AUG | Stymphalian (Minimal Wear)

Skin overview

The skin is recognised by its contrast of dark metal parts and a warm bronze body decorated with feathered birds and Greek key ornaments. Minimal Wear keeps that contrast nearly intact, with only faint marks that are hard to notice in game. It is a sensible way to get a near-clean look for less than the top grade.

Item type: rifle. The weapon is available only on the Counter-Terrorist side. Classified is the second-rarest weapon tier, only Covert sits above it.

Gunsmith: several techniques combined on one item; some parts rub off, others only dull.

How the skin looks in Minimal Wear

The barrel, scope and upper rail are left in plain dark grey metal, which frames the decorated body. The stock is covered with stylised birds drawn in black, white and copper, with layered feathers spreading toward the butt end, which is finished in bronze.

Small specks may appear on the edges of the stock and on the foregrip. In game at normal distance the rifle looks practically the same as Factory New. The birds on the stock and the magazine pattern remain clean. Differences are visible mainly in inspect mode.

Minimal Wear wear: float 0.07–0.15

The whole float range of AUG | Stymphalian is 0–0.63; Minimal Wear takes the 0.07–0.15 segment (13% of the scale). The lower the float within the range, the cleaner the surface looks and the higher a copy is usually priced.

Which stickers suit it

Gold, holo-gold and black stickers match the copper and dark tones of the artwork. Placements along the receiver above the magazine keep the birds on the stock visible. Themes with mythology, birds or antique ornaments fit the design well.

What to check before buying

• Check where the float sits within the wear range, since lower values keep the stock artwork cleaner.
• Inspect the stock edges, butt end and foregrip, as these lose paint first.
• Look at the magazine sides, where scuffs over the gold pattern are easy to see in first person.
• Note any stickers or name tag and whether they suit the black and gold scheme.

Who the Minimal Wear quality suits

• Players who want a near-clean look in game.
• Crafters who accept tiny marks visible only in inspect mode.
• Conclusion: almost the top-grade look for a smaller outlay.
