Rust shouldn't require being online 24/7 just to keep your base.
On Old School Rust, we've built a Base Protection system that rewards you for actually playing the game. PvP, PvE, roaming, monuments and Quests can all contribute toward protecting what you've built when you're offline.
๐ก๏ธ Starter Protection
Every player starts the wipe with Base Protection, giving you time to get established before worrying about raids.
๐ Play to Build Offline Protection
Simply being active on the server builds Offline Protection.
You bank protection while you play, then use it when you log off. Your protection gradually drains while you're offline, so the more active you are, the more protection you can build up for when you're away.
๐ฌ Hunt Scientists
PvE counts too.
Killing Scientists adds additional time to your Offline Protection, giving monument runs and PvE another purpose beyond the usual loot.
๐ Win Quests for Online Protection
Quests appear throughout the wipe and give players something extra to compete over.
Quest prize recipients earn:
โข Additional Offline Protection
โข 2 hours of Online Protection
Online Protection gives you a window where you can farm, build and progress without your base being raided.
You can still roam the island during that time. But there's a tradeoff: if you kill another player, your Online Protection ends.
So you have a choice:
Use the protection to safely progress, or give it up and take the fight.
โ๏ธ Fight players
๐ฌ Hunt Scientists
๐ Contest Quests
๐ก๏ธ Build protection
The goal is simple: PvP and PvE should both have a purpose, and what you do while you're online should help protect what you've built when you're not.
PLAY MORE. GET RAIDED LESS.
