A new marksman hero has arrived in Mobile Legends: Bang Bang and her name is Ixia, the Arclight Outlaw. Players who are interested in testing her abilities can hop on the game’s advanced server to download Beta Patch 1.7.78.
Shoot Enemies Down
Ixia is a new marksman hero in Mobile Legends. She can deal incredible amounts of damage using her Arclight weapon.
Unlike other heroes in the game, Ixia’s basic attacks cannot benefit from lifesteal. But this is compensated by her passive ability, Arc Siphon. Each basic attack applies a mark on the target, and once the enemy has two marks, Ixia’s next basic attack deals extra damage and restores HP equal to the amount of damage dealt.
Ixia’s first skill is called Dual Arc. As the name implies, Ixia fires two Arclight beams in a target direction, dealing physical damage. Enemies hit by both beams at the same time take double damage.
Arc Helix, Ixia’s second skill, is a canister of Arc energy that can be thrown in a target direction, pulling enemies to the center after a short delay. This synergizes well with her first skill, where she utilizes Arc Helix to bunch enemies up together for them to get hit by the two beams from Dual Arc, resulting in massive damage.
Her ultimate, Arclight Barrage, has two effects. When activated, she enters a Barrage state that grants her increased movement speed when she’s out of combat. This effect is immediately lost when she engages in battle.
During Barrage State, Ixia can hit multiple enemies with her basic attacks in a cone-shaped area in front of her. The range of Dual Arc and Arc Helix is also increased during this time.
