When it comes to cosmetics in Apex Legends, none are more sought-after than the Legend-specific Heirlooms. These unbelievably rare items can only be obtained during limited-time collection events or at a 1 in 500 drop rate in packs, so it\u2019s safe to say players have to be extremely dedicated to get their hands on one. The latest Legend to be receiving her very own Heirloom is Wattson in the Raiders Collection event, set to kick off on December 7. Ahead of the update, Respawn revealed the full design of the Energy Reader, as well as showcasing all of the special animations. Unfortunately, the Heirloom has received an overwhelming amount of criticism from the community, with players labeling it as \u201cugly\u201d and \u201cdisappointing\u201d. Apex Legends players are not happy with Wattson\u2019s Heirloom After dropping the Raiders Collection event patch notes on December 2, it wasn\u2019t long before Wattson\u2019s Energy Reader Heirloom was posted to the Apex Legends subreddit, with a thread showcasing all of the animations. Players quickly began to criticize Respawn\u2019s design choice, questioning why the devs decided to create an \u201cugly\u201d supermarket price scanner instead of an actual weapon: \u201cSo many cool concepts of a legend who is about freaking electricity, they went with a price scanner instead.\u201d Others just expressed their overwhelming disappointment after waiting so long for their main Legend to receive an Heirloom: \u201cIt\u2019s such a disappointment for me personally, easily the worst heirloom so far, don\u2019t like the idea at all.\u201d On Twitter, alphaINTEL asked their followers whether they loved or hated the new design, and the responses were mixed. Wattson Heirloom\u2026 Love it or hate it? pic.twitter.com\/VzeL9mdzwR \u2014 Apex Legends News (@alphaINTEL) December 3, 2021 For some, it wasn\u2019t that they hated the design, it was more that they expected more after waiting so long for Wattson\u2019s Heirloom to be released: \u201cI feel like all the Wattson Mains deserved something better for waiting so long.\u201d Of course, not everyone agreed, with some players loving the unique design and praising the way it integrates Nessie into the Heirloom: \u201cI think it has a unique design compared to anything else out there and they added a very cool concept to integrate the Nessie.\u201d Either way, the Heirloom will be arriving on December 7 and the community will finally be able to see the Energy Reader in action. As with any cosmetic, the design will always come down to preference, but it\u2019ll be interesting to see if Respawn makes any tweaks after the reaction from the community.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apex Legends players disappointed by Wattson\u2019s \u201cugly\u201d Heirloom Respawn EntertainmentAfter revealing Wattson\u2019s Heirloom in the Raiders Collection event patch notes, Apex Legends players are not happy with Respawn\u2019s \u201cdisappointing\u201d design.
