Earn RUST Twitch Drops by Watching Your Favorite Streamers
\nRUST has been booming on Twitch lately due in part to the new RUST Twitch Drops available for stream viewers. Drops are in-game rewards that are awarded to your account after periods of watching streamers with drops enabled. These rewards can be exclusive in-game items or RUST skins. How long you watch and what prizes are available to earn changes from one drop event to another.<\/p>\n
Past rewards include the custom Twitch-related items from RUST\u2019s first Twitch drops event, including purple sunglasses, a headset, and underwear. Players with these drops can craft the sunglasses and headset, but the underwear must be applied via the inventory screen like the Sunburn DLC swimsuits. The second Twitch drops event included crates of random skins.<\/p>\n
Once you have drops enabled, all you have to do is watch a stream to start progressing toward a drop, so it\u2019s worth setting up your account so that time accumulates whenever you find yourself watching a\u00a0 RUST stream.<\/p>\n
The 4 steps to get free RUST Twitch Drops:<\/p>\n
Visit the Twitch Drops page on the Facepunch website.
\nLink your Twitch account
\nLink Your Steam account
\nActivate Twitch Drops for your Steam account
\nRegistering for Twitch Drops in RUST
\nRegistering for RUST Twitch Drops isn\u2019t hard, but if you haven\u2019t registered for Twitch drops before, the process might be a little confusing. To make the process easier, sign in to your Steam and Twitch accounts before starting registration.<\/p>\n
Register for Twitch drops easily.
\nStep 1. Go to\u00a0https:\/\/twitch.facepunch.com\/.<\/p>\n
Connect Your Twitch Account
\nStep 2. Click the down arrow to travel down to the registration section. Here it will ask you for your Twitch login details unless you logged in beforehand. If you are already logged in, click the purple \u2018Authorize\u2019 button to complete the authorization.<\/p>\n
Connect Your Steam Account
\nStep 3. Below the twitch login, you will see a Steam login window.\u00a0 Authorize the Steam connection with Facepunch. Connecting your steam account allows Twitch to send the items to your steam inventory, which in turn lets you create the objects in-game.<\/p>\n
Activate Twitch Drops for Your Steam Account
\nStep 4. Once you log in to both accounts, scroll down to the third button. Clicking this enables drops.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Once your activation is complete, you should see your Steam account linked. Should you choose to change Twitch accounts for any reason, you can also unlink the account from this page and go through the registration process once again for the desired Twitch account.<\/p>\n
Watching RUST streamers
\nFrom here, you can either hit the watch now button that becomes available or head over to the RUST Twitch splash page, which will show current RUST streamers. Watch a streamer for the allotted time, and you\u2019ll see the drop appear in your chat window.<\/p>\n
Make sure your chosen streamer has Twitch drops enabled. The easiest way to find a streamer with drops enabled is to use the drops enabled filter in Twitch\u2019s search bar.<\/p>\n
Receiving Twitch RUST drops
\nIf you click on the accept drop button, your window will take you to your Twitch account\u2019s drops section. If you\u2019ve missed the window or were away when the drop appeared, you can always get to the drops section by clicking your Twitch profile icon in the top right of the window to display the menu.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Once the menu is open, scroll down and click on Drops.<\/p>\n
In the drops section, you can claim any available drops. It can take several minutes for the Twitch drop to appear in your Steam inventory, so don\u2019t worry if it doesn\u2019t pop up right away. When an item registers as \u201cclaimed,\u201d you know that this item is registered to your account. All claimed drops would remain in your inventory.<\/p>\n

Opening Twitch Drop crates
\nIf you\u2019ve received a skin crate, open your RUST client. In the main menu, navigate to your inventory. From there, choose your container and press the open button to empty the crate and reveal your prize. If you\u2019ve received an item, like the sunglasses or headset, you will now be able to craft the item in-game. If you\u2019ve received a RUST skin, you can now apply this skin in-game<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
