Riot has provided new information on League of Legends’ Eternals, which are stat-tracking features that allow players to showcase their achievements and flex on the competition. Here’s everything you need to know:
What are Eternals?
Eternals is a stat-tracking feature that captures and celebrates your moments of glory in and out of the game. After purchasing an Eternal series, the stats begin tracking automatically. When you reach a milestone, such as 50 Bicycle Kicks on Lee Sin, an in-game notification will pop up for all players to see.
You can also see your Eternals stats, along with your Champion Mastery, in your Player Showcase. This will be visible on the back of your champion card during the loading screen and in the death screen after getting a kill or assist on an opponent. You have the option to customize which Eternals you want to display in the Player Showcase.
There are two types of Eternals: Common and Unique. Unique Eternals are champion-specific stats, such as the number of long-distance Ashe arrows hit. Common Eternals are more general stats, like takedowns or epic monsters killed.
By achieving milestones within an Eternal Series, you can unlock perks. After reaching five milestones on a single Eternal, your Personal Best for that stat will be recorded. When you surpass your Personal Best in a match, all players in the game will see the achievement pop up.
Reaching 15 milestones in an Eternal will upgrade your Mastery Emote with an exclusive fiery effect. The Mastery Emote can be upgraded multiple times with each completed Eternals set.
How much do Eternals cost?
The price of each Eternal set depends on the number of Common or Unique Eternals it contains. Each Common Eternals adds 75 RP to the price, while each Unique Eternals adds 200 RP.
Series One will have sets with three Unique Eternals, which will cost 200 RP per champion. However, if a future series has one Common and two Unique Eternals, the price will change to 475 RP.
Following the community’s complaints about Eternals being RP-only, Riot will offer ways to earn Eternals without spending money. The Starter Series of Eternals will be available for 2,500 Blue Essence (or 225 RP) per champion. These Eternals include common stats that encourage teamplay and are applicable to all champions.
Riot will also release Eternal Capsules as free rewards in Ranked Splits. These capsules will contain Orange Essence and two random Set Shards. Players can disenchant unwanted Set Shards for Orange Essence and use that currency to upgrade a Set Shard into the real thing.
For those with a large champion pool who don’t want to buy an Eternal for each one, Riot is offering a discount. The Series Pass unlocks all the Eternals in a series for every champion at a reduced price. The Series One Pass will be priced at 5,850 RP, approximately 90% less than buying each champion’s Eternal individually. A Starter Series Pass, including Common Eternals, can be purchased for 14,750 Blue Essence or 1,350 RP.
When will Eternals be released?
Riot has not announced a specific release date for Eternals yet. However, they are currently being tested on the PBE, which suggests that they will be available on live servers soon.
