Blue Essence, or BE, is one of the two currency used in League of Legends, the other being Riot Points.
Blue Essence can be obtained through Leveling Capsules, that are obtained when leveling up.
Blue Essence Use
- Blue Essences are used to:
- Purchase champions (through the Store, or with champions shards).
- Purchase Hextech Crafting mystery champion shards.
- Purchase additional rune pages.
- Purchase chromas whenever they're on sale.
Leveling Capsule
- A Leveling Capsule rewards the player with a champion shard, that can be disenchanted to obtain Blue Essences. Disenchanting a champion shard can grant 720, 900, 960, or 1,240, based on the champion's price in Blue Essence. [1]
Trivia
- Blue Essence was first released at the begining of Season 2016 as a way to not spend IP to unlock champions.
- It was then merged with Influence Points on patch V7.22.
