The heirlooms are nifty but that's it, they look cool.

Why are heirlooms so hard to get?

Can you get Heirloom Shards if you already have some?

You can get more heirloom shards until you have all heirlooms unlocked . If you have all heirloom unlocked, you are not able to get more heirloom shards in Apex Packs.

Probability[ | ]

A few things to note:

Apex Packs do not drop duplicates. If an item already owned is chosen to drop again, it'll be converted in Crafting Metals.^[1]
- A Common item converts to 15, a Rare to 30, an epic to 200, and a Legendary to 600.
- If the case of Collection Event Packs and Themed Event Packs, if somehow all event items are owned before opening one, all the Pack contents will be replaced by an amount of Coins equal to the Pack cost.
There is no estimated chance for Rare items to drop, although they are logically rarer than Common items.
Rare items not already in possession take priority over Rare duplicates, which is why Rare Crafting Metals are harder to find compared to the other rarities since Common, epic, and Legendary items instead are fully random.
A Legendary item is guaranteed to drop in the next Pack after 29 Packs are opened without finding any.^[1] This only applies to Rare Packs.
Heirloom Shards are guaranteed to drop in the next Pack after 499 Packs are opened without finding any, unless all Mythic items are already owned.^[1] Collection Event Packs and Themed Event Packs do not count towards this, and Heirloom Shards cannot be found in them.
- When Heirloom Shards are found, the Pack is not consumed.^[1]

These are the chances for at least one item to drop in higher quality than Common.

Main article: Prime Gaming Loot

Trivia[ | ]

There is a rare Apex Pack animation causing the Pack to "blast off" after dropping all three items.
Thematic Packs and Collection Event Packs produce a different, metallic sound when being opened, compared to regular Packs.
Players whose store region is set to Belgium cannot purchase Apex Packs due to a gambling law banning video game loot boxes. The ones earned through methods that don't involve purchasing them with real money (leveling up, challenges, Free Battle Pass rewards) can still be earned and opened, but the Packs cannot be bought with Coins, and the ones in the Premium Battle Pass are replaced with Crafting Metals:
- Rare: offers 60 Crafting Metals
- epic: offers 250 Crafting Metals
- Legendary: offers 800 Crafting Metals
Monster Within Packs mistakenly had the same rarity drop rates as Collection Event Packs for standard loot pool items when they were first released on October 12, 2021. They were fixed shortly after.
