Anyone who says this guy is balanced has no clue about balancing, he is borderline unusable until like level 100 until you can max out strength and get some regen and health and even then he is only like low tier. I'm not sure what they were trying to do with his kit but he just feels terrible to play, he should be an aggressive rushdown melee kaiju like he was in KU but instead his melee dmg and health are so bad he gets outclassed by half the cast so he is forced to constantly retreat and spam the missiles which will just miss half the time or not even register the damage because the tracking sucks, also he just gets wrecked by any flyer, he doesn't even stand a chance. Don't even get me started on the beam which has got to be one of the worst in the entire game. Low dmg, long windup, long cd and you have to be completely stationary while using it. For an endgame kaiju, this guy is an absolute joke and is even worse than he was pre remodel, I'm not sure why they didn't just make him like how he was in KU which would make everyone happy since he was one of the most popular kaiju in KU from what I remember.
Both my fav trucks made it to this list Padera and Atom. But it is really appreciated that many base game trucks are still goated. In reagard of the very very best ones like Mastadon and Avenhorn…yes undisputedly capable but just make the game boring so hardly ever used…would prob put them (and Tatarin) in sublist called OP, avoid unless stuck.
If you don’t mind me asking, what trailer mod do you use for most of your videos? The green one with small posts sticking up I believe.
The Mastodon is indeed one of the best truck I've driven so far. It also got the saddle low addon, which make it more versatile than any other heavy trucks. It's because it is so good that I actively avoid using it frequently because I actually want to give other trucks a chance to prove themselves. However, only when I get my ass to Yukon, I made The Mastodon as the one and only truck for logs hauling because holy shit the the terrain over there is horrible.
Tatra 813 also goated truck. Sadly too low to use high saddle trailers. But for recovery or with flatbed equipped it’s very good
Zetros with Crawler suspension is my go to. Never let me down. But Kenworth 963 is a shit truck. No power and can’t even climb a small hill
can you also do a non dlc version?
Snowrunner is busted to me. Completed all OG regions and 3 DLC ones and called it a day, hadn't even started the 4th. Basically a game of "take the biggest truck or two you have and a scout with fuel". Winch is OP, game without a winch is miserable because a random Peppa Pig rated puddle thinks it's a main villain and so it just stops a truck so big it should be able to just slurp that puddle up. Low+, Low-, whatever, it'll go as fast as UPS delivery when I urgently need to get a gift for someone's cake day.
Random trucks get random buffs over others for no reason, like random built in utility, no logic behind when truck has or doesn't have an axle collision, random setup logic covered in older videos.
There's no need for variety in the game unless you make up the difficulty yourself via custom rules or difficulty modifiers, there is no advantages of different classes (I mean stuff unique to certain class that is not present in the other, like autonomous winch in scouts for example that no other class has), there are almost no locations where you'll benefit from choosing one specific class/truck size of truck (say hello to highway trucks that are here only to be laughed at)
Special mention: lists the majority of trucks in the game lol. That's pretty funny, no offence.
honestly, i agree with your list for the most part. the mastodon is so good that i actively avoid using it. the only thing i would change is putting the f750 as honorable mention or in place of the earth roamer.
605r not bought but is earned❤🎉
I can't stop using mack pinnacle on every map, kinda sad it's not even mentioned
3:53 what is that map? 😀
Hey SD1one can you make the list off the worse truck in snowrunner 2026
Kenwort 963 is useless trash with weak engine. Only way to use this piece of junk is to sell it and buy something really useful
dont forget about the 963 Fuel penalty Nerf >,< for the Downside now "its still in the game"
The rest of the list I agree with but the Zetros feels so out of place on this list imo, it chugs way too much fuel under load, even with the roof rack it's runtime is not that great and it can't really handle the worst types of terrain and will get stuck (at least with the stock tires I'm running). The truck is definitely stable and powerful but I would probably say the FLD 120, C500 or Pinnacle deserve that spot more since they can basically do the same things but are way more fuel efficient.
One truck I like using when I only need to deliver one or two slot cargo is the Western Star 47X (the one without the two drop axels). It’s fairly quick with the off road transmission and can get through most obstacles without diff lock.
Great video! The Derry Savior is fast becoming the star of my fleet in the Swiss Alps. Thanks for the mod recs for those sideboard beds. I'd love to see a video covering the best paid mods, as I'd like to get into some of them, but don't know what's worthy of paying for.
Whats the best tire for the Mercedes-Bens Zetros? I usually use the TMHS I, but Im not sure if its the best option
2 scouts feel a bit too much for top 10 list, but other than that wouldn't argue.
Look at the Tatarin and Mastodon still holding it down. The vanilla and the franchise staple, not going anywhere.
I'd have the Mack Defense on there, it's basically the Savior's only true contender at this point.
How did the new P12 not get into the honorable mentions list?
I would say it can outperform the 6900XD in most circumstances.
Reminder that nowdays Avenhorn its a bit nerfed, it used to be stronger!!(Saber removed sum horses from the engine)
Happy to see Atom here
He's just awesome – he's powerful, somehow EXCEPTIONALLY stable for Cabover of that height, he's very fuel efficient, has a lots of addons and combos, and overall most Biased Azov in game
Honestly, I would recommend buy him instead of Mastodon – yes, he's a bit worse than Mastodon, but that's the point – by using him you'll still gonna learn about how to plan routes, how to use gears and also you'll need to complete Amur to get his top engine, and during that playtime you'll definitely learn a lot, both by yourself and by your mistakes
Goated Truck
Somebody help me please. Which track sounds on 3:38–4:20?
ZikZ 605R; the best truck in Snowrunner.
