Zero grief, for real
Nobody can kill you, loot your body, get into your base or touch your vehicles. It is not a rule we ask you to follow: the server makes it impossible.
Rust server · Europe · France
Your base. Your loot. Nobody else’s.
Here, no player can hurt you, rob you, raid your base or block you: the server forbids it. The only dangers are the NPCs, and they can aim.

The idea
All of Rust, without the people who ruin it
You keep the gathering, the building, the monuments, the heli, the Bradley and everything that makes Rust. We only removed the ability to harm other players, and added plenty of NPCs so it stays dangerous.
Your loot is yours
The NPC you kill, the crate you hack, the heli or the Bradley you take down: only your group can loot them. Nobody steals your loot from under your nose anymore.
x5 gather, instant crafting
Trees, rocks, quarries and barrels give five times more, stacks are ten times bigger and crafting is instant. You spend your time playing, not waiting.
NPCs that fight back
Guarded monuments, road patrols, armored convoys, helicopter crashes, positions to hold: the NPCs move, take cover and aim well. The danger is real, but it comes from the AI.
Zero grief
What nobody will ever be able to do to you
No moderator to call, no screenshot to send: these protections are built into the server and work around the clock, whether you are online or not.
- No damage between groupsWeapons, explosives, traps, turrets, vehicles: nothing hurts a player outside your group.
- Bases nobody can break intoNobody can open, break, burn or blow up anything in your base, or put a ladder or a lock on it.
- No base right next to yoursNobody can build right next to a base that is not their own group’s.
- Your death helps nobodyYour weapon and your backpack stay on your body, and only your group can take them back.
- NPCs don’t follow you homeIn your base, no NPC can target or hurt you, unless you shoot at it from home.
- Vehicles and horses protectedNobody can drive what belongs to your group.
Events
There is always something going on
On top of the game’s own events, the server has events of its own, all built for PvE: the loot goes to the group that fought for it, and none of them damages your base.
Random
Helicopter crash
A burning Chinook crashes not far from you. Crates locked by the flames, an elite crate… and mercenaries on their way.
Monuments
Guarded crate
A hackable crate appears in a monument, guarded by scientists. The group that hacks it keeps it.
4 levels
Armored convoy
An escorted convoy drives along the main road. It doesn’t flinch… until someone attacks it.
Defense
Defense position
Hack the crate dug in behind its sandbags, then hold the position against harder and harder waves.
After the Bradley
Bradley reinforcements
The Bradley is down? Its reinforcements come running and guard the crates.
Everywhere
Ambushes
On the road, in the woods, around some crates: you never know where they will come from. Never near your base.
Several levels
PvE raid bases
Bases defended by NPCs, to raid without ever touching a real player. The loot goes to the group that attacks first.
Friend or foe
Roaming bots
AI-controlled survivors gather, hunt and trade. Some are peaceful, others far less so.

FAQ
Good questions
Is it really impossible to get raided?
Yes. The protections are enforced by the server itself: as long as your base has a Tool Cupboard (TC) of your group, nobody else can get in, break anything or take anything. PvE raid bases are NPC bases, built to be attacked.
What happens when I die?
Only your group can loot your body and your backpack, and the weapon in your hands stays on your body instead of falling to the ground.
Can I play solo?
Of course. Nothing is reserved for big groups, and nobody can take advantage of you when you are alone or offline.
When is the wipe?
Once a month, on the first Thursday of the month, together with the official game update.
Does VIP make you stronger?
The store sells time: basic resources, low grade fuel, the game’s real supply signal and comfort, with limits. Never any weapons, armor, explosives or gather boosts for sale. Everything is detailed on the Store page.
