Let me walk you through the skin system because it's actually quite straightforward once you understand the basics. The item store is your first stop (you can access this right from the main menu), where new cosmetics drop every thursday, which keeps things fresh and interesting. When you're looking to spend those steam wallet funds, you've got two main options the official store, or checking out the community market where other players list their items (sometimes you'll find better deals here).
Good to know browsing the community market through steam's community tab often reveals some hidden gems, especially if you sort by price. The trading system actually works pretty well because it's integrated directly with steam, though there are some third party platforms available too (just make sure to stick with reputable ones).
The real magic happens in your inventory where you can start customizing your items with the skins you've collected. This is especially useful because different skins can help you blend in with different environments or just show off your style to other players. When you're buying skins, it's worth keeping an eye on market trends, as some cosmetics tend to appreciate in value over time (particularly those from limited releases). Remember that while these look great, they don't affect gameplay mechanics this keeps things fair for everyone while still letting you express yourself.
The only aim in Rust is to survive. Everything wants you to die - the island’s wildlife, other inhabitants, the environment, and other survivors. Do whatever it takes to last another night.

farming locations are highly preferred like those safe quarries. i cant really buy or trade atm because i just started playing and still getting familiar with the game. i probably would enjoy exploring a little more instead of straight up buying
