The core innovation of this mod is the layered system. Every building block—wood, stone, iron, gold, and netherite—now has a durability limit. Instead of simply exploding and vanishing in a single detonation, a block loses a layer of its integrity with each explosion. A block is only destroyed completely after it has lost all its layers, requiring multiple attacks to be taken down. This unique mechanic transforms the raid dynamic, demanding more strategy and resources from attackers.
New Items: C4 and Powerful Defenses
To complement the system, the mod introduces the C4 bomb, a new explosive item that, when detonated, removes one layer of protection from blocks. This means destruction is no longer instantaneous, and defenders have time to react and repair their structures. Block durability varies by material: wood is the most fragile, while netherite is virtually impenetrable, offering the ultimate defense.
Raid Time: Strategic PvP
To ensure fair and balanced gameplay, the mod includes a predetermined raid window. Blocks with the layered system can only be damaged during this specific period, which is announced to all players on the server. Outside of the raid window, your base is safe and your builds are protected from unexpected attacks.
With this new mechanic, building a base becomes an act of strategy and dedication. Defense is no longer a luxury but a priority. Get ready to fortify your base, protect your valuables, and stand strong against attacks with The Rust Defense System!
