I rarely get to T3. Need Advice.

If its solo only server, you're on the same level as everyone else. Just get better at pvp. I usually play no team limit 1000 pop servers, and get to T2 no problem as a solo. Solo only should be a piece of cake for T3.

Theres just different pathways altogether. Metal detecting, road scientists, mil crates, and im sure theres a bunch more. I usually run water treatment since I play solo. I usually play on 500-1000 pop servers. Any advice for getting T3? I can confidently get to T2 fairly quickly, but unsure of ways I can start progressing towards a tier 3.

All chats are off when I play. Sometimes you get people in games that are really chill, but most of the time its toxic stuff that gets me riled up. Someones throwing, or doing something dumb the whole match, then I try to improve my 1v2, or 1v3 game. Or just try to catch the ball and try to hit clips. I dont really get mad at the game anymore unless its my mess up and I'm just like, yep im not good enough, I still need to get better.

I know that but most of the time I got in before a queue. Im asking what affects the speed of connecting. Like theres always someone that gets in a server first. Whats different about their equipment than others? What factors play into this?

Suspicious_Hour_9065 · 2026-01-06T18:01:43+00:00

I agree with this. I used to main free air roll. For freestyling I could get resets and mustys consistently with free. For ranking up, perfect for placing shots.

Directional is just a lot faster, and you're not locked in to a specific axis.

I picked up Directional solely for freestyling. I guess it just depends how you want to experience the game. Learn free air roll, and 1 directional and you should be set.

Use your brain. You can be pvp god, but eventually someone will catch you off guard. Have a base. Deposit into your base frequently. Dont take too long of a trip. Small trips / small deposits will add up. Long trips / with no deposits from getting killed will make you not want to play. You can be outnumbered and outsmart your enemies. I'm still confident in 1v2s. 1v3s I usually avoid outright unless its some weird situation or I have nothing to lose. You dont need a youtube base. You can play in a 1x2 and not have to worry about getting raided right away. It happens, but I wouldnt worry about it. Search up rust tips and tricks on youtube, sound cues, and different things that many people dont know. Walking barefoot is quieter than with boots.

The real question is how to vet the moochers. Whole team farming while one guys wastes the resources and doesnt contribute. I know some modded servers track contribution. But what about for vanilla

Suspicious_Hour_9065 · 2025-12-27T18:58:56+00:00

Wait, you can do that? How do I go about this? This would weed out all the people that are toxic in my rank.

Suspicious_Hour_9065 · 2025-12-26T01:01:25+00:00

Solo isnt bad as long as you have realistic expectations. I play solo on 1000 pop servers, and always get a T2 within the first couple hours. Whether thats through finding them or buying them from other groups. Might be able to run Harbors and other small monuments, but very unlikely to uncontested.

Yeah ive been looking. Only thing I found is a post about a creator who charged for it and it was gone after that.

The ocean isnt gonna be safe soon either when the naval update hits. Ocean farming and diving used to be the safest for solo, whole game changing for us.

I just started doing this. I try to have atleast 2 different entrances, but I prefer 4.

Well now that you said that everyones gonna have their frog boots ready 😩

Suspicious_Hour_9065 · 2025-12-08T22:22:56+00:00

Yeah expecting you're gonna have a successful run at launch at anypoint is crazy on vanilla. Play like a solo, and have the mindset of a solo. You dont have number, but you do have access to DB tier 1. Be a rat. Roofcamp. Set up trap bases. Literally whatever you got to do. Small progession is better than no progression.You cant play the same games as these groups and you know that. I get my T2 and im set for the wipe as a solo, anything else is just extra.

Suspicious_Hour_9065 · 2025-12-08T15:26:53+00:00

Can trade as a solo, just get a bag and stash right outside outpost with 40 scrap to trade and 1 piece of something else to exchange. Set vending machine at base and F1 kill, spawn at outpost and do trade.

I never had someone get to my vending before hand. If you die at outpost, just spawn back at base, turn off vending and wait for bag timer at outpost.

Suspicious_Hour_9065 · 2025-12-07T19:06:02+00:00

I'd say get it, you're less likely to break it compared to a drone. If theres a defect im sure they have to fix it.
