As we have already mentioned before Garena is a service that runs different games on their servers in regions where by any circumstances a game cannot be launched yet. That’s how League of Legends worked previously for many regions including CIS, and Southern East countries. Now LoL has launched its own servers globally but in Indonesia. Their players still need to play with a high ping on other regions servers or play on Garena servers. You can learn more about Garena its self in the previous post, here we will tell you more about the exchange of Garena shells to RP (riot points).
Garena Shells are used for in-game purchases and are only available if you play a game on Garena servers. You can convert them to other in-game currencies but Garena shells are a region-locked product. It’s only valid for the Garena account registered in the region of Malaysia. No matter what service you use to buy Garena shells all of them will be un-refundable.
As for the RP. Riot Points is one of many in-game currencies in League of Legends. Other currencies though are situational and you can use them only for specified needs. But RP is the main currency in LoL and you can make almost all in-game purchases using it. For example:
- Buy champions
- Buy champion skins
- Buy bundles
- Buy chromas
- Buy emotes
- Buy experience boosts
- Buy Hextech Crafting materials
- By additional rune pages
- Buy summoner icons
- Buy ward skins
- Buy event bundles
- Buy event battle passes
- Change summoner name
If you play League of Legends on regular official servers you will exchange your real money for RP with the rate established by Riot Games. But if you play on Garena servers you need to know the rate of Garena shells to RP exchange. Because Garena games won’t accept your real money directly.
