With the Project NEXT Update 2023 announced, it will look at huge changes in Emblem Setups, Revamped Heroes, and more. With the ongoing Patch 1.7.90 Update, there will be some Equipment changes, some slight balance adjustments for other heroes, and more. Let us break down the Patch 1.7.90 Update in Mobile Legends of Advanced Server in detail.
Mobile Legends Patch 1.7.90 Update: Hero Adjustments
Harley (Adjusted)
Following our previous experimental changes, developers are not changing the fact that his Ultimate can be blocked when locked on, but adding a damage preview so that both sides can decide what’s best to do. Also, developers are slightly lowering his Ultimate damage for the early-to-mid game after increasing his Basic Attack.
Passive (↑)
New Effect: Dealing damage with Basic Attacks or skills increases Harley’s Attack Speed by 5-10%, scales with his level. It stacks up to 10.
Skill 1 (↓)
Effect Removed: Attack Speed increases based on the number of hits on the enemy.
Skill 2 (↑)
- Movement Speed: +30% for 4s >> +60% maximum, decaying over 4s.
- Cooldown Reduction: 8.5-6.5s >> 11-8s (the skill now enters cooldown immediately after its first attack. It will no longer be determined by whether the second attack was cast or not).
- Mana Cost: 60-110 >> 75-0
Ultimate (~)
- One can now preview the damage to the enemy hero he’s about to hit.
- Total Damage Ratio: 50% >> 30%-50% (scales with hero level)
- Second Attack Damage: 100-200 + 30% Magic Power >> 200 + 50% Magic Power
Yu Zhong (Adjusted)
Developers will test multiple optimization directions for Yu Zhong in future patches. This time, developers are reverting the damage enhancement for his skill 1 and instead enhancing his other skills.
Skill 1 (↓)
Base Damage: 250-450 + 115% Extra Physical Attack >> 220-400 + 100% Extra Physical Attack
Skill 2 (↑)
Increased the range of his Enhanced Basic Attack.
Ultimate (↑)
- New Effect: His Ultimate is increasing Hybrid Defense.
- One no longer deals damage to nearby enemies at the end of his Ultimate.

Skill 1 (↑)
Damage: 125-225 + 60% Total Physical Attack >> 170-295 + 80% Total Physical Attack
Ultimate (↓)
- Leaving combat no longer increases Movement Speed. It already took effect in the previous patch.
- Tapping her Basic Attack once after casting her Ultimate no longer lines up a subsequent Basic Attack. Players now need to tap it when they want to use it again.
Odette (Nerfed)
Odette’s Ultimate has been dealing much more damage now that she’s immune to basic CCs. Developers are slightly nerfing it.

Chang’e (Adjusted)
Skill 2 (~)
Her Enhanced Basic Attack damage is now regarded as Basic Attack damage.
Mobile Legends Patch 1.7.90 Update: Battlefield Adjustments
Equipment changes
Malefic Roar (↓)
Percentage Penetration equipment should only be used against heroes relying on high Defense, instead of being a go-to option for early-to-mid game. Therefore, developers are adjusting the equipment’s effects to deal damage based on the enemies’ Defense (ignoring base Penetration; the effects remain the same against enemies with 200 Physical Defence).
- Physical Attack: 50 >> 60
- Physical Penetration: 40% >> 15%
- Penetration Increase per Defense: 0.05% >> 0.15%
