Loot Box and Customization
Loot Boxes are divided into four categories – Common, Rare, Epic and Legendary. Every loot box has atleast one rare item and the items are randomized. So this might ensure that the player gets duplicate cosmetic items. Sell these duplicate ones for extra credits to get new loot boxes.
To use the cosmetics from the loot box, open the main menu and go to ‘Hero Gallery’. Select the hero and select the appropriate customization options there.
