Primitive Rust servers

It runs Facepunch's Primitive game mode, which removes firearms and leaves bows, spears and melee. The server itself can still be official, community or modded on top of that. Rust Going Deep lists a server as primitive when it reports that mode.

The mode is niche, so the whole scene is a handful of busy servers and a long tail of low-pop ones. Europe holds most of the players and North America most of the rest, so pick by ping. A server showing zero now can still fill at its region's evening peak.

Many do, and some wipe only then. Others run biweekly or their own schedule, and a few reset the map every few hours rather than wiping progress. The next wipe column on each row shows the countdown, with a rough estimate marked.

Often, because a small pop means fewer large groups contesting the same monuments. Plenty of these servers leave the group limit at the default, so if you see a solo or trio tag, take it at face value. Check the player count at your usual play time before you settle in.
