WEAPON SKIN CRAFTING

Starting STX3, SHRAPNEL is introducing weapon skin crafting! A variety of weapon skins, known as “Craftable skins,” can be obtained by trading in a specific set of weapon skin fragments to craft the desired skin. These fragments can be acquired during gameplay sessions or purchased from other players on the marketplace. Each craftable skin requires three unique fragments — labeled as A, B, and C — corresponding to that skin and weapon type.

Players can also use a Wildcard Weapon Skin Fragment in place of any one missing Weapon Skin Fragment to complete the crafting of a Weapons Skin. Wildcards can be either extracted from game or purchased in the Marketplace.

We will be expanding the system by introducing new Weapon Skin Fragments and retiring older ones, hence these craftable skins are available for a limited period of time.

Players will be able to perform crafting, even when the servers are offline (i.e. outside of STX hours).

WEAPON SKIN FRAGMENTS

Each set of Weapon Skin Fragments is unique to the Weapon Skin they are used to craft and that skin only. Crafting a skin is as easy as combining the set of fragments, in-game to craft the skin which will burn that set of fragments.

Skin fragments can be found in game via crates and other lootable objects or purchased from other players on the marketplace.

WEAPON SKIN FRAGMENT

FRAGMENT RARITY

Fragments will carry the rarity of the underlying skin, i.e. if the craftable skin is epic, the fragment would also be epic. The rearer the skin, the more difficult it would be to find these skin-specific fragments and would be usually dropped later into the gameplay sessions via supply drop and/or mid-session repopulation.

The rarity of each fragment can be easily identified by the color indicator.

WILDCARDS

In addition to skin-specific fragments, we also have Wildcard Fragments, which can be used to complete any skin set that is missing one fragment regardless of rarity. Wildcards can be found in game or purchased in the Marketplace. Wildcards can not be sold by players.

SECURE POUCH

The Secure Pouch ensures you obtain your skin fragments and wildcards, even if you fail to extract or get killed. It can store up to three items at a time, so be sure to place your fragments and wildcards inside it while playing.

If you successfully extract, you will obtain all fragments and wildcards (both from your Backpack and Secure Pouch).
