Scarab 2x leaderboard

How the boards work

Being good at Rust is several different things, and one table hides most of them. Each board below is ranked separately, so a farmer and a duellist are not competing for the same place.

PVP

Kills against other players, with deaths and kill/death ratio alongside. K/D is kills divided by deaths over the selected period, so a short violent session and a long careful one are comparable.

PVE

Kills against scientists, animals and everything else the map throws at you. It rewards monument running rather than fighting players, which is a different skill and gets its own board for that reason.

Ballistics

Shooting quality rather than volume: accuracy as the share of shots that connect, headshot percentage as the share of hits that land on a head, and longest confirmed distance. Kills do not move this board, hit quality does.

Gather

Resources collected, which is the board most people underrate. Whoever funds the raid decides whether it happens, and that work is invisible on every other table.

Why the numbers are deliberately not live

A public leaderboard that updates instantly tells anyone watching when you are online and what you are doing. That is how stream snipes get timed and how people work out your schedule.

Ours update on a rolling, randomised cycle instead, so the timing cannot be used to track you. The trade is that figures may lag slightly behind live play, and we consider that the right trade. No other Rust server does this.

Periods

Current wipe covers the wipe you are playing now, so it resets when the map does. Last wipe keeps the previous one readable after the reset. All time is cumulative and never resets, which makes it the slowest board to move and the hardest to top.
