Rust “Seasons Beatings” In-Game Event

The Seasons Beatings in-game event begins every few in-game Rust days, and starts with the sound of loud jingle bells. Once the bells ring, two gifts will spawn within 40 meters of each player on the server. Once broken open, the presents will unveil even smaller presents that the players can grab and collect. These presents come in three types: small, medium, and large.

Each present type includes its own loot pool, including exclusive festive items such as a Snowball Launcher, a Santa Hat, a Candy Cane Club, and even Reindeer Antlers. After obtaining 10 of any type of present, you can trade them up into a higher-tier present all the way up to large. Each present scales in loot, with large presents potentially containing endgame weaponry and explosives. For a few extra bonuses, place small and large stockings around your base, which refill with loot every time the jingle bells ring. An advent calendar can also be crafted by players for 100 Wood and 20 Cloth, allowing players to redeem an exclusive reward once every 24 hours.
