Valorant Patch 3.07 Finally Changes Jett Knife Shooting Range Bug

It’s update week for Valorant, and while Patch 3.07 doesn’t make an especially long list of changes, there are one or two that should come as a welcome surprise to fans of the game. In particular, Jett’s knives now finally reset at the shooting range after a practice bot is killed, which always used to occur but suddenly stopped working six or so months ago. Now you can finally practice your knife taps without hearing ‘watch this!’ over and over. Hallelujah!

Other notable changes in today’s patch include the correction of a bug that would see players avoid decay when passing through the top of Viper’s wall, and another annoying bug that awarded a ‘Team Ace’ without members of the team being involved. Here is the full list of changes:

Agent Updates

Viper

• Passing through the highest portion of Viper’s wall now correctly applies instant decay to
• high-flying Agents.
• Updated the visuals for the dissolving effect seen while inside Viper’s smoke to better
• match the visuals seen from the outside, in an attempt to remove any type of peeker’s
• advantage when playing from within the smoke.

Jett

• Jett’s Blade Storm kunai will now recharge after killing a training dummy or defuse
• practice bot.

Social Updates

● Penalties removed for leaving Deathmatch early
○ Full game participation is required to earn XP.

Performance Updates

New setting, in Beta, “Raw Input Buffer” improves the performance of input device processing.

• 8000hz polling rate mice are supported with this feature enabled.
