MLBB Project NEXT 2024: Equipment Changes

The next evolution of mobile MOBA gameplay has arrived in Mobile Legends: Bang Bang. Here's a closer look at the equipment changes.

Adaptive Equipment

• Active Skill - Frozen: Freeze upon using. The hero will not be able to do anything for a brief period but will be immune to all DMG and debuffs.

• Provides adaptive attributes. It can also be used for physical heroes who rely on cooldown reduction to cast their Ultimate skills as many times as possible.
• Unique Passive - Timestream: Hero kills or assists reduce Ultimate's current cooldown by a certain amount.

• Slays low-HP enemy heroes directly. Each kill will increase the HP threshold of the execute effect; each death will reduce the threshold.

Magic Equipment

• Equipment Name: (Revamped) Clock of Destiny
• Changes: Half-Tank, half-DPS
• + Magic Power, + Max HP, + Max Mana

• Each time a certain amount of Magic Damage is dealt to an enemy hero, a projectile is launched, dealing Magic Damage based on a percentage of the target's current HP.

Defense Equipment

• Equipment Name: (Revamped) Queen's Wings
• Changes: Universal for Fighters, lower Lifesteal, and strengthened fighting power
• Unique Passive - Demonise: When HP is low, gains Damage Reduction and reduces skill cooldown.
• Unique Passive - Defiance: Gains higher Damage as HP gets lower.

• Equipment Name: (Revamped) Thunder Belt
• Changes: Optimizes the Tank experience, allows most Tanks to deal Sustained Damage and improves late-game scaling
• It permanently stacks; it allows Tanks to deal more damage and apply control effects in the late game. Especially suitable for tanks playing in the Exp lane.
• Every few seconds, the next Basic Attack deals extra True Damage based on Hybrid Defence to the target and surrounding enemies, along with a brief but powerful slow. Each hit on an enemy hero will permanently increase Hybrid Defence. This effect is reduced to 50% for Marksmen and Mages.

Moreover, the visual effects of Marksman and Assassin equipment will be updated. The following two new universal talents will be added:

• War Cry: After every three consecutive instances of damage dealt to enemy heroes with separate Basic Attacks or skills, all damage dealt increases.
• Temporal Reign: The next Ultimate cast decreases other active skills' remaining cooldowns for a short time.
