A different kind of Rust

Terminus

  • Nothing gathers.
  • Nothing crafts.
  • Everything drops.

Every item in the game can drop from every loot container. You scavenge.

Fresh spawn

Your first five minutes

  1. Wake up in the welcome center

    You spawn in town empty-handed. Read the signs in the room.

  2. Grab your starter kit

    Type /kit in chat.

  3. Walk out, turn left

    The quest giver is behind the counter in the next room.

  4. Take the three Terminus quests

    At the end of his list. They give what you cannot craft:

    Zoning and PlanningBuilding plan It's Hammer Time!Hammer What a ToolTool cupboard

  5. Hit the road

    Your first loot: roadside crates and barrels.

Where everything comes from

Loot is everything

Crates, barrels, NPCs: every normal loot source can drop any item in the game, resources included. Each container leans toward a type. Learn the pattern.

Toolbox

Building supplies

Red oil barrel

Fuel and ammo

Military crate

Guns

Food box

Meds and food

A lean is a habit, not a rule. Anything can still drop from anything.

Crack one open

Pick a container. Tap it until it gives.

Your haul 0 items 0 to recycle

Rolled from the real Terminus loot tables, simplified. Your luck in game will vary.

Keep the junk

Recycling is the real gather

Some resources drop as loot, but your best yield is the recycler. Junk is in the loot tables on purpose: wooden arrow stacks, stone barricades, big stacks of nailgun nails, most electrical items, melee weapons and tools. Smart players keep it.

Auto Recycler

The most useful thing on Terminus

Scavenging means recycling all the time. Ranks let you do it without a machine.

Virtual recycler

Recycle straight from your inventory.

  • VIP Gold

The basics

Where your gear comes from

Plan, hammer, cupboard

Three quests at the end of the quest giver's list: Zoning and Planning, It's Hammer Time! and What a Tool. All three also drop as loot now and then.

How quests work

Guns and ammo

From vendors or from loot.

Healing

Nothing to craft. Find food or meds.
