Valorant 5.09 Patch - Harbor and Agent Updates
The Valorant 5.09 patch notes indicated that the upcoming VALORANT patch will only provide minor Quality of Life adjustments to several agent skills, including those of Yoru, Fade, Reyna, and Sage.
The only other significant or meta-shifting addition in this patch is the changes to a new Controller agent from India named Harbor, who possesses water-based skills. The primary component of this Valorant 5.09 patch is this new agent.
- Fixed a bug where Harbor’s Cascade would sometimes disappear when looking away from it (hotfixed during the 5.08 patch cycle).
- Fixed a bug where walking through Harbor’s Cove barrier was not blinding players at the intended distance (hotfixed during the 5.08 patch cycle).
- Fixed a bug where Harbor’s High Tide would have large gaps when cast in specific map locations.
- Fixed a bug where Harbor’s Reckoning’s geysers would not spawn in the area where the player was standing.
- Throughout this year, we’ve been periodically making improvements to Skye’s Seekers so that they more reliably and efficiently reach their target.
- Small changes were made to how Skye’s Seekers navigate around obstacles after they’ve visually acquired their target.
- If the target is intangible when the Seekers reach them, it will not debuff them. This includes Reyna while she is Dismissed and Yoru in Dimensional Drift.
- Fixed an issue where Yoru would still enter his stealth and intangible state if he was detained while casting Dimensional Drift. The detain now properly interrupts the cast.
- Fixed an issue where Fade could activate her Haunt and Seize projectiles to make them drop while she was Suppressed.
- Fixed an issue where Reyna would auto-heal after a kill while in Empress even though she was Suppressed.
- Fixed an issue where Sage could instantly break her Barrier by walling herself into a corner.

Not only Valorant patch 5.09, but we also got info on the next Valorant PBE patches. It has been revealed that PBE invite frequency has changed. Instead of a singular invite wave going out to a small number of eligible players once every PBE patch, it will now be once every OTHER PBE patch.
This started with the 4.10 patch, and it is expected the next invite wave/chance to join Valo Patch 5.10 is on November 4.
However, it was additionally mentioned that this PBE schedule is subject to change depending on what type of patch is going out and it is not completely set in stone.
Obviously, these changes seem interesting, hence, those who are early waiting to see the Valorant agent abilities changes, bug fixes, and more should hop onto the game now.
