  • The base heirlooms can be upgraded to Tier 2 (usable up to level 90) and Tier 3 (usable up to level 100) in exchange for emblems that will be obtained as a reward for some tasks completed within the game.


It's a rough translation from the EU forum on MMO-C.
I really like the sound of this change. I just started a new 5 RAF accounts for 5-boxing using keys I bought from the Black Friday Sale and miss the heirlooms I have on my main accounts. This would let us buy at least the base heirloom items for gold which would be great for new accounts.
