The real Chance of Heirlooms

So you mean to tell me the 1% chance of heirlooms in only on the 1st pack of the 500 packs. Im either getting it on pack 1-500 or pack 500-500 there is no chance at all to get it anywhere else.

Hey OGShwager,

Not quite! To clarify, you have a 0.045% chance of getting Heirloom Shards when opening an Apex Pack, as detailed in our FAQ and the article here:

Apex Legends™: Minimum Global Drop Rates

If you've not gotten shards after opening 500 packs, you'll be guaranteed to get them on the next pack. You otherwise have that same chance of getting them whether on pack 1/500, 10/500, 250/500, 500/500, and so on. It'll be the same odds until you reach the point where it's guaranteed, if you haven't received them by that point.

Keep in mind as well that these Pack Types do not count towards the Bonus Heirloom Shards:
