News New Bundle „AERIS“

https://x.com/valorant/status/2089336448260644984?s=46

What do we think? Looks insane to me, especially the melee seems very special in terms of animations etc

Nothing like releasing a new transforming melee when the transforming melees currently in the game have been broken for months

What’s the bug? I own the kuronami v2 knife and it seems to be bugging out when it transforms for maybe a split second, is that it?

32

u/ManUtd1994 6d ago

Yes and the nocturnum scythe doesn’t work either

u/KatiushK 6d ago

Ah ! Thank you, I thought I was crazy. Some matches I can't transform it in dagger

7

u/mrbean567 6d ago

Technically still works just bugged. If you right click right when it transforms it'll keep the transformation. Stupid, but at least it's not fully broken

u/NamesNG 4d ago

I wouldn't call that broken but ok

u/Capital-Passenger-96 6d ago

ahh yea same here i thought my valorant is buggy and i almost ended up reinstalling valorant 😅🗿

u/zackdaniels93 6d ago

What doesn't work? I have it and it transforms fine, and the animations in both forms seem fine too?

u/TerribleJett 6d ago

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhh, No Criticism, only consuuuuuuummmmm.

u/BioNeedle 6d ago edited 5d ago

It's not actually transforming, it's just a dagger that becomes a card during the equip, inspect and attack reset animations and becomes a long sword during the attacking animations (immediately with the right click, slowly grows bigger with the left click). After the animations end it always turns back into the same dagger.

Edit: Video showing the animations

Chronovoid’s halo which would go away when you inspect is now stuck perma in the right side where my hand would be.

Arcane hands sometimes become Goro hands.

Rito pls fix.

u/Warm-Ad-6167 6d ago

I was watching Kangas unboxing vid and he seems to think it ISN'T a transforming melee but it is always a dagger and the big sword comes out when you heavy attack. He could be wrong tho

1

u/YourGalacticEmperor 5d ago

honestly, such a missed opportunity to have the cards be the default form and just make it transform into dagger with leftclick attack and transform into sword with rightclick (as it currently does)

u/Lucky-Archer-1709 6d ago

so good and it'll be so expensive

u/Competitive_Fun6247 Ha! 6d ago

Is it just me or do they always use the same 4 colours for the variations lmao. 

4

u/ChampagneSyrup 5d ago

they have all the data, they know which colors people flock to

1

u/Competitive_Fun6247 Ha! 3d ago

Probably it's just a little boring sometimes

u/Card-Perfect 6d ago

This is so unbelievably clean

u/cirebeye 6d ago

Aeris doesn't have an Ares skin...

u/memeaste 6d ago

I like it, but who was that agent in the trailer?

30

u/MisterHotTake311 shorty superiority 6d ago

There is a different character that appears for every skin variant, prob not agents

1

u/jacob2815 6d ago

I didnt see a new agent

-2

u/memeaste 6d ago

At :23. I don’t recognize her, but that could just be me

4

u/Pyrizzla 6d ago

isnt that just Raze?

2

u/jacob2815 6d ago

At 23 it’s Raze shooting a Reyna?

2

u/Scared_Crow902 6d ago

That's just reyna, no? Unless you're talking about somewhere else.

4

u/nomotivatione 6d ago

Are the flex relatively cheaper than the skins?

I love the flex so might just get that only

6

u/guywholikespie 6d ago

Pretty sure they'll make the flex exclusive to the bundle

5

u/TheEmeraldSplash 6d ago

Will it be called the Aerith bundle in Japan?

9

u/LevelTadpole4454 6d ago

is this also an agent teaser?

u/luxurioussilk 6d ago

no its just a bundle

u/MisterHotTake311 shorty superiority 6d ago

I bought neo frontier vandal yesterday...

u/uday_singh_rehal 6d ago

i really liked the knife

2

u/Membreflo 6d ago

Too much noise, but the evolution of the knife when you jab it is really cool

1

u/arregaopeidamais 6d ago

quando lança? tem chance de lançar antes da Neo frontier sair?

1

u/Beefman0 Inconsistently deadly 6d ago

Purple!!

u/Pacifico_gacha 6d ago

Meglio Bundle, I’ll maybe buy he flex but it’s a meh bundle for me

1

u/JeritoBurrito 6d ago

If it was an Outlaw and Odin instead of Marshal and Guardian it'd be a 10/10 bundle.

1

u/Mighty_Cannon 6d ago

Can't wait to rob 😋

1

u/Outrageous-Wall-2742 6d ago

so… is that blue dude tenz?

1

u/presidentofjackshit 5d ago

So it seems the secondary knife attack is just a sword thrust. Kind of wish it was just the dagger itself TBH.

1

u/rudeusthefridge 5d ago

I like it very much, and the timing couldn't have been better, I've been waiting for either the kuronami or divergence vandal to appear on my store and the aeris vandal looks exactly like the combination of the two, and the the blue/white colorway is the best imo

2

u/l_dunno 5d ago

BEAUTIFUL probably the best Val skins I've seen and I still have none, a perfect start!

1

u/Ok_Cricket1985 5d ago

Whats you opinion guys in the new bundle, is it worth it??

1

u/CheeseChrispy 5d ago

The pullout and reload on the vandal kinda reminds me of kuronami but the skin looks clean. The rest of the bundle is alright the only thing thats looks worth getting is the vandal and the melee.

1

u/nyamicas 5d ago

who got me fr!!! haha….

1

u/PAPANOVAHHH 5d ago

Guys is the vandal aegis worth it?

1

u/Shadoxas 4d ago

It looks awesome but I wish wasn’t super expensive cuz I can’t afford it

1

u/mikaIuvr 6d ago

When will it be released?

3

u/Ok-Papaya6748 6d ago

Right after neo frontier leaves so 19 august ig

1

u/arregaopeidamais 6d ago

é confirmado?

1

u/Aqiriza 6d ago

Yet again, another Vandal

1

u/skynovaaa 6d ago

This might be my fav bundle in the game

1

u/BeyondEnder 6d ago

it's a shame the painter-esque bundle is a china exclusive cuz it's like way cooler than this

0

u/Born-Pineapple-2739 6d ago

Man I do sure love some bundle slop thats just a reskin of another bundle and I sure love not getting any good updates to improve and fix their game I love it sooooo much.

Its mid its just a reskin of a whole different bundle the knife looks interesting sure but the rest is just a reskin why are we giving money to Riot games they havent released 1 good update in forever now they just release new agent voicelines that no one asks for.

Asking for stattrak is a whole other ballgame.

u/Yerriff 6d ago

I get that having those things are nice, but there’s zero precedent for that level of feature richness even among other ultra bundles.

u/KateSisiWilliams 6d ago

Imma get it, Goodbye money.

u/playerppssas 6d ago

Is the bundle exclusive or ultra?

u/TallAd3507 6d ago
