One of the biggest events in Wild Rift, the Sentinels of Light, has been released in the game and will last until 10th Aug 2021. The event immerses players in the adventures of the Sentinels as they fight against the dark forces of the Ruined King. The Sentinels of Light event in Wild Rift offers a ton of in-game loots such as blue motes, poro energy, Baubles, profile icons, avatar borders, and the grand prize, a champion select chest that allows players to unlock one of the six sentinel champions. The Sentinels of Light event in Wild Rift also marks the debut of two new champions, Lucian and Senna, in the game.
Sentinels of Light Event Interface
The event is unique compared to the previously released major events in the game as it will be quite interactive and lets players immerse themselves in the lore of the game. Players will need to upgrade the level of the Sentinel HQ by increasing their Sentinel Bonds through playing the matches of any game mode. Reaching a high enough Sentinel Bond will also unlock various emotes for players to collect.
By increasing the level of the Sentinel HQ, players can acquire generous rewards like baubles, spawn tags, avatar borders, and a champion select chest that allows players to unlock one of the six sentinel champions. You’ll also be able to unlock each of the character’s backstory the more you progress in the event.
Each task you complete below will raise the XP of the corresponding champions in the Sentinels of Light event interface;
Sentinel Champion | Objectives and XP Reward |
---|---|
Lucian | Gain 2 XP for every enemy structure destroyed |
Gain an additional 2 XP for every structure you helped destroy | |
