In Dead Rails on Roblox, how fast you can move is crucial, especially when trying to escape from zombies, vampires, or other foes. A fantastic way to boost your speed in these tense situations is to locate a horse. Riding one can help you reach your destinations much quicker when you’re off the train.
Before you can hop on a horse, you need to find one, but you’ll also require a saddle to actually use it. Below, we’ll go over everything you need to know about horses and how to utilize them in Dead Rails.
How to Tame a Horse
Generally, there are several ways to acquire a horse in Dead Rails. Some methods are straightforward but require in-game currency, while others are free yet involve more danger.
To control a horse, a saddle is also necessary, which can be challenging to obtain. Let’s dive into the details of each method.
Finding a Wild Horse
One of the safest ways to find and tame a horse is to look for it in the desert. Often, you can spot these animals in herds.
However, getting close and saddling a horse can be tricky because they tend to run away. A good strategy is to corner the horse so it can’t escape. You might be able to guide it into a building or even up against your train. Just make sure to move in a way that keeps it from bolting in the opposite direction.
Once you get close, pull out the saddle and interact with the horse to put it on. Now you’re ready to ride.
This method makes it much easier to move between locations and escape from threats more efficiently.
Additionally, you can ride a unicorn to bring it to the Sheriff’s office for a higher payout. A living unicorn nets you $250, compared to just $150 for a dead one.
Finding a Horse on the Farm
You can also locate a horse in barns on farms, which can sometimes be found in the desert. These farms are easy to spot, thanks to the tall wheat fields and red barns nearby. Once you find one, eliminate any enemies first, then check the barn. While there’s no guarantee of finding a horse, it’s a common occurrence, and you might even come across one already saddled.
Stealing from Bandits
The riskiest method to acquire a horse is to steal one from bandits. This approach requires you to confront the entire gang to get what you want. Bandits, much like horses, are relatively easy to find in the desert, so just keep an eye out for their camps. Be cautious, as they might even ambush you.
When fighting bandits while mounted, be careful to avoid killing the horse. If you defeat an enemy on a horse, you can then approach and ride it, as it will already be saddled.
How to Get a Saddle
There are two main ways to get a saddle. As previously mentioned, one option is to find it in a barn on a farm; this is the most cost-effective method. The other way is to purchase a saddle for $50 at the General Store. However, finding this item isn’t guaranteed, so you may have to check multiple stores before acquiring it.
Remember, you won’t find the saddle for sale at the first outpost you visit.
