XM1014 | Quicksilver (Field-Tested)

The XM1014 | Quicksilver (Field-Tested) is a Mil-Spec shotgun finish with a terrain-map hydrographic over metallic silver, now carrying light honest wear. Field-Tested is the most common and affordable way to run the sleek gray design in-game.

Design

Quicksilver overlays a translucent terrain-map print onto a metallic silver base, a cool gray, topographic look that leans on reflectivity rather than bold color. The designer Algis built the finish, and it comes with the in-game line "Sometimes you need an unstable element to solve your problems - Kotaro Izaki, Breach Expert."

XM1014 | Quicksilver (Field-Tested) Float and Wear

On the finish's 0.00–0.50 scale, Field-Tested spans roughly 0.15–0.38. Here the metallic sheen dulls somewhat and scuffing appears along the edges and contact points, softening the reflective surface, though the terrain-map motif stays clearly readable. It's the grade most players settle on for the balance of appearance and cost.

XM1014 | Quicksilver Rarity

Rarity: Mil-Spec Grade — the blue grade, the entry point of the colored weapon tiers and the most frequently seen among them. That commonness keeps this finish easy to find and light on the wallet.

XM1014 | Quicksilver Case and Collection

Field-Tested Quicksilver is drawn from The Chroma Collection, unboxed from the Chroma Case that released in January 2015. The blue Mil-Spec tier drops at around 79.92% from the case (odds shared across the tier's skins), so it's a routine pull rather than a rare find.

XM1014 | Quicksilver Patterns

The design is fixed, which means the terrain-map hydrographic prints identically over the silver on every copy — there's no seed to reroll and nothing like a blue gem to seek out. Wear grade and float value are the only things setting one copy apart from the next.

StatTrak & Souvenir

There's a StatTrak Quicksilver as well, minted from the Chroma Case, which tacks on a confirmed-kill counter; that counter is permanent and never gets wiped when the item is traded or sold. No Souvenir edition was ever made, because Souvenir weapons come strictly from Major-tournament packages and the Chroma Case has never been a Major drop.

XM1014 | Quicksilver Price

Field-Tested sits in the mid-to-lower part of the finish's ladder — cheaper than the two cleanest grades while keeping the metallic design fully legible. It's the practical value option for most buyers and stays in affordable mid-tier territory. Grab it on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

How worn does Field-Tested Quicksilver look?

Moderately. In the 0.15–0.38 float range the metallic sheen dulls and scuffing shows along the edges and grip, softening the reflective quality that defines the finish. The terrain-map motif holds its shape, though, so the shotgun still reads clearly as Quicksilver rather than looking heavily damaged.

Is Field-Tested the best value grade?

For most players, yes. It costs less than Minimal Wear and Factory New while keeping the map design clearly visible, and it's the most plentiful grade around. Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred are cheaper still if you want the lowest price and don't mind more wear dulling the metallic surface.

Does the wear spoil the metallic look?

Somewhat, since the finish depends on a bright, reflective silver base that dulls as wear increases. At Field-Tested the sheen softens and edges gain scuffing, but the terrain-map motif stays recognizable and the design keeps its core identity, giving you the Quicksilver look for far less than the cleaner grades.
