V0.06

Alpha v0.06 (28th September 2019)

Welcome to the next major update for Melvor Idle! This update brings along a couple of new skills for you to train, as well as some other additions and changes throughout the game.

The next update, Alpha v0.07, will focus more on balance and content for the current skills in the game.

Let's take a look at what has been added into the game.

Thieving

Thieving is a simple, yet helpful skill to train in terms of resource production.

Your task is to pickpocket various NPCs to acquire gold and other related items to that NPC. But be careful! If you are caught, you will be stunned and also injured slightly, so keep an eye on your HP. This skill is idle, as long as you don't die. If you are stunned, you will resume training after a few seconds.

Your Thieving level and mastery level play into the success rate.

Farming

Farming is the first 'Offline' skill added to Melvor Idle. Currently in its early stages, you have the ability to acquire seeds from various skills, which can then be planted to grow into something great! Your seeds are able to grow while offline. This means you can come back to the game after some time to see what has grown!

Compost is also added alongside this skill. The base success rate of plants growing is 50%, which each compost bucket adding an extra 7.5% to the success rate. Compost can be purchased from the shop.

New Features

[NEW] Silver and Gold Trimmed Armour can now be created by Upgrading their respective base Armour using Silver/Gold bars. The trimmed version of Armour comes with increased stats to assist in combat.
