Dead Rails Class Tier List (2025): Best Classes Ranked

Need a hand picking the best class in Dead Rails? No problem. Picking the right one can make or break your run, especially with so many options now available—including meme picks like Horse. But even if you’re a solo survivor or rolling with a squad, knowing which class fits your style is paramount.

This Dead Rails class tier list breaks them all down based on power, utility, and fun factor. I’ve ranked each class from best to worst, saving you the headache of filtering through the trash.

What Is The Best Class In Dead Rails? | Roblox

The best class in Dead Rails is Werewolf. It has overpowered nighttime stats: double speed, damage, and health. As a result, it dominates survival runs after dark, turning you into a near-unstoppable force. The only trade-off is a slight stat reduction during the day, but it’s a small price to pay.

If that's not your style, Highroller is a decent alternative, boosting your earnings by 50%. This is a game-changer for team efficiency and purchasing gear. It’s also low-risk if you simply avoid storms. Vampire also stands out with its unique healing knife and fast, agile combat, though sunlight limits your movement.

If you don't like either of those, then Survivalist might be best for you in Dead Rails. It rewards aggressive low-health play with extra damage, making it a favorite for risk-takers. Overall, these classes offer powerful, specialized playstyles. I highly suggest running Werewolf for its raw stat boost at night.

Dead Rails Class Tier List: Every Class Ranked | Roblox

As of April 2025, there are 17 classes in Dead Rails. These are not assigned randomly—you'll instead need to actively choose them at the Tailor NPC. Each costs a specific amount of Bonds, which you can earn by exploring the map, completing the run, or buying outright with Robux.

Once you've purchased a class, it's permanently unlocked and can be equipped for any run without buying it again. Make sure you select your class at the Tailor before starting a new run—you cannot change it mid-run. Here are the best classes in Dead Rails on Roblox.
