
The latest beta leaks suggest that Skirk will be a 5-star unit, and her weapon type is a Sword. Moreover, she can be seen holding a sword in her character card, so it seems like the most obvious option.. Furthermore, Skirk is hinted to be a main DPS unit that relies on her enhanced Normal Attacks and Elemental Burst to deal damage.
Check out Skirk's ascension and skill materials guide while you wait for her banner release.

Doom The Dark Ages is now available worldwide, and the first task for players will be to start clearing the story chapters.
The main game is divided into different chapters, and players will progress gradually. While the mission structure is pretty linear, players can choose how to proceed. Almost all missions, barring a few, have extra content like Secrets and Toys that players can find if they invest extra hours into them. This guide will provide you with all the necessary information required to complete the campaign.
Disclaimer: The list is still in work in terms of Secrets. Once we have the full list, it will be updated to include the new information.
How many chapters are there in Doom The Dark Ages?
The latest Doom title has a total of 22 chapters. You'll be unlocking the chapters gradually (all chapters stay locked by default). Once you finish a chapter, the next one will become available. Doom The Dark Ages is marked improvement in terms of content as Doom Eternal has just 13 missions.
Let's take a look at all the chapters that are part of the main campaign.

Complete Doom The Dark Ages quest list
Here's the complete list of the quests you'll have to complete, arranged in their order of appearance.
According to Bethesda id, each mission should take about an hour to complete. However, the actual duration of them in most cases is definitely less, but it will also depend on the difficulty you choose. Playing the missions at higher difficulty will make things harder, and you'll require longer to eliminate the enemies.
![]()
You can also find Secrets in almost every mission (with a few exceptions), so make sure to explore all corners of the map. Ideally, you'll want to finish a chapter first, and then concentrate on exploring the map to unearth the Secrets. This is also necessary if you want to 100% every chapter, as merely completing it on your playthrough will only partially complete it.

One of the most important aspects of Doom The Dark Ages is the upgrade part, which is key to improving your character.
As you clear more chapters, you'll unlock new weapons and additional tools for your shield. They'll make you more powerful, but you'll need to upgrade them, too. Doing so will unlock new effects, some of which are crucial for particular enemies.
This guide will help you understand the upgrade system and how to prioritize things.
How to upgrade in Doom The Dark Ages
The upgrade system of Doom The Dark Ages is fairly straightforward, but you'll need to plan carefully. You can't upgrade your weapons whenever you want. The resources required for upgrading are also finite, so you'll have to use them carefully.
To start the upgrade process, you'll have to reach something called Sentinel Shrines. These shrines are highlighted in bright green, so it's very easy to spot them. Whenever you're near a Shrine, the game will alert you to its presence.
The Sentinel Shrine allows you to upgrade your weapons, shield, and melee. You'll need Gold for upgrades, which you can find lying around the map as you explore. Certain enemies also reward you with Gold when you eliminate them.
![]()
Based on the early hours, Gold is quite limited, so you'll have to prioritize which upgrades to do first. Open the relevant section from a Sentinel Shrine, press the Space Bar, and confirm the purchase of an upgrade. Since upgrades are irreversible, make sure to read the text carefully to ensure that you don't end up wasting your resources.
Should you upgrade your weapons, shield, or melee first?
Based on the first few chapters, this is my priority list for upgrades.
As you clear the early chapters, you'll unlock more weapons. You won't want to invest in any weapon upgrades until you have a fair idea of which is your favorite. Identify the ones that suit your play style before going in for the upgrades.
![]()
The Shield is absolutely incredible in both offense and defense, and spending heavily on them. One of my earliest upgrades allows my Saw Throws to chop through multiple shielded enemies at once. This is a perfect upgrade since shielded enemies take longer to take down. Unlike weapons, you'll be using the same shield throughout the game, and hence, any upgrades will be permanent.
The last logic also applies to your melee weapons, and they're also a safe bet for upgrades. You'll be using these weapons heavily, and getting a few early upgrades won't be a bad investment.

Demonic Essence is one of the most important resources in Doom The Dark Ages, and obtaining it is crucial if you want to improve the Doom guy and take on the monsters constantly.
Unlike typical resources, Demonic Essence can only be obtained from a specific type of enemy. This resource also has a unique purpose, as it allows you to increase your maximum health and armor. This guide will help you find more Demonic Essence.
How to obtain Demonic Essence in Doom The Dark Ages
Demonic Essence comes from a special form of enemies known as Leaders. These enemies will appear as their common variants, but they're far stronger. Leaders also have unique attacks, and some of them can be pretty deadly if you don't know how to dodge or parry.
Typically, you'll come across at most one Leader in every quest, and they often tend to be the final boss battle in some cases. They're almost always surrounded by weaker enemies, which adds to the challenge. Leaders can also be of different types, so you'll have to focus on their respective weaknesses.
![]()
Defeating a Leader takes longer, so you should take care of the weaker enemies before you concentrate all your firepower on the Leader. They have a special animation once you defeat them, as the Doom guy will rip their heart out and put them out of their misery.
This heart, obtained from a Leader, is Demonic Essence. You'll get a permanent upgrade that is applicable to your maximum Health, Shield, or Ammo. Unlike Sentinel Shrine upgrades, you can't choose which area to upgrade first. This will be pre-determined, but the upgrades are a must-have to prepare for the mid and late game.
Any upgrade from Demonic Essence will be applicable as soon as you obtain it. The upgrades are also permanent, which is a nice thing to have. The upgrades will be minimal at first, but they all build up in the long run. Once you find a Leader, make sure to eliminate it to secure as much Demonic Essence as possible.
