Into the Rust rabbit hole

Hey everyone,

I’m a solo player on Rust Console Edition, mainly playing on South American (SA) servers and I’m looking for some advice from experienced solo players.
This game really interests me and I genuinely want to get good at it but right now I feel pretty lost once I’ve got my starter base down in a location I like. I can usually get established, get some basic gear, and build a small base but after that I’m never really sure what my priorities should be.
A few things I’d love help with:
What’s a solid solo progression strategy after getting a starter base down?
What monuments should I be focusing on as a solo?
How do you decide when to farm, roam, or run monuments?
Any tips for making consistent scrap and progressing to better weapons?
I’m also absolutely terrible with the crossbow and PvP in general.
How did you improve your aim and game sense?
What weapons should a newer player be practicing with?
Any solo PvP tips for winning more fights or surviving longer?
On top of that, I’m a full-blown bot when it comes to scientists. I don’t know if it’s because I’ve never really progressed beyond a revolver, if I’m bringing the wrong gear, or if I’m approaching monuments completely wrong, but I get absolutely rolled by them. Any advice on fighting scientists as a solo would be hugely appreciated.
I’d also appreciate any general Rust tips that helped you improve when you were new. I watch videos, but a lot of advice seems aimed at PC players.

Thanks in advance. I’m really enjoying the game and want to stick with it, but at the moment I feel a bit overwhelmed and unsure what I should be doing after the early game. Any help is greatly appreciated.
