[Rolled back] 1/22 PBE Update: Scorched Earth Renekton Splash

Posted on at 10:58 AM by Moobeat
**Note**:  Due to some issues, the PBE has been rolled back to the 1/22 update. Keeping the post and info up for reference but these changes are not in the game atm.

Here's Riot Feithen with more info:
"We have redeployed yesterday's patch in order to resolve this issue as quickly as possible. You can pick it up by relogging. We'll continue to work on addressing the bug and getting you the latest content, but for now, this will prevent the large number of crashes that we were seeing."

The PBE has been updated and I'm happy to say that Scorched Earth Renekton has a new splash art!

Continue reading to check out the latest PBE content!

(Warning: PBE Content is tentative and iterative - what you see may not reflect what eventually gets pushed to live servers! Manage your expectations accordingly. )


Scorched Earth Renekton Splash

To the joy of many, a splash art for Scorched Earth Renekton, a skin that first appeared in March of 2013 and has never been released, has popped up on the PBE!


Since it's been almost a year since his original PBE debut, here's some updated shots of Scorched Earth Renekton:

New Kassadin Particles

Looks like Kassadin has some new particles, will have to wait until the PBE crashes get fixed though.

[ Update] These have been rolled back with the other in-game changes. It will have to wait until the patch is redeployed.

PBE Store Updates

Here's Riot Blackrook with more info on some recent update sto the PBE store!
"Greetings PBE, 
We're currently working on changing up how the Store works on the PBE to create a better experience for you guys. You may have noticed a few featured bundles branded as "PBE Starter Kits" to help new PBE players get up and running with all the champions and most of the more commonly used runes. 
Skin Pricing 
As of now we've reset all of the skins available on PBE to match what's on the Live Store. Previously the prices were kind of random, with some skins being 1 RP, others being 390 RP, and newer stuff being the same as the live price. First of all, we wanted the prices to be consistent. Secondly, we chose the Live prices as our consistent system so that you know how much a skin cost when you try it on PBE. However, with regard to new skins that are "in testing" and not released on Live yet, we will make sure that they are affordable for the period of testing. (i.e. if we put Spirit Guard Udyr on PBE with no way to buy it other than 3250RP, that wouldn't encourage testing for him so we don't want to do that.) 
Going forward we want to make all skins on PBE the same RP price as they are or will be on Live, but for skins that need testing we'll allow them to be unlocked for 1 IP to ensure that everyone can contribute to testing them. (This way you'll also know how much a skin will cost when it is released!) 
Let me know if you have any questions,
@RiotBlackrook 
NOTE: Please let me know in this thread if any skin on the PBE store right now is a different price/availability than it is on the NA store!"
