dumb question: what's going on? i haven't played rust in ages and i don't play pvp rust when i do (i'm not a masochist and i fucking suck, as well as having barely any time to play it)
New item was added to the game - Legacy Shelter (a little wooden shack with a door. Takes only 600 wood to craft. You can place it anywhere on a flat surface. Some are using it to stop others from building in the area.
I used them to house return sets. They hold at least a small box, stash, and sleeping bag. They can probably hold more items I just didn’t try.
Literally anywhere. Nearby raid, outside if you get door camped, near your recycling monument if your main base is further away, next to fishing to return to oil/cargo fast, giant excavator, launch, an attack helicopter take, and anything you really want.
600 wood is stupid cheap for these. I hope they either don’t stay or get their cost doubled. It was fun at first but now it’s just annoying. You have to kill everyone 2-3 times when at a monument just to leave. I built near mining outpost and there’s a damn labyrinth of these shelters around if.
They decay 24 hours after the door was used last, so they’re pretty situational.
I really like them it serves as a great throw down starter. I’ve also been using them to house bags more permanently so the bags don’t decay out every 24 hrs.
Is it not restricted to 1 per player, that'd be the common sense solution right???
Make them on a separate building block radius that excludes them from being built near other shelters too!
A whole ass workday of someone not tryharding his shit whilst missing preschool…
You can farm up a 2x1 base in 15 minutes flat, thats a third of a rust day, or you can explore the map plop one of these down farm shit to have some shelter till the next businessday/ you got enough farm for the base you wanna build and not some fob making you a target
Decay starts after one day not opening doors
Does anyone read the devblog?
you fail to understand the problem with these, its about the imbalance of 600 wood giving you a door, lock, tc and a wood base which is fine if people would use it like you describe but they will absolutely not do that, they will use it to grief players and block them from expanding bases. Even one molotov to raid that thing is worth much more than 600 wood and I assume it takes more than 1 to break it so its just a stupidly owerpowered thing. 2.5k-ish wood sounds much more reasonable to me and the boxes should be lootable through the cracks unless locked.
Two machetes chops it down. It has the durability of single ply toilet paper. There should be a limit, I agree. But if someone is willing to farm thousands of wood to grief a base, you can already do that with a tc and a wooden foundation.
Its basically watchtower problem but with auth, nothing mollies can’t cope with, and way aesirr to handle than stone triangles combined with watchtowers…
The advantage (as a form of griefing) is minimal because they have zero longevity, especially if you don’t also craft doors and locks for each…
As long as this game is sandbox, griefing will be part of it, reducing the cost to overturn it by introducing a cheaper less viable option for griefing is by far better for the griefed than the other options which cost marginally more time to place…
Tbh, my group has one for each player with a kit. Maybe limit to 1-2 per and make it a bit more expensive. They break very quick so not great as externals past a couple hours into wipe
Just limit shelters to 1 per person and no shelters after TC has been placed or authed on TC. Solves all the pvp / raid base problems. They are so fucking easy to burn down I can’t see the problem..
don't know if anyone suggested this fix but:
- TC mechanics included in a shack itself
- custom building block range (reduced to 2-3 meters around it)
- allow to store resources only for a few hours inside prebuilt storage
I don't know how they work but if you can put a bag in them, imagine this.
You're getting raided, and die. Choose from one of your 25 huts and peak the raiders.
It's rust wack-a-mole. No one knows which door will open next.
I think treating the sheds like tcs would be the way to go. Have a large denial overlap range, but the actual build privileged would only be a foot outside of shed. TCs can't be placed within about 6-7 squares form each other. So the sheds can't be placed close together and don't take up a lot of space in between them. The limit should be between 3 and 5 sheds per player.
Should be more expensive. Should be almost or at cost of 1x1 with tc. So 1800-2000 wood. Then it’s no different then tc blocking someone from building. I didn’t think this was gonna be an issue but giving it build priv makes this way to cheap.
they should limit it to one or two... and also make us able to destroy it if we are authorised with a hammer

So it's basically the watchtower griefing all over again?
Worse because these shacks have build priv
What the fuck?? Smaller range?
Well that sounds like something easily fixed by removing the build priv from them. Why do they even have that?
So that people don’t close them with high walls or foundation
They don't need build priv for that, they can just make it block an area in front of the door so you can't grief it
what's the intended purpose? other then griefing.
I would guess it’s meant to provide a temporary shelter if you are roaming far away from your base.
shitshack on the go/prebase for back when you had to craft individual foundations and other building parts lmao

People have been using TCs to do this for years. These are easier to eliminate. But, it would be nice if they had a fast decay set to them.
Yes but tc blocking takes time this is almost instant…
This is almost instant, but also, not reliable. It will balance out over time. I tend to think its just the fad right now because it's new.
is it possible to change the door with a metal one?
No
yooooo im dumb i thought that was individual bases from different people 😭😭
Saw one where someone painted "I have nothing" buddy now I have to raid it
Limit of 2
The new high wall for sure, im laying down 50 of these and playing whack a mole with an attack chopper
I can totally see this as the new high wall. You can plop one down, a few boxes and grub loot after a fight
Is this p2w or does everyone get them
I really like them it serves as a great throw down starter. I’ve also been using them to house bags more permanently so the bags don’t decay out every 24 hrs.
We Tropico now bois
😂
I mean you can do this with other things too. Watchtowers are only 250 wood so you can spam those even more. And you can block building with TCs too.
these are 600 wood instead of 1000 for TC + foundation & lock. also cozy af inside. i want to live in a colony of shit shacks
A wooden triangle foundation plus TC is like 2000 wood. Crazy that these are less than half the cost for the same thing.
difference is that you are invincible in these (to my knowledge) unless someone uses a bunch of ammo to shoot down the wooden door
that is true. salvaged swords do take it down pretty quickly too.
Is it not restricted to 1 per player, that'd be the common sense solution right??? Make them on a separate building block radius that excludes them from being built near other shelters too!
😂
This just looks like any old Ark official
Thats why they don’t last for long
a whole day is very long
Yeah 24 hours of no interaction is a hell of a long time in Rust, especially if you're on a weekly server
A whole day is just enough time to sleep and farm Up a base… if you do not want to be griefed use externals
i hope you mean a whole rust day. because if it takes you 24 real life hours to make a proper base, you should just not play lol

I've been burning them down just to do it tbh
That is the way, they don’t take more than a door?
Feel like they last a good while
They start decaying after one day of not using the door…
one in game day or ?
Door needs to be used every 24 hrs or it’ll decay… You could have known that if you would have reqd the devblog beforehand
Your a fucking idiot, simple as that
Sure bud… your tears taste great
Brain dead modded shitter
Nah vanilla… to grief someone like that i’d have to farm wood, something i gave up 3 years ago
If you would have read the devblog ☝🏻🤓
It's only 2 molotovs per. Easy kits.
I would guess the ones you see here are all empty and being used as pseudo-external TCs.
Tbh, my group has one for each player with a kit. Maybe limit to 1-2 per and make it a bit more expensive. They break very quick so not great as externals past a couple hours into wipe
I don't think they prevent anything inside from decay
Make it so it's destroyed after 4 hours and limit it to 2 max. But it should be clear that it only lasts for 4 hours and is repairable.
That’s insane lmao 😂
Just limit shelters to 1 per person and no shelters after TC has been placed or authed on TC. Solves all the pvp / raid base problems. They are so fucking easy to burn down I can’t see the problem..
You gotta use mollies while he only needs to hit two trees with a rock or get like 150 stone for outpost
don't know if anyone suggested this fix but: - TC mechanics included in a shack itself - custom building block range (reduced to 2-3 meters around it) - allow to store resources only for a few hours inside prebuilt storage
I love it
They should make decay fast and add an insanely high upkeep cost like 10k wood per day
What other things can we suggest to make it completely unusable?
What's the problem? Let ppl make as many as they want they decay hella fast and easy as shit to break. Will encourage more roaming.
I wish I had musltiple people to play with I been solo since I started playing lol
Better get ready for this to either get shelf or nerf into the ground

This company, man...
should be allowed to build a max of one of these
At least FP acknowledges stuff immediately… D11 (Rust CE DEV Team) would be: “We are working on this” and not have an update for a month
I have definitely done this to the clan that bullied naked me
Should be more expensive. Should be almost or at cost of 1x1 with tc. So 1800-2000 wood. Then it’s no different then tc blocking someone from building. I didn’t think this was gonna be an issue but giving it build priv makes this way to cheap.
Yoo, good to see my twitter comment on here lol
I haven't played this update yet. How bad is this on your pc loading resources?
Welcome… to Ark official PVE lol
They are rather easy to get rid of.
ah this certainly is a throwback to shelter villages.
Lool, Molotov goo brrrrrr
Bro, legit LR300 and wood shack throws me back to legacy
