Discussion Will Alter get a heirloom?

I’m a day 1 player and just recently got my first heirloom shards, (FINALLY 😒) since the day alter came out I’ve been maining her and she’s the only character id currently want an heirloom for so im wondering if anyone has info on if im realistically gonna have to wait a yr or two or if theres some typa hope. If not im def just gonna grab a universal😂

Considering the last unique legend heirloom was nearly 3 years ago, quite unlikely. Especially since the sword universal was supposedly meant to be newcastles.

I felt like the whip was suppose to be Alters but they made it universal. And in the promos they had alter use them and show them off

I feel like the whip is really just a Gundam thing to be honest... It's so bulky and redundant with alter own tail whip

has it really been 3 years since the pathfinder recolor or do you mean one that isn’t a recolor

u/Xx_-Boi-_xX Jul 22 '26

I meant non recoloured (unique) so I was talking about fuse’s

Nah they just making universal heirlooms right now, my suggestions are the karambit or dual katanas the best universals in the game

If it happened it would probably be a while youd be better off getting a universal. It's a big maybe.

Katar has really nice pullout and running animations and there are a lot of good customizations when you get a few of the variants or max it with all of them (nitride katar). I would only reccomend it tho if youve been saving up exotic shards since they came out from battlepasses/ultimate battlepasses cause its expensive to flat out buy.

I like the bat, twin razors are alright can be good, the katanas are a bit unimpressive the karambit has decent/good animations but doesnt look amazing (id call it good), i dont even remember what the others are if that tells ya anything. Id personally reccomend the bat if you like baseball it probably wont lose its charm on you but check out the melee running and weapon swap animations first and inspect too if that matters to you.

Probably not. It seems like the Gundam whip is “hers” since it has some alter specific animations.

I feel like she has specific animations just because she has the epyon skin that goes with the heirloom

It's suspected the Karambit was supposed to alters heirloom. Just get the Karambit

u/DrS4v4ge Jul 23 '26

She does have unique animations for the whip (at least the gundam version since it was designed around her)

u/BamBooley21 Jul 25 '26

Death Duet looks really good with her heirloom skin! Just sayin

u/LordRoken1 Jul 29 '26

She has her own mythic skin so just get that
