Mobile Legends: Bang Bang has a new hero, and he’s now available on the advanced server. The Beta Patch 1.6.98 introduces Fredrinn, the Treasure Appraiser.
This new hero is a tank/fighter hybrid in Mobile Legends: Bang Bang. He has this passive ability that turns the damage he receives into Crystal Energy (depicted by the gray HP bar) which decays after five seconds. More crystal energy stored translates to higher damage for his ultimate. What’s more, he can convert the crystal energy into HP based on 40% of the damage dealt within the duration.
Now, Fredrinn gains a combo point every time he uses his first and second skills on a non-minion enemy. Combo points can enhance Fredrinn’s next basic attack and are used for his ultimate. It is important to note that Fredrinn’s third skill, Energy Eruption, needs one combo point. When used, it deals physical damage to nearby enemies and taunts them for a brief period.
Beta Patch 1.6.98 also brought balancing changes and improvements. You can read them below:
