AWP | Exoskeleton

Origin Story

The AWP | Exoskeleton features a dark metallic base intricately pressed with patterns of interlocking skulls, giving it a complex, macabre appearance. Released on December 3, 2020, as part of The Operation Broken Fang Collection, this skin offers a distinctive thematic aesthetic. Its design leans into a detailed Gunsmith style, combining various metals and engraved patterns. The skin is known for its "Full tilt" flavor text.

Drop Chance

AWP | Exoskeleton is Restricted, a Purple-tier skin in the upper half of the rarity ladder. From the Operation Broken Fang Case: approximately 3.20% per opening (roughly 1 in 31). The 15.98% Restricted tier rate is split across 5 Restricted skins in the case. StatTrak versions drop at ~0.32% from the Operation Broken Fang Case (about 1 in 313). These per-skin odds assume equal weighting within tier — Valve publishes tier rates but doesn't formally confirm even distribution across skins in a tier.

Skin Condition

Float range 0 to 1. Exteriors: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, Battle-Scarred. StatTrak is available in FN, MW, FT, WW, BS.

• Factory New ($75.24): Skull and exoskeleton engravings are crisp and sharply defined, with a clean, dark metallic base and high contrast in recessed areas.
• Minimal Wear ($16.60): Overall appearance remains very close to Factory New, with skull patterns still very clear and the metal retaining its dark sheen; tiny edge wear or micro-scratches may appear around sharp corners.
• Field-Tested ($7.31): Noticeable dulling of the metal surface occurs, especially on the front barrel and stock edges, though skull engravings remain clearly readable.
• Well-Worn ($5.72): Broader areas of surface wear appear on the metal, with more muted colors and increased scratching across the body, making some parts of the skull pattern appear flatter.
• Battle-Scarred ($5.57): The metal surface becomes heavily worn and dulled, with widespread scratches and discoloration, and skull patterns are still partially visible but can be quite faded.

Sticker Compatibility

The AWP | Exoskeleton's dark metallic and skull motif pairs well with white, grey, silver, or black stickers, as well as red or muted gold accents. Transparent, metallic, foil, or skull-themed stickers are likely to complement the underlying engraved pattern. The skin's intricate Gunsmith finish means it can serve as a suitable base for crafts without appearing overly busy, allowing stickers to enhance its detailed design.
