<onlyinclude>== Public Beta v1.0 - (10th November 2021) ==
=== Introduction ===
Welcome to the absolutely massive Public Beta 1.0 update for Melvor Idle!
 
This update introduces most of the promised Major Features from the roadmap, plus a lot of other goodies to go with it.
 
The Public Beta is a symbol of an almost complete game. This is an achievement I never thought I would ever reach when I started this journey in September 2019.
 
To be able to finally declare the game is finished is an unbelievable feeling. But we aren’t there just yet. Full Release is on November 18, and this Public Beta is here to give you the content early, and also spend time focusing on bug fixes from here on until the launch.
 
'''Important:''' This update is the full 1.0. When the game launches on November 18, you will not see any new inclusions other than localisation.
 
The next 8 days for me are dedicated to fixing as many reported bugs as possible, so I can ensure the full launch on November 18 is as smooth as possible.
 
This changelog is MASSIVE, so please take the time to read everything that changed, and everything that was added. There’s some amazing stuff in here and I don’t want you to miss it.
 
===Endgame Content Pt. 3===
====Introduction====
The time has finally come to introduce the last piece of the {{Icon|Combat}} puzzle.
 
Endgame Content Pt.3 introduces the final boss for Melvor Idle, as well as a lot of new Monsters, Items and balance changes across {{Icon|Combat|nolink=true}}.
 
It has been a very long time coming, and the inclusion this brings is one of the largest additions to the game we have ever done. I’ll do my best to break down exactly what we added, and what has changed.
 
====Impending Darkness Event====
The Final Boss is hidden deep inside an “{{ZoneIcon|Impending Darkness Event|Event}}”. Your task is to slay various Monsters who have succumbed to the final boss’ mysterious mist and eventually defeat him when the chance arises.
 
=====Event Mechanics=====
The event requires Level 99 in all Skills, and access to all {{Skill|Slayer}} areas.
 
Upon beginning the Event, all Combat content will be '''locked''' and will remain locked until the Event is either finished, ended, or you die.
 
Upon starting the Event, you will be greeted with a popup asking you to select a random modifier combination from a selection of 3. The modifiers you select will apply to every single Monster you face during the event.
 
After this, your task is to trawl through the hardest Slayer Areas in the game, defeating a random number of Monsters (5-8) within that area until it has been cleared. The final monster you face within the respective areas will be a “Boss” version of one of the Monsters.
 
Upon clearing all of the Slayer Areas, the Final Boss will appear to try and stop you in your tracks. You must defeat him to continue to the next part of the event.
 
=====Event Cycles=====
The Event occurs for a total of 5 cycles. One cycle is completed after defeating the Final Boss, in which you will then begin the next cycle, repeating the above Mechanics.
 
The completion of a cycle will provide you with a set reward for your efforts. This reward is always the same, depending on what cycle you just completed.
 
When beginning a new cycle, you will be asked to select '''another''' modifier combination. This Combination you select is then '''added to all previous Modifiers you selected'''. This means by cycle 5, you will have 5 different Modifier combinations active at the same time, so choose wisely.
 
The very last Monster you face at the end of Cycle 5 is the true Final Boss. Good luck, you will need it.
 
====Important Information====
There’s some very important information you need to know about the event, so please read this as it will clear a lot of confusion about how the Event works:
 
* The Event takes roughly 2 hours to complete, assuming you don’t die and are well prepared.
* You only need to complete the event once for all possible rewards.
* All Combat content is locked during the event. You cannot do any Combat outside of what the Event provides.
* Yes, you are able to train Non-Combat Skills during the event (Just not at the same time of course).
* Your event progress will be saved, and the only way to reset the event is to either manually end it with the provided button, or by dying. Closing the game or training a Non-Combat Skill will not reset the event.
* Running in Combat during the event will not reset the event. If something is too hard, you may Run from Combat and attempt it again.
* '''This is a safe Event for Hardcore Characters. Dying in here will not result in the loss of your character.'''

===New Skill: Astrology===
====Introduction====
{{Skill|Astrology}} is the final Skill to be added to Melvor Idle for v1.0.
 
Now, ignore all the modern day Horoscope nonsense and let me take you back to medieval times where Melvor Idle is set.
 
Astrology is all about discovery of the Stars, or “constellations” as they are referred to in Melvor Idle. Utilising your knowledge of these constellations to empower your character with bonuses in almost every Skill in the game.
 
The idea behind Astrology was to go back to the complete basics of Melvor Idle and implement a Skill that provides nothing but bonuses to you. There are no external GP Costs, Item Costs, Level requirements or anything within this Skill. It is something that can be solely trained alone without the help of another external Skill.
 
Everything you need to level up and unlock new bonuses comes from Astrology itself.
 
At heart Astrology is a “gathering” Skill. A Skill that can be trained all the way until Level 99 without requiring anything else. It’s a breath of fresh air from the complexity the game has to offer with the recent Skills added to the game.
 
====Mechanics====
There are 11 unique constellations for you to study, each assigned two different Skills that can be boosted.
 
You are able to study these constellations to earn Skill XP, unlocking their benefits as you continue to progress. Studying any constellation will provide a chance for two new resources to be acquired automatically - {{ItemIcon|Stardust}} and {{ItemIcon|Golden Stardust}}.
 
Within each constellation you will find 6 different Stars that each grants a random modifier. The modifier that is applied to these stars can be rolled by you at a cost of {{ItemIcon|Stardust|nolink=true}} or {{ItemIcon|Golden Stardust|nolink=true}}, and are chosen from a predetermined list of modifiers that are visible within the constellations themselves.
 
The Modifiers you roll are active at all times, and will remain active until you decide to reroll it for a new one.
 
====Standard and Unique Modifiers====
The modifiers you are able to roll are separated into two distinct categories - '''Standard Modifiers''' and '''Unique Modifiers'''.
 
'''Standard Modifiers''' are largely the same within all constellations, depending on whether the Skill they benefit is {{Icon|Combat}} related or not. Each constellation houses 3 stars that can contain one Standard Modifier each. These are rerolled at the cost of {{ItemIcon|Stardust}}.
 
'''Unique Modifiers''' provide bonuses unique to that constellation only, and are generally great modifiers to have active throughout the game. Each constellation houses 3 stars that can contain one Unique Modifier each. These are enrolled at the cost of {{ItemIcon|Golden Stardust}}. But be careful, {{ItemIcon|Golden Stardust|nolink=true}} is quite rare to come by.
 
====Expansion====
Although Astrology is simple in terms of its mechanics and purpose in the game, it has been designed with future expansion in mind. This skill opens up a lot of different avenues for the game, and will eventually provide a lot of unique mechanics to the game which will be quite noticeable in the Level 120 Content Expansion.
 
Right now, the Skill is all about giving you nothing but bonuses. In the future, it will be the doorway to new mechanics and pathways when leveling up a character.
 
Astrology will also help you with the challenges to come in Endgame Content Pt.3 and beyond.
 
====4th Equipment Set====
With the introduction of Astrology being the final Skill added to the game, it’s time to finally give you one of the most requested additions.
 
You are now able to purchase a 4th {{UpgradeIcon|Extra Equipment Set}} from the Shop. It requires {{SkillReq|Astrology|99}} and {{GP|100000000}} to unlock. This will be fantastic for a Skilling setup.
 
====New Potion====
We have added a {{Icon|Secret Stardust Potion}} to {{Skill|Herblore}} which will greatly assist in your {{Skill|Astrology}} training, even well beyond Level 99.
 
===Statistics 2.0===
It’s been a long time coming, but I can finally introduce you to the new Statistics 2.0 that has been included in this update.
 
The aim for this rework wasn’t necessarily to provide you with every single stat imaginable, but it was more to rework the whole system behind the scenes that will allow for very easy implementation of new stats in the future.
 
With this rework, many stats have either been reset or are sitting at 0. This is due to it not being possible to track statistics that were never tracked in the first place.
 
Of course, we have added more stats for more Skills alongside this.
 
We have added statistics for the following:
* {{Skill|Agility}}
* {{Skill|Summoning}}
* {{Skill|Astrology}}
* {{Skill|Alt. Magic}}
* {{Skill|Attack|Melee}} Combat
* {{Skill|Ranged}} Combat
* {{Skill|Magic}} Combat
* {{Skill|Prayer}}
* {{Skill|Slayer}}
* Shop
 
All non-Combat skills now have these additional stats:
* Total actions performed
* Time spent in Skill
* Total items created
* Total resources used
* Total resources preserved
 
Some new notable Stat additions:
* Account Age (Not retroactive)
* {{ItemIcon|Aorpheat's Signet Ring|Signet Ring}} Halves Missed
 
You will continue to see many new Statistics over coming updates and Expansions.
 
===Updated Completion Log===
The Completion Log has finally received its well overdue facelift!
 
This update brings in new UI enhancements, and some lovely celebration animations so you can party with yourself for achieving a massive Milestone in a single player game.
 
====New Completion Log UI====
The Completion Log has moved to its own page, where you can select the Completion Category you wish to view, as well as see a total completion progress bar at the top!
 
====Updated Item Log====
* The Item Log now as some minor UI changes to make it look nicer.
* You can now search for items within the Item Log.
* Hovering/tapping on a hidden item will now tell you the name of the Item that is yet to be discovered.
* There’s a few new Item Log filtering options - Show All, Show Discovered Items, Show Undiscovered Items.
 
====Updated Monster & Pet Log====
* Minor UI facelift of the Monster & Pet Log, increasing the size of the images.
* Monster Log is now separated into Normal Monsters and Dungeon Bosses at the bottom.
 
====New Milestone Celebration Animations====
Upon reaching a Milestone, you will now be greeted with a lovely fireworks display to congratulate you on your achievement.
 
=====Milestones that activate the animation=====
* Reaching Level 99 in any Skill
* Achieving 100% Completion
* Achieving 100% Mastery
* Achieving 100% Items
* Achieving 100% Monsters
* Achieving 100% Pets
 
====Updated Popup UI for Milestones====
Some Milestones have received a new UI to better communicate the achievement you reached:
 
* Leveling up any Skill now has a nice popup at the top of the screen.
* Achieving Level 99 {{Icon|Mastery}} for any item will provide a similar popup at the top of the screen.
* Fireworks :D
 
===Tutorial Island===
This is well overdue, but we finally got there in the end!
 
Tutorial Island has been added to the game which will guide new players through the basic mechanics and Skills that Melvor Idle has to offer.
 
Upon beginning a new Character, you will drop into Tutorial Island and be required to complete basic tasks. It’s quite similar to how Old School RuneScape does it, and it should provide the player with enough basic knowledge to get going on their adventure.
 
If you do not want to do the Tutorial, you can skip it with the required button.
 
I hope the addition of Tutorial Island will assist players with the initial overwhelming feeling you generally receive when first loading up the game. It takes roughly 10-20 minutes to complete.
 
===Tick-Based Skills===
We promised a little while ago that eventually all Skills will transition to a Tick-Based system, just like {{Icon|Combat}} and {{Skill|Thieving}} currently are.
 
The benefits of Tick-Based Skills means you can progress through a Skill at an identical rate online as you can offline. It also means development of skills is a lot easier for us because we do not need to manage two separate code bases for online and offline functionality.
 
Tick-Based Skills also provide the benefit of {{Icon|Mastery}} bonuses applying at the exact time you level up, meaning you do not need to log in to the game to activate Mastery bonuses.
 
This update transitions two Skills to the new Tick-Based System:
 
* {{Skill|Firemaking}}
* {{Skill|Mining}}
 
'''The transition to Tick-Based also means the {{Icon|Controlled Heat Potion|Controlled Heat}} & {{Icon|Perfect Swing Potion|Perfect Swing Potions}} now work offline!'''
 
{{Skill|Mining}} also received a minor QoL update in the process:
 
* {{Skill|Mining}} nodes now passively regenerate 1 HP every 10 seconds.
* Depleting a node will still act the same as before and restore it to full HP after a set time period.
 
A lot of reported {{Skill|Mining}} bugs were also rectified in this transition. We will detail those below in the Bug Fix change list.
 
===Offline Time Cap Increase===
Now that the game is finally complete, and we have a total of 23 Skills for you to train, I was now able to look at the whole picture and see what changes would benefit the player the most.
 
The Offline Time Cap of 12 hours is reasonable, up until a certain point. I solely believe that as more content is added to the game, this time cap should gradually increase alongside it.
 
'''The Offline Time Cap has been increased to 18 hours for all players.'''
 
Now, this does not mean every content update will come with an increase. It simply means that it is an area I consider upon updating the game. Nothing is always set in stone, and I’m always listening to feedback around to game in areas like this.
 
===New Farming Plant Option (QoL)===
The addition of Passive {{Skill|Cooking}} and utilisation of multiple {{Skill|Farming}} ingredients made it clear that {{Skill|Farming|nolink=true}} needed a slight adjustment to help with your crop management.
 
This update comes equipped with a new “Plant All Selected” {{Skill|Farming|nolink=true}} option.
 
You can now assign any seed to a plot in the respective seed category, and the game will plant that seed in that plot when you press this button.
 
This means you are now able to grow many different crops at the same time with the click of a single button.
 
The new planting option is unlocked for everyone, there is no shop upgrade required to activate it.
 
===Looting QoL===
This is one of the most discussed and suggested changes Melvor Idle has ever seen. I don’t think there is a day that goes by where a suggestion to do something about the Looting mechanic, especially for late game players.
 
As the development of the game progressed, and the content you faced became harder, it became clear that the absolute requirement to have the {{ItemIcon|Amulet of Looting}} equipped for your grinds was not a good mechanic to have.
 
In general, it is okay to use it for part of the game, but not for everything you face after acquiring it.
 
These changes aim to make Looting a bit better for all players, and also open up an Amulet slot for late game players taking on harder content.
 
* Running from Combat will now automatically loot everything in the Loot container. No more accidental lost loot.
* {{UpgradeIcon|Loot Container Stacking}} Shop Upgrade - Unlocks the ability for all items to Stack within the Loot Container.
* Increased the Loot Container to 100 slots, up from 16. This should allow for a majority of items to stay inside the loot container with the stacking shop upgrade unlocked.
 
These 3 changes when combined should provide a much better looting experience for all.
 
===New Melvor Idle Logo & Branding===
As you have already noticed, Melvor Idle has a brand new logo!
 
This is something I have always wanted to explore, and now with 1.0 just around the corner, it was the perfect time to get it done.
 
I am absolutely in love with how the logo turned out, and I believe it really shows the personality Melvor Idle has to offer.
 
Alongside the new logo, I have many new assets and artwork to use on various platforms to keep everything consistent and in line with the game’s design principles.
 
===Localisation===
'''Important Note:''' Localisation will not be activated until 1.0 is officially released on November 18.
 
Melvor Idle will now be localised in the following 13 different languages:
* English
* French
* Italian
* German
* Spanish
* Portuguese
* Brazilian Portuguese
* Russian
* Turkish
* Traditional Chinese
* Simplified Chinese
* Korean
* Japanese
 
This will hopefully open up the game to many new players around the world, and will allow for more people to enjoy the game in their native language.
 
Every update, including changelogs and store pages, will be localised in the same 13 languages.
 
===Other Changes===
Here is a list of other new things and changes that did not fit in the above categories.
 
====New====
* Equipment that provides bonuses based on other items being equipped now have colour matching borders around them to indicate that the bonus is active
* The effects of a monster being Afflicted during the {{ZoneIcon|Into the Mist}} dungeon is now viewable as an Enemy Passive.
* If you missed it above, the {{Icon|Controlled Heat Potion|Controlled Heat}} & {{Icon|Perfect Swing Potion|Perfect Swing Potions}} now work Offline.
 
====Changes====
* A large amount of code related to the game's interface has been changed in preparation of localizing the game. You hopefully won't notice any changes (if you do please let us know), but this may break Scripts/Extensions.
* Increased the quantity of {{ItemIcon|Bones}} from {{Icon|Bone Offering|type=spell}} from 2 to 3.
* Increased the quantity of {{ItemIcon|Holy Dust}} from {{Icon|Blessed Offering|type=spell}} from 2 to 3.
* {{Skill|Slayer}} Area effects now visually update based on your current amount of Slayer Area Effect Negation
* You can now receive the {{MonsterIcon|Leech}}, {{MonsterIcon|Ice Monster}}, {{MonsterIcon|Skeleton}}, {{MonsterIcon|Zombie Hand}}, {{MonsterIcon|Zombie}} and {{MonsterIcon|Ghost}} as {{Skill|Slayer}} tasks.
 
===Bug Fixes===

* Fixed {{Skill|Mining}} Rock respawn/HP/Damage not calculating correctly.
* Fixed issues with {{Skill|Mining}} calculations while offline, usually resulting in less progress when training Offline.

Public Beta v1.0 - (10th November 2021)

Introduction

Welcome to the absolutely massive Public Beta 1.0 update for Melvor Idle!

This update introduces most of the promised Major Features from the roadmap, plus a lot of other goodies to go with it.

The Public Beta is a symbol of an almost complete game. This is an achievement I never thought I would ever reach when I started this journey in September 2019.

To be able to finally declare the game is finished is an unbelievable feeling. But we aren’t there just yet. Full Release is on November 18, and this Public Beta is here to give you the content early, and also spend time focusing on bug fixes from here on until the launch.

Important: This update is the full 1.0. When the game launches on November 18, you will not see any new inclusions other than localisation.

The next 8 days for me are dedicated to fixing as many reported bugs as possible, so I can ensure the full launch on November 18 is as smooth as possible.

This changelog is MASSIVE, so please take the time to read everything that changed, and everything that was added. There’s some amazing stuff in here and I don’t want you to miss it.

Endgame Content Pt. 3

Introduction

The time has finally come to introduce the last piece of the

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Combat

puzzle. Endgame Content Pt.3 introduces the final boss for Melvor Idle, as well as a lot of new Monsters, Items and balance changes across

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Combat

.

It has been a very long time coming, and the inclusion this brings is one of the largest additions to the game we have ever done. I’ll do my best to break down exactly what we added, and what has changed.

Impending Darkness Event

The Final Boss is hidden deep inside an “

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Event

”. Your task is to slay various Monsters who have succumbed to the final boss’ mysterious mist and eventually defeat him when the chance arises.

Event Mechanics

The event requires Level 99 in all Skills, and access to all

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Slayer

areas.

Upon beginning the Event, all Combat content will be locked and will remain locked until the Event is either finished, ended, or you die.

Upon starting the Event, you will be greeted with a popup asking you to select a random modifier combination from a selection of 3. The modifiers you select will apply to every single Monster you face during the event.

After this, your task is to trawl through the hardest Slayer Areas in the game, defeating a random number of Monsters (5-8) within that area until it has been cleared. The final monster you face within the respective areas will be a “Boss” version of one of the Monsters.

Upon clearing all of the Slayer Areas, the Final Boss will appear to try and stop you in your tracks. You must defeat him to continue to the next part of the event.

Event Cycles

The Event occurs for a total of 5 cycles. One cycle is completed after defeating the Final Boss, in which you will then begin the next cycle, repeating the above Mechanics.

The completion of a cycle will provide you with a set reward for your efforts. This reward is always the same, depending on what cycle you just completed.

When beginning a new cycle, you will be asked to select another modifier combination. This Combination you select is then added to all previous Modifiers you selected. This means by cycle 5, you will have 5 different Modifier combinations active at the same time, so choose wisely.

The very last Monster you face at the end of Cycle 5 is the true Final Boss. Good luck, you will need it.

Important Information

There’s some very important information you need to know about the event, so please read this as it will clear a lot of confusion about how the Event works:

  • The Event takes roughly 2 hours to complete, assuming you don’t die and are well prepared.
  • You only need to complete the event once for all possible rewards.
  • All Combat content is locked during the event. You cannot do any Combat outside of what the Event provides.
  • Yes, you are able to train Non-Combat Skills during the event (Just not at the same time of course).
  • Your event progress will be saved, and the only way to reset the event is to either manually end it with the provided button, or by dying. Closing the game or training a Non-Combat Skill will not reset the event.
  • Running in Combat during the event will not reset the event. If something is too hard, you may Run from Combat and attempt it again.
  • This is a safe Event for Hardcore Characters. Dying in here will not result in the loss of your character.

New Combat and Slayer Areas

Endgame Content Pt.3 introduces new Monsters for you to tackle.

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Combat Balance Changes

With the inclusion of a lot of new Content, we took the time to go through

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Combat

and make necessary balance changes.

Adjustments to Monsters

Higher level monsters have been given Damage Reduction depending on their Combat Level. Boss Monsters at the end of Dungeons have been given a minimum of 20% Damage Deduction.

  • Combat Level between 100-200: 5% Damage Reduction
  • Combat Level between 201-300: 10% Damage Reduction
  • Combat Level between 301-400: 15% Damage Reduction
  • Combat Level between 401-500: 20% Damage Reduction
  • Combat Level above 501: 25% Damage Reduction
New Monster Special Attacks & Passives
  • Dark Horned Elite now has a special attack: Ram (30%) - The enemy rams into you for 100% of the enemy's normal damage. On a hit inflicts a bleed that deals 100% of the damage dealt as damage over 10 second.
  • Furious Horned Elite now has a special attack: Horn Shots (30%) - Fires 3 small horns in rapid succession dealing 60% of the enemy's normal damage each (avoidable).
  • Pegasus now has a Passive: Fleeting Defence: Evasion Ratings are multiplied by 1.3 times current Hitpoints percent.

New Skill: Astrology

Introduction

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Astrology

is the final Skill to be added to Melvor Idle for v1.0.

Now, ignore all the modern day Horoscope nonsense and let me take you back to medieval times where Melvor Idle is set.

Astrology is all about discovery of the Stars, or “constellations” as they are referred to in Melvor Idle. Utilising your knowledge of these constellations to empower your character with bonuses in almost every Skill in the game.

The idea behind Astrology was to go back to the complete basics of Melvor Idle and implement a Skill that provides nothing but bonuses to you. There are no external GP Costs, Item Costs, Level requirements or anything within this Skill. It is something that can be solely trained alone without the help of another external Skill.

Everything you need to level up and unlock new bonuses comes from Astrology itself.

At heart Astrology is a “gathering” Skill. A Skill that can be trained all the way until Level 99 without requiring anything else. It’s a breath of fresh air from the complexity the game has to offer with the recent Skills added to the game.

Mechanics

There are 11 unique constellations for you to study, each assigned two different Skills that can be boosted.

You are able to study these constellations to earn Skill XP, unlocking their benefits as you continue to progress. Studying any constellation will provide a chance for two new resources to be acquired automatically - Stardust and Golden Stardust.

Within each constellation you will find 6 different Stars that each grants a random modifier. The modifier that is applied to these stars can be rolled by you at a cost of Stardust or Golden Stardust, and are chosen from a predetermined list of modifiers that are visible within the constellations themselves.

The Modifiers you roll are active at all times, and will remain active until you decide to reroll it for a new one.

Standard and Unique Modifiers

The modifiers you are able to roll are separated into two distinct categories - Standard Modifiers and Unique Modifiers.

Standard Modifiers are largely the same within all constellations, depending on whether the Skill they benefit is

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Combat

related or not. Each constellation houses 3 stars that can contain one Standard Modifier each. These are rerolled at the cost of Stardust.

Unique Modifiers provide bonuses unique to that constellation only, and are generally great modifiers to have active throughout the game. Each constellation houses 3 stars that can contain one Unique Modifier each. These are enrolled at the cost of Golden Stardust. But be careful, Golden Stardust is quite rare to come by.

Expansion

Although Astrology is simple in terms of its mechanics and purpose in the game, it has been designed with future expansion in mind. This skill opens up a lot of different avenues for the game, and will eventually provide a lot of unique mechanics to the game which will be quite noticeable in the Level 120 Content Expansion.

Right now, the Skill is all about giving you nothing but bonuses. In the future, it will be the doorway to new mechanics and pathways when leveling up a character.

Astrology will also help you with the challenges to come in Endgame Content Pt.3 and beyond.

4th Equipment Set

With the introduction of Astrology being the final Skill added to the game, it’s time to finally give you one of the most requested additions.

You are now able to purchase a 4th

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Extra Equipment Set

from the Shop. It requires

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
 Level 99

and 100,000,000GP to unlock. This will be fantastic for a Skilling setup.

New Potion

We have added a Secret Stardust Potion to

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Herblore

which will greatly assist in your

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Astrology

training, even well beyond Level 99.

Statistics 2.0

It’s been a long time coming, but I can finally introduce you to the new Statistics 2.0 that has been included in this update.

The aim for this rework wasn’t necessarily to provide you with every single stat imaginable, but it was more to rework the whole system behind the scenes that will allow for very easy implementation of new stats in the future.

With this rework, many stats have either been reset or are sitting at 0. This is due to it not being possible to track statistics that were never tracked in the first place.

Of course, we have added more stats for more Skills alongside this.

We have added statistics for the following:

  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Agility
  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Summoning
  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Astrology
  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Alt. Magic
  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Melee     Combat
  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Ranged     Combat
  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Magic     Combat
  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Prayer
  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Slayer
  • Shop

All non-Combat skills now have these additional stats:

  • Total actions performed
  • Time spent in Skill
  • Total items created
  • Total resources used
  • Total resources preserved

Some new notable Stat additions:

  • Account Age (Not retroactive)
  • Signet Ring Halves Missed

You will continue to see many new Statistics over coming updates and Expansions.

Updated Completion Log

The Completion Log has finally received its well overdue facelift!

This update brings in new UI enhancements, and some lovely celebration animations so you can party with yourself for achieving a massive Milestone in a single player game.

New Completion Log UI

The Completion Log has moved to its own page, where you can select the Completion Category you wish to view, as well as see a total completion progress bar at the top!

Updated Item Log

  • The Item Log now as some minor UI changes to make it look nicer.
  • You can now search for items within the Item Log.
  • Hovering/tapping on a hidden item will now tell you the name of the Item that is yet to be discovered.
  • There’s a few new Item Log filtering options - Show All, Show Discovered Items, Show Undiscovered Items.

Updated Monster & Pet Log

  • Minor UI facelift of the Monster & Pet Log, increasing the size of the images.
  • Monster Log is now separated into Normal Monsters and Dungeon Bosses at the bottom.

New Milestone Celebration Animations

Upon reaching a Milestone, you will now be greeted with a lovely fireworks display to congratulate you on your achievement.

Milestones that activate the animation
  • Reaching Level 99 in any Skill
  • Achieving 100% Completion
  • Achieving 100% Mastery
  • Achieving 100% Items
  • Achieving 100% Monsters
  • Achieving 100% Pets

Updated Popup UI for Milestones

Some Milestones have received a new UI to better communicate the achievement you reached:

  • Leveling up any Skill now has a nice popup at the top of the screen.
  • Achieving Level 99
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Mastery     for any item will provide a similar popup at the top of the screen.
  • Fireworks :D

Tutorial Island

This is well overdue, but we finally got there in the end!

Tutorial Island has been added to the game which will guide new players through the basic mechanics and Skills that Melvor Idle has to offer.

Upon beginning a new Character, you will drop into Tutorial Island and be required to complete basic tasks. It’s quite similar to how Old School RuneScape does it, and it should provide the player with enough basic knowledge to get going on their adventure.

If you do not want to do the Tutorial, you can skip it with the required button.

I hope the addition of Tutorial Island will assist players with the initial overwhelming feeling you generally receive when first loading up the game. It takes roughly 10-20 minutes to complete.

Tick-Based Skills

We promised a little while ago that eventually all Skills will transition to a Tick-Based system, just like

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Combat

and

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Thieving

currently are.

The benefits of Tick-Based Skills means you can progress through a Skill at an identical rate online as you can offline. It also means development of skills is a lot easier for us because we do not need to manage two separate code bases for online and offline functionality.

Tick-Based Skills also provide the benefit of

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Mastery

bonuses applying at the exact time you level up, meaning you do not need to log in to the game to activate Mastery bonuses.

This update transitions two Skills to the new Tick-Based System:

  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Firemaking
  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Mining

The transition to Tick-Based also means the Controlled Heat & Perfect Swing Potions now work offline!

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Mining

also received a minor QoL update in the process:

  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Mining     nodes now passively regenerate 1 HP every 10 seconds.
  • Depleting a node will still act the same as before and restore it to full HP after a set time period.

A lot of reported

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Mining

bugs were also rectified in this transition. We will detail those below in the Bug Fix change list.

Offline Time Cap Increase

Now that the game is finally complete, and we have a total of 23 Skills for you to train, I was now able to look at the whole picture and see what changes would benefit the player the most.

The Offline Time Cap of 12 hours is reasonable, up until a certain point. I solely believe that as more content is added to the game, this time cap should gradually increase alongside it.

The Offline Time Cap has been increased to 18 hours for all players.

Now, this does not mean every content update will come with an increase. It simply means that it is an area I consider upon updating the game. Nothing is always set in stone, and I’m always listening to feedback around to game in areas like this.

New Farming Plant Option (QoL)

The addition of Passive

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Cooking

and utilisation of multiple

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Farming

ingredients made it clear that

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Farming

needed a slight adjustment to help with your crop management. This update comes equipped with a new “Plant All Selected”

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Farming

option.

You can now assign any seed to a plot in the respective seed category, and the game will plant that seed in that plot when you press this button.

This means you are now able to grow many different crops at the same time with the click of a single button.

The new planting option is unlocked for everyone, there is no shop upgrade required to activate it.

Looting QoL

This is one of the most discussed and suggested changes Melvor Idle has ever seen. I don’t think there is a day that goes by where a suggestion to do something about the Looting mechanic, especially for late game players.

As the development of the game progressed, and the content you faced became harder, it became clear that the absolute requirement to have the Amulet of Looting equipped for your grinds was not a good mechanic to have.

In general, it is okay to use it for part of the game, but not for everything you face after acquiring it.

These changes aim to make Looting a bit better for all players, and also open up an Amulet slot for late game players taking on harder content.

  • Running from Combat will now automatically loot everything in the Loot container. No more accidental lost loot.
  • Loot Container Stacking Shop Upgrade - Unlocks the ability for all items to Stack within the Loot Container.
  • Increased the Loot Container to 100 slots, up from 16. This should allow for a majority of items to stay inside the loot container with the stacking shop upgrade unlocked.

These 3 changes when combined should provide a much better looting experience for all.

New Melvor Idle Logo & Branding

As you have already noticed, Melvor Idle has a brand new logo!

This is something I have always wanted to explore, and now with 1.0 just around the corner, it was the perfect time to get it done.

I am absolutely in love with how the logo turned out, and I believe it really shows the personality Melvor Idle has to offer.

Alongside the new logo, I have many new assets and artwork to use on various platforms to keep everything consistent and in line with the game’s design principles.

Localisation

Important Note: Localisation will not be activated until 1.0 is officially released on November 18.

Melvor Idle will now be localised in the following 13 different languages:

  • English
  • French
  • Italian
  • German
  • Spanish
  • Portuguese
  • Brazilian Portuguese
  • Russian
  • Turkish
  • Traditional Chinese
  • Simplified Chinese
  • Korean
  • Japanese

This will hopefully open up the game to many new players around the world, and will allow for more people to enjoy the game in their native language.

Every update, including changelogs and store pages, will be localised in the same 13 languages.

Other Changes

Here is a list of other new things and changes that did not fit in the above categories.

New

  • Equipment that provides bonuses based on other items being equipped now have colour matching borders around them to indicate that the bonus is active
  • The effects of a monster being Afflicted during the
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing

  • If you missed it above, the Controlled Heat & Perfect Swing Potions now work Offline.

Changes

  • Increased the quantity of Bones from Bone Offering from 2 to 3.
  • Increased the quantity of Holy Dust from Blessed Offering from 2 to 3.
