What happens when the bug occurs? I load up and my store, crafting materials, and red coins won't load. I accidentally clicked the heirlooms for the legends on their personal customization not thinking I would actually be getting them.
What should be happening instead? You need to take away all my heirlooms and I should only have bloodhounds heirloom that I actually bought
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Uknown, it just happens. I really don't want to be banned and did not mean to do this. Please do not ban me it was a mistake. Thank you.
I do not know how to take photos, The only person I bought my heirloom for with heirloom shards from a pack was bloodhound. All the others should be taken away. I just checked and I have an heirloom for caustic, gibby, revenant, Valkyrie, and rampart. I did not intend to receive any of these, and they should be removed from my account. This was an accident, and it is a bug. Please do not ban or penalize me for something that was not intentional. Thank you.
Hello, while this can still be performed, if you restart the game client it should check again and "remove" the heirloom.
If you find yourself with an unearned heirloom, please try this restart.
Edit, this has been largely addressed now. There are some edge cases where it might appear in certain situations, but it shouldn't be usable as it was previously.
