Weapon Skins

Guns skins are a cosmetic item added to the game on May 13, 2021. These items change the color and appearance of a weapon in-game, both from the 1st-Person and 3rd-Person perspectives. The only way to obtain gun skins currently is to find them occasionally in the shop. One set was previously earned through a ZDC event (Halloween 2021).

Weapon skins are applied only to the weapon assigned to it. This means that the same skin will have to be purchased multiple times if it is to be used on a different weapon. Once purchased, weapon skins can be equipped while selecting a weapon in the menu. Weapon skins serve as a purely cosmetic item and do not influence the stats of a weapon. Some weapon skins are more exclusive and are only made available to certain weapons (the most common being for the Knife.

## History

Weapon skins were a feature with high demand from as far back as 2018. Since 2019, the Developers of the game stated that it was an active project that would continue to be pushed aside for other updates. It wouldn't be until March 21, 2021, where developer JoJa15 would demonstrate several images of camouflage textures applied on different guns. Three days later, on March 24, 2021, Developer Rocky Balboa showcased a video of a rotating AR Rifle with two different textures followed by several images of different textures on the AR Rifle.

### Test Phase

March 24, 2021, following the recent news and showcases from developers, Rocky Balboa released a test renderer through https://stats.warbrokers.io/media/weaponSkins (link no longer active). This would allow users to properly view all previously shown skins as well as some others. This helped showed off what weapon skins could be like with a series of textures only available to preview on the AR Rifle. Users were additionally able to upload an image of their choosing to see their own custom ones too. Rocky Balboa stated that some of the skins would come to the game; however some would not. One main reason was that some images came from online sources with active copyright and so could not legally be distributed in the game. Some were more of a joke than serious, such as one that used the Hazmat Suit.

Included in the list of examples were skins resembling bronze, silver, and gold. Rocky Balboa confirmed that down the line the plan was to award players weapon skins that corresponded to their medal on the stats page.

### Release

#### May 13, 2021

After one day of delay due to one developer having an internet outage—weapon skins were officially released. The first skins to release were a free desert AR skin, and a jungle camo skin for every weapon at the time (excluding Grenades, Grenade Launcher, Revolver, and Knife) for 40 coins each. The next day, a pink crystal and aurora skin was added for the SCAR and Knife; marking the first Knife skins in the game.

#### Feb 1, 2022

The VEK SMG would become the 16th weapon and first weapon outside of weapon skin's initial release to now feature the option of equipping skins. It started off with 9 available skins in the shop that day.

#### Oct 30, 2022

The game would get its first dynamic weapon skin.

### Development

The creator series was a project allowing users to create for the game to have their own creations and to receive coin payments from those that purchase their cosmetics. With the absence of developer Rocky Balboa, the overseer of this project, this project has been shelved. Some of these skins in development (from both current creators and potential upcoming ones) include:

## Candy Corns

 Release

The Candy Corns set is a series of weapon skins obtained through the 2021 Halloween ZDC.

This weapon skin is unique as opposed to all other weapon skins. Rather than purchase it, players had to earn it through the challenges provided by the event. Players would first be required to collect all rewards prior before they would be able to earn this grand prize. It was earned by winning a round with all 7 antidotes in the player's inventory. The skin was only given for 10 out of the then 15 total weapons that supported skins. The Candy Corn set includes: AR Rifle, AK Rifle, SCAR, Hunting Rifle, Sniper Rifle, .50 Cal Sniper, Sub-Machine Gun, VSS, Shotgun, and Pistol.

Players who did not earn this grand prize for their 10 weapons are now unable to obtain it. It has not returned in following events, and is unclear if it will ever return. It is widely considered to be the rarest weapon skin set.

### Trivia

* This is the only weapon skin that has been bundled for multiple weapons at once (normally players would have to buy/earn each individual cosmetic)
* This is the only weapon skin not obtained from purchases
* The skin has only be obtainable once and through a series of challenges, making this possibly the rarest weapon skin
* The skin can be viewed on other weapons via a skin smuggling bug
	+ While some weapons appear to be salvageable, it is clear why some of them were not intended to release
	+ The skin is older than some newer weapons that may work with the skin, like the VEK—which was the first weapon added to the list of weapons with skins since weapon skin launch—which didn't receive skin support until February 1, 2022

## Glowing Pumpkin

This skin is the first dynamic weapon skin in the game. It was added on October 30, 2022. It came for both the Knife and the Sniper Rifle, selling for 70 coins each. The pumpkins and cobwebs both glow over a static black background (or orange handle). This would mark the second appearance of the Heroic rarity since the Joja's Pizza Delivery Car, consequently cementing the rarity into circulation. There are actually two different weapons skins (wxxc040 and wxxc041); one for each weapon. This separation allows for specific details with cobwebs to be optimally spread across the weapons.

### Skin Smuggling

As this is two skins, smuggling will provide different results depending on the source for the skin.
