RUST July 2021 update adds new wounding system

The players have been eagerly waiting for this update so here it comes and it comes with a whole new surprise for you.


For those of you who don’t know what RUST is, it is a multiplayer survival video game and unlike other survival games, it has some very stunning graphics.


It is a survival game so obviously, everything in the game is trying to kill you but outside the game developers are trying to save you, so let’s see how exactly.


New wounding system.


In the older version of the game, the player was going into a fully incapacitated state which means you were completely helpless and can’t do anything. This state comes when you are attacked by other players and you got 0 hp left.


Instead of going into that state now, there is a whole new crawling state in which players are given a chance to save themselves. They can move around slowly and can use doors.


You also get a bit more health compared to the previous state. This allows you to move to safety instead of being helpless.


But their are some situations in which you can still go to the previous incapacitated state i.e.


  • If you die from a fall.

  • If you crawl too deep into the water.

  • If while crawling you get looted by other players.

So you still have to be careful.


Increased chance to recover.


With the whole new crawling state, the developers have also increased the chances of recovery after the timer runs out.


So the base value of recovery is 20% chance while crawling and 10% chance while incapacitated. But now you get a bonus of 25% with that base value based on your food and water levels. Maximum food and water mean maximum bonus so keeping that in mind, start eating and drinking water more while you still can.


You still aren’t satisfied don’t worry there is more.


So let’s say you don’t have maximum value for food and water don’t worry their is still something that can give you a 100% chance of recovery and that is if you have a large medkit in your belt (not just your inventory), the medkit will be used but instead of getting any health,  you will be recovered from being wounded.


But there are some exception, that you will still get killed if you take damage while wounded and the medkit will not revive you if you knock yourself out from fall damage.


So jump out of the helicopter only if you want to die because the medkit is not going to revive you.


That’s about it for this article, if you have any doubts feel free to ask us as we are always here to help. You can also refer to this link for full information about the update.


See you in the next one till then keep surviving.
