Short version: The Baseball Bat is the best weapon we've seen: Damage 26 and Reach 8.0, the highest on both. Next is the Hammer (23 / 5.0), then the Frying Pan (22 / 6.0), the Kitchen Knife (18 / 4.5) and the Rolling Pin (16 / 5.5). The Adjustable Wrench shows Damage 16. These tiers are ours and use only the card numbers; the game doesn't show swing speed.

30 Floors Up weapon tier list

Weapon (tier)Damage / Reach and where we saw it
Baseball Bat (S)Damage 26, Reach 8.0, tagged Weapon. Held on Day 8 in BlaxieBACON's run and from Day 2 on in a long ESPRITGAME run, where it stayed in the hotbar to Day 38.
Hammer (A)Damage 23, Reach 5.0, tagged Weapon. Seen on Day 12 and Day 13 in RyanThaGamer's run, where the objective also asks for a hammer.
Frying Pan (A)Damage 22, Reach 6.0. Longer reach than the Hammer for 1 less damage.
Kitchen Knife (B)Damage 18, Reach 4.5. Picked up around Day 4 to 5 in two runs.
Rolling Pin (C)Damage 16, Reach 5.5.
Adjustable Wrench (C)Damage 16; we couldn't read its reach. It's needed for objectives, so you may carry one anyway.

Why the Baseball Bat is on top

It has the most damage (26) and the longest reach (8.0) of every weapon card we've read, so there's no trade-off to weigh. The game pass descriptions also call a baseball bat the free starting weapon, and Lucille and Deadweight are described as hitting like it. We've only seen it picked up in the apartments, not given at the start.

Hammer or Frying Pan?

The Hammer hits harder (23 against 22), the Frying Pan reaches farther (6.0 against 5.0). We put both in A tier. The Hammer is also a tool for the objectives: the Day 12 east fire door and the Stair B barrier both ask for one, so you'll carry it anyway.

What this list doesn't know

The item card shows Damage and Reach only. We don't know swing speed, durability or noise per weapon, and we haven't seen the stat cards for the pass weapons. A quiet weapon may be worth more than a strong one in a game about staying quiet, so treat the tiers as a damage ranking, not a promise.
