Mobile Legends: Bang Bang Finally Adds Novaria to the Official Server

After nearly three months of playtesting, Moonton Studios has finally brought Novaria to the Mobile Legends: Bang Bang official server in Patch 1.7.82.

Novaria, for those who don't know, is a new mage in Mobile Legends: Bang Bang who is capable of eliminating enemies from afar using astral magic.

Apart from Novaria's introduction, Patch 1.7.82 implemented balancing adjustments to certain heroes as well. The main focus of these changes is to improve less popular tanks and fighters to encourage more players to pick them.

For instance, the cast range of Gatotkaca's enhanced basic attacks has been slightly increased, making it easier for him to hit enemies. Additionally, he now does a short-range dash to cut the distance between him and his target.

Here are the other hero balancing adjustments:

Alpha

• Passive
  • Revamped Effect: Beta will lock on to an enemy after hitting them twice. Whenever Alpha attacks a target that Beta has locked onto, Beta will follow up with a laser attack that deals damage and briefly slows the target.
  • Beta's Laser Damage: 80 (+8 per level) (+100% Total Physical Attack) True Damage
• Skill 1
  • Greatly reduced the time it takes for Beta to attack.

Bane
