HWID Spoofers: Buy a Spoofer to Beat a Hardware Ban

A HWID ban does not block your account, it blocks your hardware: the drive, the network card's MAC address, the motherboard's SMBIOS. The anti-cheat records these identifiers once and then recognizes the same computer even after you create a new account and change your IP.

A spoofer swaps these identifiers for new ones, so the anti-cheat sees unfamiliar hardware and lets you back into the game. That is what sets it apart from an account ban: a new login will not help here, because the game recognizes the computer, not the username.

A spoofer makes sense after a confirmed HWID ban, not as a precaution beforehand. Below are 8 games, each with its own set of working spoofers: requirements (Windows reinstall, IP change, specific motherboard brands) differ from product to product, and nobody offers a blanket 100% guarantee.

Temporary or permanent spoofer

A one-time permanent swap or a subscription for a set period depends on the specific product, not on the game as a whole. Permanent Spoofer for RUST and Permanent Spoofer for Fortnite reset your HWID once, with support for specific motherboard brands (MSI, Gigabyte, ASROCK), and that is it: there is nothing to renew.

The other spoofers each take their own approach. Tetracyclyne for RUST, PUBG and Apex requires a clean Windows reinstall and an IP change on every activation. SHIELD and TitanX for RUST need no Windows reinstall at all, and SHIELD markets itself as a "2-click" activation. Tetracyclyne for Arena Breakout Infinite also clears an ACE HWID ban without a reinstall, even though it shares a brand name with the RUST/PUBG/Apex version that has different requirements. Always check the specific product page for what your spoofer actually needs, averaging across products does not work here.

Can a spoofer run alongside a cheat?

A spoofer runs separately from a cheat and does not get in its way: one program swaps hardware identifiers, the other handles aimbot, ESP and the rest. Running both at once is fine.

There is one exception: the Vengeance cheat for RUST already ships with a spoofer built in, so there is no separate product to buy for that combination. For every other cheat, including other RUST cheats, a spoofer is a separate purchase. The Windows reinstall requirement also differs between spoofers themselves: Tetracyclyne for RUST needs a clean reinstall and an IP change, while TitanX and SHIELD for RUST need neither.

FAQ

What is a HWID ban and how is it different from an account ban?

A HWID ban blocks physical hardware, not a login: the drive, the network card's MAC address, the motherboard's SMBIOS. A new account will not help, because the anti-cheat recognizes the computer, not the username. A spoofer swaps these identifiers so the game sees unfamiliar hardware.

Is it a one-time swap or do I need to renew it?

It depends. Permanent Spoofer for RUST and Permanent Spoofer for Fortnite do a one-time swap, with support for specific motherboard brands (MSI, Gigabyte, ASROCK), and that is it, nothing to renew. The other spoofers work differently, check the specific product page.

Will it help after a ban in a specific game?

It depends on that game's anti-cheat. RUST and Fortnite run on EAC, Arena Breakout Infinite and Delta Force run on ACE, PUBG uses BattlEye, Warzone uses Ricochet. For Escape from Tarkov the product pages do not name a specific anti-cheat. The spoofers listed above are built to swap HWID against their own game's anti-cheat.

Do I need to reinstall Windows?

It depends on the product. Tetracyclyne for RUST, PUBG and Apex Legends requires a clean Windows reinstall and an IP change. TitanX and SHIELD for RUST need neither. Always check the specific spoofer's product page before buying.

Does a spoofer work alongside a cheat?

Yes, a spoofer runs separately from a cheat and does not conflict with it. For RUST, the Vengeance cheat already has a spoofer built in, so there is nothing extra to buy. For every other cheat, including other RUST cheats, a spoofer is a separate purchase.

What if my game is not in the list above?

That means there is no standalone working spoofer for it right now. DayZ's spoofer only comes bundled with the Soft HUB cheat, it is not sold on its own. Valorant's only spoofer is currently frozen, check its product page for status.
