Rust wipe schedule
Every server wipes at the monthly force wipe, and many wipe again on a day and hour they choose themselves. The patterns below come from wipes recorded on public servers, not from what owners advertise. The busiest wipe day is currently Thursday. Times are UTC unless stated. Last refreshed a few minutes ago; the countdown runs live on our force wipe page.

Restarts are left out: a new map less than six hours after the last counts as the same wipe. Times are UTC: UK time is the same in winter and an hour ahead in summer; US East is five hours behind in winter and four in summer.

Questions
3 answeredWhen do Rust servers wipe?
Every server wipes at the force wipe on the first Thursday of each month, when Facepunch ships the game update. Between force wipes each owner picks a rhythm, usually weekly, biweekly or monthly. The heatmap on this page shows the days and hours those wipes actually happen.
What is the difference between a map wipe and a blueprint wipe?
A map wipe clears the world: bases, loot and everything built on it. A blueprint wipe also clears what you have learned to craft. Most servers map-wipe on their own schedule and hold blueprint wipes to the force wipe, or skip them; the server description says which it uses.
What time of day do most wipes happen?
Usually an evening in the server's home region, so players are online for the fresh start. European servers tend to wipe in the early evening UTC, North American ones later. The heatmap above shows the hours recorded from live data, not claimed schedules.
