There are a total of 114 weapons in Granblue Fantasy Relink. These weapons are divided into different sections and different characters. Since there are so many of them I found it hard to pick one and label it as the best. The only drawback to these is that each weapon can only be used by one crewmate. Nonetheless, I was able to pick the best weapons which I deducted based on Hitpoints, Traits, and the characters that wield them.
