Mobile Legends Patch 1.8.44 Update: What to Expect

In the latest update 1.8.44 of Mobile Legends: Bang Bang, Moonton Games is preparing to introduce significant changes from the advanced server to the main server. After extensive testing, the fighter hero, Cici, wielding a yo-yo as her primary weapon, is set to make her debut in the main game. This addition not only brings a new dynamic to the gameplay but also introduces a fresh set of abilities for players to explore.

In addition to Cici's arrival, players can anticipate a range of balance adjustments to heroes in the game, as well as the commencement of a new ranked season. Notably, players who have achieved mythic rank for four consecutive seasons will have the opportunity to claim Faramis' mythic rank skin as a reward for their dedication and skill.

 

Now let's see together the details about this exciting update! Click and check how to play Mobile Legends: Bang Bang on PC with MuMu Player.

 

New Hero: Cici

One of Cici's abilities, "Performer's Delight", allows her to generate stacks of delight after dealing damage, increasing her movement speed by 2% per stack and stacking up to 10 times. When reaching full stacks, Cici also gains 30% spell vamp, making her a formidable force in battles.

 

Her first skill, "Yo-Yo Blitz", further showcases her prowess with the yo-yo, delivering powerful attacks and disrupting enemy movements.

 

Additionally, her second skill, "Buoyant Bounce", enables Cici to leap to a designated location. Upon landing on an enemy, she inflicts 200 physical damage and proceeds to leap again in the targeted direction.

 

Furthermore, Cici possesses an ultimate skill known as "Curtain Call".

Cici's skill "Yo-yo Throw" allows her to throw her yoyo at an enemy hero, connecting them to another nearby enemy hero. This deals a significant amount of physical damage, slows the linked targets by 50%, and pulls them together for a duration of 3 seconds. During this time, Cici gains the ability to use "Yo-yo Blitz" to simultaneously attack both linked targets. If only one target is within the range of Yo-yo Blitz, Cici will attack that target twice, with the second attack dealing reduced damage.

Balance Adjustments

In the recent Mobile Legends patch 1.8.44 update, there have been hero balance changes.

 

Dyrroth (+)

Dyrroth has received a buff, with developers aiming to maintain the impact of his burst damage when at max rage. As a result, they have decided to revert previous adjustments while ensuring that his ultimate ability remains uninterruptible.

Lancelot (~)

Furthermore, Lancelot has also undergone some changes, with his status being indicated as "approximately the same" in the update. In the latest update, Lancelot has received some significant equipment adjustments, which have notably strengthened his abilities. However, to ensure that he does not become too dominant in the game, we have implemented a minor nerf.

 

Skill 2 Base Damage: 165-265 >> 170-245 (↓)

 

Yin (-)

Ultimate Cooldown: 48-40s >> 52-44s

Other Changes

Issue with attack interval being lower than other heroes fixed. Silvanna, Masha, and Nolan's adjustments are being reverted by the developers for now due to the need for further testing. These adjustments will make a return in future versions.

 

Battlefield and System Adjustments

In the latest Mobile Legends patch 1.8.44 update, significant battlefield and system adjustments have been implemented. One of the key changes includes the optimization of the target selection logic in various scenarios. This enhancement ensures that auto attacks choose targets more reasonably, and the logic for searching the next target after slaying a target is now smarter.

 

A noteworthy addition is the ability for players to switch heroes and modify desired emblems, battle spells, and setups directly in the training camp without having to exit the battle. It is important to note that this feature will only be accessible once the update resource is downloaded.
