V0.15

Alpha v0.15 - "Return of the Gods" (16th May 2020)

Welcome to the next Major Update for Melvor Idle! Thank you so much for your patience on this one. This update is one of the largest I have released to date in terms of content. Please be sure to read the full changelog so you are aware of what has changed!

Preface

Firstly, I'd like to provide a note about this update. Although I'm the one that developed it, pretty much all of the content and lore was planned and created by Prat. For those of you who don't know him - Prat generally provides a lot of assistance with balance, content ideas, number crunching and other random things around the game. He's my go-to person to bounce random ideas off that eventuate into content. He spent a very long time planning this update, so please pass on all thanks and credit to him for his hard work. Let's see what has been added!

The God Dungeons

With the defeat of Malcs, the Guardian of Melvor, the seal that once locked away the Gods fades with him. The Gods now prepare for their return to the world and for their continuation of war. It is up to you to stop them before they destroy it.

Welcome to the God Dungeons, there are 4 Gods to defeat within their respective dungeons - Aeris, Glacia, Terran & Ragnar. These dungeons are very dangerous, and should only be attempted by the prepared and willing. Highly Recommended stats: 85+ All

Combats

, and yes you will need all 3 styles to complete them all (or suffer). Do not try to complete them without sufficient Damage Reduction, you will die.

Information:

• You will find 4 new endgame dungeons to complete. These are split up in 5 floors with increasing monster difficulty as you progress.
• These dungeons are different to your standard dungeon. Each monster kill drops elemental shards which can be collected and combined to create respective dungeon chests - Air, Water, Earth & Fire (you can collect shards and leave without completing the dungeon).
• Each dungeon follows the same logic, The Guards protect the first floor, The Monsters on the 2nd, The Elemental Golems on the 3rd, the God Guardians on the 4th and lastly the God on the 5th.
• The monsters you face all have a unique, special attack of some form. Be sure to note what they do, it will save your life.

Each God inherits all special attacks from the previous monsters you fought, as well as possessing a strong, powerful special attack unique to them. Defeating a God rewards the player with their respective God Scroll. Defeating a God Dungeon for the first time also unlocks a new skills upgrade in the shop. Be sure to look for this!

Each God Scroll contains the powerful rewards, which the player has a chance to receive. The player is guaranteed to gain one of the following items from the scroll:

1. A piece from the new God Armour sets (sets include gloves and boots).
2. One of the new Godswords, obtainable from the respective scroll. There's a unique Godsword for each God.
3. Some scrolls contain unique, powerful God Weapons such as a bow, battleaxe, staff or even a special shield.
4. A Bank Slot Token. Claim for a free bank slot (does not increase price of your bank slot costs).

All new God Equipment requires Level 85 in their respective levels to equip. The dungeon chests acquires by upgrading shards give you a chance at obtaining rare, unique dungeon rings and amulets. The rings provide increased combat stats, and each amulet contains a powerful, unique passive effect while equipped.

Note from Prat: These dungeons were made to be challenging and shouldn't be idle-able (maybe possible with god armour and pots). These dungeons should only be attempted by late-game players who have:

Dungeon Equipment Swapping

, best-in-slot gear for all 3 combats, lots of food, prayer points and potions.
Difficulty: I consider the

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Volcanic Cave

challenging, but not overly difficult. Using rough estimates, I believe the easiest God Dungeon is ~6x more difficult than

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Volcanic

, they are pretty tough.

Ranged Content Update

Alongside the inclusion of the God Dungeons, it was a perfect time to address an area of

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Combat

that was lacking quite a bit -

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Ranged

.

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Ranged

has been turned upside down and re-evaluated from the ground up. I am talking new weapons, new armour types, lots of damage, lots of choice.

Here is what has been included in this update:

• Crossbows for each tier of metal, plus
  Error creating thumbnail: File missing
  Ancient, which use new Gem-Tipped Bolts as ammo.
• Throwing Knives for each tier of metal, plus Ancient.
• Javelins for each tier of metal, plus Ancient.
• Dragonhide Shields.
• Ancient Dragonhide Armour.
• Error creating thumbnail: File missing
  Ranged Armour can now be upgraded just like regular
  Error creating thumbnail: File missing
  Melee Armour.
• Adjusted values for Shortbow & Longbow stats.
• New pieces of equipment that will assist with
  Error creating thumbnail: File missing
  Ranged.

There's a lot of choice here, and it will seem pretty overwhelming at first. But I can tell you now that

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Ranged

packs a pretty decent punch. However, to be able to reach those high DPS numbers, you will need the skill levels and resources to be able to do so. Be sure to check out everything you can make within

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Smithing

,

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Crafting

and

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Fletching

!

Player Special Attacks Rework

This update also includes a redesigned special attack system for Players! I have removed the silly 2 minute special attack timer, and that ridiculous box in the combat screen. This system in general simply did not suit the style of the game. Special attacks are now 100% idle. You do not need to adjust any settings at all! Weapons that possess a special attack will display so within the bank screen. The new description of the special attacks will now show a % chance. This is the chance a weapon has to activate its special attack during combat. You will notice your attack speed bar turn yellow, and the text display the name of the special attack when it is going to be used. Simply as that! There is also a little sword icon next to your attack speed that displays if there is a weapon with a special attack equipped. If you hover over this, or click it, it will display the special attack information.

Max Skillcape

Short and sweet, but the Max Skillcape has been introduced! This Skillcape is unlocked when you reach Level 99 in every single skill in the game. It inherits ALL skillcape perks. This thing is a beast.
