Bring the iconic "Clue Scroll" experience from Old School RuneScape directly into Rust! Treasure Trails adds a dynamic, multi-stage reward system that encourages players to explore the map, engage in diverse activities, and hunt for high-tier loot through a series of challenging tasks.
How It Works
- Discovery: Players find Clue Scrolls as rare drops from loot sources (barrels & crates), and can effortlessly be added to shops, custom loot plugins etc.
- The Hunt: Each scroll contains a specific task. Upon completion, the player is granted the next "step" in the trail.
- The Reward: After completing a set number of steps, the player receives a Reward Casket. Opening a casket grants customizable loot and can even trigger server commands.
Key Features
- Fully Customizable Steps: Server owners have total control. Design unique tasks for every step of the trail to fit your server's theme.
- Dynamic Loot Tables: Reward your players with rare items, blueprints, or currency.
- Command Integration: Caskets aren't just for items—run any console command upon opening (e.g., granting VIP ranks, economic rewards, server rewards, item perk rewards etc).
- Immersive Experience: Keeps players moving across the map and interacting with the world in ways they normally wouldn't.
Every trail is a unique journey.
Players will encounter several distinct types of challenges, each requiring a different set of skills to overcome.
Players are given a list of specific clothing or armor pieces they must equip.
Once dressed correctly, they must locate and speak to a specific NPC to receive their next step.
The scroll displays a static image of a location or a hand-drawn style map with a red X.
These clues only appear if the corresponding monument or landmark exists on your current map seed.
Navigate to the exact spot marked on the image to progress.
A scrambled name or phrase appears on the scroll.
Solve the anagram to figure out which NPC the clue is referring to, then find and speak with them.
A direct question regarding Rust lore, game mechanics, or server-specific trivia.
Input or provide the correct answer through the clue interface to unlock the next stage.
A cryptic poem or mysterious description of an NPC.
Use logic and map knowledge to deduce who the riddle describes and track them down.
The clue provides a specific set of world coordinates or grid references.
Players must use their map and compass to reach the exact location.
