Moonton released the last Mobile Legends: Bang Bang patch for this year, patch 1.7.44, yesterday afternoon.

Aside from the complete overhaul of Hanabi, many marksman heroes were also tweaked, such as those who fell off in the meta such as Layla and Natan. There were also a total of 12 items that were adjusted in this patch.

Here are all the buffs, nerfs, hero revamps, and battlefield adjustments in patch 1.7.44.


The rework to marksman hero Hanabi is up in Mobile Legends patch 1.7.44

Passive – Ninjutsu: Petal Barrage

  • All of Hanabi’s basic attacks and abilities will passively trigger Petal Blades and no longer require a toggle. Her Basic Attack Petal Blade bounces can trigger Attack Effects.

Skill 1 – Ninjutsu: Equinox

  • Hanabi gains a 5s shield after casting the skill. While the shield is active, she gains control Immunity, extra movement speed, and attack speed, and converts a percentage of damage dealt into shield value.

Skill 2 – Ninjutsu: Soul Scroll

  • This skill now also triggers her passive. It also marks targets hit, causing the next Petal Blade bounce to deal full damage on them. Since Hanabi no longer uses Mana on her Basic Attacks, its mana regeneration has been removed.

Ultimate – Forbidden Jutsu: Higanbana

  • Higanbana now also triggers her passive. The first hero hit is immobilized, and Higanbana blooms at that location after a short delay to deal AOE damage.
