Booms in Teamfight Tactics (TFT) have been a popular cosmetic feature, allowing players to personalize their gameplay experience. Originally, these Booms were exclusive to battle pass rewards, making them a sought-after collectible for many.
However, with the introduction of Set 12, Riot Games has implemented changes to how these rewards are handled, leaving players curious about the possibility of upgrading their Booms. Here’s everything you need to know about TFT Booms in Set 12 and the current status of upgrading them.
What Are Booms in TFT?
Booms are visual effects that occur when your Little Legend attacks during a match. These unique animations add flair to your gameplay, making your TFT experience more personalized and engaging. Players have been collecting Booms from various battle passes over the past sets, each offering different themes and styles.
The Current Situation with Booms in Set 12
In TFT Set 12, the system for acquiring and upgrading Booms has been overhauled. Previously, players could accumulate multiple Booms through battle passes, but now the process has changed. As of the latest update, there’s no straightforward way to upgrade Booms, leaving many players with unupgradable cosmetic effects in their inventory.
Why Can’t Booms Be Upgraded?
Riot Games has acknowledged the issue, with Lindsay Honig from Riot stating that the team is aware of the situation and is actively seeking solutions. Unfortunately, as of August 13, 2024, no concrete method exists to upgrade Booms. Riot is testing potential fixes, but no official release date or method has been confirmed.
How to Obtain Booms in TFT Set 12
Despite the inability to upgrade Booms at this time, players can still obtain new ones through the battle pass and special bundles. Here’s a list of the available Booms in TFT Set 12:
- Broom Boom – Available through the battle pass.
- Demolition Donut – Another battle pass exclusive.
- Miss Fortune Make it Rain Boom – Tied to the Chibi Champion bundle.
- Battle Bunny Make it Rain Boom – Available through a Chibi Champion bundle.
- Bootcamp Boom – Offered for a limited time only.
Each season of TFT now features two battle passes, so it’s worth keeping an eye on future updates to see if more Booms or upgrade options become available.
Conclusion
While the current lack of an upgrade path for Booms in TFT Set 12 may be disappointing, it’s reassuring to know that Riot Games is aware and working on potential solutions. In the meantime, players can continue to enjoy the new Booms introduced in this set and anticipate further developments.
