Weapon Tier List for MHF2
...from a gamespot thread which I can't find anymore
End Game (HR6, post-Fatalis/Shen/Akantor):
Top: Hammers, Great Swords, Lances
Mid-High: Hunting Horns, Dual Swords, Gunlances
Mid: Heavy Bowguns
Mid-Low: Long Swords and Light Bowguns
Bottom: Sword and Shield and Bows
Late Game (HR4-6):
Top: Hammers, Great Swords, Lances
Mid-High: Hunting Horns, Gunlances
Mid: Dual Swords, Heavy Bowguns
Mid-Low: Long Swords, and Bows
Bottom: Light Bowguns and Sword and Shield
Mid Game (4* Elder+/HR2/HR3):
Top: Hammers and Great Swords
Mid-High: Hunting Horns, Gunlances, and Heavy Bowguns
Mid: Long Swords, Lances, and Sword and Shield
Mid-Low: Light Bowguns and Dual Swords
Bottom: Bows
Early Game (1*-3* Elder or HR1):
Top: Hammers
Mid-High: Hunting Horns, Great Swords and Gunlances
Mid: Long Swords, Lances, and Sword and Shield
Mid-Low: Heavy Bowguns, Light Bowguns, and Bows
Bottom: Dual Swords
Edit: If you're going to use lances or gunlances, then for the love of cute girls with glasses, use an armor with the guard +1 or +2 ability. Great swords are awesome, but they take a lot of timing, practice, dedication, patience and love -- which is just like having a girlfriend.
Hammers are top tier through and through. It's like using Steve in Tekken 5.0
