What are Challenges in Dead Rails?

Challenges in Dead Rails are essentially quests that provide one-time rewards in the form of Bonds and Challenge Stars. While some are straightforward, others can be quite challenging. The good news is, you don’t have to accept them manually—they’re always active and can be viewed on the Challenges Board, located in the main lobby next to the leaderboards. Currently, Challenge Stars serve no functional purpose other than showcasing your achievements.

The Bonds you earn from completing Challenges can be used in the main lobby to unlock new classes or purchase items for your next raid. It's generally best to prioritize unlocking classes first. Once you've expanded your available character pool, you can use any remaining Bonds to buy useful items that give you an early advantage in-game.
