What is a Rust roleplay server?

A roleplay server adds rules and stories on top of Rust. Players often create characters and join towns or factions. Killing on sight is usually against the rules. Most are modded and flagged PvE.

Are Rust roleplay servers PvE?

Most are. A majority of the servers on this list carry the PvE tag, meaning combat between players is restricted or disabled outside events. Some allow PvP in set zones or hours. Check each server's rules before you pick a home.

How do I join a roleplay server in Rust?

Open the in-game server browser, search for the name, and connect. Many servers ask you to read their rules first, usually on Discord. Some require a whitelist or character application. Look for the server's website or Discord for details.

What rules are common on Rust roleplay servers?

No random killing, no metagaming, no griefing, and staying in character in public chat. Offline raiding may be banned. Admins enforce rules through plugins and moderation. Breaking them can get you banned.
