Farmer

Nodes, hemp, scrap

The best first job. You print the wipe. Bow-fighting every naked is how you donate the farm to an AK.

Early: Wood, stone, cloth, metalLater: Sulfur when you can actually spend it

Kit: Tools that match the node · A bag off the farm path · Headphones — the road is PvP

Rust farming stone and metal nodes

Strengths

  • Time-to-stone is the real PvP
  • Teaches routes, sound, and when to leave a node
  • Fits a solo 2x1

Weaknesses

  • Greeding one more sulfur rock into a five-man
  • Farming with the whole kit and no bag

Starter tips

  1. 1

    Wood, stone, cloth, then metal. Sulfur is for when you can actually use it.

  2. 2

    Play on a low-pop or beginner-tagged server for the first wipe.

  3. 3

    Farm near home. Twenty-grid sightseeing is a death screen.

  4. 4

    If you hear a fight, you are the third party or you leave. Standing in the middle is loot.
