终极死铁路初学者指南

The Wild West is a tough place to survive in, and it's even worse when there are supernatural creatures chasing you. Follow our Dead Rails beginner guide to prepare yourself for your first run and win, both in a team and solo.

How to get Fuel

Your goal is to keep moving in Dead Rails, but the question is how? The first and easiest way to power your train is to buy coal at the safe towns at the General Shop every 10k meters you cross. When starting off a run, make sure to use all the money you have to purchase coal.

However, when you are in a pinch, you should collect the dead bodies (even deader this time) of zombies. You can store them in your bag and bring them over to the train, popping them in the furnace.

Apart from the zombies, there are other items which you'll find in buildings that you can burn for fuel. They are usually labeled with fuel and a lot of these can be found in furniture stores:

• 报纸
• 椅子
• 图书
• 绳索
• 车轮

How to Armor Your Train

The best protection for your train are Metal Sheets and Barbed Wire and you should focus these on the locomotive. However, if you don't have any yet, use any item that can be welded down . Chairs and wheels are a great way to block the path to the cab, while newspapers and wanted posters can protect the ladders in the back.

如何治愈

There are three ways you can heal in Dead Rails and two involve stopping at the Doctor's (shocking). Bandages are cheaper and can revive other players, but they won't heal you up to your max health. Snake Oil will heal you up to your max health overtime, but it's more expensive and can't revive others.

The final way to make sure you can heal right at the start is by choosing the Doctor Class .您带有两种绷带，两种蛇油，还可以通过不使用绷带牺牲一半的健康来恢复队友。

How to Farm Money

You can farm money in the first safe town before you even set off on your journey. All you have to do is remain here for several nights while the turrets take out the enemies which spawn. This way you'll get both fuel in the form of zombies and money in the form of vampires and werewolves which you can sell.

Keep in mind that the turrets on the walls have limited ammo , so you can't remain here forever. You can apply this same tactic in the next town over, however.

Apart from this, the easiest way to get more money is to loot valuables . Better items can be found in burning towns as well as in the castles , the two most dangerous locations. Once you have a gun, you should also take on the bandits which are roaming the desert. Once you kill them, make sure to pick up their bodies so that you can get a bounty for them at the Sherriff's. Definitely also grab a horse if you can, since you need any movement speed boost you can get.

How to Survive the Night

The best way to ensure you survive the night in Dead Rails is to get to one of the safe towns at every 10k meters and stay there until morning. This type of gameplay reminds me of 7 Days to Die, where many enemies spawn during the night and are running right at you. At the towns, the turrest will protect you .

但是，如果您发现自己会在夜间被困在外面，请将自己藏在机车中，并使用任何您必须阻塞货车上的物品。 If it's zombies that are attacking you, you can battle them, but vampires and werewolves are a little more tricky.

Keep in mind that enemies aren't the only danger to you, the weather is as well.在夜间，您可能会被雷击击中，因此请确保留在里面，或者用防盔甲保护（牧师）选择班级。

最好的武器

At the start, the best weapon you can have is the Revolver . With cheapest Ammo, it will definitely do you good in battles with the bandits. Once you have enough money from collecting bounties on bandits, you can buy a better weapon like the Rifle or the Turret .

The good old Shovel is also a great weapon when there aren't many enemies around, especially if they are inside the building. Zombies will glitch through the walls trying to get to you, so you can kill them by hitting their hands.

How to Get Bonds

If you've been in the lobby of Dead Rails then you've most definitely wondered how to get bonds . Since this currency can be used to purchase various equipment as well as classes at the lobby, it's important to know where you can find it.

The best way to farm bonds is to break into the bank vaults in burning towns or find them in the castle . Both of these POIs are dangerous, so you should have at least the Revolver before exploring them. Having at least one other player in your team is a big plus as well (the more of you, the more loot you can carry).

To open the bank vault , you need one of two things. You can either purchase dynamite at the General store and blow the vault open, or you can find the combination . It is on a piece of paper carried around by a zombie in a top hat. Once you kill it, grab the combination and run over to the vault to open it.

Best Classes

If you're doing a solo run, I suggest Ironclad or The Alamo .这些都是防御性的班级，除了第一个班级用盔甲保护您，而第二个则用金属板和铁丝网​​保护火车。 If you are in a team and already have others on Ironclad, then I suggest picking the Doctor .

这堂课带有两个绷带（您可以用来恢复他人），蛇油（以完全治愈自己），甚至有能力通过牺牲一半的健康来恢复队友。

How to solo

If you want to make sure you have great equipment, wait out a couple of nights at the first town. Once it's daylight again, collect the corpses that the turrets killed. You'll either be able to sell them (vampires and werewolves), or you can use them as fuel (zombies).

With the money farming strat , you should have enough to stock up on coal as well as get a weapon before you're even set wheel into the desert. If you can handle the beginning battles with a shovel, then I suggest saving your money to purchase the Rifle .

如果您自己探索，一个好主意是尽快拿起马，因为您通过往返火车浪费大部分时间。 A good class for solo is either Ironclad or The Alamo, though I suggest the first one more, since you can use various junk to protect the train.

Keep repeating the town strat while exploring the buildings. You should attempt to explore a burning town , if for nothing else than to check if there is a bank to open up and get bonds.
