The Floating City monument is one of the most unique safe zones ever introduced to RUST, and with it comes an entirely new ecosystem of shops, utilities, and specialty vendors. Whether you’re stocking up before a Deep Sea run, hunting for rare items, or simply trying to farm Scrap efficiently, knowing what each barge’s vendor sells, and for how much, can save you a lot of time and risk.
This guide provides a full breakdown of every Floating City vendor, including their inventories, prices, utility access, and standout items you won’t find anywhere else. Explore the loot tables below to plan your routes, maximize value, and make the most of your visit to this drifting pirate haven.
It’s important to note that, given the Floating City’s procedurally generated nature, there are subtle differences from one spawn to the next, especially regarding the appearance of NPC vendors. Their general location should remain stagnant, but how they look can vary. It’s also important to note that the merchant tax applied on the mainland does not apply in the Deep Sea.
The Floating City brings a fresh twist to RUST’s safe zone ecosystem, offering a time-gated, drifting marketplace packed with unique vendors, useful utilities, and the kind of oddball charm only a pirate-themed barge town can provide. With the loot tables above, you should have everything you need to plan efficient visits, budget your scrap, and make the most of what each barge has to offer before the Deep Sea event disappears again.
Whether you’re a player mapping out your next run or a server admin double-checking vendor stock, use this guide as a quick reference to keep your Floating City experience smooth and profitable. Be sure to check out the Outpost and Bandit Camp Loot Tables as well!
