Stump

The Stump is a key resource in the survival game Rust, often found scattered across the game's vast and varied terrain. Players can identify a stump by its cut-off tree appearance, typically shorter than the full trees in the game. By approaching a stump and pressing the use button (default 'E'), players can harvest a small amount of wood, which is an essential material for building structures, crafting tools, and creating fires for warmth and cooking. These stumps are not a static feature and will respawn randomly across the map, providing players with an ongoing supply of wood.

Gathering wood from stumps is quite efficient and less time-consuming than chopping down full-sized trees, making it an attractive option for players who need wood quickly. However, the amount of wood obtained is less than what players would get from chopping trees, so it's important to balance the need for speed versus the need for larger quantities of wood. Stumps can be crucial for survival, especially when players are starting out, have limited tools, or are in a hurry to build defenses against other players or wildlife. Always keep an eye out for stumps as you explore, and ensure you have enough wood on hand for your survival needs.

Remember that other players can harvest stumps as well, so if you're playing on a server with high competition for resources, you'll want to collect them quickly. Also, consider the strategic importance of leaving stumps behind in areas you may wish to return to for future resources. Balancing immediate need with long-term resource management is a key aspect of mastering Rust's survival challenges.
