Hi, heirloom shards aren't cumulative, it's still something that can drop randomly with a low chance, or is guaranteed after 500 pack openings. 

Unfortunately there isn't a way to directly see your progress towards this 500 pack guarantee. Sorry for any confusion caused.

Hey, I think you may be misremembering, the devstream section here notes that the drop rates will be the same.

@DeEchols I hope so, but we haven't received any indication on if it'll happen. 

@sass0frass That absolutely shouldn't happen. If you check your purchase history you can use that/and compare against direct purchases to see how many packs were bought.
