The in ability to use crafting items in the store

I've spent over $1100-1200 on the game and been an avid supporter of it. Taking away our ability to craft store items or limiting what we can craft from the store just plain wrong. The crafting materials I've stock piled came at great expense. You basically only get crafting materials when you receive a duplicate item in an apex pack. But that comes at great expense, you only receive half the materials required to craft another item of similar rarity. Example you get a duplicate legendary skin you only receive 600 crafting materials, only half of what you need for another legendary item. So to craft 1 legendary item you essentially have to purchase 2.

I have unlocked most items in the game, including legendary items. There are handful that I do not have and I am not interested in. This is doing nothing but punishing the people who were your biggest supporters/spenders. 


I hope they don't attempt this with the next heirloom event. I'm essentially now stuck with a bunch of useless crafting materials I can't use on anything of value.

  • @DarthValtrex I agree with you here.

    How many crafting materials are you currently having?

    Also, just a side note... if you don't want to invest in your account anymore you can always invest in mine 😉

    I do think we need more customisation features in the game, especially when it comes to heirlooms... being able to use crafting materials to customise said item would be so cool!

    I think there should be a separate store area where you can use your crafting materials to get more skins that are rotated around.

    @rockyboy1998a lot, 22,000.. But I have opened a TON of packs. It's not that I don't want to spend money. I just don't think it's right that I have spent so much money and can't use the crafting materials to buy good items in the store. I've quit buying apex packs, there is no point all I get is crafting materials in over 70% of the packs. Now I really won't open them, what's the point?
