UPDATE NOTES: the colliders of vending machines have changed. They need to be placed close together in the center & facing the front towards you. and then be rotated. Test the details on a build server before using this in game. By "placed close together", I mean as in this video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eZhnaL2bz5mrp3k.html Unfortunately, this means that you won't be able to place the half-height triangle as makeshift shelf -> you will lose storage.

Not sure how I missed the notification for this video but using the vending machines to turn glass window from 4 to 8 rockets is fantastic, will definitely try and incorporate this somewhere, amazing.

ver. 1 was so good that raiders stopped attacking after third failed raid... my neighbour told me over voice chat that they though it's a trap base and just left after opening first lootroom. So thank you for version 2! :)

Calm voice, not trying to be "entertaining", actually great content well cut, good tempo, useful remarks. Your vids rocks! Consider making videos about electricity, theres so much to know and mechanics that are hard to find explained like in rust building, having videos of optimized circuits like your bases would be godsend!

3 years.. and im still building this base every single time

Thanks for adding in the quick tips throughout the vid. Like tool costs to break wood and diving fins for placing deployables.

Yeeeees! I've been using version one for months now and it's got me through quite a few wiped un-raided. Cant wait to try this version!

The floating sheet metal wall at 14:50, the "separator" prevents the use of splash damage to break into both loot chutes at the same time.

I literally don't own rust but this is really interesting. I'm impressed at how much efficiency you can squeeze out of such a small footprint. Nice work!

Wow this was literally my first "big" Base i built ever in Rust. The good old days. Thank you Evil for this masterpiece. I hope you will come back to us one day ❤️

I just started the game and this is literally the first base I’ve ever built, it’s an honour to start my journey with the frustrator

I love that first design. I modified it many different ways. Great design. For me it survived a 3 against 1 raid for 3 hours. Then they ran out of rockets and bullets and got no loot. lol. I liked the original entrance you could modify it to become a half hieght hall they had to crouch through to get into the base from that angle. This meant they had to jump up to crawl over a foundation piece then a steel floor plate and jump down into a pit that had shot gun traps under the steel floor plate. Most raiders don't opt to go in through the door anyway. The most important thing in this design is getting those shotgun traps in the loot rooms to cover the drop down.

Nice work my friend! You are one of the most creative people in the rust community!! It's insane how you can always come up with such good and elegant bases! im jealous!

Considering I lived out of one of these in the past, I appreciate the remake Mr Sausage man!

Not sure if you still read KZfaq comments, but just want to say even 3 years later I still build this base. The upkeep to protection ratio is fantastic. Also it does not matter where they raid from, it's going to be an equal cost to get all the loot.

Look's very good, i love all your frustrator designs)

Omg I love how it tells you what he’s doing when you try to skip time it helps so much!

Was recently door raided with mini-frustrator 1. They just gave up before they even got into the loot rooms. Thanks for your designs!

Picked Rust back up after several years off. Found this video researching base designs. This base still slaps!!!

Offline raiding is a major problem in rust and you are helping make it a little more endurable. Thank you.

omfg I've been waiting for this update forever ilysm wurst :)

The mini frustrator was my favorite base, and now it's made even better. Great job! :D

this is my go to base and has been for years, started to watch this again since uni break is coming up and i need my base design again :)

4 years later and I still come back to the video to re-build this amazing base from time to time. One of the best bases on Rust (and Rust Console which is the version I play).

just a tip u can honeycomb the Tc on on top & place garage doors That will mess upp the mini hanger but thats fine i just build one more floor up for the mini hanger & secound advice u can place bear rugs or normal rugs on the ladder & they will be hidden!

I was waiting for this for so long, for you to revisit mini frustrator, my favourite base of all time

Currently living out of one of these in the wilds of Rustified, and I can’t tell you how much I appreciate the fact that this (like a lot of your designs) can grow with you and still does a great job at living up to it’s name. So glad the new building changes didn’t mess with this one.

Man, this base, when you learn to build it fast, is really a comfy and usable for a solo wipe.

This monster got me unraided for the 3rd week now keep the good work my dude

Thank you for this beautiful creation, I know I'll be using this next wipe! I would love to see more solo/duo bases like this.

I never bothered to look at base designs as a solo player, I just made my base on the go without thinking much. Seeing you say it takes 20 rockets for tc and 26 rockets for EACH loot room just basically gave me a reaction of "wtf how is that possible, it's so small" Guess I'll build this from now on. Thank you!

The step by step instructions are so good. It makes following along in vanilla so much easier. Too many people just fly around in creative mode and start from sheet metal, assuming they can clip through walls and fly. I've been locked inside my own base too many times following other instructional base building videos. Just build this as a solo and it's so satisfying.

This was the first base I ever built when rust came to console

How did I miss this video?! This is my favourite base.

Just got through last wipe on the console beta using this. Raided twice, but one was just a few c4. Second one came with rockets and was defeated by the placement of the t3 workbench. No one got anywhere near the secondary loot room, let alone tc. GG, mate.

So happy to have you back and making videos to help new players. The ideas that come from you and the community you have created around discord is truly phenomenal and has helped entirely revolutionize the way rust players approach base building.

how tf are you making these videos so fast? Please take my respects!

Started building this after living in the mini fort for too long. Glad I'm not getting raided day 1 anymore

I rarely ever find base design videos as well made as yours. Really easy to understand, and good pacing.

Back again. I've built this base so many times, I can build it without watching the video, and I've successfully adapted it to my needs. Even as a solo, the base allows me to work up an impressive haul and progress efficiently thru the wipe.

This guy's voice, I spent days trying to realize who it sounded like and I decided it sounds like radioactive man in the Simpsons.

Another masterpiece by our rust master!

I’m running a sorta scuffed version of this for the first time on a high pop solo server right now! Honestly it’s my new fav and I will definitely build this again and again! Clutch content as usual! Thanks for this GEM! 💎

everytime i see a new video on your channel i feel extremely satisfied because i know i will be a fantastic video featuring absolutely perfect base and also a good mic, thank you so much for making these!!!

For those wondering. The base is no longer viable for the vending machine tc. Unfortunately for the building community they have patched and fixed the way you can currently place vending machines into harder and less condensed locations

I liked the video even before it started

Note- if you want a shooting floor, just add a ladder hatch up to the top and surround it with windows. The shooting floor adds a nice aesthetic to the build.

The narration, the music. this is the only asmr that matters.

I used a lot the mini frustrator for my wipes and I loved it but I'll maybe try this one too ;) I love your builds continue like this.

How many Shotgun Traps do you want? Evil Wurst: Yes

You are one of the most thoughtful and thorough base builders in this game. You think of EVERYTHING... so much so that whenever i build a base, i call it Evil's base and not mine. I don't change a thing. It has saved me through many a wipes. Thanks dude. Keep building.

This base design got me farther than I've ever been in Rust on my server's last wipe. I went from barely getting my 2x2 to stay safe and unraided to essentially hoarding stacks, weaponry, and armor, and I was soloing right up until today, the last day before the BP wipe on my server. This morning, another noob and I were the only people logged onto the server. He asked for help, and I led him to your channel. We ended up teaming up and, thanks to my hoard of weaponry and armor, successfully raided the oil rig together. I did make a few mistakes, though. I accidentally put the right vending machine too close to the doorway, so I wasn't able to put a garage door in front of the TC lootroom. I mitigated that by putting a locked triangle drop hatch above the lootroom. I put another triangle drop hatch as the doorway to the roof access point from the main level. Also, since I was solo, I didn't need a locker in the central triangle room between the work bench and the furnaces, so I put a flame turret there. I placed heartbeat sensors in the room with the workbench and in the room with the furnaces. The sensors were connected to smart alarms. The doors to the triangle room with the flame turret were both connected to smart switches. If I got an alert that an intruder was in the wings, I would hit the corresponding door control, which would expose the intruder to a flame turret. Unfortunately or fortunately, only one person ever tried to raid my base, and he gave up in the outer honeycomb. I plan on building this and other designs of yours in upcoming wipes. You're the best, E.W.! Thanks for making Rust more fun for me!

Good vid mate, keep it up :) I will definitely try that base

The best rust builder in the whole planet. I hope you remember me from like 4 months ago with my other channel Random Pixel Guy. I Still love your content.

Watching your videos keeps me happy even i dont play rust for a long time

Awesome Base, after playing some wipes with 4-5 people in your Frustrator X this is a great option for duo and trio wipes. Gonna test this today! Keep up with the vids man, you're the best builder i've found on youtube and it's always kinda easy to follow your steps. Greetings from a fellow German.

Evil, thanks for the base I finally have it completed. We are a TRIO playing on a TRIO server. I have made some changes (not sure if they are improvements) where I put 5 furnaces over half walls right after you go up the slanted roof (2 fit next to the roof and 3 fit on the other triangle. I also used that to set teslas as defense in between the furnaces and I made some major electrical upgrades. One of my teammates says we should metal frag the whole firsdt floor but we are over 1 week into wipe and 0 attempts at raiding so far so.... thanks

Yo this base is awesome, my first time trying it and me and my friend defended a 2v5. They failed raiding it 2 times LMAO

I've been using this base design for about 2 weeks now, I got raided once, which failed. This base design is great, not only in terms of how expensive it is to raid, but also in terms of living space and comfort. Great job man!

When I saw that you opened a new channel for improving the base, I was seriously surprised. I didn't think it could get any better than it was. You proved me VERY wrong.

update* for square halfwall honeycomb you can put a ramp on it then seal

Me: sees this base in a server Greedy Me: hehe good loot Sensible Me: *RUN* That’s how much of a reputation this base has gotten for being so frustrating.

I love this base! Though I can understand why you had trouble finding improvements on the old one. The vendingmachines are a huge plus, but I'd argue that adding turrets and roofaccess for a minicopter only makes the base more of a raidtarget. Build this base without a flashy roof and you're all set!

Evil, not sure if you still read these or get notifications but just want to say you are sorely missed sir. Hope you and the family are well.

Good morning evil! I love your base designs for almost 3 years now, I just wanted to ask that should I build a starter base before building this base or should I start constructing this one?

You are the Morgan Freeman of Rust

Thanks Evil Wurst i started playing rust when this video was a few days old. After my 2x2 was raided i need something better and god i think i lucked out clicking on this video. I been raided only the once. They never got tc and i killed one of them. Got some upgrades from him and they only got to one loot room. You have made my rust experience more enjoyable.

Damn, i really hope my brain is able to memorize so much information, so i could build it without having to look it up. All in all, great video, you have succesfully outdone yourself!

I used this and I was getting raided from the loot room area and the guy with rockets died to the shotgun traps

Hahaha this is hilarious!!!! - If I think back to when I thought of asking Evil to create a small base that had ALL the SPECIFIC features *_I_* wanted/needed, as a challenge and because i didn't have time to do it but I DIDN'T ASK BECAUSE I _KNEW_ that with his SKILL AND STRIVING FOR PERFECTION he'd INEVITABLY end up there ALL BY HIMSELF ANYWAY AND HERE IT IS!!!! HAHAHAHA!!! FREAKIN AMAZING! Does anyone _get_ what I'm saying here and what it implies? He's so good, like a computer coded to 'find the best, most efficient, most feature packed, most expensive to raid base' and the computer does it, that he's done it! (for what I wanted)

just got online raided in this baby. they got through one wall on the honey comb because counters showed up and killed them... those counters never would have made it in time but the 2 auto turrets on the top floor stalled them for the counters to arrive. this is the first main base i have made other then a honeycomb 2x2... this base is legendary. thank you for building it and i wish you well.

perfect timing! was just looking for version 2 of the mini. currently using one :)

7:30 my 🏠🏠🏠

Just built this with a friend of mine. Logged off so hopefully we won't be raided tonight lol

This is exactly what I wanted! Thanks so much for the base design can’t wait to play some wipes in this. Keep it up 👍🏻

I have been using Valk, Raptor, and now this one :) I got 500 hours rn and ur bases always helped me from my first 20 hours to now

We used this base and defended a 3v6 raid, it was fun to fight from.

I’m gonna start my wipe with a mini fort then make it an external tc that covers this base I’m also gonna make the furnace base an external tc.

Your frustrator was my biggest influence for me to get into building bases so thank you for inspiring me sausage

You are so underrated and you put so much effort into you videos keep making great bases and have a great day!!

Fun fact: fish farm rn can get u thousands of scraps every hour without u doing anything, scraps can buy anything, even sulfur (buy low grade to run quarry)

Love this base design, have build it on many wipes now. But normal I build it a little bit different, i like a little bit bigger shooting floor so you can see behind the base from there. Also I make a door in front of the roof that take u to the second floor so players cant see the roof from outside the base and maybe find out out the base design. Also I like to place a half floor in front of the TC so players cant loot the TC. Made a little video how I like to build your design: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/htV5n9tp2b7beok.html Hope you can give me some tips to how I can make the design even stronger and easier to build! Love your videos, keep up the good work!!!

I can tell you put A LOT of time into creating this base, I really like how you focus on making things easier for beginner players and progressing though the build.

Love that design! I've used it twice since I first watched this video and must admit - it's super efficient! A lot of inventory space, even for a duo, great protection for a managable upkeep, I love it! The title says - for casual players, but even experienced Rust *gamers* can use this design.

I don't even have this game but your videos make me want to play it. Good day.

Been using this base design since i started playing a few months back. 300 hours later and im still using it!! Only revision id make is replacing the roof in the airlock with a half height floor so you can add an extra double door or potentially a double door and ladder hatch behind it

I've been using this base for over a year. It brings me joy watching groups take literally hours to raid it. Even the hackers get disgusted raiding it. When it becomes a target, i load it with traps, then move loot to another base and enjoy the circus of a raid that is about to ensue.

I’ve been waiting for this video for so long!

Your editing skills make things flow so smoothly. Great job as always!

I have waited soo long for this... And now It is here

I was wondering if you actually raid and play the game I’m 50% sure but now I think 100% because of the amount of detail, explanation and overall the amount of intelligence you have which makes the video extremely useful.

this deserves a follow! loving the calm voice.

Wow! That vending machine trick is amazing. I'll definitely be using that in the future

Managed to design this base and it's stopped 2 attempted raids already 😎 Nice work on this design bro and great video 👌

A couple of changes i added was making a roof bunker in the second loot room using a different box setup and using a doorway to place and destroy the triangle for the roof. Have to use a wooden triangle in the loot room to get this to work. Also added a ladder hatch above the roof going up which adds 1 additional c4 to go through doors. Excellence build as always!

It has aged pretty well. I have played my previous two wipes on an x2 server. So far nobody has attempted to raid it. I did however improved it with the meta roof stability bunker. This extends the entrance by 1 square but adds a lot of protection.

Used this base as my teams' first proper base. We made some enemies so we had to relocate before they 8 man raided us but this build is easy to remember so we located across that map and rebuilt in an hour with all our stuff moved! Awesome guide!

Finally finished setting up 2 turrets on the helipad version of this base in a medium pop server. Hope I make it through the wipe! Brilliant designs as always!

Fantastic designs - great to see creative building again!! Keep it up

I am very new to rust. Been playing almost a week, so far I have hopped many servers but finally found one where I had a somewhat decent start. Got a small 3 triangle solo hut I saw JordanRants make. I will definitely be trying to build this though because I’m a little cramps in my tiny house. You have earned yourself a sub!
