All expected changes coming in the Rust October update (2025)

Monument updates

We are expecting numerous changes coming to different Monuments in Rust. First and foremost, most green card puzzle Monuments in the game will now feature basic blueprints as a collectible item. Players can expect to find these in basic crates and military crates that are scattered around the area.

The Missile Silo Monument is now being converted to a Tier-3 Monument in the game. It will spawn advanced blueprints for the Workbenches, and furthermore, is guaranteed to have 3 Elite Crates in the main loot room.

Last but not least, Radtown, since its release, has felt extremely underwhelming due to the lack of any proper loot crates in the POI. With the upcoming Rust October update, this Monument is guaranteed to spawn Military crates in the game.

Workbench crafting changes

There are certain Workbench crafting changes that are coming to Rust with the October update. Moving forward, players will be required to collect Basic Blueprints and combine them with Metal Fragments and HQM in order to build the Workbench Level 2.

The process of creating the Workbench Level 3 is similar. However, players will need to source Advanced Blueprints in order to make this item.

Basic Blueprints can be found in general loot crates scattered around Green Card Monuments, like Satellite Dish and Harbor. As for Advanced Blueprints, you can find them in higher-tier Monuments like Train Yard, Power Plant, Launch Site, and even Missile Silo.

Other changes

Alongside these changes, players can expect the developers to incorporate map and blueprint wipes for all official and community servers in the game. With the debut of a new force wipe, players will have to restart their grind and begin their journey from scratch once again.
