Since the release of one of the most content patches on Mobile Legends: Bang Bang in June 2021 as part of the Project NEXT game, many new Mobile Legends skills and items introduced during the patch have become a highlight for many players.
Changes have been made to equipment, as well as several new equipment introduced to the game. There are minor changes to some equipment, and major changes to others, but overall, some adjustments to the build and playstyle are necessary to ensure that players continue to perform at optimal levels on the battlefield.
In this exclusive editorial article, we'll take a look at how the new Mobile Legends items affect the most effective (meta) tactics available in Mobile Legends: Bang Bang, as well as everything you need to know about all the new changes Moonton has introduced.
Mobile Legends New Items
Jungling Items and Moves Combined
First, the new combination of Movement items with Roam and Jungling items is a relatively new concept for Mobile Legends: Bang Bang players. This change establishes a new type of gear in the game which is sure to significantly impact the current meta.
New Roaming Footwear Skills
Apart from that, this new patch has also brought several new Roaming Footwear skills for Mobile Legends: Bang Bang, namely Conceal, Push, Favor, and Dire Hit. This skill will definitely affect the decision that Roamer heroes make when they first buy their Roaming Boots when entering the battlefield.
New Jungling Footwear Skill
As for the new Jungling Footwear skill, it is quite similar to the abilities provided by Raptor Machete, Star Shard, and Beast Killer in the previous patch.
The best part about this new Mobile Legends item is that Jungler heroes now have the luxury to choose which skills they want to use in each game.
While there are no extra stat bonuses with each Jungle stack increase, unlocking new skills simply by gaining 5 stacks through killing creeps or enemy heroes won't be a problem for Jungler heroes to finish quickly.
Anti-Regen Items
The next new Mobile Legends item is the Anti-Regen Item. Regen-based heroes are very difficult to deal with, especially in the late game when all their items are crafted and they have a large amount of healing abilities.
A good way for players to overcome this in battle is to buy anti-regen equipment such as the Necklace of Durance, Sea Halberd, and now Dominance Ice.

Physical and Magic Penetration Items
With a new way of calculating Penetration in Mobile Legends: Bang Bang, items that provide additional Penetration such as Arcane Boots, Genius Wand, Malefic Roar, and others should receive more attention and popularity in this Project NEXT patch and the upcoming season.
A hero's Defense Stat can now be lowered beyond zero and up to -60, so picking up Penetration-boosting items early will benefit many heroes. In addition, new effects have also been added to these items which optimize their performance and better support the current meta.
To counter the new Penetration burst, Radiant Armor has also become available as one of the newest Defense items, which provides an increase in Magic Damage Reduction by 3-10 after taking Magic Damage (scales with level), lasts 3 seconds and caps at 6.
This stack will likely put DPS Mages like Chang'e, Yve, or Harley out of fashion and instead, popularize Burst Mages like Eudora and Aurora.
With the introduction of the all new Mobile Legends: Bang Bang item, many new gamers, both seasoned veterans and new players, may feel overwhelmed.
We hope that this exclusive editorial article will help you understand the new Mobile Legends items better and how they affect the current Mobile Legends meta.
