Having progressed through {{TotH}} combat will make  {{AoD|Atlas of Discovery}} combat significantly easier. This is due to the huge damage increase in the {{Synergy|Spectre|Spider}} compared to {{Synergy|Tortoise|Dragon}}, the summon set from {{ZoneIcon|Necromancers Palace}} and the endgame weapons from {{ZoneIcon|Golden Cloud Mountains}}.
Having progressed through {{TotH}} [[Combat_Guide/Throne_of_the_Herald|Throne of the Herald]] and {{AoD|Atlas of Discovery}} [[Combat_Guide/Atlas_of_Discovery|Atlas of discovery]] combat will make {{ItA}} [[Into the Abyss Expansion|Into the Abyss]] significantly easier. This is due to {{TotH}} powerful starting potions from {{Skill|Herblore}}, {{Skill|Agility}} bonuses, {{Skill|Astrology}} bonuses and {{Skill|Summoning}} familiars. {{AoD}} also has many benefits such as the {{Skill|Cartography|notext=true}} [[Cartography#All_Points_of_Interest/Point's of interest|Point's of interest]] added which give many useful combat buffs, some of the {{Icon|Unholy Prayers|nolink=true|notext=true}} [[Unholy_Prayers#Unholy_Items|Unholy Items]] can be useful too.


==={{Skill|Summoning|notext=true|nolink=true}} Summoning===
''Make sure to run in [[Scripting_and_Extensions/Combat_Simulator|Combat Simulator]] to find out what to use! These are just recommendations.''


There are two main summoning synergies to use for {{Icon|Barrier}} focused combat:
==={{Icon|Combat|notext=true|nolink=true}} Starting Gear===
* {{TotH}} {{SkillReq|Summoning|115}} {{Synergy|Spectre|Spider}} for huge summoning max hit damage
* {{SkillReq|Summoning|90}} {{Synergy|Tortoise|Dragon}} if you haven't unlocked the above synergy


==={{Icon|Combat|notext=true|nolink=true}} Gear===
Recommended gear to get before starting:


===={{Melvor}} Base Game====
===={{Melvor}} Base Game====


Collect the first three god sets from: {{ZoneIcon|Air God Dungeon}}, {{ZoneIcon|Water God Dungeon}} and {{ZoneIcon|Earth God Dungeon}}. Collecting the fire god set from {{ZoneIcon|Fire God Dungeon}} will also be helpful but not strictly required. It is only for endgame clear speed improvement when you have enough damage reduction already.
*{{ItemIcon|Scaled Shield}}
*{{ItemIcon|Shield of Ranged Power}}


===={{TotH}} Throne of the Herald====
===={{TotH}} Throne of the Herald====


Ensure you have the following armour from {{ZoneIcon|Necromancers Palace}}. This will be BIS save for a few items near the end of {{AoD|Atlas of Discovery}}:
*{{ItemIcon|Blazing Helmet}}
* {{ItemIcon|Hood of Shade Summon}}
*{{ItemIcon|Perfect Sight Legs}}
* {{ItemIcon|Amulet of Curse Totem Summon}}
*{{ItemIcon|Superior Max Skillcape}}
* {{ItemIcon|Gloves of Greater Shade Summon}}

*{{ItemIcon|Eradicating Gloves (m)}}
*{{ItemIcon|Ring of Malice (m)}}
*{{ItemIcon|Combination Fury Gem}}
*{{ItemIcon|Agile Gem}}
*{{ItemIcon|Elusive Boots}}


Collect the three weapons from {{ZoneIcon|Golden Cloud Mountains}} as these are the BIS for most {{AoD|Atlas of Discovery}} encounters:
==={{Skill|Summoning|notext=true|nolink=true}} Summoning===
* {{ItemIcon|Agile Wings Rapier}}
* {{ItemIcon|Feather Storm Crossbow}}
* {{ItemIcon|Slicing Maelstrom Wand}}


Acquiring the {{ItemIcon|Superior Max Skillcape}} will also be helpful.
There are a few useful summoning synergies to have before you get [[Summoning#Abyssal|Abyssal Familiars]]:
* {{TotH}} {{Synergy|Fox|Spider}} (worse {{Melvor}} {{Synergy|Centaur|Dragon}})
* {{TotH}} {{Synergy|Siren|Lightning Spirit}}
* {{TotH}} {{Synergy|Occultist|Lightning Spirit}}


==={{Skill|Herblore|notext=true|nolink=true}} Herblore===
==={{Skill|Herblore|notext=true|nolink=true}} Herblore===


* {{ItemIcon|Diamond Luck Potion IV}} is BIS if you haven't built {{TotH}} {{AgilityIcon|Waterfall Crossing}} yet
* {{TotH}} {{ItemIcon|Critical Strike Potion IV}} +20% crit chance
* {{ItemIcon|Melee Strength Potion IV|notext=true}}{{ItemIcon|Ranged Strength Potion IV|notext=true}}{{ItemIcon|Magic Damage Potion IV|notext=true}} Max Hit potions can be a solid and reliable source of increased damage
* {{ItA}} {{ItemIcon|Shadeveil Potion IV}} +20% crit chance and +50% chance to apply Shadeveil when critically hitting with an attack
* {{ItemIcon|Damage Reduction Potion IV}} is incredibly useful for meeting DR requirements
* {{TotH}} {{ItemIcon|Penetration Potion IV}} are potentially the highest amount of raw dps that can be gained from a potion and, once unlocked, can be used as the default combat potion for all Expansion Combat as soon as {{ItemIcon|Ectoplasm}} is easily farmed
* {{TotH}} {{ItemIcon|Critical Strike Potion IV}} are about equal to Penetration Potions in most situations, but require a material that is easier to obtain without doing difficult combat


==={{Icon|Prayer|notext=true|nolink=true}} Prayers===

''Make sure to run in [[Scripting_and_Extensions/Combat_Simulator|Combat Simulator]] to find out what to use! These are just recommendations.''
Enhancements are very useful for both non-combat skilling and combat. They are obtained from [[Strongholds]]. Before starting it is recommended that you acquire all four {{Melvor}} melvor realm enhancements:

===Early Game Into the Abyss===


==Atlas of Discovery Combat==
After collecting all suggested gear from the [[#Gear|Gear]] section, proceed to start combat. Immediate goals are to begin gathering {{Icon|Abyssal Damage}} resistant gear. Remember that leveling all skills simultaneously is a lot more important in {{ItA}} [[Into the Abyss Expansion|Into the Abyss]] than base game. It is recommended that other abyssal skills are leveled a bit before starting combat to get their AXP bonuses from the respective [[Skill Tree|Skill trees]]: {{Skill|Astrology}}, {{Skill|Agility}}, {{Skill|Township}} and {{Skill|Firemaking}}.


===Early Game Atlas of Discovery===
Items that are acquired from other skills will be omitted in the interest of verbosity.


After collecting the first three god sets from: {{ZoneIcon|Air God Dungeon}}, {{ZoneIcon|Water God Dungeon}} and {{ZoneIcon|Earth God Dungeon}} the player will be well equipped to start combat. Immediate goals are to begin gathering {{Icon|Barrier}} damaging equipment. The first gear the player will get is actually from the {{POIIcon|Ancient Market}} in {{Skill|Archaeology}}. Remember {{Skill|Cartography}} and {{Skill|Archaeology}} are crucial to progressing {{AoD}} [[Atlas of Discovery Expansion|Atlas Of Discovery]] combat.

 Into the Abyss guide to combat. For frequently asked questions (FAQ), see Into the Abyss FAQ.

Introduction

The following guide takes the player through the combat of the

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Into the Abyss Expansion with as little effort as possible. This guide is targeted at people who have either completed or nearly completed the base game. Completion of at least the Air God Dungeon is recommended to follow the largest portion of this guide.

Frequent skill swapping is a lot more important than in Melvor Logo.svg base game, so if you are struggling to progress try leveling some non-combat skills first.

Skill Trees are also extremely important, make sure you are acquiring the buffs as those points come in to make progression significantly faster.

This Guide is NOT designed with the Ancient Relics Game Mode in mind. Players looking for more information about that Game Mode should visit the Ancient Relics Guide.

A simplistic order for completing combat:

How Into the Abyss affects Combat

 Reversed Combat Triangle

In the Abyssal Realm, the direction of the combat triangle is reversed. Note that if your AR is reduced by the Abyssal Intimidation passive, the combat triangle is applied last.

 Abyssal Damage

Abyssal Damage is dealt by all monsters in the

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Into the Abyss Expansion, making Damage Reduction useless. Abyssal Resistance is the stat required to reduce damage by these enemies.

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
 Combat Simulator

Because the combat mechanics in this expansion are rather complex, and minor changes in enemy, equipment and player stats can make specific items better or worse it is always recommended to use the Combat Simulator to verify how to get the most kills per hour or drops per hour.

Stats and Buffs

Having progressed through Throne of the Herald and Atlas of discovery combat will make
