Apex Legends Mobile has quite swiftly become one of the most downloaded and played FPS games on any given mobile platform. Ever since the ban on PUBG Mobile in India, players had really been looking forward to a good enough and decent Battle Royale game.
Well, Apex Legends Mobile provided the players just that. Also, the fact that the beta version of the game launched in India and the Philippines gained so much popularity would mean that an official version is not far away.
Apex Legends has always been known for the wide array of skins and cosmetic rewards which it offers to its players to help them customize their own characters and weapons. Well, today we will be talking about something related to that so, let’s get started.
What is Heirloom Melee weapon in Apex Legends Mobile?
Apex Legends has a plethora of fabulous unlockable content and some of the rarest of the rare item types that gamers usually are after are Heirlooms. Heirloom melee weapons are a highly sought-after cosmetic object type in Apex Legends. Although Heirlooms do not increase damage, they do provide a Legend with a specific melee weapon and a series of new action animations when played without a weapon.
They are, nevertheless, very scarce and difficult to obtain, making them extremely pursued for. Composed of a banner pose, melee weapon, and intro quip, Legend-specific Heirlooms are quite desired items, because of their abject rarity.
The odds of getting an heirloom item are quite rare in Apex Legends Mobile. To put things into perspective, players have less than a 1% chance of getting an heirloom item in an Apex Pack. This basically means that players need to open at least 500 Apex Packs to maybe get their hands on one heirloom set.
People could also acquire an heirloom set during specific collection events. These are when a new heirloom set is introduced to the game; if you gather all 24 items during the event, you’ll activate the said particular heirloom set. If you skip a case, you’ll have to cross your fingers and hope for those heirloom shards.
Initially, the heirlooms weren’t as popular as now and only Wraith had her Heirloom set. However, now quite a few legends have their own unique heirlooms. They are as follows:
- Wraith – Kunai (A black blade with a glowing purple edge)
- Bloodhound – Raven’s Bite (An axe with a glowing red edge)
- Lifeline – Shock Sticks (A pair of defibrillator sticks)
- Pathfinder – Boxing Gloves (Blue boxing gloves with screens on them)
- Octane – Butterfly Knife (A green knife with Octane’s signature stim)
- Mirage – Too Much Witt (A golden trophy of Mirage)
- Caustic – Death Hammer (A hammer shaped like a skull, equipped with gas)
- Gibraltar – War Club (A hatchet with glowing, fire-like elements)
- Bangalore – Cold Steel (A pilot’s knife with glowing gold elements)
Now you have an idea of what heirlooms are, so, let the journey to collecting heirlooms begin.
