Man, remember when those original 2x1 honeycombs were legit impenetrable for solos if you knew what you were doing? Or the classic 'hidden bunker under the cliff' base? It feels like the Rust meta for base designs has shifted so much over the years, especially with all the new raiding tools and building parts. I'm trying to get back into playing Rust more consistently and was wondering what kind of base designs you guys recommend for a solo or small group (2-3 players) these days? What are the essential things to incorporate for early game survival and then scaling up to defend against a serious clan push? I'm talking actual blueprints or YouTube tutorials you found super effective. Used to love watching old build videos, but a lot of them just don't hold up anymore. Any go-to secrets or modern builds that still make you feel safe during a wipe?
