Souvenir XM1014 | Solitude (Field-Tested)

Skin overview

The topographic theme of XM1014 | Solitude stays readable even after some use, because the contour lines are drawn over large areas of the weapon. In Field-Tested the pale receiver starts to show scuffs at its edges and the barrel tip loses some paint, while the blue relief on the barrel and tube still carries the look. It is the middle ground between price and appearance.

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

Hydrographic: the pattern is applied as a film over the metal; wear rubs it down to the base, starting with raised parts.

The remaining qualities of this skin: Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred.

Appearance in Field-Tested

The barrel and the magazine tube are covered in a deep teal finish with dark contour lines that imitate a mountain relief map, with small gold accents near the front of the barrel and on top of the receiver. The receiver is painted in a pale cream tone with light topographic lines outlined in dark grey, which makes it the brightest part of the weapon.

The muzzle and the front of the magazine tube show small chips, and the receiver edges carry visible scuffs. The pale receiver picks up light scratches that are easier to see than wear on the dark barrel. At normal distance in game the two-tone look and the relief pattern still read clearly. The middle of the barrel and the centre of the receiver stay largely clean.

Field-Tested wear: float 0.15–0.38

Souvenir version

This is the Souvenir version: such copies dropped to tournament viewers in souvenir packages; the team stickers and signatures on them cannot be removed or chosen. Souvenir items never carry StatTrak™. There is also the regular version without tournament stickers.

Which stickers suit it

Stickers in blue, teal, white or gold tones blend well with the relief pattern, especially when placed on the pale receiver. Dark or holographic stickers along the barrel keep the contrast with the light section without breaking the map motif.

What to check before buying

• Check where the float sits within the wear grade, since a lower float keeps the pale receiver noticeably cleaner.
• Look closely at the receiver edges and the muzzle, which are the first places where paint comes off.
• Souvenir copies come with pre-applied stickers, so check whether their look suits the cream and teal colours.
• On copies with stickers or a name tag, make sure they match your plans, as they cannot be moved to another item.

Who should buy Field-Tested

• Players who use the XM1014 regularly and want the relief pattern to read well.
• Buyers balancing price and appearance.
• A solid middle choice for everyday play.
