Going without any starting items into your next run can be really tiresome inDead Rails. Buying items that last you only for one life is arguably as bad. However, there is a way to start each journey loaded up, and that is by getting and equipping classes. So, without further ado, find out which classes are the best by following ourultimateDead Railsclass guide and tier list.
