Bandage

Bandages in Rust are essential medical items that players can craft and use to stop bleeding and regain a portion of health. Typically, bandages are a player's first line of defense against bleeding out after an encounter. They are accessible because their main component, hemp, can be easily found scattered across the game's map. Players often use multiple bandages sequentially, especially when higher-tier medical supplies are unavailable, making them an important resource for survival and health management.

Creating bandages requires 20 cloth, which can be gathered from hemp plants or recycled from various cloth-based items. Once crafted, a single bandage can heal a player for 5 health points. Due to their lightweight and stackable nature, players are advised to carry several of these in their inventory, ensuring they have enough to recover from multiple engagements or accidents. Although not as effective as larger medical kits for healing, bandages are more affordable and readily available, making them perfect for quick fixes in emergency situations.

A strategic tip for players is to always have bandages handy during exploration or combat, as the ability to quickly stop bleeding can mean the difference between life or death in Rust. Moreover, learning the map to identify hemp-rich areas can ensure a steady supply of cloth for bandage production. Remember, bandages may not fully restore your health, but they are a vital component in any player's survival toolkit.
