3 or 4 spears would break a 8 hp hard side stone wall. 1 spear does 2.5 damage to hard side stone. You had the wood on you for that.

[@tusk3260]

I love seeing you make your own base design as you play. Thats how i do it too. Its way better that way as you learn more and have fun. Its those janky and bad looking bases that teaches us the most on how to build.

So, I've been religiously watching your saturday night streams for a couple of years...Just turned 40, and strangely, my 20 year old, decided he had a free weekend and wanted to try Rust, turns out hes been watching you also!!!... I'll be honest, I've tried Rust as a solo a few times, and never even managed to get a base down... can hold my own on COD or PUBG, but never managed to survive on RUST... well... lets just say, as a duo (we started on wipe day)... we got a base... it was an awful design, but TC was Amoured... (the lad added wooden windows, dont ask), we fought tooth and nail due to schedules, and mostly being solo... We got to SAR's, and engaged with the wrong guys... it attracted the Russian Zergs.... We held our own on PVP for about 3 seconds.... Killed a few, but eventually poor base design, and inexperience prevailed..... Despite that, it was an amazing experience... especially when the russian heli came by with what sounded like a mini gun.... Anyway, it was all inspired by you... a son and his father, brought together for an unforgettable experience.... Thanks for the content bro, and keep up the good work!!! PS, if you were on the Rusty moose this wipe, and kicked our ass... We'll get you next time.... unlikely :D

A video where you play with drones sounds fun. I've never messed with them myself. Maybe surveil a monument or a raid to know when is the right time to strike, or even just keep an eye on your neighborhood. 14:52 I've also seen some cool "raid detectors" that send you notifications on the app when stuff gets destroyed. Might be worth looking into. ULTIMATE INTELLIGENCE GATHERING BUILD. Information is the strongest weapon.

[@jaceritchie7043]

Watching willijum for the rust❌ Watching willijum for the story✅

[@LtksK]

Yeah, i've seen an argument regarding Willjum on a video from aloneintokyo. Some people were hating on Willjum, because he isn't as aggressive and pvp focussed as they'd like him to and because he allegedly does the exact same things all the time. I get that people who play a game a lot have their style and that's what they want to see in a video. But while Willjum doesn't play the way they'd like, he really does a good job in telling a story. I haven't seen that many videos of him, because I never played Rust, but in all videos I've seen multiple people said that they never played Rust and/or are beginners. So even though those people, me included, don't have a clue about the game can easily follow what's happening and have fun doing so. I guess that really speaks for how well Willjum does his job as a storyteller. People actually watch his videos because of him and his adventures, not because of Rust. I've watched their duo game (Willjum and aloneintokyo) from both perspectives and there is a huge difference. I do like videos from aloneintokyo as well, the cave base wipe was a banger, but from his perspective the duo game looked kinda basic, as if not much interesting stuff happened. On the other hand from Willjums perspective it was quite an adventure and I had lots of fun watching it.

[@jaceritchie7043]

@@LtksK I agree brother

[@ben5931]

IDEA: Raid someone's base, set up remote door controllers, then give them the codes to their base as a note. This will let them think they have their base back, then pop by every so often and take some of their farm. Also set up cctv inside their base to watch them farm for you!

[@lnterest-ing]

for ideas for the future, i always think its really cool when rust creators reach out to other sections of the creation space. Maybe you could lean into a bit more roleplaying for a wipe, like running a hotel, but make it properly defendable instead of just a big square. Maybe something like a solo cooperative where you work with other solos to lift each other up

[@blinkeetrainer1438]

Wiljum for next you should Spin a wheel and what it lands on is what doors you can only use and What material u use for walls , floors, etc

[@Dvinven]

There are some caves that you can take a power wire and bring it up to the surface. You can make a base outside the cave with solar/wind power that then brings power to your cave base. You could use electricity/cameras/drones to monitor the surface while in your cave to ensure that no one is inside/outside of the cave. That could be a cool base. and yeah as others suggest, also have it trapped with cameras to watch as people get trapped.

[@Frosty-dp4hc]

@Willjum, to make sure you never fuck-up your Vennding TC, place a half wall, triangle frame, remove half wall, place door frame, center TC in door as close to you as possible with the triangle frame still there. Then just remove triangle frame and walla, perfect TC placement behind Vendy all the time.

If I may Willjum, when you go out prepared to loot decayed bases like that (or raiding them), you should consider crafting a backpack :)

[@thatoneginger]

You should do a wipe where you just go full role play, build a cabin with normal looking doors windows and roofs, fire place, farm outside, just go full homestead. Have a tight little bunker design attached maybe as a barn or silo or something to keep your stuff safe but just lean all the way into cozy rp

[@DannyfMartin]

Your excitement during the build is contagious .

[@willwhite636]

Love your videos, man! Just a random idea. Maybe you could try a video where you do a wipe only with resources you get from raiding/roaming. Try to make a giant base. I know you like to farm so it would be a cool challenge to watch.

I'd also love to see the 4 solo bases, but this time build them just close enough that you all build turret bases that all cover a center location that you share. You get raided and then have the small bases with all the turrets open up and its just turrets an guns in a 360 circle around your main base! Might be stupid but it would funny as hell the one time it works.
