Pattern features
The entire surface of the assault rifle is covered with jagged gray lines, visually forming a maze. The gaps between the lines are colored in blue, and the outline of some lines is colored in green.
Effect of the pattern index
The pattern index determines the appearance of the forming pattern. There are no valuable pattern variations for this skin.
Effect of float
Float Value of SG 553 | Barricade can vary between 0.00 and 0.65, allowing the skin to be obtainable in any exterior quality category. As the weapon’s condition deteriorates, the paint gets gradually erased from the surface of the assault rifle. At high float values, the gun loses a significant amount of paint, disrupting the integrity of the pattern.
