How To Use Radianite Points In Valorant

Before getting to the point, let's remind you what Radianite Points are for, in case you haven't aren't aware of their "full potential". Unlike Valorant Points and Kingdom Credits which are used for buying stuff, Radianite Points are used for "upgrading stuff".

Here's what you can buy with your Radianite Points:

Skin Variants
Skin Upgrades

Almost all of the higher-tier Skins have Variants and Upgrades which make them look even better, and add new features to the weapons. For example, some skins have three other Variants with different colors which adds up a lot to the value of the skins themselves. On the other hand, you have the upgrades that can add Kill Counts, VFX, Finishers, and more.

How To Get Radianite Points In Valorant

Radianite Points can be obtained in a lot of ways, and the fastest and easiest way is through the RP Shop in-game. Although easy, it's not cheap and will empty your VP wallet a bit. The RP store can be checked out in-game, by clicking on the RP logo next to the Valorant Points. There are discounts occasionally, and if you really need the RP's as quickly as possible, try to buy them during the discounts.

Here are the current discounted prices of Radianite Points in the store:

20 Radianite Points - Cost: 1,600 VP (-20% Discount)
40 Radianite Points - Cost: 2,800 VP (-30% Discount)
80 Radianite Points - Cost: 4800 VP (-40% Discount)

To put it in perspective, 20 Radianite Points would cost you around $17, which is the price of a Premium Skin. To avoid paying this, there are other ways with which you can obtain Radianite Points, and these are done simply by playing the game and grinding.

The only way to get Radianite Points right now is by leveling up your Battle Pass. You don't need to buy the Battle Pass, as there are Radianite Points to be redeemed in the Free Chapter Rewards, but buying the Battle Pass will include the RP from the Premium Chapters. With the current Battle Pass, you can get 30 Radianite Points from the Free Chapters. On the other hand, if you decide to buy the Battle Pass and grind it till the end, you will receive 150 Radianite Points.

Right now, the general opinion about the Battle Pass is that the skins are not worth the grind and money, but the Radianite Points make it worthy and are probably the only reason most of the players still buy the Battle Pass and care about leveling it up.
