Ironvale Duo/Trio

What Ironvale is

Ironvale is a vanilla-rate duo and trio server on a 3,000-size map that wipes every Thursday. Small map plus small teams plus weekly resets makes for the fastest cycle in the listing: you can realistically start on wipe day, run a couple of raids and be finished with the wipe by Sunday.

Nothing is modded. Gather rates, smelt speeds, loot tables and decay are all stock Facepunch values.

What makes it different

• Weekly wipes, no blueprint carry. Everybody starts from tier zero every Thursday, which keeps the skill gap about play, not about hours banked.
• Duos and trios only. Group limit three, enforced through the same authorisation tracking most serious servers use.
• A small map on purpose. Three thousand size means you find people. Nobody is farming undisturbed in a corner for two days.
• Vanilla means vanilla. No quick smelt, no kits, no shop, no VIP queue skipping.

The rules

• Maximum three players. Roaming with a fourth, even briefly, counts.
• No cheating, scripting or macros, and no "my brother was on my account."
• No monument camping with automatic turrets. Roof camping Oil Rig is fine; that is the game.
• No building in a way that blocks monument puzzles or safe zone entrances.
• Toxicity in voice is tolerated up to a point; slurs are not.

How to connect

Open the console with F1 and enter client.connect eu.ironvale.net:28015, or filter the official server browser to vanilla and search the name. Wipe is Thursday at 18:00 CET with the map seed posted in Discord an hour before. If you are new to Rust, this is a harder starting point than a 2x — the Rust server list has gentler options.
