Timed Explosive Charge (C4)
C4: the gold standard of raiding that blows through any wall with no aiming required.
- Type
- Explosive
- Craft cost
- 20 Explosives, 5 Cloth
The Timed Explosive Charge, or C4, is the most reliable raiding tool in Rust. You stick it to a wall or door and it detonates after a fixed timer, and two C4 take down a sheet metal wall regardless of where you place them. No throwing skill, no ricochet, just guaranteed damage.
Why Raiders Hoard It
C4 needs a Tier 3 workbench and a stack of Explosives to craft, making it expensive, but its consistency makes it the benchmark every other raiding method is measured against on the raiding tier list.
