The Peerless Light patch brings fresh excitement into Mobile Legends: Bang Bang. Discover details of the new Hero Lukas, balance changes, and a great collaboration.

The mobile MOBA game MLBB gets a new big update. The balance adjustments affect many Heroes — and probably those you pick up regularly. The character roster gets a new beast, which is also a handsome boy. 

An interesting competitive feature has been added to Mobile Legends: Bang Bang. And even if the developers don’t talk about this openly, they clearly hint at the new collaboration: MLBB and Hunter x Hunter.

All the details of the Peerless Light patch in Mobile Legends are here.

MLBB Lukas: A new Hero

Arguably the biggest and the most exciting aspect of this Mobile Legends patch is a new Hero — Lukas. 

The character is awesome! MLBB Lukas combines a human form and a fearsome beast. Both are powered by the Light.

Lukas was revealed during the MLBB M6 World Championship.

Mobile Legends Lukas: Abilities

The battle kit of Lukas in Mobile Legends is whirling around his role as a Fighter on the EXP Lane. The Hero is meant to deal massive damage and dominate team fights.

  • Burst and Resolve: Ultimate and Passive of MLBB Lukas

The Hero gains a special Resolve meter passively, throughout the game. When this gauge is full, Lukas can transform into his beast form — and be in it until Resolve is over.

When Lukas is already in the beast form, his Ultimate is a massive shockwave blast that deals huge damage at a big distance. 

  • Flash Combo, Skill 1 (Damage)

The Damage skill of Lukas MLBB is different for human and beast forms. Also, the Hero gains unique stacks with his Basic Attack: up to two that power up the Flash Combo.

In the human form, Lukas dashes forward and punches his opponent (no stacks); pushes them back, attacks, and stuns (one stack); or delivers a series of damaging hits in addition to the previous effects (two stacks).

In the beast form, Mobile Legends Lukas has an increased attack range.

  • Flash Step, Skill 2 (Mobility)

Lukas dashes forward to deliver an enhanced Basic Attack from behind. This skill applies increased damage and attack speed alongside a bigger attack range.

If the beast form is active, the new MLBB hero covers a bigger distance with his Flash Step.

MLBB Combos with Lukas

The following combos are recommended for Lukas in Mobile Legends:

  • Skill 2 -> 2x Basic Attack -> Skill 1 -> Basic Attack
  • Ultimate (transform) -> Skill 2 -> 2x Basic Attack -> Skill 1 -> Ultimate

MLBB Peerless Light: Balance changes

Sure the Peerless Light patch for Mobile Legends: Bang Bang is not only about Lukas. The update brings balance changes for the existing Heroes.

The main focus is to make Basic Attack Heroes more relevant in MLBB matches. 

Also, minor adjustments come to other Heroes, such as an increased range of Basic Attack for Cici, an enhanced HP restoration for Dyrroth, and better mid-game damage for Irither.
