The Multicam Tropic variant proves to be just as effective as its ¡°parent¡±, but at the same time it is suffering from the same downsides: lacking contrast and missing dominant macro elements. So while it gives the user a ¡°good enough¡± camouflage effect, it also becomes somewhat redundant at longer engagement distances. The Multicam family of patterns mainly work with the concept of blending. The added benefit of visual disruption is only partly to be found, when looking at the patterns in the field.
