Desert Eagle | Sunset Storm 弐 (Battle-Scarred)

Skin overview

Desert Eagle | Sunset Storm 弐 in Battle-Scarred keeps its red base, but the sea hydrographic is heavily broken by wear. Bare, scuffed areas cover the edges and the front of the slide, giving the pistol a battered, aged look. It suits players who want the red colour scheme at the lowest entry point and do not mind a rough finish.

Item type: pistol. Restricted sits in the middle of the rarity scale: noticeably rarer than Mil-Spec, yet not truly rare.

Anodized Multicolored: several colours in the metal coating; it wears little, the colours only dull with use.

Other qualities of this skin: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested and Well-Worn.

How the skin looks in Battle-Scarred

The whole pistol is coated in a red metallic base, and a darker red hydrographic of a stormy sea runs over the slide, frame and grip. The slide shows rolling wave lines and a painted figure near the rear, while the grip carries a larger figure surrounded by leaf-like shapes.

Heavy wear covers the front of the slide, all edges, the frame and the grip. Large parts of the hydrographic are broken, and the figures are only partly readable. In game the pistol reads as a dull, battered red. Some red base still holds in the less exposed areas.

Which stickers suit it

Red, dark gold and black stickers blend well with the red metallic base and keep the subtle look intact. Placing stickers on the flat side of the slide avoids covering the figure on the grip.

What to check before buying

• Check where the float sits within the wear range, since the front of the slide and the edges show the difference first.
• Inspect the grip figure and the slide detail, as the subtle pattern loses readability quickly with wear.
• Check whether the copy is a Souvenir version, because it comes with its own applied stickers.
• Look at any stickers or name tag and decide whether they fit the red colour scheme.
