Wild Rift patch 3.4b notes: Samira nerfs, Kai’Sa buffs, more

Wild Rift patch 3.4b balances many of the underwhelming picks in the game, granting them more power and thereby changing the meta. Here is everything to know for the Wild Rift patch 3.4b notes, from the buffs, nerfs, and item changes.

Wild Rift patch 3.4b officially hit the rift after Riot initially teased the changes coming in the upcoming patch notes. It appears they’re targeting buffing weaker champions, while making some small changes to some champions.

These particular patch notes are lettered, and are therefore more minor than the recent Patch 3.4. However there’s still some fine tweaking needed in-game to balance out the meta.

Here is everything to know about Wild rift patch 3.4b.

When is Wild Rift patch 3.4b?

The new patch dropped on October 19, 2022, two weeks after the release of Wild Rift patch 3.4a. Though the new Wild Rift patch notes addressed a lot of the underwhelming picks, and helped the meta as a whole, there isn’t a whole bunch of new content outside of the balancing.

Wild Rift Vex releases in patch 3.4b

According to Riot, Wild Rift Vex release date is on October 27 at 00:01 UTC.

Vex is an AP castor, who utilizes burst damage and area of effect crowd control. If the target Vex hits with her ultimate dies within the first couple of seconds of casting, the yordle is able to recast the ability.

Managing this reset mechanic allows Vex to snowball, thereby making her a rather scary champion to fight against.

What is changing in Wild Rift patch 3.4b?

Kai’Sa and Corki buffed

Kai’Sa and Corki seem to be the big winners of Wild Rift patch 3.4b, with big buffs to both their damage outputs and cooldowns.

Corki also gained more base stats as a whole, which should help the Yordle fight against beefier enemies. As for Kai’Sa, her damage output in her first ability was increased drastically. Icathian Rain now deals more on isolated targets, which should help her DPS.

Expect to see more of these two champions during Wild Rift patch 3.4b.

Gwen and Yone nerfed

Both Gwen and Yone have been a bit too overbearing to fight against in Wild Rift. They create some relatively unfair circumstances during fights, where there is little outplay potential to fight against them.

Wild Rift patch 3.4b targets creating bigger weaknesses to exploit in both champions, while not killing off their core champion identities.

Yone’s ult damage was nerfed, but his durability was increased.
