Andrew Amos

Riot has expanded the Hextech Augments mechanic in TFT Set 6.5 with more than 80 new buffs being added in the Neon Nights Mid-Set update. Here’s what they do and how they work.

The Hextech Augments system has been a success in TFT Set 6. Launching with Gizmos & Gadgets, the agency granted to players has been praised with a diverse array of options to choose from every game.

Riot is continuing to play with the system in the Neon Nights Mid-Set update with more than 80 new Hextech Augments being added in TFT Set 6.5.

Here’s what you need to know about all the new Augments.

Radiant Items TFT armory
The Radiant Armory from the Dawn of Heroes update is returning for TFT Set 6.5 as a Hextech Augment.

New Hextech Augments in TFT Set 6.5

There are 86 new Hextech Augments overall in TFT Set 6.5. Some of the Augments have drawn inspiration from traits in previous sets, like the Draconic-style Golden Egg, as well as Galaxies’ Tiny Titans (known as Medium Legends back then).

Radiant Items also make their return with a new armory Augment, while some pre-existing Augments like Weakspot have been reworked to increase diversity.

“We didn’t launch with enough generic Augments and so we’re trying to make sure there are more times where you go ‘what does this do, no matter what comp I’m playing,'” developer Stephen ‘Mortdog’ Mortimer explained in an interview.

You can check the full list below, divided into their respective tiers.
