Heirloom melee weapons are added to Apex Legends each season. They are always incredibly rare and desirable despite not causing more damage to enemies. Instead, Heirloom melee weapons are wanted due to their cool appearance and their tie-in to the legends' backstory. Heirloom melee weapons have rare animations and easter eggs thatadd to the depth of the lorebehind certain agents.

One of the most popular is Mirage’s “Too Much Witt.” It’s a trophy that has rare animations and seems to have some lore secrets as well. One, in particular, is extremely hard to find, featuring a family photo. It first appeared in Pathfinder’s Quest lore book. It’s since appeared via data miners in Apex Legends' files before the Heirloom launched officially.

To the surprise of a few Apex Legends fans, lead writer Manny Hagopian answered fans on Twitter that were wondering about the easter egg.

“It was actually supposed to be this picture or the picture of Mirage and his family as a kid (the one in the lore book) but it apparently never made it in the game for some reason. The plan was to have it hidden on the trophy that you see randomly during rare inspections,” Hagopian said.
