This Scrap Generating base will make you RICH! 

what about the mold

materials needed (rounded up): + 13k stone + 5k wood + 1650 metal frags + 240 scrap (assuming you'll use 160 scrap to buy rods at fishing village) The above covers: - building and upgrading - 1x tool cupboard - 5x sheet metal doors - 6x code locks (incl. for tool cupboard) - repair bench - 2x large wood box - chair - diving tank - diving fins - wetsuit - 2x handmade fishing rod * If using the vending machine: (thanks C Wall / Rich 85) - 20 hqm - 3 gears

Of all your videos, this is probably one of my faves. I really dig the compact design, layout, and discreetness of it.

I love how u also gave the other dude credit lots of youtubers don't do that

I've got a ton of fishing hours logged. The trick is... d + Lclick, d + Lclick, a + Lclick, a + Lclick at about 1-2 sec between presses. Stop if your rod is about to break and resume when it's back to normal. This bypasses fish AI and lets you reel in the fish very fast. Just ignore what the fish does on the screen and stick to the pattern.

What an awesome build and props for giving Sigbog a shoutout!!!

Use trout as bait never sell them because it has a 100% chance to catch a salmon or a shark

I love low key strategies like these. My favorite is farming sunken ships in a sub with 3-4 spare scuba tanks that way you almost never have to surface.

Awesome job Reksmore thats so awesome to get all that scrap just from fishing impressive....Keep up the good work

It's truly astounding how easy the internet makes learning these days. Thanks for the tutorial, my guy.

I have actually never played rust but I’m amazed about how many videos I have watched over the years & hundreds of hours with no game hrs

My husband just said, "I guess it isn't really an airlock, is it" XD

Wowwwww... well, I know what I'm doing starting tomorrow! And this just earned a sub!

Great build I'm absolutely loving this as a solo the only change I made was the triangle that you fish in I set another half wall down so I could add a shelf for 2 furnaces above where I fish I tried 3 furnaces but apparently you can't fish directly under a furnace so 2 it is

This works perfect!! Thank you so much! :D

I made this building design inspired by this video and I got so much scrap thank you for the tip keep up the grind

Ive had Rust for years and played like no more than 1 hour during that entire time. 2 weeks ago I had the urge to play and logged 20 hours last week, and logged like 40 hour this week. I mainly played on friendly low population servers just to learn and I must say ive missed out for years 😂

You can fish for sharks while standing on the yellow ladder at the back of the fishing village. No need to build a water base way out there.

Thanks for the vid boss!

This base is genius ! Finally a base that makes more sense to me

Nicely thought out my good man

Thank you so much wipe is later today so I’m preparing but this is definitely gonna help good videos

This defo gonna be in all my wipes

Designing a 2x2 that allows you to catch fish, grow crops, refine oil and holds a boat - THIS would be an awesome addition.

This is amazing, I am a player who would do this. I like my peace of mind & I don't kill everything that moves, otherwise PvP would be the alternative. tyvm for sharing

Dude I've been keeping skulls in my Tc for 4 wipes now and haven't been raided once. The skull God has been blessing me

Great idea man

Hey man. Thx it's work! :) I builded little fishing house at center Abandoned Cabins.

Excellent thanks.

Aw man, this is gonna give me so much competition for building a fishing village! I was doing this already and would just fish, buying any materials I needed from Outpost or setting up a vending machine at base trading scrap for mats. I could get the entire T1 and T2 tech trees done in about 10 hours of just fishing and watching RU-vid with nearly no hassle from anyone else

very talented teacher - cheers

I've built this in Console and it works fine. The only issue I have is that it's almost impossible to get close enough to open the repair bench without falling in the water. I've resigned myself to just putting down a triangle twig floor every time I need to reach the bench then demolishing it after..... cheap enough. Other than that, it's good. I didn't put the above-water doors on though... just use the underwater entrance. I don't see much point in putting in the internal walls to honeycomb it though as the base is vulnerable (single wall) all up one end (where you cast into) and also the roof square. May as well leave the internal walls down and have the extra space. Bloody boring though, spending all that time in a stone prison just fishing... fishing... fishing... Still, it serves a purpose and if it gets me all the BPs until the next BP wipe, it's worth the tedium.

Just tried this on a river on the test branch on console it works! If you don’t wanna do the scuba thing and be more inland then the river is for you you just have to put the triangle first above the water a bit and then the square and your good

great idea, logged into a server to try it out but think I may have been a little over ambitious ended up a little deep was 15 walls down....... ;-(

Thanks for the superb fishing base! I ended up doing a 2x1 with the triangle extension to place a workbench. I was just farming scrap for bp/s.

Hey man next make a fully secure base on the water, incorporating the underwater entrance!

I fished up 470 scrap yesterday at fishing village. When night time came, i snuck out to my base thats 4 tiles away. I slapped doen a t2 workbench. As a solo on official server.... It was a good feeling.

100% will try. far less risky than trying to solo fish underwater labs

Made this base turning it to 3x1 so it has 3 fishing bays for a trio. Lanterns,boombox, lights all around.. probably the best rust experience we’ve had 😂. Is it worth keeping salmon for scrap too?

good work and thank you so much, Greetings from Egypt

Sounds like you could do good in 90s wire tv shop commercials selling the next generation razor blades

I havent played in months, but I would catch sharks at the fishing village all the time and its a safe zone. I did the whole tech tree on scrap from sharks.

It's enough to build 1.5 walls deep. Just place foundation as high as possible deep in the water that u'll have 1full underwater. It'll take less materials for the same purpose.

very nice take on sogbogs concept

I never built a base with scrap...need to try that

3:38 where he missed the two jums dude i almost died if that part.

bless u reks

I have been looking for something different to do in Rust. I decided to sub and try this

“Or you just refuse to participate in that prim life”

Bout to try this out.

The most introverted way to play, I like it.

Congrats ! I started right before covid when the recession Nice tutorialt. I held those stocks and made a killing. I bought dividend stocks and made a

It would probaly be smarter to keep the top without doors and upgraded to metal at least. It will force the raiders to use hammers to raid your doors underwater (or use C4). Satchels dont work underwater. If you make 4 triangles on top with turrets and middle having 1 more box square up + windmill, you can also loot any players that pass by the turrets as a bonus. Also instead of a door to tc, you can place a metal window, increasing the raid cost.

So glad I watched this as a noob whose only built like 5 terrible bases. I unlocked all the weapons in tier 1-2 within 6 hours of total gameplay/fishing. It’s only day 1.5 on my server too 😁

Note: you can catch all types of fish simply at fishing village dock in the safe zone. Bait is easy too if you know how to manage a fishing rod. Corn, pumpkin, worm or grub. Which all can be found on the way to fishing village. I'm excellent at the ocean. If I fish average is 900 scrap per rod. If I dive 45 mins yields an inventory of comps and around 800 scrap. Enjoy or find you a farmer like me to secure comps, scrap and materials for upkeep. Js it's that simple without any frustration.

for what is the vending machine?

Has this been patched out? I can't get the bobber to turn blue under building pieces.

Damn... You just gave our secrets away... Now everyone is just gonna build at fishing village.

Scrap helped me build a 2x2 shell wide gap peaks sheet metal base in 2 days

I like to make bank with Low Grade and selling that for profit using the vending machines. I setup one vending machine that accepts Crude Oil for Low Grade, and another for accepting Wood for Low Grade, and have at least 8+ Refineries or more as your production scales, and just watch the Low Grade stockpile up until you have enough in excess to sell for scrap, and if you're lucky maybe drop off 6 slot stacks of low grade at a monument that has a Oil Digger that gives you Crude Oil and you'll be raking in so much Crude Oil to turn into Low Grade. I doubt many people even utilize these Oil Diggers at monuments, especially at places like Water Treatment up on the hill where the big water towers are.

Nice one :)

So glad I watched this! My girlfriend loves fishing in rust, but I’ve never known enough about it to make it profitable. Going to lay a base like this down right now!

Tbh thats how i do my start since it came out, even bevore it got meta.. you can do it in Bandit in the Safezone for freshwater fish. Making ist only Like 1k-1,2k per h but in the safezone

Great idea to ensure you get alot of scrap but i can get about 1200 scrap from one launch site run w/o card area after recycling.

use full walls at the top to fit more utility

Its.....Its beautiful.........

Consider making the base at night in one go, or at least get the tc pillar to stone and lock it immediately. I tried to do a twig structure first then grab the stone and upgrade, but a hazzy with a db was camping the inside and was blessed with two rows of stone that day. What a play 😅

I have a technic if u go to outpost you can farm road signs and buy a db and get the blueprint

Modded servers don usually have them at high prices

Bro made the Minecraft AFK fish farm.

I'm not sure if it's still a thing as I haven't played Rust in a while, but you should be able to put another Box inside the repair bench.

Damn this is gonna be hard on console rust😂 I’m still going to do it

Partially submerged foundation fish traps below and farm up top for the win.

Interesting video. What is this pea suit or pea soup you reference at the end? Subbed.

lol man, i yust tried that, it is isane, thanks G. Your LEGEND

Me, the whole time I'm doing this: "Baby shark do do do do do do, baby shark do do do do do do..."

This is cool and all but like... you can just fish at fishing village and have a 2x1 right next door. idk it's what I've done

Don’t worry grubs. I’ll be looking for your bases right next to fishing village.

if are you on a modded server that has recyclers at fishing village or there's a recycler nearby then you could add a comp farm and make passive scrap while you fish or just for comps to have. Just add some extra foundations at the bottom, put wall frames on them 2 high and netting and it will collect comps over time. (Just don't enclose it)

Having to play video at slower speed, because you go to fast on the bottom build to see it very well. Great help in any case.

Usually selling salmon to are good

With last patch still works? I've tried to make a 1x3 with 4 wall of depth, but i can't fishing

I think they should put pier prefabs in the BP

Just used this guide! I really like the outcome. Now, I just need to find bait. Thank you!

Dancing fruit? You must have a baby 👶 it's a life saver lol

like I've fishing without the ice lol

Thank You, Tetragrammaton!

decent concept

only a vanilla server feature alot of modded server seems to prevent you from getting sharks at 10 bait.

wow this is op

New to rust - LOVE your videos, but man, it'd be so cool if you could include the resources required for the base/doors+tc just hard to know how to do this, build servers typically give you unlimited stuff (from what i've seen) so it's hard to figure out.

Thats A TON of mats to put together a base before you're going to die. Just not possible

hope someone makes a trapbase using this design, imagine raiding thinking you'll get tons of scrap 💀

because its hard doesn't make it impossible! Stay safe!

You can just... fish inside fishing village.... inside a safe zone...

Great idea! However i would liked it more if you showed us a starter base first with campfire / water purifer and a fishing start and than expand that base into the water for shark fishing. The way this is shown is kinda unrealistic for a solo player without some idea what to do first and how much this costs. If this is possible with two bases connected with two TC's that would be next level. You can even add a subpen or boat house.

I'm having a brutal time getting this thing built. The drop off of the terrain is too steep around the fishing village to be able to connect the 5 foundations one at half height from the next. Any suggestions for improvisations or modifications?

I tried this and is the chair a requirement? I wasn't able to cast within the space and adjusted by making the fishing pool 1 block larger

I will use this on thursday wipe

How did you demolish foundations underwater while still having new pieces out?
