8 things every Valorant player should know about the game
SHARE

When you first start playing Valorant, we can’t imagine a ton of information to take in. There are tons of features and controls, and it’s easy to get overwhelmed. The following post outlines some of the most important things for new players to know about Valorant: how do you play, what does cash do, and what is with all these different currencies? You’ll also find out about some other tips, including how to customize your character!

1. A free-to-play MMORPG:

Valorant is a combination between a tactical RPG and a strategy/tactics MMO. You pick a faction and start with just one or two cities or towns, depending on your faction choice. From there, you build up an empire, complete quests, and interact with other players in epic-scale battles using many different kinds of units, all based on real-life armies or factions.

It is a medieval fantasy world, but the game’s primary focus is on fighting massive battles. You can interact with players and complete quests to gain items and power, but the game is purely based on fighting.

2. Classes and characters:

Three classes in the game (Warrior, Mage, and Rogue), each class has its strengths and weaknesses. When creating your character, the game will present you with a set of options that represent the story and lore behind Valorant. You can change your name and appearance at any time by logging into the website and going to My Account. Please consider this when making your character, and if possible, let’s try to keep it consistent in role play:

  • Race: human vs. elf
  • Class: fighter/mage/cleric/thief
  • Look: Male/Female, short hair/long hair/beard, etc

3. In-game currency:

There are many ways to earn in-game currency and items, including leveling up your character, doing quests, completing tasks for other players, buying packs of cards from the marketplace with real money in-game currency, and trading with other players. The currency options are Gold, Etherium, Crystals, Platinum, or Gems. They each have different ways to acquire them. New players receive a fair amount of currency upon entering Valorant, though it will be difficult to purchase any scarce items right away. It would be best if you didn’t waste your currency on any of the items listed above. Save your currency for the most expensive ones (cards, chests, packs) until you know what you’re doing.

4. Spend what you earn:

You can spend your currency on any of the towers in the screen above, all cards you own (including those currently equipped), chests (which contain cards or resources), packs (which contain cards and character upgrades), or give them to other players as gifts. You can also send them to the Arena and Daily Quests.

5. In-game cards:

Player Cards are a cosmetic item in VALORANT. They act as the player’s avatar in-game within a lobby. There are 31 Player Cards in VALORANT, separated into three rarities: Common, Uncommon, and Rare. Each card has a level that can be increased by gaining experience points. The higher the class on the Player Card is, the more items it unlocks for you to use. You can trade cards with other players using an email system that allows you to send them either one card or a pack of 10 cards at once. If you have been given a card by another player or gotten a free daily bag from the quest board, that is permanently yours. You can only bring cards by buying packs with Valorant. Once you have ten cards, select ‘Trade Cards’ from your inventory to use them.

6. Learn how to play for rewards and currency:

If you’re new to the game and looking for quick tips on how to get started playing it more efficiently, head over to https://wecoach.gg/valorant-coaching! Or you can enter the forums specifically for the valorant players or valorant chatroom. Be nice in this chat room! Someone is putting in the effort to play this game with you, so be respectful. You can always disconnect and start over if someone is rude. The only thing you need to know about the chatroom is that typing /help will bring up a list of typed commands you can use in-game. You’ll go back into this chat room every time you restart your game.

7. Take time to strategize before each turn:

Valorant is a game of strategy, not just luck: Having a good plan is a big part of doing well in Valorant. You need to know when to attack and when not to strike. Ensure you have the weapons and armor you need for your situation; otherwise, you could find yourself with no hope of survival.

  • Combat takes place on sand battlefields that are randomly generated each time the player enters. The player starts with 60 health, and each hit taken deducts one health point.
  • You don’t want to go into a battle without knowing what your opponent will do, so you need to know how they will move and attack, look at their skin color and size, the weapons they have equipped, etc. Then after you have studied them for a minute or two, you can plan your strategy for attacking them.

8. In-game purchases:

Valorant has a lot of different items, and you could easily get lost by how to use or equip them. Here is a breakdown of all the item categories:

  • Weapons: there are many different types of weapons, including swords, spears, daggers, bows, and two-handed weapons. Each weapon type can have 1-3 gem sockets (more sockets are unlockable as you level up) and an Attack rating (1-30). Weapons can also give special bonuses like increasing your allied’s HP, increasing your gold find, or giving you a chance to stun the enemy. Weapons have no durability, but they lose attack rating with each use until it reaches 0, at which point you need to sell it to get some of your money back.
  • Armor: Armor includes all different types of equipment that you use for defense rather than offense. There are helmets, shoulder pads, chest armor, gloves/bracers, leggings, and boots. The sockets in armor are either empty or have a unique ability with no attack rating attached to the socket. You can equip multiple pieces of armor, but you will see a decrease in your defense. The higher the level of the equipment you are wearing, the more stats you unlock for each piece opened.
  • Level: Valorant has three difficulties for players to choose from Casual, Normal, and Hardcore. Each test makes enemies stronger compared to previous challenges. If you play hardcore, enemies will have more health and special abilities compared to casual.

Conclusion:

With basics known and games already on your pc, you are ready to win your medieval time’s wars with 21st-century strategy and plans. Make sure you hide all the watches to forget the time and keep yourself engaged in this mesmerizing and exciting game. Happy gaming.
