these are a list of weapons i think would fit the game pretty well and not all of them are direct rust copies
#new weapon ideas
bleak fulcrum
1 the compound bow while it is in rust its also in other games and would be an upgrade to the traditional bow and would do more damage and have to be pulled back farther.
2 different arrow types like poisen arrows that do poisen damage or metal arrows that do extra damage
3 the spear obviously its in rust but it would be a good idea for an early game weapon
hexed basalt
A spear is intended to be added at some point! I really like the idea of the compound bow, I think it would be cool to have an upgraded version. I like the idea of having something that deals higher damage while still be quiet compared to a gun
bleak fulcrum
4 a dart gun this would be a mid tier item like the compound bow but more expensive to make it would fire darts that could be used to slow enemies and maybe mess with the way they can do things like the barbed wire from the high walls and would be loaded like the shotgun but with stranquilizer darts
5 bear traps they would work like a bear trap where you can place them down and youd have to set them to make them active when a player steps in an active bear trap it would damage them and slow them almost completly for 7- 10 or so secounds and would have to be reset in order to trap again.

Ya but aming and reloding is kinda booty right now
bleak fulcrum
practice🥱
hybrid temple
not sure how the compound bow will stack up with current balancing
guns are already insanely easy to obtain, and bows are already really good
safe snow
You could be able to add attachments on a compound bow wich I know we don't need but it would still be cool
bleak fulcrum
guns are already insanely easy to obtain, and bows are already really good
mabey they make bows weaker and compound bows stronger the farther they pull them back
like imagine that the bow works the same and just not as much damage
hybrid temple
i mean i dont really see the point with it just being a better bow
bleak fulcrum
and the compound bow you could add like sights or some shit and it can be pulled back farther and would shoot faster and harder then the normal bow
hybrid temple
ofc a buffed bow, but in rust its unique, i dont see the worth in putting in the effort to make a better bow when it could be used to other more impactful features
bleak fulcrum
i guess
hybrid temple
the bow is already really good, a nerf would be fine, but a new bow thats even better then the current bow would seem broken
its just the way rust does comp bow is balanced, but that wouldnt translate to vr very well imo
though the sights would be cool
bleak fulcrum
mabey instead you could put upgrades on the bow itself
hybrid temple
yeah maybe
bleak fulcrum
instead of having an entirly new bow
hybrid temple
sights would be dope, maybe some sort of velocity increase upgrade aswell
like rusts HV arrows
bleak fulcrum
you could replace the string with a stronger one

bleak fulcrum
your welcome
hybrid temple
real
nah but i would like to see a dart gun
another thing u suggested very epic
bc we dont have a db in this game, something you can reload like a DB would be nice
bleak fulcrum
yeah i think there could be more thought put into it other than just being the ark dart gun but
hybrid temple
ofc, but the idea is nice
maybe its mag fed? so a high firerate but lower damage
could be a low tier weapon for closer range that can shoot alot faster
rusts nailgun type stuff
bleak fulcrum
water pipe
mabey the darts are just for like poisen or some shit and make it hard to see
idk
royal elk
if a variety or new armors are added new weapons would fit in the game better right?
bleak fulcrum
yeah but comming up with new armours more boring anyway
formal arch
We lowk need another armor set and like nail gun would be cool
And another shotgun would be cool but i understand they got other shit
safe snow
We lowk need another armor set and like nail gun would be cool
Bro where not tryna copy rust but we do need another Armour set
Bullet proof vests and leggings
Harder to make and to find than any other armor

yes its in RUST but i would say lets have one with different mechanics its actually a raiding tool and a close to mid range weapon. Your highly vulnerable with it one or two hits to the back and boom up it goes taking out people nearby. As a raiding tool it sets wood on fire for damage over time , does nothing to stone but against metal it does 0 damage however people inside start to take heat damage within a certain radius so it would force campers out adding a strategic but risky benefit to taking one raiding oh and it burns down high wood walls. Fuelled by Fat from animals that has been refined. Can also be an excellent counter raid tool clever base designers might have wooden floor sections inside to set alight to deter raiders or blasts of the fire when prefiring around a corner blocks the sight of the attackers and sets them on fire
Having one in your inventory shows on the back and is targetable protect ze flammenwerfer!
Fired in proximity to metal armour - slows movement speed , wood armour - catches fire careful placement of the flame guy needed
can make fire resistant armour to aid its use
strange kayak
Just add fire
safe snow
yes its in RUST but i would say lets have one with different mechanics its actua...
It could melt through metal and burn through wood
safe snow
No but like it would take like an hour

That’s still better than eco raiding

you have given me an idea

Ok
