When it comes to weapon cosmetic concepts in Valorant , the Riot design team has been beyond their creativity for a while. Not only are the weapon skins some of the unique designs across the entire fps genre, they are also some of the most acclaimed purchasable items in the game.
However, just because Valorant weapon skins are incredibly unique doesn't mean the design team is immune to any criticism and scrutiny. The Valorant cosmetic range is expensive, and Ultra Edition sets like DRAGON FIRE cost no less than 9,900 Valorant Points, which is really expensive.
Moreover, aspects of some of his latest appearances have also been heavily impacted. Packs like EGO and Smite have come under criticism for how boring and unimaginative they look for these two skins of melee weapons.
The melee weapons of Valorant's EGO and Smite sets are simplified versions of the basic blade without their own custom animations.
Valorant developers could be bringing new melee visual effects to many existing skinlines in the coming months.
