Mobile Legends: Bang Bang Patch 2.8 Overhauls Jungle and Buffs Franco

Moontonton has released the full notes for Mobile Legends: Bang Bang Patch 2.8, the biggest balance update of the fourth quarter. Fourteen heroes receive changes, with Franco getting a second hook charge at level 4 and Cyclops gaining faster mana regeneration.

Jungle rework explained

Jungle creeps now share XP with nearby teammates only after the 3-minute mark, a change designed to punish hyper-carry rotations in early ranked matches. The Lord also spawns earlier at 7 minutes if the first Turtle is secured within 90 seconds.

The ranked season resets on 24 October, dropping everyone to Mythic or lower. Moontonton confirmed compensation emblems will arrive by in-game mail within 48 hours of the update going live.
