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.
