Valorant’s 1.04 patch is out, and it takes intention at a number of of the sport’s normal suspects. As with a number of earlier patches–most lately 1.02–this one provides Viper some important buffs, together with adjusting the period of time that she will stay exterior of her ult Viper’s Pit from 5 to 12 seconds. While within the pit, enemies will now have their minimap obscured, and they won’t present minimap intel to their allies, both.In phrases of different characters, Brimstone and Raze acquired minor nerfs, with the price of each of their final skills modified from 6 factors to 7 factors. Given that they’ve two of one of the best ults within the recreation, this adjustment appears cheap. However, Brimstone’s Stim Beacon will now not present its impact radius to enemies or buff them, that means that it is considerably higher in sure conditions.As with nearly all patches, 1.04 introduces a number of bug fixes to the sport, most notably adjusting the Classic pistol’s right-click spread-fire to its meant accuracy ranges. It additionally contains plenty of beauty modifications to the sport, comparable to making minimap imaginative and prescient cones color-coded relying in your staff. Valorant’s earlier 1.03 patch rebalanced the Guardian rifle and altered the margins required for a staff to give up in unranked play.Valorant 1.04 Patch NotesAGENT UPDATESVIPERViper’s PitMax time exterior of her ult earlier than it collapses modified from 5>>>12 secondsViper can maintain the flexibility key to drop her ult earlyEnemies in Viper’s Pit have their minimap obscured and don’t present minimap detection to their alliesIncreased the brightness of the crimson enemy glow on the fringe of Viper’s near-sightWith Viper being allowed out of her ult for such a brief time frame, we felt that she was not solely restricted within the performs she may make, but in addition gave an excessive amount of steady info to her enemies. The capacity to maneuver exterior the ult smoke extra freely ought to present some new and attention-grabbing thoughts video games for Viper to play—and hopefully places the strategic strain again on the enemy. The different enhancements ought to push Viper’s benefit in her personal smoke and assist her keep away from getting traded by enemies utilizing minimap imaginative and prescient to focus on her.DecayEnemy decay per second elevated from 10 to 15 from all sources.After exiting Viper’s smoke, enemy decay sustains for two.5 seconds earlier than beginning to fadeViper’s decay depleting so rapidly from enemies was limiting the benefit it supplied and wasn’t creating the menace we had hoped for in consequence. Adding a delay earlier than it fades will hopefully widen the window the place Viper and her staff can capitalize and pair with the Viper’s Pit updates (above) to offer contemporary methods to play round her ult.FuelHaving each Poison Cloud and Toxic Screen energetic doesn’t eat extra gasoline past the price of having one energeticThe discount in whole uptime when each her imaginative and prescient blockers have been energetic was making it troublesome for Viper to make use of each instruments collectively. Since Viper’s smoke has a lot dedication and makes up a lot of her package, we need to free her to make use of them in tandem to create highly effective choices for her staff to take websites.RAZEShowstopper final Cost modified from 6 to 7 Ult factorsRaze’s final is without doubt one of the most impactful within the recreation and helpful in nearly any state of affairs. As a outcome, it’s getting used a bit too usually. So we’re upping the associated fee by 1, which ought to assist cut back how usually gamers must face her Showstopper.BRIMSTONEOrbital Strike final value modified from 6 to 7 Ult pointsMuch like Raze’s Ultimate, Brimstone’s Ult may be very impactful and helpful in all kinds of conditions. We really feel prefer it was impacting rounds a bit of too steadily, so determined to up the associated fee barely.Stim Beacon now not Buffs enemies and now not reveals its impact radius to enemiesThe Stim beacon is supposed to be a fairly situational capacity however we felt that revealing Brimstone’s location and having the potential to by accident buff enemies was making this capacity considerably weaker than we’d like.Brimstone’s Arms FidelityWhen you actually take into consideration an FPS, you’ll discover you spend an terrible period of time your arms…like on a regular basis.
