Riot Games has revealed the patch notes for Valorant update 6.10 which are headlined by the brand new Spray Wheel making its way to the game, as well as some much-needed fixes for Yoru.
Valorant's latest update has finally brought the highly requested Spray Wheel to the game. Before now, Valorant players could only equip one spray at a time which – lets face it – simply isn't enough (especially when contemporaries like Fortnite and Overwatch have had this feature for years). Thankfully this issue is over as Valorant 6.10 lets players equip multiple sprays, while also retaining the ability to quick spray with the spray equipped at the top of your wheel.
Meanwhile, Yoru mains can celebrate as Fakeout has finally been repaired. Fixes include removing the issue that would cause a delay for the concussion debuff and removing the bug where Yoru's echo would sometimes not have a weapon equipped (making it far easier to spot). So Yoru mains can now feel safe bringing him into their Valorant Premier matches.
Other changes include some new voice lines for Reyna when interacting with Gekko, Chamber, and KAY/O for those Valorant lore fanatics to comb over. While Brimstone's Sky Smoke and Orbital Strike have been buffed to be more in line with how they were before patch 6.08.
Valorant 6.10 patch notes
Spray Wheel, Collections Rework, Spray Equip Flow Improvements
- Added an in-game Spray Wheel, which can be activated by holding your chosen Spray Keybind.
- Retained Quick Spray functionality by tapping your chosen Spray Keybind. This will use the Spray located at the top slot of your wheel.
- Added new equip flow for the Spray Wheel located in the Collections page.
- Replaced the Spray Carousel with a Grid that can be searched, filtered, and sorted by Favourites.
- Added an audio queue and visible timer to indicate cooldowns on the Spray Wheel.
- Added an “Empty Spray” to allow a user to empty their Wheel or keybind.
- Added a text and image to indicate pre- or post-round only sprays.
- Added settings to the Settings page under Controls -> Equipment to better customize your spraying experience (This includes a sensitivity slider, the ability to turn off the wheel entirely, and separate the keybinds.)
- Removed the “wall” texture to display Sprays on the Spray Screen.
Agent updates
Brimstone
- Updated the size of Brimstone’s Sky Smoke (E) and Orbital Strike (X) targeting reticles so that they match their size before the update that shipped in patch 6.08.
- Removed the mouse cursor that was displayed on Brimstone's Sky Smoke (E) and Orbital Strike (X), and Omen's From the Shadows (X).
Misc.
- Updated Fade’s in-game portrait for better gameplay readability and quality consistency.
- Updated Harbor’s in-game portrait for better gameplay readability and quality consistency.
- Updated some Agent portraits to be higher resolution.
- Improved the hitbox on KAY/O’s ZERO/Point (E) so shooting the handle of the knife destroys it.
- Added new lines for Reyna to develop her relationships with new and existing Agents
- Added new Reyna Voiceover Lines and interaction lines with Gekko, Chamber, and KAY/O.
Cosmetics updates
- The RGX 11z Pro EP 4 Gun Buddy and Oni EP 6 Gun Buddy now have the variant shift feature on their corresponding older bundles. You can now put your RGX EP 4 Gun Buddy on your Vandal and it shifts its colour just like it does in the Phantom—no more mix and match!
Gameplay systems updates
- Updated fonts to fix missing character glyphs that occur in some languages.
Bug fixes
Agents
- Fixed an issue where Yoru’s Fakeout (C) would min flash you if you were outside of its conal range of effect.
- Fixed issue that was causing a slight delay between sources of concussion hitting you and the actual effects of the debuff being applied.
- Fixed a bug where Yoru’s Fakeout (C) echo would sometimes not have a weapon equipped.
- The weapon that Yoru’s Fakeout (C) echo equips should now use a more accurate weapons skin.
- Killjoy spent some time in the workshop hammering out bugs that were causing her Turret (E) to aim at the ground. (Fixed in Patch 6.09)
Gameplay Systems Updates
- Fixed a rare issue where you can see ghost enemies when they’ve entered line of sight.
- Fixed an issue where under certain conditions, you can continue to defuse the Spike out of line of sight.
Known issues
Spray Wheel
- The Spray Wheel can be called in the Range, however, you can’t spray in the Range. We’ve never been able to spray in the Range, so this isn’t a change, but the wheel is sending mixed signals. We’ll fix this in a future patch.
- In Arabic, there’s a slight overlap between the Spray Title and “Pre/Post Round” Informational text on the Spray Screen.
- Zooming in on Sprays in the Collections tab puts the Spray over the Title text instead of behind it like it was in the previous Collections page.
- Spray Wheel instructional text in the Collections tab doesn’t indicate your current keybinds. We’ll fix this in a future iteration.
And that's all for the Valorant 6.10 patch notes, judging by the known issues it shouldn't be too long until a 6.10.1 arrives, but thankfully none of the known issues seem too bad for the time being.
