The recently announced patch 8.03, as is always the case with minor updates, will bring very few changes to Valorant. Among the entire list, the most important is the buff to Chamber, which was detailed by the dataminer KINGDOM LABORATORIES.

Let's recall that two days ago, the patch notes for the upcoming update 8.03 appeared online. Read more about it in our material. In addition to additions to the game's lore, new rewards, the patch will also include a minor balance to the agent Chamber, which will strengthen his abilities. First and foremost, the price for Headhunter pistol bullets will be reduced from 150 to 100 credits. While this is already a significant buff, Riot Games did not stop there, and in the new patch, they will increase the firing rate of the Tour De Force ultimate from 0.7 to 0.9 shots per second. The last enhancement, although it seems quite modest, will be very effective in the game.

Dataminer KINGDOM LABORATORIES on their Twitter account posted a video comparing the firing speed of Tour De Force in patches 8.02 and 8.03, and the changes are indeed impressive. The video shows a significant difference, with the accelerated rifle finishing firing and switching to the knife when the previous version is just shooting the last bullet.

The Valorant community has largely reacted positively to these changes because Chamber has been nerfed more times than buffed throughout its existence. Now, with patch 8.03 bringing its changes, players are confident that the agent will fit well into the current meta.
