When will i get an heirloom?

I played for a long time took a pause and then started again. I can gaurantee i opened more then 500 packs. I had and finished a multiple battlepasses long ago and almost finished this seasons and am 393ed level atm. I still didnt get a single heirloom was there a change? Is it still that it is guaranteed a heirloom after 500 packs? Is there a way to check how many packs i actually opened that isnt the pack calculator since i dont remember the passes from long ago? 

Thanks in advance!

  • The community made countless requests to add the pack counter to the game, but this is EA we're talking about.

    Do you truly think that EA will make any effort to improve the quality of life changes for players... for free? Please.

    Greed is EA's motto, and they won't do anything for anyone if it doesn't get them money.

  • All you can do is just hope that soon enough, you will get your heirloom.
    Otherwise, there is nothing you can do to tell how many more packs til guaranteed heirloom : ) 

  • A couple of things.  I am a day zero player and I have a whopping 2, 2 herimlooms.  A) It doesn't matter, nobody cares.  The 500 count is accurate.  You can't keep track of if (and it would be nice if they added a counter, true) but you are not being "diddled" out of you heirloom.  I honestly don't understand the obsession.  It's a cosmetic.  If the guy kills you or is killed by you they don't care.  Its' literally not a big deal.

  • Oh, additional context.  I am probably about level 1300.   You aren't even close to me yet.  I've got 2.  Stop your complaining.

    It's not about not having the heirloom but not knowing when you will get it, therefore not knowing how much more you have to invest.

    You don't have to invest anything, over time you will eventually get one.  The current events giving you 20 packs will surely help that.

    **bleep**, you're right! EA is so generous that after years and years, seasons after seasons, we get 80 free packs (altogether). ''WOW, so kind.''

    Do you understand that we would get a total of 0 packs if the events weren't run by Apex Legends streamers? You are cherishing that we are getting FEW packs after all these years?

    80 is not ''few'', but it's NOTHING after millions of hours played on this game by all of us combined.

     

    Also, you are right, we will get the packs eventually, but why not just let us know when we will get it? There are thousands of impatient controller kids, if they were 20-40 packs away, they would buy them in an instant. 

    More money for the Greed Company, a peace of mind for the rest of us. There are only advantages by adding an apex pack counter.

  • My thing about heirloom is it feels smoother than hands and u can tell easier when switching weapons. Im lvl 502 on my account and opened so many packs and still don’t have 1 my last account was day 1 prolly around lvl 890 got banned for talking trash and only had 1 heirloom so really its pay to win or play for hours and hours on this game just to get heirloom. I’m having problem with servers like 30 ping and it’ll jump hit 200-300 ping and freeze my game im the only person on my WiFi and it’s so dog to get frozen mid fight. I’m on the closest server and still lag when I haven’t before so yea that’s fun.

  • SlurrrpMeUpLuigi​ I didn't say any of that.  I just said it would help.  Packs are almost always junk anyway so, personally, I don't think it's a big deal.  Sorry, I just don't get the obession with heirlooms; I just don't.  I agreed that a pack counter would be useful.  But, to me, it's not a big deal.  Just play the game.

    To me, bigger issues are things like match making and the like.  Cosmetics aren't important.
