The upcoming VALORANT patch gives Omen a long-awaited Ultimate buff.

Riot Games will release the 8.07 patch notes for VALORANT on April 9, 2024. The update will not bring anything significant other than Omen’s Ultimate buff. And thanks to it, Omen will be able to pick up spikes or interact with other usables like doors and weapons while in the shadow form of From the Shadows. Moreover, to pull that off, you don’t have to cancel your Ultimate.

Apart from Omen’s ultimate buff, the 8.07 patch notes do not have anything significant other than some of the bug fixes. In any case, here are the full 8.07 patch notes.

Agent Update

Omen

  • Omen is now able to pick up the Spike and interact with other useables like doors while in the Shade form of From the Shadows (X) without having to cancel the ability. Our goal is to make these interactions more intuitive and clearly intended.

General Update

  • Interaction prompts have received an accessibility update, adding contrast to make them easier to read in-game. The prompt text has been simplified, and weapon prompts no longer show skinline names.

Bug Fixes

  • Agent
    • Fixed an exploit where the Chamber could place Trademark (C) in unintended locations.
    • Fixed a bug where Clove’s Not Dead Yet (X) does not progress the “Use Your Ultimate” weekly mission, and Match Details incorrectly reports 0 casts.
    • Fixed a bug where Clove’s Ruse (E) used after death does not report to the Match Details.
    • Fixed a bug where Clove’s aim direction would abruptly change when suppressed during Not Dead Yet (X). Thank you FLOWSHIZZLETV, FatalGlytch, and papashlomo for the testing and report (https://twitter.com/FLOWSHIZZLETV/status/1772743253701366058?s=20).
    • Fixed a bug where Clove would sometimes resurrect without their primary weapon when using Not Dead Yet (X).
    • Fixed a bug where Clove’s head and arm hitboxes could be offset when aiming sharply up or down with Ruse (E) equipped.
      • Fixed the same bug that also applied while Clove was crouched with Ruse (E) equipped.
    • Fixed a bug where Clove’s Meddle (Q) used an incorrect ability icon in the combat report.
    • Submitted a speculative fix for Clove’s Pick-Me-Up HUD (C), sometimes showing > 150 total health values when taking fall damage as Clove activated the ability
  • General
    • Damage
      • We fixed a bug where fractional damage would represent the total damage taken incorrectly on the HUD. This bug resulted in issues like close-range Classic body shots on armored targets appearing to deal 25 instead of 26 damage and Clove appearing to heal to 151 health with Pick-Me-Up (C) in some circumstances.
