What is the ultimate goal of Rusty Rafts?
Navigate your raft to the 8km Northern Shelter. This represents the definitive win-state of the game. The journey is marked by progression badges at each kilometer, but only 2.7% of players ever defeat Captain Saltbeard to progress beyond the mid-game.

What are the best classes to use?
Recommended composition for coordinated crews:
- Pumper (+100% oxygen, +33% fuel) - Essential for deep-sea scavenging and Light Tower retrieval
- Janitor - Reduces button presses from 3 to 1 for cleaning tasks
- Co-Pilot - Balanced default class for combat and navigation
How do I defend my raft against boarding parties?
Defense requires multiple layers:
- Defensive Turrets - Acquired from Military Base raids, these automate defense
- Light Tower - Critical for nighttime visibility to spot incoming threats
- Naval Cannon - Infinite ammunition for suppressive fire
- Flashbangs - Blind enemy boarding parties in close-quarters combat
Why do I keep drowning when swimming?
Swimming rapidly depletes stamina. If stamina reaches zero while in water, you drown immediately. Always:
- Stay within swimming distance of your raft
- Use a Pumper class member for deep-sea operations
- Watch your stamina bar carefully when retrieving submerged items
What is the rarest item in Rusty Rafts?
The Minigun is the rarest and most powerful item. It can only be obtained by defeating the Exterminator boss in the late-game zones. The Minigun possesses unprecedented DPS capable of shredding both enemy players and raft infrastructure.
