Redditor BAE339 shared their cautionary tale with the Apex Legends community on the game's subreddit, explaining that they were trying to snag the game's incredibly elusive Heirloom Set for Wraith, the void-jumping Legend who's grown notorious for being hard to shoot . So far, this is the only Heirloom Set offered in Apex Legends ,
Keep Reading meaning that Wraith mains - like BAE339 - are feeling the pressure to acquire her unique kunai melee weapon skin, banner pose, and intro quip before additional sets for other Legends lower their odds even further. Rationalizing their mounting number of purchases with publisher EA's guarantee of an Heirloom Set drop within every 500 Apex Packs bought, they quickly found themselves hitting the ceiling of that rule before finally acquiring the set on their 500th attempt. Expecting ridicule (and receiving a fair bit of it among an otherwise supportive response), BAE339 refle
The supply ship is essentially a mobile hot zone minus the fully kitted weapons. It's loaded with all sorts of goodies, making it a tempting target as a drop location. It spawns randomly on the map, but its path will almost always intersect the dropship's at some po

Actually, why stop at a few? Why don't I have... I don't know, exactly twenty of them? Then I could organize them into some sort of itemized list and share them with strangers via the internet! Capital idea, if I don't say so myself. Anyway, let's quit wasting all this valuable time that we should be spending bringing home the wins and get into it. As always, share your own thoughts in the comments be
"I can tell you it wasn’t worth it. I now own every single blue rarity item in the game, along with countless legendaries for almost every gun and legend in the game, none of which I really care for or wanted. All in the hunt for a set of items that has a less than 1 percent chance of droppi
It's almost certain that BAE339 is not the only one to have fallen for the allure of Apex Packs, having mistaken outlier anecdotes and the apparent ease with which professional streamers drop massive sums of money on in-game purchases as representations of their own odds of achieving the same results. While Apex Legends players would be wise to listen to the redditor's advice (especially once they hit Level 100, at which point the game stops handing out free Apex Packs entirely), they can at least take heart in the coming arrival of the game's inaugural Battle Pass sometime this March. Until that relieving wave of content washes over anticipant players, though, they'll have to fight the draw of Apex Packs or submit to the temptation against their better sense of judgem
What the redditor stresses most heavily is that they were and remain entirely cognizant of their poor odds and the manipulative nature of loot boxes, yet they still fell for paying hundreds of dollars into a game that's otherwise completely free to enjoy. Clarifying that they've put "hours into Overwatch and Rocket League ," which each sport their own loot box-centric monetization models, without ever falling down this deep of a rabbit hole, they say that what drove them most was that their friends collected their own Heirloom Sets " in only a few crates " and " all the streamers have them ." Wanting players who also think themselves above the predatory model Apex Packs present, they conclude, " Don't be like m
Apparently, developer Respawn Entertainment is aware of the issue already. A Respawn community manager named Jayfresh_Respawn appeared on the Apex Legends subreddit a few days ago to address the issue , stating that the company is "definitely aware of it" and that they couldn't comment any further on the problem at the time. The fact that Respawn is admitting knowledge of the issue is evidence that it will be addressed sooner rather than later, probably in the next few Apex Legends updat
Next up is the quirky and fun Pathfinder with Chris again merging the colors associated with the character precisely - with the blue, yellow and black gloss - this is Pathfinder down to a T. You can even see the little smiley face logo from the front of Pathfinders screen on his chest attached to the side of the sneaker. Genius!
If you're curious on how Chris constructed this particular design, you're in luck as he uploaded a Pathfinder Airmax Speed Art video to show all the different aspects and tweaks he had to execute to make it as true to form as possible - check out the speed run clip below.
The Alternator is a sub-machine gun, but it has no business being in the same category as the R-99 and the Prowler. It deals virtually the same damage as the R-99 (13 body and 19 head against the R-99's 12 body and 18 head), but it holds less rounds AND fires much slower. Whereas the R99 unleashes at an mind-melting 1,080 rounds per minute, the Alternator only squeaks out 640, making its damage per second the weakest of all the machine guns. Use the Alternator as a starting weapon and immediately discard it when the chance all
