How to claim the Auric Mold weapon skin in Rainbow Six Siege X for free

The Auric Mold weapon skin is a limited-time free cosmetic in Rainbow Six Siege X, tied directly to the game’s 10th anniversary daily login rewards. It’s a golden skin for the P‑10C pistol, usable on Jäger, Clash, and Warden, and it has already had a messy rollout once during Operation Tenfold Pursuit.


What the Auric Mold weapon skin is and who can use it

Auric Mold is a weapon skin for the P‑10C sidearm. It is not a universal skin and cannot be applied to other weapons. In the current operator roster, the P‑10C is available in the loadouts of Jäger, Clash, and Warden, so only those three can equip Auric Mold.

The skin debuted as a free promotional reward tied to the launch of Operation Tenfold Pursuit and was framed as a daily login reward, not as part of the battle pass or a paid bundle.

Why Auric Mold is being reissued

When Operation Tenfold Pursuit went live, Auric Mold was billed as a free login reward that would be obtainable for 24 hours. In practice, the availability window was shorter. The login reward tied to the P‑10C skin disappeared roughly 14 hours after the season launch instead of staying active for the full day.

That early cutoff meant many players who logged in later on day one never had the reward granted to their account, even though they met the basic requirement of starting the game during the advertised period. Ubisoft acknowledged that the timing of the daily rewards reset had been miscommunicated and stated that some players did not receive the skin as a result.

To correct this, the studio is re-dropping the Auric Mold P‑10C skin as a separate login reward later in the December campaign, on top of the already planned reward for that date.


When you can claim Auric Mold for free

Auric Mold is being offered again as part of the December daily rewards celebrating ten years of Rainbow Six Siege. The compensation drop is scheduled for December 27, 2025.

On that date, the Auric Mold P‑10C skin will once again function as a free login reward. It will be available for a single 24‑hour window from the moment it activates in the daily rewards rotation. After that, it returns to being unobtainable through this promotion.

Ubisoft has also indicated that a second cosmetic will be distributed on December 27 alongside Auric Mold, though the details of that extra skin have not been disclosed.

How to get the Auric Mold P‑10C skin on December 27

The current distribution method is intentionally simple: no codes, no challenges, and no battle pass progression. You just need to launch the game while the reward is live.

Step 1: On December 27, 2025, start Rainbow Six Siege X on any supported platform and sign in with the Ubisoft account you normally use to play.

Step 2: Reach the main menu and remain online for a short period. The daily reward system registers your login during this window; there is no separate button to press specifically for Auric Mold.

Step 3: After the login is registered, open your Locker and check the P‑10C in the weapon customization screen for Jäger, Clash, or Warden. Auric Mold should appear as an unlocked skin for that pistol.

Note: During the original drop, the P‑10C skin was granted automatically once a qualifying login was detected. The re-drop follows the same pattern: the important part is being logged in during the 24‑hour availability, not manually claiming it from a pop‑up.


Why some players missed the skin the first time

The original Tenfold Pursuit rollout placed Auric Mold as the first daily reward of the new season. Messaging around the event said players would have nearly a full day to log in and obtain the skin. In practice, the backend reset the daily rewards substantially earlier than expected.

This mismatch meant that players who logged in after work or later in their local evening often saw day two’s reward instead of the pistol skin, even though the promotional messaging still suggested it was available. Some players reported logging in multiple times around the edge of the reset and never seeing Auric Mold appear in their Locker.

Ubisoft later described the situation as a miscommunication around when the daily rewards reset would occur and acknowledged that the P‑10C login reward had only been live for about 14 hours. The December 27 reissue is intended to give anyone who missed that narrow window a second, clearer chance.

How the December daily rewards event works around Auric Mold

The Auric Mold re-drop sits inside a larger month‑long event for Siege’s 10th anniversary. From December 2 through December 31, Siege X is distributing free rewards each day to anyone who launches the game and claims or triggers their daily reward.

The daily rewards rotation spans several cosmetic types: weapon skins, card backgrounds, charms, wildcards, event packs, Alpha Packs, and the new Delta Pack. Separate from the in‑game login rewards, there is also a Twitch Drop campaign that grants a “10 years strong” weapon charm when you watch partnered Siege creators for two hours.

Within that schedule, Auric Mold serves as a corrective bonus. On December 27, the P‑10C skin comes back as an additional daily reward, not a replacement, so logging in that day should yield at least two items: Auric Mold and the regularly scheduled reward.


What to do if Auric Mold does not appear in your locker

If Auric Mold does not show up after logging in during the December 27 window, treat it as a potential account‑side issue rather than assuming the drop is gone.

Step 1: Fully restart the game client and log back in, then check the P‑10C skins again for Jäger, Clash, and Warden. Some login rewards only appear after a fresh session.

Step 2: Confirm that you were online and connected to Ubisoft services when you reached the main menu. Offline sessions or connectivity drops can stop daily rewards from registering.

Step 3: If the skin is still missing and you are certain you logged in during the correct 24‑hour period, contact Ubisoft Support and submit a ticket describing the issue, including the platform and approximate login time. The support entry point is available at https://support.ubisoft.com.

Note: During the initial Tenfold Pursuit launch, some players who logged in around the edges of the reward window never received the skin, even after restarts. The re-drop is meant to address that, but individual account problems can still occur and may require manual investigation.

Auric Mold is ultimately a small but visible part of Siege X’s tenth‑anniversary celebration: a free pistol skin meant to reward simply showing up. If you care about keeping that cosmetic history intact, December 27, 2025 is the one date that matters. Launch the game, reach the main menu while the reward is active, and the P‑10C in your Locker should be wearing gold permanently.
