rioter 1: "UNBENCH THE KENCH"

rioter 2: "oh definitely, i'm a big fan of j cole"

I really hope there is a cap to the xp needed for each tier at a certain point. If it constantly goes up by 1000 each level that's just insane. Other games have battle passes that are actually possible to complete without investing 500 hours a week to do. People have lives outside the game, why do they expect us to play so much nonstop after we already paid for it?
Same issue goes with League of Legends, the passes are just insane amounts of grind.

Hijacking the top comment for visibility. TLDR: The battlepass will take ~100 hours to complete.

Weekly XP's also scale up in every week to smooth out the experience curves. Just to give you an idea, the first set of weeklies offer 28,350 total XP and the last set of weeklies offer 60,750 total XP. This will help make sure that you're still able to progress through levels at a healthy clip towards the tail end of a battle pass (rather than just stalling out at the later levels).

Hello! Really enjoying the game. I have a question I was considering making a thread about, but here you are!

Does the extra 20% apply to purchased valorant points only, or does it take into account the purchased valorant points AND the bonus points?

For example, if I spend $99 in the beta, I get 9500+ 1500 bonus valorant points, for a total of 11,000.

If it includes the bonus points, I expect to receive 13,200 valorant points when the game launches. However, if it only applies to the 'purchased' points, we're looking at 11,400. This is a difference of 1800 valorant points. This is significant, as that's 1-2 high tier skins.

My bad math skills tell me the valorant point bonus is ~15% at $99, ~13% at $49, ~10% at $34, ~8% at $19, ~6% at $9, and 0% at $5. If the policy only applies to purchased points, by spending more in the beta, you're in a way rewarded less(5% extra vs a full 20%).

Just trying to understand how this works so I can make educated decisions with my money. Thanks for making a great game and I look forward to seeing what else hits the shop!

It takes into account the bonus VP as well. So whatever the total VP you get and add +20% on top

Any chance you could give some insight into your thought process for the monetization of the game? What were your priorities, challenges you faced, etc. Would love to learn from a veteran!

We'll probably dive more into this later at some point. The focus now is making sure the game is fun and stable. :)

Nah you don’t. Rioters choose if they want to have the Riot tag at the front of their name
