Riot addresses Blue Essence and account level XP earn rates: ‘We meaningfully screwed up on this one’
After Riot Games reworked the Blue Essence system and others in its 15th Season, League of Legends saw a significant outrage among players who pointed out a significantly reduced currency income. The developer has now taken a look at the situation and promised to fix it as soon as possible.
In an address to players on Jan. 15, Riot came clean about its flawed implementation of the new battle pass system in League. “We meaningfully screwed up,” the company wrote, and vowed to amend the system to make Blue Essence earning much higher for players across the board. While the changes did positively impact more casual players, Riot said its hardcore player base has suffered significantly, with their Blue Essence income dropping by up to a whopping 75 percent. With the changes, which are set to go live with the Act 2 Pass, players should be seeing up to a 22-percent increase in their currency income compared to pre-pass systems, and this includes both casual and more hardcore fans.
