Bangalore’s mains have something else to look forward to in Apex Legends’ new Chaos Theory event. The soldier will receive his own inheritance item next week – and players who complete the last collection will receive it as a bonus.
Bangalore’s heritage is a nod to his past as an IMC soldier and a significant part of his history: the search for his brother Jackson, who, she believes, is still alive after an accident.
How to get the Bangalore heritage set
The set is available when completing the Chaos Theory collection. Doing so will require a lot Apex Coins and craft materials, however. There are 24 cosmetics to choose from and players who unlock them all will receive the Bangalore heirloom set as an extra reward.
Players who crave the relic may consider using their handcrafted metals to make a mark on the collection, collecting epic items. Acquiring them early will take them out of Apex Loot pack, which yields an event item – a 50-50 chance of having an epic or legendary.
The inheritance set will go to the Inheritance Store after the event is over, however, and any player will be able to acquire it – if they are lucky enough to obtain fragments of inheritance, that is. The elusive currency is the rarest item in Apex and it is guaranteed to drop after 500 open packs, although most players are nowhere near that number.
The significance of Bangalore’s heritage
Like most other inheritance items, the Bangalore knife has a particular meaning. She took the weapon from a defeated fighter and “she made it herself”, according to the official blog post. And players can identify their own personal touch in the form of bottle caps on the scabbard – a gift from his brother Jackson, as seen in Pathfinder search.
The book builds on the Williams family’s farewell tradition. Whenever a member is assigned to the action, the Williams family throws a huge party in honor of the soldier, with food and drinks at will and several guests – “friends, family, neighbors, even the person of daily deliveries”, according with Bangalore.
The real ritual, however, occurs after the party is over. The immediate relatives open a last beer. And after they finish, they take the cap from the bottle and tie it to a leather rope.
“We make a leather bracelet and put it on the wrist of the person who is leaving,” she says in the book. “The bottle cap of the last beer you drank with your family. A piece of us is with them, wherever they go in the galaxy. “
The book shows a photo of a bottle cap bracelet made by Bangalore’s brother Jackson, his closest relative, whose fate is still unknown. He disappeared aboard the IMS Hestia over Solace after the ship was hit by “a strange accident” – a grenade that broke through the ship’s hull and put Jackson in orbit.
Most people claim that Jackson died, but Bangalore believes he is still alive. “He put on his backpack every morning,” she said in the book. “And the last time I saw him, his eyes were open. And he was smiling at me. He’s out there somewhere. ”
Jackson’s disappearance hit Bangalore hard. The two were inseparable as they grew up. They were a year apart and competed in almost everything: “From the moment we could walk, it had to be better than him. […] It was not malicious or malicious. It was just … what we did, “she confesses in the book.
They were both challenged to prove who Williams’ best brother was – a scorecard listing a series of achievements and tasks that began around early childhood and persisted into adulthood. The first to get 100 points would win.
Inseparable as they were, the two were tied for 99-99 and the tiebreaker would go to whoever got their first assignment or graduated first. Jackson was in line to take his orders first, but he willingly gave Bangalore the victory, “because my name started with A and I graduated seven seconds before him,” she tells Pathfinder.
The bottle cap on the cover is a reminder of all that Bangalore has lost. Most of his family was on Gridiron, a planet that is at least 20 years away due to normal travel. It is also a sign of appreciation for Jackson, a close brother – and someone who is still somewhere in the Outland, according to her.
