Starting from the Patch 1.7.40 Update in?Mobile Legends, the developers at?MOONTON Games?are aiming to nerf down the overpowered heroes like?Yve,?Leomord,?and?Wanwan?in some situations, as well as buffing the likes of?Valentina,?Minotaur,?and more. This Patch Update will also bring?Arlott?into the midst, who is a new Unique-type?Fighter hero. These adjustments will be worked upon in the?Advanced Server?before they officially make their way into the Original Server.
New Hero: Arlott
Arlott?is one of the newest heroes to be introduced in the world of Mobile Legends, who is a fighter hero with a unique-type?blink, CC,?and?AoE. Let us break down his abilities.
Abilities
Passive – Demon Gaze (Buff)
It is a very unique passive of Arlott. Whenever enemy heroes are in front of Arlott (hidden enemies in the bush are excluded), they will be exposed by his crowd control effect every?10 seconds. Arlott will find their weakness, and a critical hit is guaranteed if he hits them with his?skill 2 for 5 seconds. When the enemies are exposed to his skill, they will glow in red, which will help Arlott to cast his skill.
Skill 1 – Dauntless Strike (CC, AoE)
CD – 8/7.4/6.8/6.2/5.6/5
Mana – 50/55/60/65/70/75
Arlott slashes his lance in a specific direction, slowing enemies by?40% for 2 seconds?while dealing?200 (+60% Total Physical Attack) /240/280/320/360/400?physical damage. The best part of the skill is that enemies on the outside will be stunned for?1 second, while enemies on the inside will be stunned for a short period of time. So now if the enemies are exposed by Arlott’s passive and he stuns them, he can dash multiple times by using his second skill.
Skill 2 – Vengeance (Damage, Blink)
CD – 12/11.6/11.2/10.8/10.4/10
Mana – 40
This is a dash/escape skill for Arlott. Upon casting, Arlott will dash in a designated direction while dealing?100 (+40% Total Physical Attack)/140/180/220/260/300?physical damage. Enemies who are marked by his passive (demon gaze) will receive a critical strike, and?Vengeance?will be reset immediately. He can mark multiple enemies with his passive, so it will help Arlott dash consecutively by using his second skill.
Skill 3 – Final Slash (CC, AoE)
CD – 20/18/16
Mana – 10/120/140
Arlott splits his lance, directing all of his enemies to his right side and inflicting?400 (+60% total physical attack)/600/800?physical damage. You can even use it to move enemies across the wall. Upon casting this skill, enemies will be marked by?Demon Gaze, so Arlott can use his skill 2 freely.
