Best 5x Rust servers
958 5x Rust servers are online right now with 9,756 players between them. 13 (1%) are vanilla, 398 (42%) enforce a group limit of four or fewer, and 135 wiped in the last 24 hours; 9 are at 90% capacity or more. The list below ranks them by current population (plus queue, minus map age), so the top of it is where people actually are, not who paid for placement. Each row shows the team limit, gather rate, when it last wiped and when it wipes next, with a link to the server's own page for the full schedule. 5x here means servers with 3x to 5x gather rates.
