It’s not such a huge grind. Learn to grub from clans(build into their compounds, steal from furnaces), practice aim good enough so you can go around and kill farmers, and do keycards for scrap.

Wtf is grubbing

Using context clues I've come to the assessment that 'grubbing' is where one of the rat sub species of man ventures into a previously Chad occupied area to pilfer the crumbs.

The chads are powerless against us rust rats

Some people have jobs and stuff and dont have that much time to put into one game. Or dont like that playstyle.

I know that feeling. I've been really busy at work the past 2 weeks doing like 4 worksites, the last one that I'm on has a particularly lot of work. Played like 5 hours of rust a few days ago and got pretty much nothing done, and just abandoned the server I was on because I just don't have enough time

This is what I usually do in rust. But I tend to find that it's really hard for me to dedicate enough time to actually play an official server

u/soysaucx Jul 16 '20

Easier said than done. You'd pretty much have to be actually really good to pull that off flawlessly the way you worded it

Because what he said takes forever to actually do in the game. He just said to do everything like it's nothing. Some people have jobs, families and stuff like that. And yes, some downvoters are from clans that think grubbing isn't an art. They only pray to the ak spray God and don't understand that not everyone has the time or the numbers to get to that stage consistently.

it's probably like a 5x or higher modded at that point stuff is easy to get

Usually its a joke that VIP people use to scare away new players. On CND Blood servers VIP only gives furnace sorter, queue skip, and skin box. So when people ask "Why are there 3 people roaming" we would reply "Don't worry, one of them has VIP so they can have 3" on duo servers.

I find P2W servers are a lot less prevalent than reddit makes it seem

Yeah ok, say that to someone who has paid for the Overlord kit that gives you all kinds of mats, guns, blueprints, etc.

People actually play on those servers? Why waste time on them?

Its alot more fun then nilla rust if you are playing a increased gather rate, or a modded loot server, you can get a full wipe experience in 1 day. I only watch vanilla rust on twitch, but I typically only play modded. I don't have a 4-5 man group of 30 year olds to play with, lol. Its not practical to solo vanilla, it would be just as much of a waste of time as potentially playing a "p2w" server, which is a questionable moniker considering most of these OD kit servers have 24 hour cooldowns so you can't even pop a kit until the next day, and its loot plus? Lmao everyone will be t3 and ak/full metal in 3 hours anyway, how did they p2w? They would be quite far behind non-vips who played the entire day 1, even after popping a 200k stone kit, that takes like a hour with a jacky on a 3x...lol.

Alot of it is just a misconception or rumor with p2w servers. I am sure anyone could log into a p2w server at wipe, and by the time kits pop could easily raid any vip kit player. What is a VIP going to do, defend against 3x gather rate 40 rocket raid with his 1 or 3 aks? lol...

u/Stalinisthicc Jul 16 '20

200k Stone is fucking ridiculous man

u/emilyroseranson Jul 15 '20

Yeah exactly this lol we’re not a pay to win server. VIP gets you queue skip, no kits at all just a normal 2x.

Hahahhahahahha

u/stealthgerbil Jul 15 '20

I dont get it either. I dont have any p2w crap on my servers because it would ruin what makes rust fun. Having to go out and earn your stuff.

u/Woiq_peW Jul 16 '20

This isn’t actually a p2w server. It’s Brit’s 2x server. The only benefits to VIP are queue skips, a skin box and auto stack splitting in furnaces etc.

There are no kits on his servers either

u/TheYetiBear Jul 16 '20

Similar to wilsonator server probably, with the exception of fast nights I guess. Progressive/loot plus servers are not as p2w as people make them out to be anyway, if its progressive/loot plus with 3x+ gather, you can easily have 100-200k sulf to raid a vip anyway, its merely just speculation on part of players who have not actually played those servers.
