1
00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:03,500
Guns are an essential part of Rust.

2
00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:10,000
They're mandatory for effective mid- and 
late-game PvP, as well as protecting yourself 
from other players.

3
00:00:10,100 --> 00:00:14,500
But for many beginners, finding even one 
gun is a challenge.

4
00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:18,000
So where exactly do you find guns in Rust?

5
00:00:18,100 --> 00:00:23,800
Well, in this video I'll go through where 
and how to get guns in Rust, which monuments 
and methods

6
00:00:23,900 --> 00:00:28,500
have the highest spawn chance, and which 
methods I personally go for.

7
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:34,500
This video includes the newest versions of 
the monuments, and their spawn rates and 
the information

8
00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:39,000
in this video is applicable for both PC and 
console versions of Rust.

9
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:45,500
Similar to my other Rust videos, this video 
is divided into seven different sections, 
and you can find

10
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:50,000
the timestamps for each segment in the description 
down below, or on the screen now.

11
00:00:52,500 --> 00:00:59,000
Finally, if you happen to learn something 
or enjoy this video, please consider leaving 
a like or subscribing,

12
00:00:59,100 --> 00:01:03,500
as it really helps out the channel, and I 
enjoy the dopamine of seeing the number go 
up.

13
00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:06,000
Now, on to the video.

14
00:01:08,500 --> 00:01:14,300
First,let's start off with the different 
types of crates where guns can spawn, so 
that you know what you're looking for.

15
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:24,000
In Rust, there are three different crates 
that can spawn guns, and they are: the regular 
crates, military crates, and elite crates.

16
00:01:24,100 --> 00:01:30,500
These different crate types, of course, have 
different guns in them, and consequently 
different spawn chances.

17
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:41,000
Regular crates have a 3% gun spawn rate, 
military crates have a 6% gun spawn rate, 
and elite crates have a 28% gun spawn rate.

18
00:01:41,100 --> 00:01:48,500
There are other containers that can spawn 
guns, but they're much rarer and unique, 
and I'll cover them later in the video.

19
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:55,500
Starting off, we'll begin with the no-tier 
monuments.

20
00:01:55,600 --> 00:02:00,500
First there's the abandoned cabins with a 
6% chance of spawning guns.

21
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:08,000
Next, the lighthouse has three possible crate 
spawns, so you have a 9% chance of getting 
at least one gun.

22
00:02:08,100 --> 00:02:14,500
The mining outpost, while it may seem full 
of crates, you only have a 17% chance of 
finding a gun there.

23
00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:19,500
The newly updated junkyard has an 18% chance 
of spawning guns.

24
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,900
It's called a junkyard for a reason.

25
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:30,500
Oxums gas station is a good early-game monument 
because it has three regular crates in addition 
to two military crates.

26
00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:34,500
You have a 19% chance of finding a gun there.

27
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:43,000
Similar to Oxums, the supermarket, also known 
as the sperm ket, is a great early-game monument.

28
00:02:43,100 --> 00:02:49,500
It has four regular crates and two military 
crates. You have a 22% chance of finding 
a gun.

29
00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:54,000
Finally for this section we have the tunnel 
stations.

30
00:02:54,100 --> 00:02:59,000
Since the tunnels go under the entire map, 
it would be ridiculous to calculate the percentages

31
00:02:59,100 --> 00:03:04,500
for all the stations — therefore, I'll only 
calculate one station's percentage.

32
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:08,500
One station has a 35% chance of spawning 
guns

33
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:13,900
Now, on to the tier one monuments.

34
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:23,500
Satellite dish is the worst in this section, 
with a 14% chance if you don't do the keycard 
puzzle and a 19% chance if you do.

35
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:32,000
Small harbor is a tiny bit better here with 
a 15% chance without the puzzle and a 22% 
chance with.

36
00:03:32,100 --> 00:03:41,000
Large harbor is better. If you don't do the 
puzzle, 22% chance, if you do do the puzzle, 
26% chance.

37
00:03:41,100 --> 00:03:49,500
A very good tier 1 monument, the dome, has 
a 35% chance of spawning a gun in one of 
its ten total crates.

38
00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:54,000
Finally, the best tier 1 monument is the 
sewer branch.

39
00:03:54,100 --> 00:04:02,000
Without doing the puzzle you have a 30% chance, 
and a 50% chance of finding a gun if you 
do do the puzzle.

40
00:04:02,100 --> 00:04:07,500
Next we have the tier 2 monuments, also known 
as blue card monuments.

41
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:16,500
Starting off we have power plant with a 38% 
chance of finding a gun without doing the 
puzzle, and a 55% chance if you do do the 
puzzle.

42
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:25,500
After that, there's the airfield with a 45% 
chance if you don't do the puzzle and a 61% 
chance if you do.

43
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:33,000
Next, we have water treatment with a 54% 
chance without the puzzle and a 64% chance 
with.

44
00:04:33,100 --> 00:04:44,000
Finally, and a personal favorite of mine 
— the trainyard has a 49% of spawning guns 
if you don't do the puzzle and a 68% chance 
if you do.

45
00:04:44,100 --> 00:04:48,000
Lastly, we have the tier 3 monuments.

46
00:04:48,100 --> 00:04:53,300
The launch site, home to the Bradley APC, 
has a 70% chance of spawning a weapon

47
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:58,000
without doing the puzzle and a 92% chance 
if you do.

48
00:04:58,100 --> 00:05:05,000
Guarded by dozens of AI scientists, the military 
tunnels are your best bet for finding guns.

49
00:05:05,100 --> 00:05:10,000
Not only can each scientist drop a gun, there's 
also seven elite crates total.

50
00:05:10,100 --> 00:05:17,000
You have an 88% chance of finding a gun if 
you don't do the puzzle and a 98% chance 
if you do.

51
00:05:19,500 --> 00:05:22,000
Now for the special monuments.

52
00:05:22,100 --> 00:05:29,500
The small and large oil rigs are off-shore 
monuments on top of which are locked crates 
protected by armed AI scientists.

53
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:36,000
Uh, if you'd like to see how to do small 
oil rig, I made a guide on it, which you 
can find in the top-right corner now.

54
00:05:36,100 --> 00:05:44,500
Anyway, there's only one locked crate here; 
however, there are also scientists and different 
types of crates, which can spawn guns.

55
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:54,000
The overall probability of getting at least 
one gun from small and large oil rigs is 
100% chance, with a 96% chance of getting 
a second one.

56
00:05:54,100 --> 00:06:01,500
The giant excavator is a monument that sometimes 
spawns on the island and is guarded by a 
number of armed scientists.

57
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:09,500
However, despite this, it only has a 4% chance 
of spawning guns so I wouldn't recommend 
it.

58
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:16,500
The attack heli, also known as the patrol 
heli, occasionally comes to patrol over the 
island.

59
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:20,500
If you shoot it down, it'll drop four helicopter 
crates.

60
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:24,000
Combined, they have a gun spawn rate of 50%.

61
00:06:24,100 --> 00:06:28,600
However, I wouldn't recommend trying this 
method since it's very difficult for newer 
players,

62
00:06:28,700 --> 00:06:33,000
and more experienced Rust players will usually 
come to counter the wreckage.

63
00:06:33,100 --> 00:06:39,000
The chinook helicopter sometimes flies over 
the island to drop a locked crate at different 
monuments,

64
00:06:39,100 --> 00:06:42,500
like water treatment and dome, just to name 
a couple.

65
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:50,500
The locked crate itself has a 100% chance 
of having at least one gun, but usually has 
two to three.

66
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:55,500
The cargo ship is an event which involves 
a cargo ship sailing around the island.

67
00:06:55,600 --> 00:07:01,500
It carries three locked crates as well as 
a number of regular, military, and elite 
crates.

68
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:08,500
Overall, you're guaranteed of at least getting 
three guns, and a 92% chance of getting more.

69
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:14,000
Every once in a while, a cargo plane will 
drop a supply drop somewhere on the island.

70
00:07:14,100 --> 00:07:20,500
Quick note, by the way: supply drops can 
be summoned by players by throwing down supply 
beacons.

71
00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:26,500
Each supply drop has one guaranteed gun and 
a 67% chance of having more.

72
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:34,000
You may find that large groups of players 
will actually be selling guns in player shops.

73
00:07:34,100 --> 00:07:38,500
They usually sell them for sulfur or scrap, 
so if you want to farm a little bit,

74
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:44,000
I'd say that just buying a gun from a player 
shop is generally a good idea.

75
00:07:44,100 --> 00:07:47,500
This is possibly the most straightforward 
way to get a gun.

76
00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:51,500
Just eliminate other players who already 
found guns.

77
00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:55,500
That way, you don't have to deal with doing 
monuments and looting crates.

78
00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:57,500
If you hear shots, go towards them.

79
00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:03,500
And obviously, a bow vs. a gun isn't a fair 
fight, so I'd recommend trying to grub a 
fight.

80
00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:11,500
That means using lower-tier weapons like 
compound bows to kill highly geared players 
that already have guns

81
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:18,800
If you start a bit later into the wipe, there's 
a good chance that there will be a few decaying 
bases that have guns inside.

82
00:08:18,900 --> 00:08:23,300
I recommend checking them out. You never 
know what you may find in those.

83
00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:28,500
Safe zones such as the outpost and bandit 
camp actually sell guns for scrap.

84
00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:37,300
The outpost sells revolvers and double barrels 
and the bandit camp sells slightly better 
guns like LRs, M39s, and M92s.

85
00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:43,500
If you find that you're sitting on a bunch 
of scrap, you can also use the tech tree 
inside your workbench to get guns.

86
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:49,500
All you have to do is open the workbench 
and research the particular branch that leads 
to a gun.

87
00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:55,000
The Bradley APC tank, as we mentioned before, 
is the tank that guards the launch site.

88
00:08:55,100 --> 00:09:04,500
If you manage to take it out, it'll drop 
three APC crates. There's a 56% chance of 
getting at least one gun from Bradley.

89
00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:09,000
Once you actually get a gun, you'll have 
to research it so that you can craft it later.

90
00:09:09,100 --> 00:09:14,500
Depending on the gun, it can cost anywhere 
between 75 and 500 scrap.

91
00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:20,500
Keep in mind that the military-grade weapons 
such as M92s and LRs cannot be researched.

92
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:25,500
To research a gun, go to your research table, 
throw the gun and the scrap in there,

93
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:30,000
and after a few seconds, you'll get a blueprint 
for that gun.

94
00:09:30,100 --> 00:09:36,000
After you've researched the gun that you 
found, you have to craft it and to do that, 
you need specific components.

95
00:09:36,100 --> 00:09:44,000
The components that are usually needed to 
craft guns are springs, SAR bodies, SMG bodies, 
and rifle bodies

96
00:09:44,100 --> 00:09:48,500
However, the materials and the amounts vary 
entirely  on what gun you're making.

97
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:56,000
So, to be absolutely certain of what components 
you need, just check the crafting requirements 
in the crafting menu.

98
00:09:56,100 --> 00:10:00,500
Personally, my favorite methods of getting 
guns are by looting decayed bases,

99
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:05,500
through PvP, and by doing trainyard and sewer 
branch a couple of times.

100
00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:10,500
I find that these options are the simplest 
and most effective for me and my play style.

101
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:14,500
But then again, that's just my play style 
and how I enjoy playing.

102
00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:19,500
If you really have no idea where to start, 
I'd recommend just buying a gun from a player 
shop.

103
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:28,500
If there aren't any player shops, the dome 
is a good place to go since it has a good 
spawn chance for a monument with no puzzle.

104
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:33,000
Now for the math part of the video. I'll 
make it fast.

105
00:10:33,100 --> 00:10:38,000
First, I calculated the probability of getting 
at least one gun from each crate.

106
00:10:38,100 --> 00:10:44,500
Then, I went around all the monuments in 
Rust and counted how many of each type of 
crate there was.

107
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:48,500
I then multiplied the number of crates with 
their corresponding probability

108
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:53,000
to find the probability of getting at least 
one gun from that specific crate.

109
00:10:53,100 --> 00:11:00,500
I then multiplied the probabilities of all 
the crates from one monument together to 
find the probability with and without doing 
the puzzle.

110
00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:06,500
Therefore giving me the total probability 
of getting at least one gun from each monument.

111
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:15,000
Lastly, just to be sure, I rans some monuments 
a few times to find if the experimental probability 
matched my theoretical probability.

112
00:11:15,100 --> 00:11:18,500
If you want to be more depressed than you 
already will be from playing Rust,

113
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:22,500
I've attached a link to the Google spreadsheet 
in the description.

114
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:27,000
Finally, I'd like to thank my homie Alex, 
who is exceptionally smarter than me

115
00:11:27,100 --> 00:11:31,000
and who stayed up until three in the morning 
helping me figure out all of this shit.

116
00:11:31,100 --> 00:11:33,500
So, thank you Alex.

117
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:38,500
Well gamers, that's the end of this video.

118
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:44,500
Apologies for taking so long to upload this 
one, but math sucks ass and I'm not the brightest 
tool in the shed.

119
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:51,000

123
00:12:08,100 --> 00:12:10,900
I don't know, I'd say it's pretty worth it.

124
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:17,000
That's all from me boys, I hope you have 
a wonderful day, and do not. Fucking. Shoot 
yourself.
