Astra can remove debuff effects, and Omen can see inside Viper’s ultimate. These and other bugs were discovered by the VALORANT community in less than a week after the release of the new Patch 10.08.

The agent Astra can use her Astral Form to remove any status effect, even Breach’s ultimate. All that needs to be done is to enter Astral Form after the effect is applied. While it may still visually appear as if the effect is active, in reality there are no shooting penalties applied anymore.

Another critical bug allows the agent Omen to see inside Viper’s ultimate. More specifically, spectators watching Omen can clearly see what’s happening inside the area of Viper's Pit. The bug works as follows: Omen enters Viper's Pit and opens the smoke placement menu. While in it, dead players spectating him can see everything clearly. Although it’s less exploitable than the Astra bug, it’s still critical as it provides an unfair advantage.

In addition to these, Patch 10.08 includes many other issues, especially visual ones. One of them is linked to the new skin collection, where a finisher animation cube may appear directly in the scope's crosshair, along with smaller kill icons or problems such as unknown deaths on the Icebox map and the ability to leave map boundaries, among other minor bugs.

It’s worth noting that many of these bugs, especially the Astra and Omen ones, have already been acknowledged by developers. Ryan Cousart, VALORANT’s agent designer, confirmed in video comments that these issues have been noticed.
