Determining the best Class for solo play in Dead Rails

Although the game provides several options, the Werewolf Class is a standout for solo play in Roblox Dead Rails. It provides several boosts to the user, albeit during a particular time, but its advantages far outweigh the disadvantages. You can purchase it with 50 Bonds.

With the Werewolf Class, you get double speed, damage, and health every night. The damage boost applies to both your ranged and melee weapons. As a result, you can mow down zombies and monsters to raid villages easily. It is advised to use a Miner Helmet to get light while fighting enemies at night.

The only downside to using Werewolf is that your speed, health, and damage multipliers drop to x0.9 during the day. However, you can counteract the debuffs by avoiding fights, stocking up on healing items, and purchasing better weapons. It shouldn't stop you from completing your objective.

Compared to its arch-rival, the Vampire, players using the Werewolf Class get no damage-over-time during the day. It is also more convenient than the Survivalist Class because the user doesn't have to drop their health to get boosts.
