Alpha v0.20 - (11th June 2021)
Summoning
Introduction
Summoning is one of the largest and most in-depth Skills to have been released to date. It plays a large role in the world of Melvor, cementing its dark and rich history waiting to be uncovered by you.
This Skill requires you to utilize almost every single other Skill in the game in order to progress and unlock more content. As you continue to level up, you will unlock more powerful and unique benefits to give you that extra edge throughout the game.
Below outlines the basic mechanics of the Skill, and also provides an insight in what to expect from Summoning.
Familiars
Discovering the existence of Summoning has provided you with the knowledge of a dark magic only told in tales.
You are given the ability to equip not only one, but TWO Familiars to aid you in your journey throughout Melvor.
There is a selection of 20 different Familiars, each one providing you with a unique passive bonus. They also use charges (just like Ranged Ammo), and are consumed every time and action is taken relating to the passive of your Familiar.
However, great power like this must be earned, and is only given to those who take the time to learn about the Familiar's respective Mark.
Combat Familiars
Half of the Familiars are classed as "Combat Familiars" and provide general benefits to assist within Combat.
On top of this, Combat Familiars also have the ability to attack enemies. They attack every 3 seconds, and have a pre-defined Max Hit (which is visible during Combat). Their accuracy/chance to hit is the same as yours.
And no, they cannot be hit or attacked by the Enemy :)
Marks
Hidden throughout the world of Melvor are the secrets that contain the true power of Summoning, granting the dark magic to those who discover them.
Upon discovering a Mark, you will be able to harness its power by creating Summoning Tablets based on respective Familiars, allowing you to utilize their benefits on your adventure.
These Marks can be further researched and leveled up to unlock even greater power relating to your Familiar in the form of Synergies.
If you happen to have the respective Familiar equipped while searching for further Marks, then the drop rate of the Marks will be doubled.
For those wondering - leveling up all the Marks to the maximum Level (4) is required for 100% completion. This is due to a new Pet that is being introduced (named Mark) that is unlocked once you achieve this goal.
Synergies
Tales tell of an ancient bond that can be formed between two different Familiars. Although this has never been witnessed, it takes true knowledge to be able to achieve such a thing.
By leveling up your Marks, you will unlock Synergies between Familiars that grants an extra unique passive that is active as long as both Familiars are equipped. These passives are unique in what they provide, and can assist greatly during your training.
Synergies are unlocked when their respective Mark levels meet the requirements. Higher level Marks unlock higher tier Synergies.
There are roughly 90 Synergies to unlock and discover.
To make it easier for you, there is also an integrated Synergy Search function within the game that allows you to search for any unlocked Synergy with ease. This search functionality also allows you to equip this Synergy directly from the search results.
Shards
Shards are the core ingredient for Summoning Tablet creation, and can be obtained only from the Shop at a cost of GP.
All Summoning Tablets use a variety of Shards in their creation, and there are 6 different coloured Shards to utilize.
Tablet Creation
Tablet Creation is very similar to all other crafting related Skills in the game.
However, Summoning adds another element to this process in the form of "Alternate Recipes". You will find that many of the Summoning Tablets you can create have multiple recipes to select from. Some even have up to 20 different recipes!
The quantity of items required within the recipes are weighted against the base sale price of the item.
There is a recipe for every stage of the game you're at, but not all of them will be efficient.
Leveling the Skill
As is the theme of this Skill, leveling it is a little bit different than all the others.
There are two ways to earn Skill XP:
- Creating Summoning Tablets
- Using Tablet charges, by equipping the Familiar and using them in the game
The Summoning Skill XP you earn while using charges is weighted against the interval of your action, as well as the Summoning Level required to unlock that Familiar. Generally this means that using a high level Summoning will give you more XP.
NOTE: Mastery XP can only be earned via Summoning Tablet Creation.
New Items and Content
With the introduction of a new Skill, there is also new items and content that come along with it. This includes:
- Four new equippable items in the
Slayer Shop to assist with Summoning
- Two new
Agility Obstacles to also assist with Summoning
- Yet another new
Herblore Potion for (you guessed it) Summoning
- And of course, we also have the
Summoning Skillcape and the Summoning Mastery Token
Woodcutting Changes
Woodcutting has been causing some serious balance issues for the game, as well as any new content planning to be added. Specifically, it is the
Multi-Tree upgrade you can purchase from the Shop that is causing these issues.
Multi-Tree allowed you to cut two trees simultaneously. This means each tree was running on its own timer and was rolling rare items for each of these actions. The result of this "double action" meant Woodcutting was always the go-to Skill for any rare items such as
Mysterious Stones, Pets (like
Ty, and future global Pets),
Signet Ring Half (a), and was also the go-to for the
Summoning content during testing (gaining upwards of 2,000,000 XP/hr).
The upgrade was one of the very first Shop items you could buy in the very early days of Melvor Idle (when there were only 5 Skills in total). It has stuck around since, and I'm actually surprised it lasted this long. The fact that no similar mechanics exist in other Skills should provide some evidence as to how I feel about this kind of mechanic in general.
Instead of leaving it as is and balancing around it or applying exceptions to Woodcutting only for current and future content, now was the right time to adjust the mechanics and bring the Skill back in line with the general feel of the game. However, I have done this in a way that retains the original purpose of the
Multi-Tree Upgrade.
Summarized Changes to Woodcutting
Multi-Tree is now being combined into one single action.
- Your action's interval is determined by the highest interval out of both trees you are cutting.
- The XP you earn is weighted against the interval stated above. This means XP rates have not actually changed, and are staying the same.
- Logs are provided in the same way XP is. However, the amount is rounded down as it is not possible to receive half of an item in this game.
- Rare Items in the game roll on a per action basis. Combining
Multi-Tree into a single action means you will only be provided with one roll per action, even though you're cutting two trees.
- A complete visual representation on exactly what quantity of Items and XP you are receiving per action has been added.
Rare Item Drop Rates
In the initial Announcement, I mentioned drop rates for rare items were not changing. After testing this change on the Test Server for the last few weeks, and gathering data and feedback from players, I have decided to adjust drop rates for some rare items. At the end of the day, it was only fair that the entire game benefits off of a change like this.
Switching Woodcutting to a single action now allows me to buff global rare items without worrying about further snowballing the effects of the old
Multi-Tree upgrade.
- Increased global drop rate for
Signet Ring Half (a) to [math]\displaystyle{ \frac{Level Req}{16,500,000} }[/math], up from [math]\displaystyle{ \frac{Level Req}{19,800,000} }[/math].
- Increased global drop rate for all
Mastery Tokens to [math]\displaystyle{ \dfrac{1}{\dfrac{18,500}{Milestones Unlocked}} }[/math] up from [math]\displaystyle{ \dfrac{1}{\dfrac{20,000}{Milestones Unlocked}} }[/math]
- Increased global drop rate for
Mysterious Stones to 0.025% per action, up from 0.015%.
Important Combat Adjustments
For those who may or may not know, there is a mechanic in the game where Players and Enemies can deal extra damage to one another depending on an existing status effect (like being Stunned).
There was a lot of confusion around the consistency with this mechanic, and how it should actually work. With this update, we have finalised the general mechanics around these status effects.
When the enemy inflicts one of the below status effects on you, a very noticeable popup will briefly display to let you know. This notification can also be disabled in Settings.
It is very important that you read what they do, as you may die unexpectedly if you do not.
- Stunned/Frozen - The Enemy deals 30% extra Damage while you are stunned
- Sleep - The Enemy deals 20% extra Damage while you are sleeping
Combat Triangle Changes
The Combat Triangle for all gamemodes has received some minor adjustments to the damage values. Below are the changes.
Player Style | Game Mode | VS |

Artisan Skill UI Updates
This update includes the start of the transition to a more clear and consistent UI throughout the game.
Starting with most Artisan Skills ( Smithing,
Fletching,
Crafting,
Runecrafting,
Herblore &
Summoning), the UI will be moved to an icon-based layout that will provide all necessary information you seek.
Included in these UI changes is the ability to see your Preservation & Item Doubling chances, as well as how much Skill XP, Mastery XP and Mastery Pool XP you will earn for that action.
These changes will feed into the rest of the game in some way or another.
Please note that Skills will still retain their unique design. I am simply referring to the icon and image usage when talking about transitioning this to the rest of the game.
