Rads per second. Your radiation protection subtracts from these, and the game caps protection at 50, so a zone above 50 always lets some through. What to wear names the gear that blocks it, and the radiation guide compares every monument.

What opening every crate and barrel above once gives, on average, most first. The figures are the ones on each item's own page. Blueprints are not counted. Not counted, because no loot table was tested for them yet: Food Box (3), Vehicle Parts Crate (1). A full clear gives a little more than shown.

Giant Excavator Pit pickups

inside the monument area

Hemp, berries, mushrooms and ore you pick up by hand, counted inside the monument area right after the map loads. They spawn at random points, so this is an average and a map can have more or fewer.

Giant Excavator Pit spawns and respawn times

most alive at once
SpawnsMax at oncePer respawnRespawn
101 to 215 to 30 min
52 to 430 to 37 min
3130 to 37 min

A row with several items fills each spot with one of them at the odds shown. A timed row starts with one respawn's worth and adds that many each respawn until it reaches the max. Respawn times hold up to 150 players online; more players make them faster. Rows with no respawn timer fill once when the monument loads.

Methodology

Tested in game on live 4000 maps on our own server: loot containers by type (the average of 6 placed copies; containers spawn at random points, so a map can have a few more or fewer), recyclers, workbenches, research tables, repair benches, keycard readers and their tier, pickups inside the monument area, fuse boxes, NPC capacity, radiation per second and every spawner's limit and respawn time. NPCs are the monument's own guards; tunnel dwellers in a train station below and roadside scientists are not counted. No-building areas, Chinook drop zones, crash sites, train tunnel links and puzzle wiring were tested the same way. Scrap estimates use the measured average scrap per opening of each container type; a container not yet tested counts its guaranteed scrap, marked +. What you find here is each container count times the tested chance and average amount of every item in it, the same figures as the item pages. What to wear takes the protection of each piece off the strongest zone, the same figures as the attire pages. Tested on the current version of Rust.
