Horse Class Tier List: Dead Rails Ultimate Ranking

Author：Kristen Update：May 25,2025

Are you eager to explore the vast landscapes of *Dead Sails* without the fear of an untimely demise? You're in good company. Choosing the right class can make all the difference, alongside your gear and companions. Why not skip the trial-and-error and dive straight into my **ultimate *Dead Rails* class tier list**? I've done the legwork so you can focus on the adventure ahead.

All Dead Rails Class Tier List

My *Dead Rails* class tier list might stir up some debate, but it's grounded in real gameplay experience. The **Vampire** remains a top pick, even after numerous updates, while the **Survivalist** has surged in popularity recently. It's a letdown that the Zombie class still can't utilize Snake Oil, but we'll touch on that later. Remember, while this list considers raw power and utility, team dynamics and fun with friends are equally important.

When it comes to sheer damage output, the **Survivalist** and **Vampire** stand unrivaled. While the **Ironclad** is a strong contender, these two classes lead the pack:

**Name****Cost****Info**
Survivalist75Starting with a Tomahawk, the Survivalist becomes increasingly lethal as your health drops. Even at full health, you out-damage other classes, though a nerf might be on the horizon. This class excels against tough enemies that require sustained damage.
Vampire75The Vampire is all about speed and aggression. Faster than a horse or sprinting zombie, your melee attacks are devastating. Sunlight is your weakness, so stick to the shadows. You start with a Vampire Knife that heals on hit, keeping you in the fight by maintaining pressure.

In this tier, we find classes that are excellent but not quite as dominant in solo play. Their damage and starting gear are strong, but they shine most brightly in team settings. **Ironclad** has the highest potential here:

**Name****Cost****Info**
Ironclad100Fully armored, the Ironclad is tough to kill but moves 10% slower. Not ideal for solo runs, you'll want teammates to cover you. In teams, shotguns are your best weapon, perfect for close-quarters combat.
Cowboy50Starting with a revolver, ammo, and a horse, the Cowboy excels in early-game combat and mobility. This advantage is crucial during chaotic Blood Moon nights. With the Game Pass, you can sell the revolver for a better start.
Priest75Equipped with Crucifixes and Holy Water, the Priest is immune to lightning. While not suited for solo play, their throwables are invaluable in larger teams, offering significant support.
Arsonist20With Molotovs and enhanced fire damage, the Arsonist is perfect for crowd control. Ideal in smaller areas and with a horse for hit-and-run tactics.

B Tier Dead Rails Classes

These classes are specialists, shining in specific scenarios. While not the best for damage, they offer unique utility, particularly in group settings:

**Name****Cost****Info**
The Alamo50Designed for defense, The Alamo starts with materials to fortify the Train. Perfect for holding the line and slowing down enemy waves, making it an invaluable asset under pressure.
Doctor15The Doctor is essential for team survival, equipped with healing supplies and the ability to revive teammates at half health cost. Affordable and crucial in group play, selling bandages and snake oil can give you a $40 boost.
Miner15The Miner excels at resource gathering, with a helmet for visibility and a Pickaxe that efficiently mines ore. Perfect for nighttime exploration and material collection, despite lacking in combat prowess.

C Tier Dead Rails Classes

These classes offer utility but are less effective in solo scenarios. The **Conductor** is a must-have in larger groups, while the **Horse** class adds a humorous twist:

**Name****Cost****Info**
Conductor50The Conductor boosts Train speed to 84, essential for quick escapes. Starting without a melee weapon, they need protection from teammates. No longer vulnerable to health loss, they're now more durable.
HorseUnlockable through the Horsing Around gamemodeTransform into a horse with standard stats, including speed and a large hitbox. While fun, navigating tight spaces can be challenging. You can ride players, but not the train or other horses.
High Roller50Earn 1.5x money from bags, perfect for quick cash accumulation. However, you're more susceptible to lightning strikes during storms, embodying a high-risk, high-reward strategy.

D Tier Dead Rails Classes

At the bottom of the barrel, we find classes with limited benefits. The **None** class is a good starting point for newcomers, while the **Zombie** class remains underwhelming:

**Name****Cost****Info**
NoneFreeThe None class is the default, offering no perks or drawbacks. Ideal for beginners to learn the game and experiment with different playstyles before investing in other classes.
Zombie75The Zombie heals by feeding on corpses and can move stealthily. However, without access to Bandages or Snake Oil, it remains a weak choice in the current meta.

And that's it! I hope this *Dead Rails* class tier list helps you conquer new distances and tackle those mobs with ease. Don't forget to check out our *Dead Rails* codes and learn about the game's challenges. Who knows what exciting updates await us?
