How to get your first gun in rust fast and easy a rust getting started guide to guns

[@NotJaybo]

I spent an hour gathering stuff and was about to build a base and a guy ran up to me and one shotted me. Love this game.

[@gronk6203]

Rust moment

[@Chad-qk1ig]

That's why you don't gather shit until you have a base

[@Reksmore]

Ah see I gather shit then build a base after cargo.

[@timberwolfmountaineer873]

I had the same situation on my first day in Rust, which was 3 days ago. Somehow, i managed to turn the entire area where i built my humble shack(between dome, lighthouse, gas station and some radioactive industrial complex) into one friendly boyscout camp. Now Mexicans, Russians, Germans and other people all getting along and giving me bunch of stuff i struggle to cram into my crates. Not to stroke my own ego, but man's greatest weapon truly is his voice and charisma i suppose. Inb4: i play on vanilla EU, so no "friendly PVE" kind of server. Hopefully i haven't just jinxed it!

I cant believe there are people dissing this strat, i wasnt getting guns until the end of the first day as a solo previously. Even if I get killed with my gun after half an hour of running, Ill have x bullet bp'd and it will take that much less time to send it again! I really love this strat, props

[@Reksmore]

It is incredibly helpful to a lot of players who got stuck prim. It's much easier to get ahead when you have firepower! I'm glad I could help you!

[@LeoD.J]

Bro, I never knew there was a workbench at Bandit... I have almost 800 hours in the game, so I already knew most of what you explained in the video, EXCEPT THE WORKBENCH, thank you man this is a game changer. Before this I would always run past Bandit just to get to Outpost for the workbench

[@Reksmore]

Rip! Yup, wb repair and research all in both

[@burhansecvr7665]

This is very handy knowing that I could start a fresh wipe at bandit camp and get all the necessary things for surviving, thanks and you get a sub.

[@Reksmore]

[@LordReskiy]

Thanks man, right now im just chilling with a bow in my base along with my friend and have been wanting a gun but i haven't been sure on how i should get one, you have just helped a lot with that.

[@Reksmore]

Glad to help!

[@ArsonPanda909]

Been in the same boat. This is gonna help so much

[@leprisy7655]

Just did this 1 hour into wipe. Got the pistol got a crossbow got some armour and while roaming I got killed by 2 fully armoured guys with Thompsons in under 1 second….

[@lgnrome]

This is funny i was in the safezone with you yesterday talking about this. Thanks for all the help and info.

I spent the first 12 hours playing the game by slowly building up and now Im gonna try this

[@thomassmith7617]

Rust is a tough game to manage. But it is extremely fun. I just wish I was better at PvP especially because I work a lot and can't commit to a server where teamplay is a big deal I don't want to feel like I am just coming an hour or two throughout the week losing gear and hopping off while not contributing. This is why I am watching this video to learn how to have a higher chance at weapons especially in the Solo servers I play in (Vortex Solo) mainly. Because even in these medium pop servers the PvP gets a little poppin

[@Adam-ik7ck]

Wow didnt know that you could recycle grenades for go and frags. Really likes the video man you should post more rust gameplay

[@Reksmore]

Thanks man! glad I could help!

[@thronkar9966]

Dude this is awesome! I just started playing rust and constatly die to people with guns. Well now its my turn

[@Reksmore]

I'm going to start doing guides on monuments, what monument would you like to see first?

[@BigSel687]

Maybe mil tunnels or launch site

[@Reksmore]

Fair fair. Those are lesser known monuments

[@spizera]

I would like to see trainyard or define your top 3 monuments to get geared you are awesome dude keep up ;)

[@Reksmore]

Ty my dude. Trainyard is among my top 3 too lol

[@spizera]

I think you could record a long video.. starting on a fresh wiped server using the quick tips you've taught. This would be different and very nice!

[@AslanYeet]

I’m getting rust in 2 weeks so now I know everything I need to know about rust thank you very much

[@jakobmuster5318]

How did it go? You having fun? :D

[@gooberinabox]

You should do some vids on full wipes (like 53 minute vids)

[@Reksmore]

Things like that typically don't do to well for me rn unfortunately. The discoverability is fairly low. I may put out one or 2 just for those subs who wanna see it though

[@Unknown-zc8xk]

Came from tiktok WOOOOO

Love you tiktok fam

[@spitroastontoast9631]

How I get guns fast: having a friendly voice. Build next to a trio or higher, tell them I want a specific BP, willing to give them anything for it, give them double what they ask for. Guns on tap. I lose all my kits since I’m crap but being friendly in targeted ways can stop you being raided and get you stuff you need. My friendly voice is my biggest asset and weapon rn since I’m shid at pvp 😂😂😂

[@Reksmore]

So many people underestimate the value of talking to people and being friendly Voice chat is what makes rust IMO and so many people don't use it properly

[@sladewayne9135]

These tips are useful thanks

[@Reksmore]

Np good luck out there

[@Joshua_Griffin]

I suppose the main danger is getting killed while you're still in the process of traveling the map to obtain the weapon. But I suppose this is a factor no matter what strategy you employ, so I thank you for this interesting advice. It's a well made video, and I'll get back to you on my thoughts once I've put it into practice!

[@Reksmore]

Many who try it love this method, would love to hear if it works for you

[@Joshua_Griffin]

@@Reksmore Thanks. Do you think a variation would work where I buy the spas shotgun instead of the pistol, fill it with handmade shells and run military tunnels might work out?

[@Reksmore]

@@Joshua_Griffin I would think that wouldn't be as strong of an option. If you're going that route, a db from outpost could be better cuz you can bp it.

[@Joshua_Griffin]

@@Reksmore That's pretty smart. Thank you, that's a better idea on a wipe day. DB is intensely useful. Also, I tried running tunnels with spas, and it was crazy hard 😬 I think I'll need to find a way to get sar quickly

[@Joshua_Griffin]

@@Reksmore Do you ever buy a rifle from bandit camp on wipe? And try to be the first to run monuments that have bots? Just curious if this is a possibility, I'm fairly new to rust and have always progressed a lot slower than others, so I'm looking for ways to speed myself up on wipe day. Although I understand that possibly the main drawback of a rifle on wipe day is that you need tier 2 to produce ammo I suppose... But you referred to running oil rig in this video, what equipment do you use?

[@MnMRrollers]

Personally I like to farm water treatment and buy a revolver and bp both the revolver and the ammo before I even build a base. The revolver isn’t really considered good but it’s much much better than a bow. I can usually finish this before an hour into wipe

[@Sswervyy]

Quicker and cheaper way to get a gun with ammo. Farm barrels around bandit camp and in bandit camp and grind up whatever you have until you get around 350+ scrap, (gambling is an option too) Buy the M 92 pistol and a couple of grenades, grind up the grenades for gun powder and metal, research a bullet from the pistol, and craft more bullets from the grinded up grenades. This can all be done within the safety of bandit camp.

So your tip for getting a gun early, is to manifest 1k scrap and then buy a gun?

1k? 250 scrap gets you a gun. Which is like 10 minutes hitting barrels in the ocean or roads

[@ReaLeaff]

[@veetisarkela5756]

That's so bad method. I think you should make base first and grind scrap and if you hear shooting you should always go for it even if you are alone.

Idk man time and time again this has me in guns before others and winning most fights on outgunning them alone

Doesn't matter if you have a gun, then you'll just run into guys in full metal with AK's and 3k hours.
