Drops from: World drop in Endgame zones. Drop rate: 0.4-0.6% (community-reported).
At a sub-1% drop rate, expect a long farm. Most community runs report 60-150 boss kills before a confirmed drop. Set up a fast travel rotation and bring a reload-speed-focused build to keep the kill cadence up.

Corrosive eats armored enemies and is the recommended element for Ordonite Processor and Rust Tyrant farms. Less efficient against shield-only or flesh-only mob types.
The natural fit for Rust Bomber is Rafa's Grenadier tree (corrosive grenade synergy). Stack the relevant capstone before farming the deeper raid tiers — the build planner at /builder/ lets you preview the synergy.
A legendary launcher like Rust Bomber earns its spot when the rest of your kit covers the gaps it leaves. Cover ranged combat with a precision rifle and short-range with a Tediore reload throw. See our walkthroughs for boss-by-boss build recommendations.
