Candle Hat

The Candle Hat in Rust is a wearable light source that players can equip on their heads. It provides illumination in dark areas, making it useful for tasks such as base expansion or night-time mining. Although the Candle Hat doesn't offer significant protective benefits, it can be combined with a bandana for a slight defense boost. Be cautious during combat, especially in the dark, as the light can reveal your position to enemies. For better strategic play, it's advisable to switch off the Candle Hat to avoid becoming an easy target.

As a quick tip, always carry extra low-grade fuel to keep the Candle Hat lit for extended periods, and remember to take advantage of the added visibility it provides when organizing your base or venturing into pitch-black caves. Just ensure you're aware of your surroundings, as the flickering flame can attract unwanted attention from other players.
