Tips for Cheating in Rust
Admin Detection and Avoidance
IP Address Tracking:
- Battlemetrics: Tracks player IPs and links accounts. Shared data among admins means IPs can reveal linked accounts across servers. Rust admins can see every name and every IP/region the account has logged in with through Battlemetrics.
- IP Ranges and Traceroutes: Avoid using multiple fresh accounts from the same IP range in a short time. Traceroutes can increase the likelihood of detecting ban evasion. Changing DNS servers can alter your route.
- VPNs: Use residential IPs to avoid detection. Some servers ban VPN users due to shared IPs.
- Frequently Circulated IPs: Tether your cell phone or use heavily trafficked VPNs. If you must use a VPN and can't find good residential VPNs that aren't burned, stick to official servers. If you are on an IP a cell phone is using or a VPN that 100s of people are using you can try to get lost in numbers
Profile Management
- Aged Accounts: Use accounts with legitimate playtime and activities. Avoid fresh accounts and purchased accounts with ghosted hours.
- Steam Details: Use different avatars, friends, and groups to avoid detection. Make profiles look legit by joining Steam groups, using multiple names, and hiding your inventory.
- Region Consistency: Purchase accounts from the same region to avoid suspicion. Accounts showing sudden region changes raise red flags.
- Avoid Sequential IDs: Websites selling cheap game accounts create them in bulk, resulting in similar SteamIDs. Admins can track these patterns to identify groups of accounts created for ban evasion or cheating.
Playstyle Tips
- Legit Playstyle: Play the first 20 hours legitimately. Die often, miss shots, and monitor your KD/stats.
- Avoid Obvious Cheating: Use high smoothing aimbot, avoid taking on multiple opponents, and die occasionally to seem legit. Avoid using semi-rage features and features with a history of being detected, such as admin flags, no clip, debug, thick bullet, spiderman, and flying hacks. The cheat itself can be undetected by EAC, but some features are not as secure as others.
- Stat Monitoring: Keep headshot rates and K/D ratios within normal ranges. EAC likely gives higher weight to stats from official servers.
- Legitimate Activity: Mix legitimate gameplay with your cheating. Participate in community events, help other players, and avoid always being the top performer.
- Stealth Mode: Use cheats that offer a stealth mode, which reduces the risk of detection by limiting the cheat’s functionality to only the essential features.
- Server Selection: Avoid servers known for having active and vigilant admins. Choose less popular servers with fewer monitoring resources.
Avoiding Reports
- Temp Bans: EAC issues 3-day bans for suspicious stats. These temp bans are managed through an AI anticheat known as Cerberus. Play cautiously initially to avoid these.
- Shared Data: Servers share ban information and IPs, leading to bans on multiple servers.
- Pattern Detection: Avoid playing with the same friends from different regions simultaneously, as this can raise suspicion. Avoid returning to the same half-dozen servers, going straight to an old base, using the same skins, and replicating the same base designs.
Admin Tools and Plugins
- Arkan: Detects features like no spread, silent aim, and low recoil. Admin notifications are opinion-based.
- Galium Anti-Cheat: Combined with Battlemetrics, tracks in-game hours, combat logs, and detects various violations.
- Stash Traps: Plugin to catch cheaters using ESP.
- Admin Vanish: Makes admins invisible to ESP users.
- Projectiles Tracker: Tracks gun trajectories, revealing silent aim and fast hit cheats.
- RustDB: Admin panel with shared ban databases and monitoring tools.
- Recoil Hud: Shows your recoil pattern to admins.
Discord and Community Monitoring
- Avoid Linking Discord: Do not link your Discord to servers to prevent tracking. If you must link to Discord, do not use an account created the same day the Rust account saw Battlemetrics. This is a significant red flag. Consider buying Discord accounts in bulk, as they are cheap, or be patient and join Discord after a couple of weeks of playtime.
- Join Communities with Alts: Use alternative accounts to join scripting-related Discords to avoid detection.
Tips for Choosing Providers
- Ask Questions: Verify the longevity, originality, and user feedback of the provider.
- Recent Proof: Look for recent, verifiable proof of undetection.
- Custom Builds: Use custom or private cheats rather than public ones. Public cheats are more likely to be detected and result in bans.
Residential VPNs
- Mysterium Dark: A known residential VPN.
- ResiVPN: Another reliable residential VPN.
