Nova | Wood Fired (Battle-Scarred)

The Nova | Wood Fired (Battle-Scarred) is a Mil-Spec shotgun skin showing its green woodgrain, blue accents, and burned-in flames in the roughest condition available. It's the cheapest way into the rustic design, trading surface polish for the lowest entry price.

Design

The finish paints a green woodgrain base, dresses it with blue accents, and scorches dark flame marks across the surface — a warm, hunting-cabin theme that's uncommon on shotguns. It began as a community submission from artist XAKI and ships with a fitting in-game line: "Gone hunting."

Nova | Wood Fired (Battle-Scarred) Float and Wear

Battle-Scarred tops the finish's float scale, which is capped at 0.75 rather than a full 1.0. That cap counts: even at its worst this Nova stops short of the extreme battering a full-range skin reaches, so while the woodgrain and flames pick up heavy scuffing and paint loss, they stay more legible than most Battle-Scarred finishes.

Nova | Wood Fired Rarity

Rarity: Mil-Spec Grade — the blue band, the most common tier of the standard weapon grades. Its position at the foot of the rarity ladder keeps this Nova cheap and easy to come by.

Nova | Wood Fired Case and Collection

Belonging to The Danger Zone Collection, this finish is unboxed from the Danger Zone Case that arrived with the Danger Zone update in December 2018. The Mil-Spec tier is the case's most frequent outcome at around 79.92% (the rate is shared across the tier's skins), which keeps the market well supplied.

Nova | Wood Fired Patterns

Since the design is fixed, the paint seed changes nothing — every copy wears the woodgrain, flames, and accents identically, and there's no blue-gem or best-pattern seed to hunt for. Copies differ from one another only in wear grade and float value.

StatTrak & Souvenir

There's a StatTrak™ Wood Fired as well, carrying a confirmed-kill counter that never gets wiped and stays with the weapon through trades and sales; it drops more rarely and costs more than the standard skin. A Souvenir version doesn't exist — Souvenir weapons are handed out only through Major-tournament packages, and the Danger Zone Case was never one.

Nova | Wood Fired Price

Battle-Scarred is the cheapest grade of the finish — the entry-level way to run the rustic Nova for players who prize the look over the condition. As a Mil-Spec skin, that lands it comfortably at the affordable end of the market. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

Is the Battle-Scarred Wood Fired still recognizable?

Yes. The heavy scuffing dulls the surface, but the dense woodgrain and burned-in flames keep the rustic theme readable at a glance in-game. Battle-Scarred is about accepting visible wear for the lowest price, not losing the design — the green base and scorch marks still mark it clearly as a Wood Fired.

Why doesn't the Battle-Scarred Wood Fired look completely trashed?

Because the finish is float-capped at 0.75 rather than the usual 1.0, its Battle-Scarred copies never hit the most extreme wear. Together with the busy woodgrain-and-flame pattern, that leaves the Nova more legible here than many lighter-based skins are at the same grade.

Is Battle-Scarred the cheapest Wood Fired?

Yes. It's the lowest grade on the ladder and the least expensive way to own the design. Given the skin's Mil-Spec rarity, that puts it among the more affordable Nova finishes overall — a solid pick if you like the rustic look and don't mind the visible weathering.
