Log

Rust's Log item is a fundamental resource gathered from trees, primarily used as a building material and for crafting in the survival game Rust. Logs are obtained using tools like a rock or an axe when a player hits a tree. They are essential for creating a base, as logs are converted into wooden planks, which are then used to construct walls, floors, and other structures. Furthermore, logs are important in crafting items such as weapons, tools, and furnaces, making them a universally valuable resource in the game.

When collecting logs, using more advanced tools like the hatchet or chainsaw will increase your harvesting efficiency. Not only do these tools gather logs faster, but they also yield more logs per tree. It's important for players to keep a supply of logs handy for maintaining and upgrading their base, as well as fueling campfires and furnaces. Conservation of logs is also key in Rust, as excessive deforestation can lead to resource scarcity. Players should plan their resource gathering and usage carefully to survive and thrive within the game's harsh environment.
