The main thing that monuments have to offer though is a Recycler. Some of them might also be irradiated, so if you are not sufficiently clothed and you hear the ticking of a Geiger-Counter, turn around, or you will die from radiation. They provide you with a lot of loot but also with potentially unwanted attention since Monuments are natural hotspots in Rust. Examples would be the Power Plant, Launch site or Oxum’s gas station.

Monuments: Those are relics of past glory on the island.

You will need a boat and low grade fuel for that. Ocean: Same as with roads, you can farm barrels and crates on the ocean. It will also attract other people though, so my advice would be to build at a spot that is close to the road but not visible from there. That will be very helpful when you are trying to find new stuff and progress in the game. Roads: Settling next to a road enables you to farm barrels and loot crates on the street. To stay alive during that time you will either need to stand next to a fire or wear a lot of clothes. But there are some other things you should have in mind as well:Ĭlimate: If you are planning to build in the snow biome, have in mind that it is quite cold there during the day and frickin’ freezing during the night.

You will also need stone, so don’t forget about that either. If there are no trees, go somewhere else, because you will need a lot of wood. Now that you have your basic equipment, it’s time to settle down.įor your first base, you are looking for an area with a lot of resources, mainly wood.
