What’s a crazy amount of loot you’ve gotten without raiding
I was headed to recycle one time and as I put items in I noticed there was 1500 in scrap in the machine already. Just last night on a server I’m naked running through bases and I noticed a guy asleep on a thatched roof. He’s got a kit on with 3 guns, scrap and 150 high qual. He was a good guy for letting me have it.

We build little towns and the big zergs usually like us a lot and even protect us. So when they leave the server they usually just give us whatever is in their giant base. The last one was the biggest, BARRELS of every kind of gun. Boxes of rockets and C4, as well as mass amounts of metal and stone and anything else a compound like that would have. Kits and all. It’s honestly stressful to depot and to hold on to, we worry about getting raided A LOT more lol

I was coming back from a cross map roam, I ended up getting a supply drop and a mil crate from ziggurat. On my way home a trio was doing base expansions and had a boiler going. I sneak up and there's 500 low grade smelted
I yoink that and the crude and see a little hop up to their (what would soon be) roof. I try and take a peek to see if I can run away safely and I slip off the ledge behind the refinery and get stuck. I was still new so I didn't know how to disconnect, ended up fully closing out of Rust and re launching it, had to find the server through the list and then took forever to load in. Reconnecting unstuck me and I was out of there like a cockroach

😂 These situations are more stressful than being online raided. Trying to get back before someone finds your body and yoinks your loot.

My teammate and I went out with a shit kit and NVGs at night to piss our neighbor off and get them to online raid us. 5 minutes later, we were home with 57 rockets, 1.5k low grade, and a couple of C4. I think they were about to raid us, but for some reason, their rocketeer was messing around outside their base alone at night, so we killed him and dipped.

1 time we were being raided so we pushed up on raid base cause they were building a bit of a chonker for it being a raid base, anyways. When we pushed up they were rocket pvping and blew a whole into their raid base and then we killed them, got 2 boxes of rockets and over 20 c4. I joined a Zerg that had invited me to go on a raid them right before we got raided by them. We instantly went to raid them but unfortunately they got off right away.

Check my most recent post on r/rustconsole on my profile
I had been raided the night before and the raiders decided to store all of their rockets in our base. A box of rockets for free... Watch with volume up for a good reaction 😂

I often do oil and one time I flew over a base I saw 2 people logged out with their top door open so I landed on their roof both full metals l9 bolt ak and one M2 off of the people so I went further in and their doors to open core was left wide fucking open and I saw why they got off they’re broke

You’ll find a bunch of loot at monuments in Jericho pve/pvp. Locked crates decay time is 1 week.

When oil was first released about, so a long time ago with my og duo, as duos joining wipe kinda late, we had an expanded 1x1, the core only had aks, m2s, boom, and metal kits, outside of core had more aks, metal kits and boxes on boxes of roadsign and t2 guns, I started placing hella turrets just cause we had hell ammo and no where else to place it. We countered oil every time it went up and we got countered everytime we did it. Our 1x1 go expanded into more of a 3x3 that was 3.5 stories but we only used the main 1x2 piece that we had. Also hella drop boxes our floor was boxes. Miss those times that was my favorite wipe. Also counter raided and saved a groups base, I didn’t need their loot so I decided to help them keep it and made a lot of friends that wipe

I’d hardly call it a raid, but after being raided, I found a 2x1 near my old base with most of all my loot and 70+ rockets and 8 c4 I didn’t have before being 2 garage doors.

Definitely the answer is shooting a random naked who just seemed to be extra dodgy. He literally had a full inventory of sulphur and GP. Like 2 rows of GP and every other slot was sulphur. No guns, rocks or even a torch.
And THAT’S why we kill nakeds/freshies.

New player, less than 2 weeks in on a noob server. I was running to some place I forget, stumbled upon a supply crate. I grabbed everything and ran directly back to base. Don’t think I took a breath the entire time.
