Valorant Patch 11.04: Chamber and Sage Buffs Shake Up the Meta

Riot Games has rolled out Valorant patch 11.04, and while a handful of quality-of-life improvements headline the update, the biggest talking points are undoubtedly the adjustments to Chamber and Sage.

Did Chamber Get Buffed Again?

Interestingly, Chamber’s buff technically went live in the previous update, but it only appeared in the official patch notes this time, making it clear why players may have already noticed the change before reading the notes.

The French marksman now enjoys far greater flexibility thanks to the removal of the range restriction on his Trademark ability.

In practice, this means Chamber players are no longer tethered to their traps, freeing them to roam the map and take aggressive duels without worrying about abandoning utility.

For a Sentinel who thrives on punishing flanks while still taking space, this tweak elevates Chamber’s impact significantly.

Meanwhile, Sage has received substantial upgrades that emphasize her unique role as a “Controller-leaning Sentinel.”

Her Barrier Orb now boasts an increased cast range 10 meters >>15 meters 

allowing her to set up safer, more creative “Sage walls” without overexposing herself. On top of that, Resurrection has seen its effective range doubled from 6 meters >> 12 meters, granting Sage the ability to revive teammates from safer positions.
