Yes. Higher weapon tiers add perks and enhanced mods, and Tier 5 adds special traits, so the tier you pick changes what the weapon can do.
With a roll with 1 chosen perk the pro player aims for one perk you name, such as Pugilist; with a God Roll with 2 chosen perks you name two that must sit on the same weapon, such as Pugilist and Swashbuckler.
