League offers several ways to get some content, whether by paying or by playing. Read on to see how to get different kinds of in-game currency.
RP, BE, and XP
RP (Riot Points)
Only obtainable through direct purchase in the store or when gifted by a friend. You may use RP to purchase most things in the store.
BE (Blue Essence)
Mostly earned through Battle Pass progression as well as a few other sources. BE can be used to craft champions in Loot or purchase them in the store.
XP (Experience Points)
Earned by playing League of Legends and completing certain objectives. XP is how you level up your account, earning all kinds of loot for the first 30 levels and then emotes after. A game must last at least 7 minutes to give XP, and there is no limit to how high you can level your account.
Normal PvP and Ranked PvP Games
The XP system in League of Legends rewards you based on the time you spend playing games. On average, a 30 minute win will earn approximately 204 XP, and a 30 minute loss will earn approximately 167 XP.
Custom Games
Custom games are not eligible to earn XP.
Co-op vs. AI Games
Summoners gain a percentage of base XP gain based on their level in Co-op Vs. AI games with earlier levels providing greater payouts to accelerate the journey of new players.
Levels
- Level 1-9: Bots grant 100% XP.
- Level 10-19: Bots grant 90% XP.
- Level 20-29: Bots grant 80% XP (65% after 180 minutes each day).
- Level 30: Bots grant 75% XP (55% after 180 minutes each day).
XP Boosts
Boosts are available for purchase with RP in the store. There are two different types of boosts available in League of Legends --- ‘Days’ and ‘Per Win’ boosts. Any XP boost you purchase is automatically extended when there's planned server downtime.
- ‘Days’ based boosts double the base XP earned from a game. For example if you earned 150 XP, a day boost would add an additional 150 XP boost to your account for a total of 300 XP.
- ‘Per Win’ boosts add a flat amount of around 210 XP per game. The time played in a game does not affect this boost’s reward.
Leveling Rewards
You earn unique rewards each level from 1-30; after that, you get special milestone rewards for certain levels.
New players can also benefit from a daily play reward. Please note that these rewards are only available until level 20, so you may miss out on some rewards if you level up too quickly during the first week.
