New Player Question

I'm going to keep this as short as I can because of how tired I am right now.

I recently picked up Apex Legends for the first time roughly about a week ago, I've hit level 51 player level and 85 on the Battle Pass and I have enjoyed every second of it. I have found my favorite legend and really enjoy the game.

There is one thing though that bothers me and I just wish I knew the answer to it. My favorite legend is Valkyrie I love her playstyle and personality. I got her about three days into my first week of playing took me to level 23 to get enough legend tokens for her and now I main her hardcore. There are 2 skins for her that obv since I started last week I was not around for and I was wondering if one of them would ever come back? Not when just IF it will come back, not knowing the answer to that is what is really driving me insane. ☹️

The skins I really like for Valkyrie are her Birthright and the Blue Bomber (Which is a Reskin of the birthright I believe) I am willing to bet that the Birthright one will never come back, but what about the Blue Bomber? I like the color blue anymore and I LOVE LOVE LOVE playing her and really hope I can get this skin at some point I plan on continuing to enjoy this game but that skin would just make the experience even better so does anyone know IF (not when) the skin will ever make a return for newer players like me? ☹️

    So like will the blue bomber skin if it ever returns, appear in the specials section of the shop--or the featured section?

    Question about the shop, why does the time before items change keep changing? I just sat here and went to main menu and then loaded back in multiple times and it said items would change in 17hrs, 23hrs, 1day, and 4days. Why is it so inconsistent and how do I know when the items will actually change out? Is the timer accurate?

    @ModdedTurtles Here’s how the store works. All the skins/models are in the game already. Each skin has a date attached to it if they’re going to be sold this season. Dataminers can see these files when download a new update. This how we can know which skins are releasing soon.

    Now it’s up to the servers to activate these scheduled skins to appear in the store. So yes the timers are accurate most of the time. Just be patient.

    I used to have a thread here whenever the store updates but I stopped doing that already. You don’t have to go to the game to check, just go the apexstore website or check hypermyst on youtube to know all the upcoming skins this season.

    @Cheese9Man 

    So does this mean someone already knows what skins will come in after the ALGS team skins and the Gibraltar and Mirage ones?

    @ModdedTurtles Yes that’s what I said. All the skins coming this season has been leaked. Just look at that youtube channel I’ve mentioned.

    Probably a hot take here, but this is the exact reason how f2p games target new players lmao with the wealth of endless high-priced cosmetics. Literally being a new player instead of one trying to learn the ropes of the game you are instead attracted to the heavily priced monetization and on the verge of FOMO that a single skin is gone.

    @FrOstPh03niX OP said in their first post, that they have been playing for a week (more at this point), have leveled up their account and nearly maxed the current Battle Pass, and found a Legend that they main (Valk), and now they are trying to figure out how to get their favorite skin for that Legend. It would seem to me, that they have already learned the ropes, and are at the point of repetition/practice to get better, but would like to look flashy whilst doing so, Lol

    So at the end of Hypermyst's video @Cheese9Man it says no recolors till July 19th, I know I sound like a broken record but would that possibly include the recolored skin I'm looking for? (Blue bomber idk if it counts as a recolor I mean I think it is since it's a recolored Birthright)

    @ModdedTurtles by no recolors he meant the ones you can buy with legend tokens, recolors of base skins (skins that you can unlock all the time) and birthright is not a base skin
