Mobile Legends: Bang Bang Developers Changed How Natalia’s Passive Works in Beta Patch 1.7.72

Some interesting changes have been implemented in Beta Patch 1.7.72 for Mobile Legends: Bang Bang. One of those has something to do with Natalia’s stealth state.

Natalia is a pretty strong assassin hero in Mobile Legends. Part of her charm is that she’s able to go into stealth mode two seconds after entering a bush. While an exclamation point warns enemies that she’s nearby, it seems that not a lot of people who actually see her can react in time.

So, the developers implemented an experimental change in Beta Patch 1.7.72. Now, Natalia gains Camouflage after one second in a bush, which pertains for a set period. Although exclamation marks will no longer appear over Natalia or the enemies’ heads, she’s slightly more visible now, giving her foes an easier time spotting her.

According to the devs, this change was made so that Natalia enters stealth slightly quicker than before but at the cost of being partially visible to the enemy to keep things fair.
