The "ULTIMATE” 2x1 EXPANSION!

[@SecretBuilds]

Use my code “secret” on howl.gg/r/secret for a free $1 in rust skins

[@kiwi2k_toasted]

Could u reply to this comment with the tc upkeeps and build cost? That’d be dope so I can consider if I’d build some version of this 2x1 expansion

[@deasmeofficiel2960]

Hello am a new player in Rust , i had a question for you about placing two bed alongside each other and if it was rly usefull bcause am pretty sure i have done it but whenever i used one of them both of them were on CD so why ppl do that ?

[@itz-mezzy]

​@@deasmeofficiel2960it's for a friend or if someone breaks your bed you still have another one so always usefull cuz raiders will take always some more time breaking the bag and if you're solo it's not the best but still good

[@Giannis3434]

The best advice I have for you is to speed it up and make it more of a easy tutorial to learn. I like the thumbnail, you should follow that kinda idea in your video.

[@cosmicfrost4752]

Dont listen to all these haters; your videos are fab and ur definitely one of the best builders around. Your subs show it!. Much love bro ❤😊

[@Alexanderveh]

Bro. I'm finna raid u so I can fill up all your boxes with half durability rocks and torches

[@MrTefe]

I have made this base many times. Last wipe it survived 3 offline raids and 1 online raid. Its really easy to remember with a bit of learning and a great and defendable base design. Its good looking too The only bad thing is the lack of externals on the sides of the base but those are really easy to make and not a big problem.

[@seroton8857]

I don't plan to build any base, but you explained it so descriptively and beautifully that I watched the video to the end.

[@Kiiwano]

[@severalwhitespaces]

Very slick build. Lots of good building concepts being combined here, and framing it as an expansion to a 2x1 is a great for QOL and is a real topper. Thanks for putting this together.

[@joonyerphilip5366]

Dude I like how you broke down the external TC. Learning myself thanks man.

[@MrTefe]

probably the best rust building video. not being too fast so i can understand whats going on. definitely gonna be making this

[@pro_grind.r_yt8642]

Very straightforward and easy to follow guide. The only thing that I'd like to see additionally is a materials list on how much it costs for each segment and upkeep per day. Otherwise great starter base :)

[@luckyy8535]

I'm not sure about each section but total build cost is: 24k wood 21k frags 88k stone including 29 garage doors, windmills, lockers. Main TC upkeep: 16,552 stone 3,453 metal each external TC while connected is: 28 wood 1550 stone 187 frags

I really hate to see other people hating on your builds. If you clicked on the video in the first place and you watch this dudes builds, you will know how killer the base designs are. If you hate on this man for a great 2x1 expansion, don’t complain about in the damn comments. If your suck a builder yourself, try and upload 1 to 2 videos a day about new builds

[@SecretBuilds]

I really truly appreciate that man. Love you homie ❤️❤️

[@OblivionBliss]

@@SecretBuilds thanks man, keep up the good work

[@osTr0ve]

XD this expansion is shit. 2 garage 1 wall 1 garage main loot and TC. Unnecessary multi TC like 8k stones (first you need to upgrade your main home/TC) And a lot of problems on a real wipe for solo. I will express a constructive opinion with arguments so that other people don't waste their time on this video after seeing my comment

[@runtofthelitter333]

the fact that he uploads twice a day legit proves that his bases have 0 thought put into them?

[@SecretBuilds]

@@runtofthelitter333 LMAOO. I upload twice a day!!?? 😭😭💀💀💀💀💀

[@fishingwithfink4797]

Killer vid my dude. I will have to say I really like this style of vid where you’re explaining everything versus the videos where you’re just building them. Helps guys like myself that are slow builders lol Keep up the great work my dude! 🤙🏼

[@Secretbuildingtips]

[@SecretBuilds]

Much love my guy. Appreciate it a lot

[@yothisgamesucks]

I’ve definitely built bases off your videos where you don’t talk but having you explain what you are doing makes it 1000 times easier.. Also you will be happy to know that the oasis is STILL my go to design for a quick base. I get compliments on it constantly. I did change a few things up to make it my own and make it work on a 1milx battlefield server. But even the og version will hold up to 3 mlrs and an airstrike.. which is a vip thing on the battlefield server that I’ve seen absolutely level a base. This one looks just as good. Gotta give it a try cuz I need all the peeks I can get to defend against this pesky vips 😂 peace and love my dude.. keep it up

[@SecretBuilds]

Hey man I really appreciate that homie ❤️❤️

[@MVP.RESELL]

good to put a twist on things@@SecretBuilds

[@delroypure5671]

The only people with the leg up are those who watch the video. It is up to us to make our own and catch naive raiders offguard. Great video, needed to be this long i think. Well explained, easy to watch. Even simpler to follow along. I always make no mistake following your guides.

[@cyberfraudist]

the shelf somehow doesnt work for me at the starter 2x1 has it been patched? 1:09

[@henleywingg420]

You have placed the tc wrong place shelf then tc it will help

[@NoName-py5xs]

amazing base ! Just quick question - why would u need to disconnect ur main TC during raid? Im kinda new to Rust, thanks for answer in advance! Keep up the good work !

[@henleywingg420]

Because the externals are to close with the added extentions towards the base and it thinks it is on the main tc

[@shyguyguyx3886]

I thought this was very cool I started getting back into rust again just to have fun and I love simple bases that do the job thank you for the great video ❤

[@SecretBuilds]

Aye man. I’m happy to hear that !!

[@not_soro]

my first actual build design i used it today for wipe and so far its great im about to hop off hopefully it survives the night and ill keep using this design for a while if so : i survived the night and ive turned into a chad after using this design

[@DoubleGee_1]

As a new rust player, this is the first build vid that Ive seen that actually explains what the hell is going on. Thank you, subbed.

[@flatline3131]

2:32 THAT ALONE DESERVES RESPECT !

[@blandtheman29]

love this base build it on every server work so well😎😎😎

[@dsniper9986]

i love the base design but i just want to let you know at the double door in shell that puts you into the up and over part of the base you should switch that honeycomb to the tc side instead on the door side just to give the tc a little bit more protection

[@SecretBuilds]

Thanks for the feedback

[@dark_dest0ryer]

You could also add a single door frame then add vending machine for extra storage

[@kedalin]

If you go in through the 6 box loot room (only 1 wall to outside), you take down the garage door and then floor to TC room and you're in.

[@BiigBean]

This dude seems like the type to give you enough cloth for a bag when your a fresh spawn

[@Morleyx99]

How can I not sub after this level of detail. I wish I could remember these sick designs everytime I just jump scare myself into a 6 triangle foundation 😅

[@user-hr9ez7vp3u]

Okay so I LOVE THIS, BUT Secret, please put in info such as how much would be the upkeep and exactly how much resources would be required to build such a base. Like exactly how much stone and wood would be required. Thank would love a reply, and you have a new sub! Keep up the good work, the thumbnail was good, it motivated me to click the video.

[@adedruyt1624]

cant wait to try this out. Looking foroward to the rest of the series!!

[@SecretBuilds]

Let me know how it goes !!!

[@adedruyt1624]

@@SecretBuilds loving it so far. the box space is a literal savior.

[@thexalax]

love it! i re-created this base but from a 2x2 into this (was kinda hard in some parts, because im new to the game), imo this design is great, and i love 2x2 bases because it easier to move around and faster to gear up! i changed quite a lot of things, but still kept the main design! really good base, gonna build it soon in a wipe!

[@IDK018]

Secret ignore all the hate people are saying you put time and effort into these videos your doing great👍

Much love

[@tokyo-on-10fps]

Just finished building this and honeslty top tier never felt like a pro more in my life however I only using my code for loot lmao until I get more stacked 😂

[@joeyrosier1751]

Upkeep per day is 2034 metal frags - 14408 stone - 13 wood

[@bcrow45]

Ignore all the hate secret, this was the first base I’ve ever built and it wasn’t complicated at all, survived my very first offline as well. Great base, keep it up. ❤

[@alzapiedi2]

i loved the part at 26:58 when you were deciding what to swap out for the locker and still kept the AK on ur bar instead of the bed lol

[@peopleperson7067]

Yo this is definitely my favorite base so gonna use for wipe

[@SecretBuilds]

Aye love to see it. Let me know how it goes !!

[@peopleperson7067]

Going great already got box of sulfur!

[@adampedigrew9319]

Had my first successful online defend today. Love the base. I changed the top peaks (the ones from the external to the main low wall under the shooting floor. I made them same height so i could shoot through the tiny gap. Killed 3 then took there loot. Best day in rust ever. Im not a noob but im realy bad at pvp so i was hyped. Defo my new build andxyou defo get a,sub.

[@zeno-7548]

I play solo most of the times and just started Rust. While i think it's a great video explaining how to expand , don't think i'll ever build this bcs it's not worth it when solo. This requires a crazy amount of resources and building time. I really thought this is going to be a starter base vid with smart but strong designs. This works for clans i think. Cheers🍻

[@DanMcGrath77]

Not bad, but the 21:13 mark where you join the section back to the main base, you need to put some extra half walls under the solid tris. Otherwise, the outside half wall is a single point that can be blasted away to knock out the entire connection. Specifically, the spot where you put the turret should really be honey comb, and a pair of turrets on either side, instead.

[@strategicavocado]

Yo I've been using this base and its good for onlines, not that strong for offlines tho. One thing that you can do is to add metal barricades behind the roofs in the peeks so people can't softside. Apart from that, I really like this base and its easy to build. Cheers Secret keep it up

[@adityarajkhowalama]

Very well done intricate base design video. I'm not a rust sweat I just like to have fun so I'll probably not make this anytime soon. But if I find some friends, I'll definitely come back to this video

[@nnpfffn.6392]

First I expect nothings just click bait video but when I see till the end wtf this is pure fucking gold.Personal I hate to build wide gaps because it take so much time so this is the right base for me. Big Thanks 🎉🎉🎉your deserves more than this❤❤❤ Keep it up my friend.

[@user-ew7mr2fr8u]

This build is so good, I’m using this and made everything armored and really strong

[@southlamassacre4396]

I build this base I felt like the greatest builder of all time thank you lol it was fun

[@why-willow]

good base but i don’t think the shooting floor covers the whole compound/near the base. also you might’ve been able to fit a bunker in the wallstack + there were some unused squares that could’ve been extra loot storage or bedrooms. overall though i think its a nice, unique take on a common footprint that’s actually really cheap. it’s definitely usable but i think it could be made a bit better with a couple extra edits, good job 👍

[@SecretBuilds]

True. Your right there’s some More stuff I could have added for sure! I appreciate your feedback though and much love ❤️❤️

[@Rattlesnakezzzz]

Was thinking the same thing lol

[@AeroDesignsNN]

@4:15 I like putting my WB1 and research bench infront of the double doors to the outside so that I can open them and shoot out without worrying about anyone getting it. Works like nice little early game peaks to defend from

[@SecretBuilds]

Yeah whatever you want in this area. Don’t use exactly what I place down for deployables, do whatever placements you wan t

[@BHGC_BLade]

A tip is to put external tc in a triangle so if people raid your external they gotta blow a triangle to get the loot from it

[@Pixels484]

Nice build bro. I’m planning on building it🔥🔥🔥

[@brandonzipfel8398]

How to drain the turrets ez. Ladder on the wood wall with the top of the furnace between you and the turret. You should get a spot where no matter what gun is in the turret it should drain.

[@YinRo_]

Me: how many times have you made this base? SECRET: yes

[@evandertyson8748]

Absolutely love these bases been using urs for a while bc they are not to expensive and you have so many for different sized groups using this one for Mondays you already know it running 3 deep we will devour the server and defend any online attempt keep it up

[@SecretBuilds]

Much love man

[@jeffplays5737]

Cost to build?

[@Sharpe94]

biggest weakness with small/medium bases are that the walls and doors are easy to splash with rockets... I feel people sleep too hard on single doors for when you upgrade to armored walls

[@CharlieMaloney-hu8vp]

W vid love the base it is a easy starter and cheap enough for a solo duo

[@September.CounterBlox]

tbh id rather do my roof before a full compound

[@ThatBaldBoie]

[@SecretBuilds]

Aye much love ❤️❤️🫡

[@oxxSlimShadyxxo]

Hope you could answer, I’m practicing this build now and was wondering, first when just beginning the funnel, do 4 triangles and the you do the square, why? The 4th triangle is what we need isn’t it? Or is there something I’m missing? Also why wait with connecting them to base? I could connect them with those triangles any time? I’m pretty new to rust so wanted to understand the reasoning

[@jakobwest6526]

I almost done building this base, just gonna finish up the shooting floor tomorrow, but where could you place a large battery in this base?

[@user-jr5pv9oi6t]

wait so the shell will decay if i don't have outer tcs??

[@chasef6901]

used this base for the first time the other day and defended an online raid and was really easy to defend bc of all the peaks

[@0zark748]

nice base design, ill definitely use it. was just wondering why that foundation next to ext TC is wood, can we upgrade to stone or metal??

[@yourmandavey]

No idea why people hates this base , i absolutely love it , not gonna lie i aint bob the builder and i might not stand a chance to build it on a server unless that server has very low pop but that didnt stop me to build it on the ukn building server 😊, i even saved it . I will try to build it on a server in the future and hopefully ill get online raided to see how it goes ! Thank u for the content 🙏🙏🙏

I love this style of video im new to rust and a slow builder so i need this type of video. Thanks so much for the base design im going to try build it on ser winter server. Also, it wouldve been good to see the materials used/upkeep per stageof the base. But not an issue great base

[@SecretBuilds]

Haha much love man

This is great but definitely not for a noob like me, there's just a lot happening I have a headache just watching lol. Hopefully one day I will be able to make great expansions like this, great video thank you for sharing

[@Decaying_bacon]

Bold of you to assume im not prim locked

[@kedalin]

I've been using this base design for the last 3 wipes on a 2x and 3x server. The base is really good to defend, but let's be honest, who's online for defending their base? I got offlined a lot and really cheap tbh. They would usually just blast through the walls after entering the shell. It's really fun and easy to build, though.

[@MarcoBellocchio_noone]

I'll definitely try that on my next wipe, ggs man

[@SecretBuilds]

For sure man let me know how it goes !!!

[@Scouter5050]

technically this is a domain expansion

[@SecretBuilds]

Aye let me know how it goes. And thank you as well for the support

[@JakePlaysVR6]

Tip: He uses plugins on rust! Make sure you add materials and upkeep as you go or it will decay and make it easier for it to be raided :) (i wil list total cost if you dont wanna have to watch the vid)

[@JakePlaysVR6]

Build Cost: 45,000 Stone | 35,000 Metal Fragments | 52 High Quality Metal Upkeep: 7,250 Stone | 6,500 Metal Fragments | 13 High Quality Metal (in the desc)

[@ozzzieyt4159]

Thanks so much bro I couldn't build funnel walls because of terrain but your getting subscribe from me keep up the good work

[@FLwithTheE30]

Update: Upkeep is now 15k idk why

[@iamlithyo]

what is the purpose of disconnecting the TC during a raid?

[@Lamers2K]

It’s because if you do, when they come on there whole base is gone

[@MrTefe]

If you get raided and they break your TC you or they cant place another one without disconnecting the external TC's

[@Djvyruz]

If u make the entrance jump up on the left side you have more Security for tc. The t3 is behind that Wall

[@SecretBuilds]

Thank you 😍😍

[@joshhickey4799]

can you move tc from core to a 4th or 5th or 6th floor later in wipe with this build or will you be blocked from placing the new tc?? -not a builder...
