The rankings go by weapon type: axes, swords and spears count as warrior types, bows, crossbows and daggers as rogue, staves as mage, and maces and two-handed maces (impacts) as priest, the same split as the weapon drop guides. Only weapons whose tooltip names a type made the tables. The site has 248 of those, and 59 of them hit 100 AP or more. All values come from the mob and exchange pages on BianKO's own site.

Worm is level 70 with 4,000,000 HP; its main drop is a Gold Bar and these five weapons sit in the group drop. No other mob page or exchange list has a Hepas weapon. The next step is +8: Blessed Upgrade Scroll takes +7 to +8 at 2%, or 4% with Trina, for 2,000,000 coins. The upgrade page also notes that +8 High Class upgrades were closed for the first 2 weeks.

Iron Crossbow's tooltip lists its type as Bow (the +3 has 92 AP). Ruler of the Legend - White Tiger(+1) has 62 AP, DEX 180 and 1.50 range, but no type line, so it's left out.

Mage: staves

Highest Attack Power among staves (each staff at its highest plus)

Ruler of the Legend - Pegasus (Ice)(+1) 104 Glacier 10, Defense 2 Level 80, INT 160, MP 110 Yellow Sand (9011)

Staff of ‹selfname›(+1) 85 Fire, Glacier, Lightning 8 Level 70, INT 100, MP 150 Random Item Exchange Gem 0.523%

Pegasus (Fire) and (Lightning) trail Ice on AP but carry 30 elemental damage against Ice's 10. Pegasus (Ice) also needs more INT (160 vs 112). Apart from the Ruler staves, the best staff that drops from mobs is Elixir Staff(+1) at 85 AP (INT 158, MP 104), and Elixir Staff(+4) with 97 AP is in the Ornament list.

Iron Impact(+1) from regular mob drops has 130 AP for STR 176. The priest-named weapons that ask for INT on top of STR have no type line in their tooltips, so they're listed here instead: Smite Hammer 92 (STR 85, INT 120), Priest Impact(+5) 90 (STR 117, INT 184), Dragon tooth hammer 86, Holy Animor 75 and Priest Impact(+1) 74.

FAQ

Where do Hepas Exceptional weapons drop?
Only from Worm's (700) group drop. The +1 Exceptional versions (Raptor, Iron Impact, Iron Bow, Shard, Deep Scar) are in the group drop of Balrog (8846) and Booro (8847).
Are Ruler of the Legend weapons better than Hepas?
Not for warriors: Blue Dragon(+1) has 149 AP against Hepas Exceptional Raptor(+7) at 182. Phoenix(+1) and Pegasus (Ice)(+1) are the top crossbow and staff. Ruler weapons need level 80 and drop from Yellow Sand (9011).
Are maces and two-handed maces priest weapons?
BianKO's site never says which class a weapon belongs to; the tooltip only gives the type. The class split here follows Knight Online's weapon types.
Do +5 weapons drop from mobs?
None of the +5s in these tables appear on a mob page; they all come from exchange boxes. At level 70 and above the highest plus from a mob is Worm's +7 and most others are +1; low-level mobs drop starter weapons up to +8.
