VALORANT Patch 10.02 Notes – All Changes and Fixes

VALORANT is a highly-played online multiplayer game within the gaming community, particularly the tactical shooter genre, boasting thousands of players daily. Given its vast array of characters and abilities, it’s not uncommon for the developers to release updates like the one in today’s 10.02 patch, addressing issues when certain abilities fail to function correctly.

Here’s the full breakdown of bug fixes coming to VALORANT in Patch 10.02.

VALORANT 10.02 Patch Notes

In the latest VALORANT Update 10.02, there aren’t many notable gameplay alterations or enhancements, except for one adjustment to Killjoy’s Alarmbot. The main focus of this update is on squashing bugs, particularly those affecting agent abilities that weren’t functioning as intended. Here are the bug fixes implemented:

In VALORANT Patch 10.02, there aren’t many significant gameplay tweaks or upgrades, but one exception is a modification to Killjoy’s Alarmbot. Mostly, this update addresses various bugs, particularly those affecting agent abilities that were malfunctioning. The following changes are what was addressed:

  • Vyse: Fixed an issue where Arc Rose and Razorvine were visible when placedon specific water surfaces.
  • Tejo: Fixed an issue where players could rarely survive running straight through the full duration of Armageddon.
  • Killjoy: Fixed an issue where Killjoy’s recall minimap indicator could get stuck in a state where it was invisible.
  • Killjoy: Alarmbot logic has been updated to be more intelligent.
    • In niche circumstances, the Alarmbot will now path towards players if they are on ledges and explode on them if they would be hit by the size of the explosion rather than trying to run extremely long paths around the map.
  • Fixed an issue where certain types of damage could leave players with Regen Shields at 1 HP when the damage should have been lethal.
    • This also fixed issues where Clove could tank lethal damage specifically when Regen Shield and Pick Me Up were active at the same time.
  • Fixed a bug where Observers were seeing inconsistent player team outline colors.

The following fixes to Premier, VALORANT’s seasonal competitive mode, apply only to PC players:

  • Fixed an issue where long team names could overlap each other on the playoff bracket screen.
  • Fixed an issue where dropdowns on the standings sometimes cut off text.
  • Fixed an issue where the division name text was not always correctly aligned on the match history screen

Ever since the beginning of the season, Tejo has been a well-loved addition among both competitive and professional gamers. Yet, his ultimate ability, Armageddon, didn’t always manage to kill opponents when it was at its maximum force. But with the update in patch 10.02, anyone caught in the full duration will indeed meet their end.

As a die-hard VALORANT enthusiast, I can’t help but notice that Patch 10.02 has brought about a significant shift in the game – and that’s largely due to Killjoy’s Alarmbot gaining some smart upgrades! Previously, if you were perched on a ledge above the Alarmbot, you could feel relatively safe. However, those days are gone now; the Alarmbot no longer spares anyone who dares to be above it, making the gameplay more challenging and exciting for everyone!
