Raider

Sulfur, boom, and the clock

You end other people's wipes and risk yours. Store sulfur everywhere except 'the TC room only.' Online raids happen when you sleep in real life too.

Need: More sulfur than they have walls — and a plan for onlineFail: All boom in one box, raid at 4am your time, log off

Kit: Rockets/C4 you can actually spend · A raid base or a ladder plan · Spread loot so one counter-raid is not wipe

Rust raid with explosives

Strengths

  • The win condition of vanilla
  • Teaches weak sides, doors, and utility
  • A finished raid with extract beats a 40-rocket fail on honeycomb

Weaknesses

  • Bow-raiding a clan because you are bored
  • Playing until 4am then logging off with deployables on the roof

Starter tips

  1. 1

    Spread loot; expect to get raided. Storing all sulfur in the TC room is the classic.

  2. 2

    Count the boom. Honeycomb exists so you go home empty.

  3. 3

    Offline raids are the game. So are people who play your timezone. Pick.

  4. 4

    Do not raid if you cannot upkeep your own stone. You are about to be next.
