The most important component of RUST is gunpowder, which is used to make bombs, bullets, and many other items. A steady supply of gunpowder is a true advantage in a survival game that features high-stakes battles, among other reasons. The fundamental procedures and methods for making enough gunpowder to maintain a well-stocked base are covered in this course.
Creating Gunpowder in RUST
Gunpowder preparation requires specific fundamental ingredients and the right tools. From gathering materials to creating stations to recycling to obtaining additional resources, this guide will take you through every step.
Basic Components for Making Gunpowder
Sulfur and charcoal are the two primary ingredients needed to make gunpowder. Charcoal is made by burning wood, whereas sulfur is extracted by mining sulfur ore. The optimal way to extract these resources may now be our main concern.
Obtaining Sulfur
The main component needed to produce gunpowder is sulfur. Sulfur is most frequently found in hilly places, so climb up and investigate rocky areas to mine it. The golden hue of sulfur ore makes it easier to identify it from the gray landscape. For sulfur nodules, a pickaxe is the most effective tool for obtaining the most yield. Harvest the sulfur-rich areas on a regular basis and label them.
Using Furnace to Process Iron Ore
Using a furnace, sulfur ore may be transformed into a usable form of sulfur. By passing 200 stones, 100 wood, and 50 low-grade, you may create a basic furnace. After obtaining the furnace, position it within your foundation and fill it with wood and sulfur ore. It progressively turns ore into sulfur when lit. By upgrading to a larger furnace, you may smelt more ore at once and expedite the process.
Making Charcoal
Another material needed to produce gunpowder is charcoal. Charcoal can be produced by burning wood in a huge furnace, a campfire, or a furnace. Simply fill these gadgets with wood and light them. Over time, charcoal will be created as a byproduct of wood, so make sure to gather it on a regular basis.
How to Craft Gunpowder?
Only if you have the option of a mixing table or a workbench can you make gunpowder. A Level 1 workbench may be made using 50 scrap, 100 metal, and 500 wood. More efficient mixing tables use 50 wood, 100 scrap, and 200 metal.
The benefits of using a mixing table include quicker and more efficient resource production. Two sulfur and two charcoal are needed to make ten gunpowder at a mixing table. Although it takes longer, you can get the same recipe in the same condition using a workbench. Now, choose according to the configuration of your base and the resources that are available.
Obtaining Gunpowder Through Recycling
Recycling might be a useful option to obtain gunpowder if you are in an area like an oil rig, tunnel, or boat and don’t have a lot of resources. Typically, monuments such as Outpost and Bandit Camps include recycling machines.
Recycling materials that produce the most gunpowder, such as explosive rounds, rockets, and satchel charges, is essential to success. Gunpowder may also be a byproduct of metal parts such as gears and pipelines. Remember to gather them when conducting raids or looking for ways to increase your gunpowder output.
Where Can Gunpowder be Used?
For making munitions such as handgun and rifle rounds, grenades, C4, and even base traps, gunpowder is an essential resource. You can maintain a flawless base defense and be ready for fight at all times thanks to the readily accessible supply of gunpowder. The only way to live and thrive in RUST is to be able to make gunpowder.
