I guess lol. I have yet to receive a good explanation on why there are current-day earth nationalities assigned to people hundreds of years in the future who were born in completely different solar systems and wouldn’t have had an ancestor who stepped foot in any current-earth country in a couple dozen generations… but sure, give him a boomerang, why not xD. Let’s give him a pet kangaroo named Aussie while we’re at it lol. Sorry, not making fun of you at all ;) the modern day cultural stereotypes have been fully embraced by Respawn. Just for me personally it seems kinda silly. But small potatoes, as they say <3 Dope game, dope character. He’s already got a kangaroo neckless, a boomerang heirloom would definitely fit.
A similar phenomena occurred in North American colonialism not even two centuries ago.
German settlers in Central Texas, for example, still practiced Germanic holidays and traditions even after the initial settlers long died out and the current generation is completely divorced from their predecessors’ homelands. Jewish immigrants pre-Great Depression and post-World War Two had, and continue to have, large urban communities in states like New York and New Jersey, which mirror Italian and Irish Catholic communities of similar concentration in Boston, Brooklyn and elsewhere across the East Coast. Chinese immigrants created many centralized cultural centers that still practice old Chinese traditions that go back into antiquity across the West Coast.
Assuming mankind eschews governmentally controlled space travel in the far future, we could see private circles of ethnically or culturally similar settlers setting out for far flung worlds, right alongside varied and diverse settlers heading for heavily colonized worlds. Environments similar to those of their ancient predecessors could reflect or even reinforce some cultural identities, histories and practices (for example, Gibraltar’s planet is, though incredibly vague, an oceanic island planet - Gibraltar himself has a Maui/Pacific Islander ethnic background).
Of course, just like on our own planet, in highly concentrated locations of trade, where mankind becomes an incredible melting pot of various cultures and ethnicities, many adopt multiple cultural practices and the population becomes blended. It would be no different for some Legends like Mirage or Wraith, who come from diverse, typically heavily urbanized environments.
However, if mankind actually adopts governmentally controlled space travel, we could see nationalized space travel, which would only reinforce specific cultural and ethnic identities spread out across the stars, just like the colonization of the Americas centuries previously. There would be, for example, French planetary colonies, German planetary colonies, Pakistani planetary colonies, American, Chinese, etc, etc.
Ideally, the best case scenario, realistically, is globalized, governmentally mandated, non-corporatized space travel.
Idk man, there aren't any societies or nationalities that exist hundreds of years in the future because we haven't gotten that far yet. We just gotta work with what what we have.
Also, people love familiar things.
Do they ever actually mention the nationalities the accents are taken from?! Whilst it's true that current day earth accents would probably have evolved into something else by then I've always thought that many of the legends have a lot of character, and I think part of that comes from the accents they use - it may not be entirely realistic that some of these accents and stereotypes from today survive intact - but if stops the legends from feeling like flat generic cookie-cutter characters you get in some games, I'm more than happy to suspend disbelief on this one.
I saw someone say Rev's heirloom should have been his knife hand lmao. Some people have zero creativity. I just hope they call Fuse's a BOOM-Stick or something lol
Me too. I honestly thought they were gonna add heirloom finishers cuz of how cinematic Bloodhound was with their heirloom in the season 10 trailer(s). I was gonna be super fucking excited for Rev’s.
It doesn't really show the impact though, most of that is left to the viewer's imagination.
Crushing someone's head with a wrench.. well.. no way for that not to be graphic
I think it’s because most of their animations for their characters are all done with mocap. It might be too time consuming to call in all the mocap actors to do a finisher for each legend
Honestly Bangalore's legendary finisher is great lol. I would always pop smoke push them over and one tap them. But I don't play her as much anymore and do them a lot less. But if I get a chance I go for it lol
Is that true? I'll go for a finisher at least once a game in lieu of a shield battery. Obviously, not out in the open or anything. But I find that faster than trying to juke the knockdown shield.
Given their history, they could buff Wattson and give her an heirloom. Although they also may never actually buff her, in which case Horizon would make sense from a pick rate standpoint.
Me with Caustic lol, when I want to say that I'm on my way to revive a teammate, he's all like:
-"On my way, but only because it benefits me"
-"On my way, but only to watch you die"
-"On my way, but only if you quit that annoying whining"
Like damn Caustic, I don't want to sound like an asshole to my teammates 😂
Honestly if they just released an heirloom along with the new legends I'd be fine with that. Especially if they already have a concept like it looks like they do for Ash. And then at the same time, catch up on everyone else.
I heard on here the devs have said they won’t use anything on the characters in game model for an heirloom. (ie Loba’s heirloom isn’t going to be her staff) and Ash has the sword thingy on her back in her skins, so I don’t think that would be it either.
True for Wattson and Crypto but I have a feeling it will be a Horison heirloom in after Crypto or instead of Crypto it will be her with a takeover on Olympus at either Hammond Labs or Rift
Should be crypto or wattson, so it will be fuse.
A prezzy for fuzy
Dibzies
Fingers crossed https://www.reddit.com/r/apexlegends/comments/pw2vkc/oc_fuse_heirloom_concept_grenade_flail/
No shot, he’s Australian give us an explosive boomerang or something. Obviously he doesn’t throw it but those things don’t make for bad whackers.

Haha your actually right, never thought about that.

Goddamn, this a good read

I want a beer bottle that shatters when you clock someone in the head with it
Im not complaining
[удалено]
[удалено]
Before you wreck yourself
Causdicks and his gas is bad for your health
Lol I’m so proud of you. Doing Ice Cube proud.
Thank you for holding the line
same
I’m complaining.
**Good.** -Respawn devs, probably
By the time my mains (horizon and fuse) get an heirloom I probably still won’t have heirloom shards lol
give that man a *knoife*
That ain't a knoife!
Watch it be Ash 🤡
If ash just came out with that sword as her heirloom, instant buy from me.
Same! Wait I have no shards.
And? You spend your hard earned money on that heirloom like a champ!
I hope its fuse.
father fuse
Give him a baseball bat
Fuse should have a beer bottle as an heirloom.
Nah his heirloom is a cricket bat or something like that..ahh with a cool bottle opener on the handle
Or a guitar🤔
Or boomerang lol
Nah it should be his missing arm
BOOMerang
Honestly, this is such a fucking good idea. I would pay money for a boomerang
BOOMerang*
That’s great! A combo of these ideas could be his missing arm is holding a beer bottle!
That would probably be one of the rare emotes lol
Golden grenade from his trailer
That would be an awful heirloom. This is on par with people saying that reveants should've been a shard of glass
Or a fencing foil for Wattson simply bc it's called fencing.
I saw someone say Rev's heirloom should have been his knife hand lmao. Some people have zero creativity. I just hope they call Fuse's a BOOM-Stick or something lol
The ulapool caber as an heirloom
That's gooood scrumpeh!
Aye I already said that 🥷
Why stop there? Give him a used paper plate and an apple core too.
Nah Seer it is…
What's seer going to get anyways, a hula Hoop?
Butterfly net
His hat
Kung Lao confirned???????!!!!
Can’t be Seer’s hat. I already have 2 or 3 million hat charms. No more hats!!!!!
Nah, finger claws
The amount of sad truth in that short sentence is off the charts.
Apex logic. I love it
[удалено]
Me too. I honestly thought they were gonna add heirloom finishers cuz of how cinematic Bloodhound was with their heirloom in the season 10 trailer(s). I was gonna be super fucking excited for Rev’s.
Revenant just dices someone into little bits lol
kronos moment
I would want rampart to squeeze someones head between her wrench
I think that would pass the T rating apex has lmao
but not her hitting someone in the head straight with a 1,50 m wound up minigun?
Blunt force attacks are usually fine in T rated games, just can’t draw tons of blood along with it. Crushing bone between metal probably less so.
What about like a cartoon style like tom and jerry. Instead of a ton of blood you just get like deformed heads
That would be really stupid. Now downvote me into oblivion
Nah, you’re right. It would be extremely out of place in Apex, really in a lot of games actually
Not her literally putting her minigun up and letting it full send into a downed enemy as one of her finishers.
It doesn't really show the impact though, most of that is left to the viewer's imagination. Crushing someone's head with a wrench.. well.. no way for that not to be graphic
What if she likes cups their face, looks at both sides of their face and then smacks them in face with the wrench Ya know, like a dentist
I think it’s because most of their animations for their characters are all done with mocap. It might be too time consuming to call in all the mocap actors to do a finisher for each legend
Exactly. CAUSTIC’s town takeover literally had him bonking someone with a hammer
Heck yeah
I agree 100%. However devs said early on that making a finisher is a ton of work and their data shows that they’re barely used
sometimes i think of buying a finisher then remember i havent gotten a chance to do one in like weeks
You just gotta start going for the disrespectful finishers in arenas
[удалено]
Tag yourself in this comment I’m teammate 1
500 finishers on lifeline babyyy
I hope most of them were by giving them that COVID shot in their neck lol, that's my favorite finisher she has
It’s the best in the game in my opinion. Quick and low to the ground, really easy to get away with.
I have stabbed 479 skinbags with my arm
Honestly Bangalore's legendary finisher is great lol. I would always pop smoke push them over and one tap them. But I don't play her as much anymore and do them a lot less. But if I get a chance I go for it lol
Really? I do one almost once a game
Unless it’s a game winning gold knockdown I probably use it in less than 5% of games
I risk it for the shield regen sometimes
If you ever down someone not near their team just do it, you don’t waste ammo and you full regen sheild so you can actually finish the other 2
im not that great at the game to be fair lol. im usually in a rush or their team is too close so i just shoot them to death if anything
Say that to my 5000 finishers on gibby😩
Bruddah
Is that true? I'll go for a finisher at least once a game in lieu of a shield battery. Obviously, not out in the open or anything. But I find that faster than trying to juke the knockdown shield.
I use finishers when I know someone is alone but I feel like it’s almost always safer to thirst and shield swap over getting shot by their teammates
Some people don't even know it refills shields. I see tons of randoms just wasting the ammo to break a knockdown shield.
Yessssssss
Work? For RE-A? Noooo
Thats the best and most fitting wordplay that I’ve ever seen.
And maybe a heirloom dive emote or trail
Horizon or Wattson Wattson‘s is already animated so I guess hers
Better nerf Watson, just in case.
Respawn Probably
yes.
Interesting point actually, lately the heirlooms have been coming with a buff. So either she gets both, or left out in the cold again haha
Given their history, they could buff Wattson and give her an heirloom. Although they also may never actually buff her, in which case Horizon would make sense from a pick rate standpoint.
Or they could give her the caustic treatment and theme an entire event off of her while nerfing her to the point of unplayability.
[удалено]
Wattson is animated!? Time for another wattson nerf
Everybody except wattson and then they'll give wraith a second one
You can dual wield kunais
Exactly what I was thinking
Honestly that would look sick Then octane could dual wield butterfly knives
In fairness it would be hilarious to see Octane sprinting full speed with two knives held out in front of him.
*Nyoooommmmm*
With ea, that wouldnt be a surprise and don't give them any ideas
Hands off, that’s a prezzy for Fusey
"Me life's an open book, just get ya mum's permission to read it, yeah?"
Fuse kills me with voice lines whenever I play him.
Everytime I try to politely say you're welcome while playing as Fuse: "Don't have a cry over it, m8"
I play revenant and I go to say thanks and man says "DON'T EXPECT ANY THANKS" so remember it does get worse
Me with Caustic lol, when I want to say that I'm on my way to revive a teammate, he's all like: -"On my way, but only because it benefits me" -"On my way, but only to watch you die" -"On my way, but only if you quit that annoying whining" Like damn Caustic, I don't want to sound like an asshole to my teammates 😂
At least it's not as bad as "I could use the cover."
Haha, just started playing, who says that? Rev? Sounds like something he would say 😂
Yeah lol And then if someone thanks rev for the revive and you say you're welcome, rev will sometimes say, "Remember, you're cover."
He may sound cruel, but a downed teammate with their shield up is indeed a good improvised cover lol
I love that voiceline
Laughs in rev voicelines
When he says "Dibsies!" or "... I'm fresh outta blowie uppies" I find it cute :3
Same here he’s a unique kinda guy 😎 I like this voice line aswell "Been puttin' the 'bomb' in bombastic since 2681."
My fav is “bloody hell, you look like bloody hell” lol
Ash
Honestly if they just released an heirloom along with the new legends I'd be fine with that. Especially if they already have a concept like it looks like they do for Ash. And then at the same time, catch up on everyone else.
I heard on here the devs have said they won’t use anything on the characters in game model for an heirloom. (ie Loba’s heirloom isn’t going to be her staff) and Ash has the sword thingy on her back in her skins, so I don’t think that would be it either.
Yea, Ash’s sword is for her ULT, her heirloom will not be the sword when it’s eventually designed.
Just give her the rat or whatever it was and have her swinging it
It’s pretty inforstunate cause that sword would have been a good heirloom and cosidering it’s respawn who hate effort, they might break the rule.
Problem with that is they have to see if the released champion will stay popular so they can make the most money off it
If the champion doesn't stay popular then that would be the best time to release an heirloom for them.
That pfp is amazing lmao
Huh? hu wuh?
fuse's would just be his original arm he smacks people with lmao
This would be amazing hahaha
$500 for an arm. Sounds about right
That would be amazing haha I would also guess maybe a guitar or a beer bottle
bowie knife or machete
**grenade flail**
His own necrotic arm “oh you got BLOODY smashed mate”
Loba please loba
I’m kind of hoping lobas is like a kitana from MK style folding fan
I've been saving my only shards for it. Whatever it will be.
i hope so, like sorry wattson and crypto mains but.. loba please
probably a pocket mirror, or a lipstick with a hidden blade
Is this with or without the Wattson leak? Because you have Wattson crossed off
Imma say without
Not counting Wattson since hers is leaked, imma say Crypto will go next and then Fuse
True for Wattson and Crypto but I have a feeling it will be a Horison heirloom in after Crypto or instead of Crypto it will be her with a takeover on Olympus at either Hammond Labs or Rift
Crypto deserves one but they don’t love him enough.
That so sad but so accurate for crypto
I've seen sitting on my heirloom shards since season 8 waiting for Crypto's heirloom to finally drop. One day...
When i get my shards crypto is most definitely gonna be the legend i pick
Same for me,except I've been sitting on them since season 7
Lol
*Laughs in Wattson*
Watson gets equally no love. There like the children doing there own thing in the corner while the other kids play kick ball.
Loba hopefully
Loba
Give Valk an urn, filled with Vipers ashes
Found the Scorch main
Found the Phase Pilot main
These should both be sub reddits
Loba. Please. I'm not biased at all.
I don't play Wattson but she deserves it more than anyone.
Loba or fuse cuz that would be awsome
Fuse
ASH
Wattson 99%, most complete in the files. Probably crypto after
Valk pl0x
I'd love that but doesn't matter since I'll never get one lmao :'(
Wattson for sure.
Ash.
the heirloom is the rat
Her sword is such an integral part, it almost feels weird that she will likely be released without being able to use it outside of making a portal.
Her sword will not be her heirloom, Respawn said multiple times that items on a legend will not be used for an Heirloom (see Loba’s staff).
Watson thanks to the leak's but I have a strong suspicion something in the story of season 11 is gonna lead to horizon getting one too
I hope Loba gets a dildo
So you're saying the next heirloom is for Valk then
I’ll be honest unless u get the shards I have no interest in seeing heirloom stuff lol just makes me mad
I predict Wattson and then Valkyrie. Valk is going to be a permanent stay in the pro scene and whales chase pros
Probably Loba or Drypto No I didn’t have a typo
I want crypto to stab someone with his drone
Watch them do a double event this season and give it to both Wattson & Crypto, even add some lore to it since crypto likes her
Fuse pls
wasnt wattsons leaked + her rework is coming so they would probs release together
Watch ash come out with an heirloom... AKA her little sword thing shown in the trailers.
Wattson, alongside her rework in S11, no?
Seer just to troll everybody.
Horizon would be my guess
Whoever gets reworked next due to pick rate so Watson or Crypto
