Elephant Rifle Dead Rails guide

This long-barreled firearm possesses higher damage than the standard Rifle, making it a reliable choice for all situations.

How to get the Elephant Rifle in Dead Rails

Similar to the Bolt Action Rifle in Dead Rails, the Elephant Rifle is a rare loot. You can find the weapon in Towns, Outlaw Camps, and the Outlaw's Town that arrives at the end of the game. Additionally, there is a small chance of it appearing in the destroyed Sheriff's Offices, so make sure to check every nook and corner of the buildings.

Since the Elephant Rifle cannot be purchased from the Gunsmith, finding it in the wild requires you to be prepared for long fights. You'll need to put down several zombies and outlaws to access abandoned towns and camps. The best way to prepare for such fights is to equip a Class that gives boosted weapon damage, and stock up on Snake Oil, ammunition, and Bandages.

Once you find the Elephant Rifle in this Roblox experience, use the Sack to collect it. You can then equip the weapon to use it on enemies.

Stats of the Elephant Rifle

The Elephant Rifle deals base damage of 90 with every hit. Its headshot damage is estimated to be around the 145-150 mark, making it extremely useful for crowd control. Players can one-shot zombies and most other enemies before retreating to reload the weapon.

However, the reload time of the Elephant Rifle is its major flaw in Dead Rails. It takes 1.5 seconds per bullet, which is considerably higher compared to the Bolt Action Rifle and the standard Rifle. Moreover, the Elephant Rifle holds only two shots, so it cannot consistently deal damage compared to its rifle counterparts.

Due to the rifle's reload and ammo capacity, it is recommended to keep a sidearm for close-quarters combat. A gun like the Blunderbuss will help you survive should you ever find yourself swarmed by enemies and with an empty Elephant Rifle magazine.

Effectiveness of the Elephant Rifle

The Elephant Rifle is best used against enemies with high health and slow speed, such as the Goliath boss in Dead Rails. The reason is that it has a higher critical damage than other rifles in the game, albeit with low ammo capacity and reload time. You'll need a few seconds to load the weapon before taking down enemies with its powerful, accurate shots.

Interestingly, the Elephant Rifle's shots can pierce multiple enemies. Its effectiveness at crowd control depends on the player's ability to group enemies before shooting them. There is always the danger of running out of ammo during intense battles with monster hordes.
