How to Obtain the Heirloom
There are two primary methods to acquire Bangalore’s heirloom:
- Event Collection: During Chaos Theory, collect all 24 event items through:
- Apex Coins purchases
- Crafting Metals
- Event-specific Apex Packs
- Post-Event Crafting: After the event concludes, the heirloom enters the general pool available through heirloom shards (requiring 150 shards)
Note that the event method provides immediate access, while post-event acquisition relies on random heirloom shard drops from Apex Packs.
Pro Tips for Efficient Collection
Maximize your chances of securing Bangalore’s heirloom with these strategies:
- Resource Planning: Calculate your needed Crafting Metals or Apex Coins in advance
- Event Challenges: Complete all event tasks for free rewards
- Budget Allocation: Prioritize direct purchases over packs if aiming for specific items
- Common Pitfall: Avoid spreading resources too thin across multiple event items
Remember that event items typically cost 50% more Crafting Metals than regular cosmetics, so plan accordingly.
