A fresh new update has landed in Standoff 2, and it’s one that fans of cosmetics and inventory collectors will want to pay attention to. Version 0.35.2 brings with it the Craft Syndicate event, introducing a new Craft Coin currency alongside a streamlined way to turn old skins into valuable new rewards. Whether you’re looking to clean up your loadout or chase down exclusive skins, this update makes every item in your collection more valuable.

Let’s take a closer look at what the Craft Syndicate event has to offer!

What Is the Craft Syndicate System?

The Craft Syndicate event is a limited-time activity that feeds into the skin economy in Standoff 2. At the core of the system is a brand-new currency: Craft Coins, which you earn by recycling unused or duplicate skins from your inventory.

Once you’ve earned Craft Coins, you can either:

• Spend them on event-exclusive crates from the Syndicate collection.
• Directly purchase and upgrade cosmetics through the event’s leveling system.

Each action you take—whether crafting an item or opening a box—grants event points, pushing you closer to milestone rewards. These rewards include some visually stunning skins, with the star of the show being a sleek new Tanto knife skin available at the top tier.

How to Use the Craft Syndicate System

Participating in the Craft Syndicate event is simple, and it all starts with your skin inventory. From there, you can:

• Convert Skins into Coins: Trade in 10 skins of the same rarity to receive Craft Coins. Common skins yield fewer coins, while higher-rarity skins (Epic, Legendary, Arcane) give much more.
• Craft or Claim Items: Use your Craft Coins to unlock event containers like the Syndicate Event Crate, Event Box, or Event Case. Each of these options grants a different amount of event points—up to 2,000 for premium crates.
• Level Up for Rewards: As you gather points, you progress through the event’s reward track. Reaching certain point thresholds unlocks special skins, including top-tier rifles and the Tanto blade.

The system is designed to reward both casual players looking to tidy their inventory and dedicated collectors pushing for maximum event rewards.

With the Craft Syndicate event running for a limited time only, now is the perfect moment to dive back into Standoff 2. And if you’re looking for the best way to manage your skins, craft with precision, and grind points efficiently, we highly recommend playing Standoff 2 on PC with BlueStacks.

BlueStacks offers smoother controls, easier inventory management with mouse and keyboard, and a fullscreen experience to fully appreciate your hard-earned skins. Plus, with macro support, you can automate repetitive actions and focus on climbing the event tiers faster than ever.
