Official Rust servers, graded

It is a server listed in Rust's own Official tab, run by Facepunch or an approved partner network. Official does not always mean untouched: a few carry a modded tag or a lower team limit. The Tags and Group columns show those where the data has them.

Each grade comes from the live numbers on the server: current population, how steady it stays across the day, uptime and how its wipes go. Nothing is scored on reputation or on the server's own description. If the data is too thin to support a verdict, the report says so and leaves the grade blank.

They sit where most players look first, and regulars know the wipe times. The busiest hold several hundred slots and still queue after a wipe. Joining right after a restart helps, and so does a partner server with the same wipe day and a shorter line.

Facepunch's force wipe clears every map on the first Thursday of the month. Beyond that, official servers set their own schedules, often every one or two weeks on the same weekday. The next wipe estimate in the table follows what each server has actually been doing rather than what it publishes.
