Wishing Lantern in MLBB is a new Equipment that arrived with the game's recent Project NEXT update in June 2024. The revamped Equipment system in MLBB was expected to make the game more enjoyable for beginners and more intense for the pros. However, the introduction of new Equipment has led to some confusion in the community.

This article describes the powers of Wishing Lantern in MLBB and tries to determine the heroes best suited to use this Equipment in their builds.


Details about Wishing Lantern in MLBB and the best heroes to use it

The Wishing Lantern in MLBB provides the user with:

  • +70 Magic Power
  • +10% Cooldown Reduction

This Equipment has a unique passive that can summon a Butterfly Goddess for every 800 magic damage dealt to the enemy. The Butterfly Goddess then attacks the enemy hero, dealing 10% magic damage of their total HP.

The Wishing Lantern is designed for the Mages (especially Zhuxin). However, this Equipment pairs well with some of the best Mages in MLBB allowing them to channel their abilities to different damage sources.

For example, units like Zhuxin, Cecelion, Chang'e, and others have mastered the trick of channeling their abilities to multiple damage sources using their ultimate and can thereby utilize the powers of the Butterfly Goddess perfectly. This makes the Wishing Lantern a perfect addition to Chang'e's Equipment build in MLBB.

However, units like Harley and Lunox can also benefit from using the latest Equipment. If the Wishing Lantern in MLBB becomes a part of their early game build, they can secure more kills easily.

Here is a list of heroes who can benefit from using the Wishing Lantern in MLBB.

  • Chang'e (Mage)
  • Lunox (Mage)
  • Cecelion (Mage)
  • Kadita (Mage)
  • Zhuxin (Mage)
  • Harley (Mage)
  • Kadita (Mage)
  • Novaria (Mage)
  • Odette (Mage)
  • Gord (Mage)
  • Guison (Assassin)
  • Kimmy (Marksman)

Sky Piercer is another amazing Equipment for Assassins like Guison. Find out more about it in this link.


What can be the best-suited Emblem Set for these units?

Finding the best Emblem Set for the heroes mentioned above is another crucial aspect of their Equipment build, as, without the right ones, the best builds on any of these top-tier units will fail in MLBB.

You can use the Custom Mage Emblem, Custom Marksman Emblem, and Custom Assassin Emblem sets for the heroes listed above depending on their class. Units like Harley can work with both the Mage and Assassin Emblems sets. However, choosing the right Emblem for each tier of the Emblem set can be tricky. You need to choose Emblems that complement the power of these heroes.
