โ Frequently Asked Questions
How much sulfur is needed to craft 1 Rocket and 1 C4 in Rust?
One Rocket costs exactly 1,400 Raw Sulfur (650 Gunpowder + 10 Explosives = 1,400 Sulfur), 1,950 Charcoal, 2 Pipes, and 100 Low Grade Fuel. One Timed Explosive Charge (C4) requires 2,200 Raw Sulfur (1,000 Gunpowder + 20 Explosives = 2,200 Sulfur), 3,000 Charcoal, 200 Low Grade Fuel, and 2 Tech Trash.
What is the most sulfur-efficient way to raid a Garage Door?
Raiding a Garage Door costs 9 Satchel Charges (4,320 Sulfur), 3 Rockets (4,200 Sulfur), 2 C4 (4,400 Sulfur), or 150 Explosive 5.56 Ammo (3,750 Sulfur). Explosive 5.56 with a silencer is mathematically the cheapest sulfur option (3,750 sulfur), while 3 Rockets allows splash damage against neighboring walls and doors.
How many rockets or C4 does it take to destroy a Stone Wall or Sheet Metal Wall?
A Stone Wall has 500 HP and requires exactly 4 Rockets (5,600 Sulfur) or 2 C4 (4,400 Sulfur). A Sheet Metal Wall has 1,000 HP and requires 8 Rockets (11,200 Sulfur) or 4 C4 (8,800 Sulfur). Note that C4 is significantly cheaper in sulfur than rockets against pure single walls.
Does soft side vs hard side raiding affect explosive damage?
No. Explosives (Rockets, C4, Satchels, and Explosive Ammo) deal identical damage regardless of whether they hit the hard side or the soft side of building elements. Soft-side vulnerability only applies to melee weapons (pickaxes, spears, jackhammers).
