Game Update - v1.3.1 (30th October 2024)

This update focuses on the Into the Abyss expansion with a new Realm Select, QoL and more.

99% of the below relates to the Into the Abyss Expansion. Notes that affect the whole game will be marked as [All].

New

  • Implemented a new Realm Select. This appears in the sidebar instead of within Skills themselves.
  • Added an “Enter/Leave Abyssal Realm” option in the Sidebar, allowing you to easily enter/exit the Abyssal Realm. It will show as locked if not available.
  • Added “Select Realm” sidebar menu item that will appear if more than 2 visible Realms are available, allowing you to change Realms from here.
  • Skills with category selection (Like Artisan Skills) will now only display categories from the Realm you are currently in.
  • Combat will now only show Categories that contain at least 1 area from the Realm you are currently in.
  • Skills in the sidebar will now have a slightly transparent look if they contain no content for the Realm you are currently in.
  • The Abyssal Realm now applies a special theme to the Sidebar when inside.
  • Added a new Setting to re-enable the Legacy Realm selection for those who prefer that over the new one.
  • Added a Pet hint text to Area Info for Strongholds mentioning that it only drops from Superior Tier.
  • [All] Added Bank Filters via a new icon next to the Bank Tab summary. This allows you to show/hide items based on some predefined filters. Those with Into the Abyss will see more filters than those who don’t own it.
  • [All] Added combination runes setting to the My Runes page in Combat.
  • [All] Add colour coding of requirements to Upgrade Item popup.

New Settings

  • "Use Legacy Realm Selection" - Disabled by default - Hides the new Sidebar Realm Selection options and enables the old Realm Selection in all Skills.
  • "Always show Legacy Realm Selection in Agility" - Enabled by default - Will enable the legacy Realm Selection in Agility only, allowing you to quickly switch back and forth between Realms within the Skill without affecting the other Skills.
  • "Set Skill in Sidebar to slightly transparent if there is no content for the current Realm (New Realm select only)." - Enabled by default - Skills will show as transparent in the Sidebar if they have no content for the current Realm. Only works if using the new Realm Selection.

General Changes & Balance

  • Abyssal Combat Areas are now called Abyssal Battlegrounds. Modifier descriptions have also been updated for the new name.
  • Abyssal Slayer Areas are now called Abyssal Slayer Regions. Modifier descriptions have also been updated for the new name.
  • Changing Realms will now change the Realm for ALL Skills (unless using the Legacy Realm selection setting).
  • Added Witherlyme Seed drop to Withering Ruins Thieving area as a unique area drop
  • Added Whispertallow Seed drop to Silent Crypt Thieving area as a unique area drop
  • Added Echosnap Seed drop to Void Vaults Thieving area as a unique area drop
  • Increased Void Essence drop quantity in Void Vaults Thieving area to 2, up from 1.
  • Shadow Tormentor now drops up to 10 Gloomite Throwing Knives, down from 30
  • Abyssal Bat now drops up to 10 Abyssium Throwing Knives, down from 15.
  • Abyssal Smithing now creates a base quantity of 2 Throwing Knives, down from 4.
  • [All] Runecrafting now displays a separate section for Rune cost reduction in its source tooltip.

Recipe Costs

  • Removed one Item from the recipe cost of most Rings & Amulets in Crafting
  • Reduced the quantity required of Rings & Amulets required for upgraded version (II).
  • Removed the Ring/Amulet item requirement for Obzurian Rings & Amulets in Crafting.
  • Removed the Brumite Bar cost for Gloomite Gear in Smithing.
  • Removed the Gloomite Bar cost for Witherite Gear in Smithing.
  • Halved the Witherite Bar cost quantity for Netherite Gear in Smithing.

Weapon Balance

  • Reduced all Abyssal Throwing Knife special attack chances down to 25%, from 50%.
  • Reduced all Abyssal Throwing Knife Ranged Strength Bonuses by 25%
  • Increased Ranged Strength Bonus of all Abyssal Crossbows by 10%
  • Increased Ranged Strength Bonus for all Abyssal Arrows by 5%

  • Increased Special Attack chance of all Abyssal Smithable Swords (not 2H) by 15%
  • Increased Magic Damage Bonus of all Abyssal Wands by 3%
  • Increased Magic Damage Bonus of all Abyssal Staves by 4%

XP Balancing

We’ve reworked the early to mid-game XP rates for Into the Abyss, allowing progression in the early stages to be a lot faster for Non-Combat Skills. This will allow you to get straight into ItA content without the long early-game waits.

Summary: All the new XP values are higher than before the update.

Game Update - v1.3 (13th June 2024)

Upcoming v1.3 Changelog + "Need to knows"

The v1.3 Major Update is less than 24 hours away, so I thought I'd use the time to provide the changelog, as well as some "need to knows" so we're all on the same page.

Upcoming v1.3 Changelog + "Need to knows" The v1.3 Major Update is less than 24 hours away (as of the time of writing this post), so I thought I'd use the time to provide the changelog, as well as some "need to knows" so we're all on the same page.

Need to Knows

There's a few things to consider when the v1.3 update drops.

v1.3 isn't out yet

UPDATE: If you are reading this news announcement now - v1.3 has officially been released on all platforms!

Thought I'd just mention this first, but as of the time of writing this, v1.3 is not out yet. This is just a "heads up" announcement and the changelog posted in advance.

You can check the character select screen for the version number (If you can't see it then its probably not released yet).

Your Mods will break

Due to the reworks of many fundamental systems in v1.3, your Mods will most definitely break. A few things to take note when the update drops:

  • Double check your mods and ensure they are up to date.
  • Make a local copy of your save if you wish to try and load it with mods. The game generally catches game-breaking bugs before anything happens to the save though (Better to be safe than sorry).
  • Play without mods until they are updated (Note that this results in lost Mod save data if a save is loaded without the Mod).

The good news about this is that some of the more promiment mods will be ready to go with an update as the developers have had access to the update prior to launch.

Please respect the time and effort of Mod developers as they are always working in their spare time to provide mods for you to use! Understand that they probably already know their mod is broken, and are working on a fix.

Into the Abyss is not released at the same time as v1.3

We always release the Major Update a few days before the official release of the Expansions. This allows us to fix potential critical bugs or issues leading up to the release.

Exact time Into the Abyss releases will be posted on socials closer to the date.

v1.3 Changelog

Here is the changelog for the v1.3 update.

Important Preface

  • This update adds new content required for Completion to the base game. This means Completion capes cannot be equipped until Completion is met again.
  • You are provided with a free death on your first load. This means if you are idling Combat/Thieving offline and die due to some potential changes (Like completion cape unequipping), you will not lose any items.
  • Changelog isn't final as we continue fixing some bugs leading up to release.

Strongholds

  • Added 4 new Strongholds to the game under a new “Strongholds” Combat category
  • Added new damage type to the game - Pure Damage - used by Monsters in the Stronghold

Equipment Slots

  • Added 3 new Equipment Slots - Enhancement slots. Used by Enhancements obtained from Strongholds
  • Equipment slots are now moddable - Mods can now add custom equipment slots.

New Items

  • Added 3 new Standard Enhancements to each Stronghold
  • Added 3 new Augmented Enhancements to each Stronghold
  • Added 1 new Superior Enhancement to each Stronghold

Quality of Life Additions

  • Added a breakdown of modifier sources for various things like XP, Mastery XP, interval, Preservation, Doubling, Thieving Stealth. This information is contained in the tooltip of the relevant bonus.
  • Added the ability to search for Agility Obstacles. Searching for any word in a positive modifier will highlight its location.
  • You can now view the Monster list of any Dungeon / Stronghold
  • Added Area Info to Combat Areas which displays information about the Combat Triangle, and also # of completions and whether you have the Pet or not.
  • Offline Progress calculation now displays its progress.
  • Added some more Combat Stats to the Combat Stats area.
  • Fishing Areas now display the Interval and XP provided by the Fish without needing to select it first.
  • You can now Export / Download / Create Shareable URL of your current save from the top-right dropdown menu.
  • The Bank Search now supports queries such as “Throne of the Herald” or “toth” which will only show items from that expansion.
  • Weapons now display their damage type icon in the Bank.

Item Changes

  • Fighter Amulet - Changed effect - While you are using Melee attack type: Enemies are Stunned for 1 Attack turn when they deal damage greater than 30% of your maximum hitpoints
  • Sailor's Top now provides -100% Fishing Special Chance
  • [AoD] Merman Pendant has now been split into two pieces which need to be upgraded to acquire the Amulet itself. Piece 1 has replaced the original Merman Pendant drop at the Melantis Dig Site, Piece 2 can be found as a rare drop from the Merman in the Underwater Ruins Combat Area. If you already have the Pendant then you still keep it and nothing else changed.
  • [AoD] Candelabra (Lit) now only requires 3 Candles, instead of 5.
  • [AoD] Biting Gloves - Nasty Bite Special Attack - Damage now capped at 2K (20K for Adventure). Description also updated.

Monster Changes

  • Wicked Greater Dragon - Confusion Special Attack - now performs an avoidable attack that deals 300 + 5% of your max hit as damage. This special attack can no longer kill you if you are too strong.
  • [TotH] Increased Torvair’s Hitpoints to 19,730, up from 19,500. They are now Combat Level 1,337.

Other Changes

  • Sleep - Adjusted Effect - Characters will now become “Drowsy” after the Sleep effect wears off for 2 of their attack turns. Drowsy increases their attack interval by 10%, and also makes them immune to Sleep.
  • Capped the damage of Burn, Poison and Deadly Poison to a total of 10K damage (100K for Adventure). This damage cap is set prior to resistance calculations (Eg if total damage after modifiers is 15K, it's then capped to 10K, then resistance applied for final value).
  • Total Frostburn total Damage is now capped at 2K (20K for Adventure).
  • Effects that deal damage based on Max or Current HP are now capped at 10K (100K for Adventure). Tooltips/descriptions should mention this detail now as well.
  • Effects that deal damage based on Max or Current HP are now affected by resistance. They used to ignore all resistances for some reason.
  • Confusion Curse - Current HP Damage 3% -> 2%
  • Decay Curse - Changed 3% Max HP Damage to 2.5% Current HP Damage
  • Despair Curse - Changed 3% Max HP Damage & 3% Current HP Damage to 3% Current HP Damage & +12% Damage Taken
  • [TotH] Fox + Dragon Synergy changed to Enemy takes +100% Burn DOT Damage, changed from Burn applied to the Enemy deal +5% Max HP as extra damage
  • The option to spend Legacy Ticks (an old feature removed 14 months ago) has now been removed from Township. If you wish to keep spending them, a mod will need to bring back the option. However, we can’t confirm if the legacy functionality still works as intended since the rewrites in this major update.
  • Removed double bone drops from Crafting Lesser Relic

Firemaking Changes

  • Firemaking Bonfires now automatically relight using the same Logs it initially started with when depleted. This means you can start a Bonfire with Redwood Logs for its XP bonus, then switch back to Normal Logs to burn, and once the Bonfire depletes it will relight using Redwood Logs. The Bonfire will tell you which logs are used, and the quantity in your Bank.
  • If you run out of Logs for the Bonfire, it will default back to using the Logs you are currently burning.
  • Controlled Heat Potion simply makes regular logs free now.
  • Firemaking “Select Logs” will now always show all logs, instead of only the ones you have in the Bank.

UI Adjustments

  • Slightly updated the Combat UI to make better use of space.
  • Slightly updated some of the Bank UI - like the “Equip Item” panel.
  • Updated Fishing UI to now show more information about the Fish.
  • Updated Artisan Skill UI - Image is now larger and the ingredients required to craft are now always displayed. It also mentioned if there’s alternate recipes.
  • Cooking now only shows the base healing value of food instead of the adjusted value based on current modifiers.
  • Currency values now show decimal places over 1M.

Bug Fixes
  • Fixed a bug where repair costs for
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Township     buildings were factoring the total building count across all Biomes instead of only the Biome it resided in. This unintentionally increased repair costs by 2-3x.

?7668 (6th September 2023)

We want to preface this by saying we are always listening to the community. We have for the last 4 years, and that itself won't change.

We've been reading all the feedback on various platforms since the release of v1.2 and have re-evaluated some of the changes we made to the
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Township Trader boxes.

This update aims to add more Tasks to the base game, bring back Herbs to Herb Boxes, and slightly reduce the amount of Tasks required to obtain T2/3 Boxes (allowing you to skip many more tasks you don't enjoy).

The Task requirements themselves will remain, as it is an important requirement to balance the power of the boxes.

We appreciate the feedback we have received on this matter, and will continue to monitor it over the coming days/weeks.

New Tasks
  • Added 10 new Tasks to the base game, 2 per difficulty up to Elite, increasing the total amount of Tasks available in the base game to 110.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Township Trader Boxes
  • Reminder that there is now a total of 110 tasks in the Base game, up from 100.
  • Tier 2 Boxes now require 85 Task completions out of 110 total Tasks available to you in the Base Game, down from 95 out of 100 available Tasks.
  • Tier 3 Boxes now require 110 Task completions out of 130 total Tasks available to you with Throne of the Herald, down from 115 out of 120 available Tasks.
Herb (Seed) Box

We've heard your feedback regarding Herb boxes and how the new requirements were too harsh for a box of seeds. We're changing this box back to Herbs now that it has the task completion requirements.

  • Herb Boxes now provide Herbs again instead of Seeds, up to 75 per box.
Bug Fixes
  • Fixed an issue where the building repair cost modifiers were not applying correctly during certain seasons, causing 100% reduced repair cost.

?7785 (12th September 2023)

    Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Major Update - Township Rework - v1.1.2 (12th April 2023)

Township Rework

For the full details, please see here (in case I missed anything here): https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1267910/view/3692428039467200814

When loading into the rework, your Town will automatically convert to the new system based on your current
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Township Skill Level.

Your Town will convert BEFORE offline progress calculations begin.

Passive “Town Update” System (Formerly known as Ticks)

  • Township now passively updates every 1 hour, up to a maximum of 24 hours while offline (like the standard offline time)
  • You no longer earn “ticks” to spend.
  • If you had ticks remaining prior to this update, they will be available to use as you please until they reach zero. Now referred to as “Legacy Ticks”.
  • Legacy Ticks have been converted to the new Town Update length of 1 hour. For every 12 ticks you had, you have been granted 1 Legacy Tick.
  • It is not possible to earn more Legacy Ticks.

General Township

  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Population     now defines the XP you gain per Town Update. For example, 100K Population = 100K XP gained.
  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Happiness     now increases your
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Population     by (Happiness)%, and can go over 100%.
  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Education     increases your resource production rates by (Education)%, and can go over 100%
  • The Max Skillcape now requires
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
     Level 99     to purchase and equip.

Health

  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Health     directly affects
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Population    .
  • Your
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    population     (after
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Happiness     bonus) is then multiplied by (Health)%.
  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Health     starts at 100%, and goes down by 1% each Town Update. This cannot go below 20%.
  • Spend
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Potions     or Herbs to increase this back to 100%.

Buildings

  • The Building system has been revamped. You now construct buildings up to a certain quantity until it upgrades.
  • Buildings now have “efficiency” that degrades over time and requires repairs (one button click). A building has a 25% chance to degrade by 1% per Town Update. The efficiency cannot be reduced below 20%.
  • Buildings contained within Biomes are now predefined and are the same for everyone.
  • All building costs and resource generation numbers have completely changed to accommodate for the rework.

New Feature - Seasons

Minor Update - Township Update #1 - v1.1.1 (?4891) (17th Nov 2022)

Hello everyone!

Thank you for your patience with us while we waited for translations to be completed for this update. This is the first of what I assume to be many updates to Township.

This update focuses on UI & Balance. We want to get Township to a point where we are okay with the power it provides, as well as what it looks like before we begin exploring concerns around other mechanics.

If you had concerns around the general mechanics of Township, then this update won't resolve that unfortunately. We are already hard at work on Township Update #2 which focuses on the general mechanics. It might take a bit of time until release as we will be doing a lot of play testing to see how it all feels.

Now, let's get into the patch notes.

Township UI Overhaul

We have updated the
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Township UI as a start of our process to provide you with more clarity and information when navigating the Skill.

New UI Features:

  • Biome selection for Town & Build menus are now vertically aligned on the left, and are populated with Biome icons.
  • Town menu has 3 Tabs - Biomes, Town Information & Show All. These menus provide extra information regarding your Town.
  • Build menu now has a Town resource selector to easily locate specific buildings you may be looking for. Selecting a resource will highlight what Biomes it can be located in, as well as the buildings themselves for easy navigation.
  • Hovering over a building in the Build menu will display an icon next to Biomes where that building can also be constructed.
  • Hovering over a Building in the Town menu will highlight Biomes where it is constructed, as well as display how many are contained inside.
  • Town information panel displays basic information about your Town.
  • Dead Storage now has its own UI element a the top will all other resources and information.
  • The tooltip within
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Population     now displays how much Skill XP you gain per tick.

New Township Features

Resource Capping

  • You can now cap resources to a specified percent value of your maximum storage. This can be done in the Manage Storage menu (Used to be called Yeet Resources).
  • When a resource reaches its cap, it will adjust the colour of the resource amount.
  • Setting a cap on a resource that is already above the existing cap will automatically Yeet the excess on the next Tick.

Change Worship

It is now possible to change your
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Worship without restarting your Town.

Changing your Worship will cause major distress and riots within your Town. Due to this:

  • All of your existing Worship buildings will be destroyed.
  • 50% of your population will die.

Trader Changes

The Trader in its current state was beyond broken. The amount of GPGP that could be earned by Trading various resources was excessive, and it devalued GP entirely.

These changes are designed to allow the Trader to continue providing extra resources for the main game, while also being limited in how much they can actually provide.

Trader GP Value Limit

The Trader is no longer the richest person in the game, carrying billions of GP worth of items as they stop at your Town.

  • There is now a maximum GP Value Limit that can be traded during any visit. This limit is defined by the amount of Trading Posts you have constructed in your Town.
  • Each
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Trading Post     will increase this limit by 500K per building, up to a maximum of 100M per visit.
  • Every time the Trader arrives in your Town, it will increase the GP Limit. There is no maximum threshold for the limit.
  • The GP Limit only affects trading resources from Township to your Bank. It does not affect trading items into your Town for resources.

New Item Trading Requirement

If you wish to Trade a resource out of Township, there is now an added requirement of locating 10,000 of the item first before you can trade for it.

The Trader is not meant to be a bypass for the main game by locating one of any item and then Trading it thereafter.

The UI of the Trader will display items that can and cannot be traded, as well as the remaining quantity required to begin trading it.

Tax Rate Changes

The existing implementation of Tax Rate provided GP to the Player without really needing to "earn" it (Other than increasing population).

These changes will bring Tax Rate in line with how they would actually be implemented into a Town, but also provides you with control over what the Tax Rate should be:

  • The Base Tax rate when starting a Town is now 0%
  • The
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Town Hall     has been reworked:
  • Each Town Hall now provides +0.5% Tax Rate and -0.5% Happiness.
  • No longer provides Building Cost reduction.
  • Tax Rate is capped at 80%.

Adjusted Building Worker Counts

We have adjusted the amount of workers provided for upgraded buildings to help minimise the amount of available workers in the late stages of the Skill.

  • The 3rd and 4th upgrades of any building now has increased worker counts.
  • These buildings now have the same resource per worker generation amount as the 2nd upgrade.

The new Worker counts will allow you to assign Citizens to these buildings to return to the original resource generation values. When all Worker slots are filled, it works out to be a tiny buff in resource generation (Roughly 3-5%).

This will not affect early game Township as the resource generation and worker counts have remained the same.

Other Township Changes

  • Added x25 Build option.
  • Default Trader option is now "Take resources from Township".
  • Dead Storage now decays 1% every 1 hour of Ticks (Used to be 20% every 24 hours).
  • Citizens who die at the age of 100 will decay instantly.
  • Citizens who are over the age of 70 provide 2x more GP than under 70's.
  • Worship now has a 5% Checkpoint. We have moved some of the positive modifiers that are unlocked at the very beginning to this checkpoint.
  • Ragnar Worship - Removed +25% Tax Rate bonus from the "Always Active". The one at the 100% checkpoint still exists.
  • The Trader now trades raw Dragonhide instead of the final product for Clothing.
  • Increased the Town Hall build costs by 4x
  • Increased the Trading Post build cost to 7,500 Stone, 5,000 Bars, 5,000 Planks.
  • Buffed Libraries to provide +1% Education per building, up from 0.25%.
  • Capped "Decreased Township Food Usage" modifier to -80%.
  • Town & Build Biome selections are no longer independent. Selecting a Biome in one menu will update the other one as well.

New Additions

We have a new method of communicating Announcements to players in game. The changelog in game has a new look, and allows me to provide easy updates to everyone across all platforms.

There is also a development roadmap you can view at the top. Stay in the loop with what we're currently working on!

Major Update v1.1 - (18th October 2022)

Introduction

Welcome to the Stage 1 release of the long-awaited Expansion update!

This update includes all of the free content mentioned in previous announcements which include
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Township, Official Cross-Platform Mod Support, and more!

A Special Thanks

Before we get into the release notes, I’d like to put out a massive thank you to those who made this expansion release possible. This was not a one-person achievement, and it was only made possible by a group of amazing people:

  • Prat (Game designer)
  • Coolrox (Developer)
  • Buttchouda (Developer - Official Mod Support)
  • Andrew & Lily (Freelance Artists)
  • Jagex (Localisation, Lore, Marketing material, and support)
  • All Patrons (Testing the expansion since July)

Throne of the Herald

This update does not include any of the Throne of the Herald DLC content (Level 120 Combat & Non-Combat). This will be released on 20 October 2022!

v1.1 Release Notes

IMPORTANT PREFACE

It is incredibly important that you disable and remove every single pre-expansion mod or script you have installed before loading the update.

YOUR GAME WILL NOT LOAD IF A BROKEN MOD IS LOADED. THIS PUTS YOUR SAVES AT RISK.

New Skill -
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Township

A brand new Town Management Simulator built directly into Melvor.

The general goal of this new Skill is to create a Town that becomes a passive resource generating machine in the late game. An ideal Town is one you can ignore at later stages of the game, and using the Trading mechanic is can provide resources to you.

Key Features:

  • Build a Town that will become a passive resource generating machine that will assist with all aspects of the game.
  • Manage resources that your town needs to grow (These are unique to Township and do not require Bank space).
  • 50+ unique buildings to help your Town expand.
  • Keep track of your Citizens and their Health, Happiness, Education and age.
  • Select a Map to build on with unique Biomes to manage.
  • Choose a God to Worship (or none) and receive unique
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Township     bonuses.
  • This is a passive Skill, meaning you can progress without interrupting other Skills.
  • Ability to Trade with your Town by either giving bank materials to it, or collect items from your Town.
  • Integrated Task system with some fantastic rewards for all players at any stage of the game.
  • Brand new Shop items that can be purchased after certain conditions have been met. These unique items will assist with the general game.
  • There’s no time waste with this Skill - You can ignore it and continue to earn Offline time to catch up at any time. Complete this skill at your own pace!

Important Mechanics:

  • Buildings that generate resources require Workers (your population). Each time you Tick, your population will move in to a Job and being that production.
  • Keep your Food production in the positives! As soon as you run out, the Town will begin to die at a high rate every Tick.
  • Pay attention to Biomes and how buildings are affected in them. Some Biomes require consistent resources to upkeep.
  • Don't be afraid to fail and kill your Town a few times. You can start again and give it another go.
It is important to note that this Skill is not designed to be hard focused to the max level. It is designed to be adjusted when needed, and to assist with passive resource and
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
GP generation for the main game. This is not a simple Skill to digest. There is a lot of information to take in with
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Township. Please take it slow, explore the options you have available, and don’t be afraid to restart your Town if something doesn’t go right!

Good Starting Place for Township

When you first enter the Skill, you will be greeted with a Map & Worship selection. You can have a browse here but feel free to leave the options as default and continue.

When you enter the Skill, have a browse of all the menu items and different options made available to you. There is a lot here, so take your time.

When you're ready, head over to the Tasks menu and begin with the Getting Started Guide.

Township in Adventure Mode

Since we announced that
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Township would be unlocked by default in Adventure Mode, plans have unfortunately changed leading up to release.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Township will no longer be unlocked by default in Adventure Mode. The reason behind this change is that
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Township is too powerful of a Skill to have unlocked in the beginning. The amount of bonuses, items, and
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
GP you can obtain from this Skill is substantial so it didn't make sense to leave it unlocked at the start of Adventure Mode.

We apologize if you were looking forward to jumping in straight away in Adventure Mode.

Official Cross-Platform Mod Support

Melvor Idle now has Official Mod support which is available on all platforms of the game! This is made possible by utilizing Mod.IO to host and manage Mods for the game.

If you wish to use this feature, be sure to enable it in the Settings page!

In-Game Mod Browser:

  • Explore available Mods within the game with a handy browser tool.
  • Search, filter and find Mods that spark your interest.
  • Subscribe and install mods which synchronize on all Platforms using your Cloud account.
  • View more information about how to create Mods from the handy guides found within the browser.

Modding API

We have worked hard to make modding for Melvor Idle easier by providing an API that you can use to take control of the entire game as you please.

Key features:

  • Add game objects, such as skills, items, recipes, combat and slayer areas, custom gamemodes, and much more.
  • Hooking into the game life cycle for more control over when your mod performs actions.
  • Define player-configurable settings for your mod.
  • Storing and retrieving free-form data to and from a character or player account.
  • Hooking into or patching game functions.

There’s no limit to what you can achieve with Mod Support. We very much look forward to seeing what the community can create!

Important: Unfortunately Mod.IO is not available in China. There’s currently no ETA on when it will be made available, but we will update you when the time comes.

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Astrology Rework

We have adjusted the Skill by completely removing the RNG aspect of rerolling modifiers.

Here is a breakdown on the changes:

  • Stars inside constellations now have a predefined modifier. This is the same for everyone (some Stars have 2 modifiers in 1 star).
  • All modifiers start at 0%, and are leveled up using Stardust or Golden Stardust. This is a set cost and there is a maximum limit of upgrades on all Stars.
  • The modifiers you level up are permanent and are always applied to your character.
Stars inside constellations are still locked behind
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Mastery level. These changes will allow you to "complete"
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Astrology. There’s no need to reroll anymore, or rely on RNG for a modifier you’re hoping to achieve.

You will receive a very generous Stardust refund when loading into the game. Don’t forget to go straight into the Skill and spend it to get bonuses back.

New Quality of Life Features

New Consumable Equipment Slot

When loading into the update, you will be greeted with a brand new Equipment Slot - the "Consumables" Slot. This new slot will now be home to all equippable consumable items that are not classed as Ranged Ammunition.

Now, you are no longer required to sacrifice Ranged Ammunition for a Consumable.

Combat Quick-Equip

We have designed a new system to enable an easier gear-swapping experience for everyone.

When clicking on an equipment Slot in Combat, you will be greeted with a new “Quick-Equip” menu. Here you will be able to set up to 3 different pieces of equipment for that specific slot, enabling you to quickly switch between these items without the requirement of opening your Bank.

These slots are unique to their respective Equipment Set. This means you can have different sets of items in each Equipment Set.

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Agility Blueprints

A common suggestion we have received is the ability to make
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Agility Obstacle switching less tedious. With the introduction of the Throne of the Herald expansion (which brings even more Obstacles), we felt now was the right time to introduce something to assist with this. An
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Agility Blueprint is a fancy name we have given to what is essentially an
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Agility Loadout or
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Agility Set. It provides the ability to Save and Load predefined Agility Obstacles as you please.

When setting up an Obstacle Course, you can save that course as a Blueprint. At any given time, you may load that Blueprint to quickly build the Obstacle Course again. You can even apply a custom name to these Blueprints.

This feature is super helpful for those who would like to switch from a Combat-based course to a Skilling-based course.

It is important to note that a Blueprint does not make the Obstacles free. You are still required to front up items and
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
GP equal to whatever it would have cost to manually switch back.

Core Framework Changes (boring but important)

  • Game data structure has completely changed to allow for easier Expansion and Mod development. This will break all pre-expansion Mods. It is important to disable them before loading the update.
  • The game now handles all loading tasks before showing you the character selection screen. This includes Cloud authentication, language and data loading, mod loading and auto updating.
  • Melvor Cloud authentication has changed. It should be faster to authenticate with the Cloud on load now. Your game should automatically convert your session to the new version on load (can take up to a minute or so, this only occurs once).
  • The game now asks you to log in on load (with a fancy new login screen). This can be skipped if you wish to play without the Cloud.
  • Completion is now separated into Base Game and Expansion content (if you own the expansion). There is also a True completion progress.

Other New things

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Firemaking Additions

  • Added a new item - Generous Fire Spirit. This is a random drop which can be opened to obtain 1 of 4 new
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Minor Update - v1.1 (?4673)

Hey everyone!

This is a Minor Update to the game which details recent hotfixes, minor changes as well as another Stardust Refund.

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Township Updates

We’re working hard behind the scenes on some big
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Township changes. I hope to have more information for you soon. It’s very close to being ready for release.

Another Stardust Refund

When loading into this update, those who started their characters prior to Midnight 18 October 2022 (GMT) will receive another airdrop of Stardust.

  • We have decided to base this refund on your total
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Mastery     Level. Here’s what you will receive:
    • Stardust equal to 50 * Total
      Error creating thumbnail: File missing
      Mastery       level (base game constellations only).
    • Golden Stardust equal to 30 * Total
      Error creating thumbnail: File missing
      Mastery       level (base game constellations only).
Although there’s a high chance a lot of you have continued the
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Astrology grind since release resulting in higher
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Mastery levels, we wanted to make things right with the extra refund.

Minor Changes

  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Township     - Citizens will now continue to move into Town, regardless of how much Food you have. Prior to this, citizens used to not move into Town if you had 0 Food.
  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Township     - Buffed Bane
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Worship     100% modifier to -50% Food usage (up from -25%).

    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Thieving     Area Unique Item (up from 0.0025%).

Note: This list details hotfixes applied to the game prior to this update. These fixes were already active.

    Error creating thumbnail: File missing

    Ty     having the hint of
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing

    Mastery    .
  • Fixed standard
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Spell     runes being consumed twice on the hits after the first one for multi-hit special attacks. (e.g. Cloudburst Staff’s Magic Ray). This also fixes a game crash when running out of runes in this circumstance.

    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Curse     spell runes being used every attack instead of just when the curse is applied.
  • Fixed
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing

    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Cooking     interval instead of -2%.

    Error creating thumbnail: File missing

    Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Update v1.0.5 - (5th July 2022)

Introduction

Hello everyone!

With 100% of development is focused on the upcoming Expansion 1, I come bringing a small surprise update for everyone to enjoy while you wait.

As a thank you for the support so far on the
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Cool Rock Plushie sales I have decided to release a new temporary custom Game Mode for you all to enjoy. We’re currently at 80% of our funding goal for the
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Cool Rock Plushies with only under one week to go to reach our sales target! If you would like to help us reach that 100% target, you can do so here.

Nonetheless, even if we don’t reach that target, I believe everyone deserves something as a thank you from us to show our appreciation to the community that continues to support us through and through.

New Temporary Custom Game Mode

Say hello to
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Internal Suffering Speedrun Mode!

Available until: August 31 23:59:59 GMT

We took the concept of the previous
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Hardcore Adventure Speedrun Mode and turned it up to 11. The idea here is to bring a fresh take on how the game is played, and really make you think about your next actions moving forward.

This Game Mode will test your strategic decision making, forcing you to slowly disable Skills the further you progress. You will need to make the call as to what skills you can do without, and what will help you defeat the final boss.

And yes, this is super fast again.

So, what exactly does this game mode entail? Read carefully as there are quite a few important mechanics to keep in mind.

  • As usual, the goal is to defeat the final boss as fast as you can.
  • This is a safe game mode. No character loss on death.
  • Uses the
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Hardcore     Combat Triangle.
  • However, the combat triangle has been reversed! This means
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Melee     now beats
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Magic    ,
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Ranged     beats
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Melee    , and
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Magic     beats
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Ranged    . Check the numbers inside the small triangle tooltip next to your Max Hit and Damage Reduction numbers to see the exact numbers.
  • All skills except
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Firemaking     and
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Farming     are available to you at the start.
  • Your skill level is capped at level 10. This cap can be increased at any time by permanently disabling any non-combat skill. This can be done from the new menu item in the sidebar.
  • For each skill you disable, not including
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Firemaking     or
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Farming    , the skill level cap will increase by 10. This means you need to disable 10 non-combat skills to be able to reach level 99.
  • You can continue training skills when you reach the level cap, you will just earn no further skill XP.
  • Accessing the final boss requires level 99 in all
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Combat     skills to access.

On top of the above unique mechanics, we have made similar adjustments to the intervals as the previous custom game mode:

  • -80% Attack intervals for you and the enemies.
  • -80% Skill intervals (This now also reduces
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Thieving     stun intervals).
  • +800% Global
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Mastery     XP.
  • -2s Monster respawn timer.

You will also notice this game mode uses larger numbers. This is purely visual and provides no real benefit to the game. It is simply done to make the game mode look a bit different.

Other Changes

Firstly, to accommodate for the new game modeI have added another save slot for everyone to use and enjoy!

A month or so ago I posted a thread to Reddit asking the community for feedback on the UI of the game, and requested information on everyone’s biggest UI pet-peeve.

You can view this thread here.

I plan to resolve as many of these UI issues as possible, especially for the release of the expansion.

For now, I took the top comment and adjusted the UI for
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Firemaking,
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Fishing and
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Mining to now display Skill XP,
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Mastery XP, and mastery pool XP you can gain per action (
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Woodcutting already shows this during the action).
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Farming and
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Summoning UI adjustments to show extra information will be coming at a later date! Alongside resolutions for other UI pet-peeves mentioned.

In the future, I plan to ask more questions similar to this so I can gauge an understanding of what everyone is thinking, and what I can do to address the potential concerns or suggestions mentioned.

It’s something I’ve valued since I began development on Melvor Idle, and I want to continue this level of communication moving forward!

Another Expansion 1 Live Stream

In case you missed the news, we have another live stream happening to discuss expansion 1 in more detail. There’s also a live Q&A happening on this stream, so be sure to tune in to get an inside into all things Melvor Idle!

Live Stream Details

Conclusion

Progress on Expansion 1 is looking fantastic. We’re excited to share more information with you all and take a closer look at what can be expected from the update!

I hope you all enjoy the new custom gamemode. Be sure to check out the live stream as there will be some information you won’t want to miss!

Update v1.0.4 - (25th May 2022)

This update introduces a new Save Slot UI to hopefully assist current and future players with their understanding of how the save system in Melvor works.

Our full focus at this stage is on Expansion 1, and progress is looking great! We will have a lot more news to share soon as we delve closer to the release.

New Save Slot UI

There are no functional changes to how the system works, this is just a visual update to provide clarity around the system that is currently present in the game.

You can read about the new Save Slot UI in detail here.

Note: Your characters are already stored inside a Save Slot (The little number to the left of the save). This is the Save Slot the game will use for this update.

Here’s a breakdown of the changes:

  • The game will now display all Save Slots available to you, instead of hiding empty ones.
  • Slightly adjusted the UI of Save Slots to provide clarity around what slot your save is in.
  • The Settings button has moved to a dropdown menu in the top right corner of each Save Slot.
  • An empty save slot will now warn you if an existing Cloud save has been detected in that slot.
  • When attempting to load or import a save, the game will now display exact details of what save will be overwritten in the popup.
  • You can now delete Cloud Saves from the Settings menu dropdown.
  • Cloud saves can now be refreshed inside the game by using the new Refresh icon sitting next to the “Show Cloud/Local Saves” button.
  • If a save produces an error, it will no longer stop the entire game from loading. Instead it will adjust the UI of the save slot to show the save is corrupted. This will help us debug issues you may run into.
  • Downloading a save now includes the Date & Time of the download in the filename.

Update on adding more Save Slots

I can confirm that new Save Slots are on the way for those that have been asking.

Firstly, I want to ensure this new UI is up to par and reduces the issues that have been faced significantly before I go ahead and add more Slots.

If this new UI indeed succeeds in reducing the issues, more save slots (and temporary gamemodes) won’t be far away at all!

Discord RPC

This update adds Discord RPC for Windows clients only.

A small Steam client update was released not too long ago is required for Discord RPC to function. You do not need to update the client to access the general game.

This RPC will display information about:

  • Your current gamemode and total level.
  • What non-combat skill you are training, the action you are performing and the level of that skill.
  • What Enemy you are fighting, and the area/dungeon you are active in.

Changed Features

  • Locked Summoning Synergies in the search UI now displays the Marks and Levels required to unlock that Synergy. This is also colour coded: Green = requirement met, Orange = Requirement not met. If you have not found the first Mark yet, the name will display as “???”.
  • When clicking into the Summoning Synergy search from the minibar, it will default to only showing Synergies for that respective Skill.
  • You can now double click Bones to quickly bury them in the Bank. Only works if the item is not locked.
  • You can now double click Chests to quickly open them in the Bank.
  • You can now click the
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Slayer     Task image to see detailed stats, special attacks and passive of that enemy.
  • Perfect Fish can now be used to create
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Pig     and
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Wolf     Summoning Tablets.
  • You can now downgrade Perfect Fish into normal Fish at a 1:1 ratio. This is just a temporary addition as I will soon be implementing a feature that allows
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Agility     obstacles that cost normal Fish to accept Perfect Fish as well.
  • Slightly updated the UI for buttons in
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Thieving     and Artisan skills.
  • [Mobile only] When selecting a recipe category or item in an Artisan skill, the UI will now automatically scroll to the respective area.

Bugfixes

  • The issue that causes offline progress to get stuck (and produce a timestamp error) will no longer cause the game to become unplayable without a save fix. This doesn’t fix the bug itself (which we are still looking into). Please report offline progress issues if you do run into them after this update.
  • Fixed an issue that caused an error during a cloud save (Cloud save still worked as intended even with this error).
  • Fixed Pet Log completion number not updating automatically.
  • Fixed issue where connecting your Mobile Device for push notifications would get stuck on the loading spinner.
  • When wearing the Bone Necklace, the first item in the Loot container will no longer hold its place.
  • Quick Buy modal no longer appears under the
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Cooking     recipe selection modal.
  • During Sell/Move Item mode in the Bank, the borders of selected items will no longer be removed when moving items to new tabs or positions.
  • Modifiers that affect Enemies now function correctly in the Golbin Raid.
  • Levelling up the Mastery of a Rune in Runecrafting now dynamically updates the UI to show changes.
  • Adjusted the text on the “Render Combat Progress” to now mention it disables Non-combat progress bars as well.
  • Fixed incorrect styling to popup buttons in some circumstances.
  • You can no longer sell the Basic Magic Wand during the Tutorial (which bricks tutorial progress).
  • Fixed undefined translation in
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Thieving     Game Guide.
  • New Adventure Mode characters now correctly start with 100%
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    HP    , instead of only 10%.
  • Fixed issue that breaks the save settings function due to there being an apostrophe present in the character name.
  • Astrology Mastery token is now named correctly, and now has its description.
  • Fixed Golbin Raid shop purchases disappearing after 1 purchase.
  • Fixed visual issues that cause dropdowns to extend above available screen space.
  • Dragonfire Shield now has its original description restored.
  • Quick Equip menu now closes when closing the Skilling Minibar on mobile.
  • Corrupted saves no longer break the game, and instead are isolated to their save slot only.
  • Fixed incorrect Milestone for Normal Shortbows.
  • The Bank Sorting method now correctly displays your current sorting method on load.
  • Fixed typos in some special attacks.
  • Ragnar Godsword and Terran Godsword now display their correct special attack description.
  • Adjusted the wording on the 50%
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Firemaking     Mastery checkpoint to correctly reflect the actual mechanic.
  • Adjusted item description loading for Artisan skills that should hopefully reduce some CPU usage (It used to reload every action, now it only loads once).
  • Corrected grammar for Ancient Magic locked tooltip.
  • Fixed incorrect description of the
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Ranged     Game Guide.
  • The Venom special attack can now miss.
  • Gems now appear correctly in the bank when searching “Gem” or “Gems”.

Update v1.0.3 - (28th February 2022)

This update brings a bunch of much requested quality of life updates, as well as finalizing the transition to the new tick-based system for Skills.

The transition to a tick-based was done over 6 months, and involved rewriting every single Skill from the ground up. Now that it has been completed, this will allow for more efficient updates including efficient implementation of new content.

A note on upcoming new content

Although these latest updates have not introduced anything new for you to try, we can confirm that we have indeed been working on new content behind the scenes at the same time.

There is a massive pipeline of new content on the way, including the much anticipated Expansion 1. This expansion aims to roughly double the amount of content you see in the game, and it has been in planning for quite some time.

Now that the transition to the tick-based system is complete, we can now work efficiently towards Expansion 1 as well as everything in between. Let’s see what’s new inside the February 2022 update.

New Features

Customisable Minibar

  • There is a new “Quick-Equip Menu” for the Minibar (the menu in the bottom right of Skills). This new menu allows you to quickly equip items for the respective Skill. The GEAR icon represents the quick equip.
  • You can customize what items display in this menu for each Skill. This can be done by selecting any equipable item within the Bank, navigating to the Gear icon, and then enabling/disabling this item for each Skill.
  • The order of these items can be adjusted to your liking by dragging and dropping them from within the Quick-Equip Menu.
  • Existing default items from before this update are enabled by default inside this new menu.

Updated Combat Minibar

  • The Combat Minibar that displays during Combat has some new features and functionality.
  • The Enemy HP & Attack Bar has been added above your own, so you can see the progress of the fight more clearly.
  • Your own attack bar has been added below your HP bar.
  • You can now change your Equipment Set from the minibar.
  • New Settings have been added to the Settings Page to enable or disable the visibility of Enemy HP/Attack Bar & Equipment Set Selection.

Click & Hold to Eat

  • You are now able to Click (or tap) & Hold to eat within
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Combat     or
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Thieving    . This will spam eat Food for you.
  • Doing this will not consume more Food than is required.
  • The button will turn green to confirm you are “spam eating”.
  • This works on Mobile versions as well.

This kind of functionality is great if you feel like attempting content before you are prepared enough to idle it.

Other New Additions

  • You can now toggle the visibility of
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Fishing     &
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Thieving     Areas by clicking/tapping the header area where the new “Eyecon” is. This visibility setting is saved for that character.
  • You are now able to “Destroy Loot” by selecting the corresponding button located on the bottom of the Loot Container. This will destroy the Loot if for some reason you do not wish to actually Loot it.

Changed Features

  • The UI for the Skills &
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Mastery     section of the Completion Log has been updated to be much less stressful on the eyes, using distinguished colours to separate each Skill.
  • You can now see the Special Attack & relevant descriptions of Items within the “View Item Stats” & “Upgrade Item” popups. Now you will know exactly what the item does that you are trying to Craft or Upgrade into.
  • Removed the “Pause Skills when Minimized” setting from Mobile. This setting now defaults to “enabled” as there is no reason for this to be turned off on Mobile.
  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Farming     is now unlocked on the Demo Version on Mobile.

Tick-Based Skills

These Skills have now transitioned to the new tick-based system:

  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Fishing
  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Cooking
  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Crafting
  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Fletching
  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Runecrafting
  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Agility
  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Summoning
  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Astrology

This marks the end of the transition to tick-based for Skills, and will now allow us to develop a lot more efficiently in general for the game.

Bugfixes

  • We have been working to address issues with Offline Progress on Mobile. With the transition to tick-based and most affected Skills being rewritten, we hope to have squashed this bug. However, if you experience it again please let us know so we can look into it further.
  • Synergy unlocks now activate as soon as they unlock while training Offline, and will provide the benefit to you immediately.
  • Fixed issues with dropdowns hiding options underneath the game’s header area.
  • Offline progress now accurately accounts for preservation change for all Skills.
  • Auto-equip food now works as intended when training Offline.

    Error creating thumbnail: File missing

    Mole     &
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Octopus     Synergy.
  • Fixed issues with
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Witch     &
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Cyclops     Synergy.
  • Fixed rare issues where
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Cooking     or
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Fletching     would not progress.
  • Artisan Skills should now update the information panel dynamically when game data changes (Like quantities and percentages).
  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Astrology     now correctly updates the “Show All Active Modifiers” panel to display all active modifiers, and those from newly unlocked slots.
  • Fixed rare instances where individual
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Astrology     modifiers could exceed 5%.
  • Fixed visual error with

Introduction

Welcome to the Melvor Idle Holiday 2021 Event!

Thank you to everyone who has offered us such incredible support over the last two years. It has been an amazing journey, and I’m so excited for all the fun that lies ahead!

With the full release out the way, I thought it would be a great idea to celebrate the Holiday Season with a small event for everyone. It may be tiny, but it has some cool rewards for you to collect!

Holiday Event 2021

Santa Chio has been involved in a rather unfortunate accident, and seems to have lost its Christmas Presents! Can you help recover them? You’ll be rewarded for your time and effort if you do…

Head to the Holiday Event 2021 page to find out what must be done!

Event Rewards

In total there are five Event Rewards for helping Santa Chio. All are cosmetic and provide no bonuses. There are also some other items available for you to collect, and you could potentially find a lot of them!

Note: Event Rewards are not required for 100% game completion, and do not appear in the Item Log unless you find one.

Mobile Premium Unlock

Purchasing the Full Version of Melvor Idle on Mobile will now unlock the Full version on other mobile versions, and the web version.

To enable this - log into your Cloud account on a Mobile Device with a valid active purchase. This will enable the Full Version on your Cloud account.

It is not possible to unlock the Steam version if you purchase on Mobile.

New Save Export and Import Setting

There is a new method to export your save and share with others!

From the your character settings on the welcome screen, you can now Create Save Link to export your save. This will generate a unique URL for your save.

This unique URL can be pasted into the Import Save box to import it into the game. You can also visit the link the see the raw save string if you wish. These save URLs do not expire.

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.

Combat Area: Elerine Battlegrounds

  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing

    Error creating thumbnail: File missing

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
    Into the Mist     dungeon is now viewable as an Enemy Passive.
  • If you missed it above, the Controlled Heat & 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 Bones from Bone Offering from 2 to 3.
  • Increased the quantity of Holy Dust from Blessed Offering from 2 to 3.

Farmer was a sure enough factor to rework the Skill.

The aim of this rework is to transition the Skill into an early to mid-game Skill while providing unique bonuses and content that you cannot find anywhere else. We also wanted to ensure Thieving remained viable and somewhat important late-game by the use of consumable items you can only obtain via this Skill.

Due to the nature of this rework, it was not possible to award any Thieving Offline Progress if you were doing so when the update dropped. You will be greeted with some flavour text upon your return.

New NPCs and Unique Drops

We have introduced 15 brand new helpless NPCs for you to pickpocket, many of which are home to unique items that can only be found in Thieving.

NPCs also now reside in different areas or locations (kind of like
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Fishing). Alongside the unique drops from the NPC themselves, you are also able to find unique "area" items which only drop from NPCs within the respective location.

Some of the new drops provide bonuses to Skills or Combat, while others are simply worth a good amount of GP when you sell it.

You may even find some exotic crafting materials, which can be used to make special pouches and bags to aid in your adventures even more.

The Art of Stealth

This rework introduces two new mechanics known as Stealth and Perception.

Perception is a measure of how difficult an NPC is to steal from, while Stealth is how good you are at stealing. Your Stealth competes against an NPC's Perception.

  • Your success rate is determined by: [math]\displaystyle{ 100 \times \tfrac{100 + \text{Stealth}}{100 + \text{Perception}}\% }[/math]
  • Your chance to double items is increased by: [math]\displaystyle{ 25 \times \tfrac{\text{Stealth}}{\text{Perception}}\% }[/math]
  • Your chance to receive an NPC's unique item is: [math]\displaystyle{ \tfrac{100 + \text{Stealth}}{100 \times \text{Perception}}\% }[/math]

Stealth can be increased in a number of ways.

  • Increasing your
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Thieving     level
  • Increasing your
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Mastery     level
  • Filling your
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing

    Error creating thumbnail: File missing

  • Equipping items with Stealth bonuses
  • Potions from
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Herblore
  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Agility     Courses

Balance Changes

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Thieving has been completely rebalanced. The old NPCs have had their level requirements and XP amounts readjusted. Combining this with the addition of new NPCs, leveling Thieving should now be much smoother, and make a decent amount of GP along the way.

Furthermore, anything that used to provide bonuses to Thieving success rate or success rate cap have been changed to provide increases to Stealth or other bonuses.

Interface Overhaul

The interface for
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Thieving has been completely redone. NPCs are now displayed in areas, similar to
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Fishing. Information, such as doubling chance and Thieving interval, are now also shown, similar to
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Smithing or
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Fletching.

A "Show Drops" button has been added. This allows you to see your GP gains, as well as potential loot drops from an NPC. Drops are hidden by the use of a question mark until you find them at least once.

Thieving is Now Tick Based

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Thieving has now been transitioned to be tick-based system, just like
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Combat. This has resulted in the following benefits:
  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Thieving     now has the same resistance to browser throttling that
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Combat     has
  • Offline and Online
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Thieving     are now consistent with each other as they use the same codebase
  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Mastery     now levels up offline and provides the benefits immediately, instead of using the fixed
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Mastery     level you had when you went offline
  • Food is now consumed while
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Thieving     offline
  • You can now perform offline
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Thieving     even if your success rate isn't 100%; however, it is now also possible to die

Cooking Rework

The long awaiting
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Cooking Rework is here!

The aim of this rework is to provide a large rebalance to the use of Food throughout the game, while also providing more options to the Player in what they wish to produce.

Some much requested Quality of Life features have been added, alongside a new “Passive Cooking” mechanic that should provide an extra pair of hands throughout your Melvor journey.

Offline Progress will be awarded for those who were Cooking Offline when the update dropped. Your Offline Progress will be subject to the changes and new mechanics listed.

Cooking Furnace and Cooking Pot

Alongside the
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Cooking Fire, we have now introduced the
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Cooking Furnace and
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Cooking Pot. These new Cooking Utilities (that's what I call them) unlock a wide range of new unique multi-ingredient products you can cook and use in
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Combat or
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Thieving. They act the same way as the
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Cooking Fire does, while also providing their own unique bonuses within Cooking itself. Each Cooking Utility is home to different types Food for you to Cook that can only be obtained by using the respective
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Fire,
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Furnace or
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Pot.

These are required to be purchased from within the Shop prior to being able to use them.

Active Cooking and Passive Cooking

A new mechanic you will notice straight away is the Active Cooking and Passive Cooking buttons implemented into the Cooking UI for each Cooking utility.

Active Cooking

This is your standard way to Cook Food. This will provide you with Skill XP, Mastery XP, Mastery Pool XP and all relevant bonuses relating to the Food you are Cooking.

Only one product can be Actively Cooked at any given time.

Passive Cooking

A brand-new way to Cook Food which will assist with your progression throughout the game.

Passive Cooking is a method of food production that can be done alongside the food you are Actively Cooking, at the same time.

Any Cooking utility that is not being used can perform Passive Cooking as long as you are Actively Cooking something on a different Cooking Utility.

For example: You can be Actively Cooking Fish and can start Passively Cooking Food on the Furnace and Pot at the same time.

Passively Cooked Food is added to something called a “Stockpile”. There is one Stockpile for each Cooking Utility, and this Stockpile can only house one type of Food until it is collected by you. The game will not let you Passively Cook anything if the item sitting in the Stockpile is different from the one your are attempting to produce.

Passive Cooking comes with some very important mechanics that you need to be aware of:

  • No Skill XP, Mastery XP, Mastery Pool XP or Bonuses are provided to Passively Cooked Food. This is solely a Food production mechanic.
  • It takes 5 times as long to Passively Cook a Product than it does to Actively Cook (subject to balance during Test).
  • Recipe costs are the same.
  • Passive Cooks do not count as an "action", therefore they cannot roll for Pets, Mastery Tokens, or other Global Rare Items.

Passive Cooking does work Offline, and your Passively Cooked Food will be stored in your Stockpile. The Offline Progress notification will tell you what has been stored in the stockpile.

In the event you stop Actively Cooking something, all items you are Passively Cooking will also stop. You cannot Passively Cook until you are Actively Cooking something.

Perfect Cook

Perfect Cook is a new mechanic that produces an upgraded version of the base product you are Cooking, providing extra Food Healing values as well as a much higher base Sale Price.

Each Active Cook action has a chance to provide a Perfect product. This chance can be increased using Mastery and other means. It is possible to acquire 100% Perfect Cook chance at later stages of the game.

Perfect Cook is classed as a bonus; therefore, it is not possible to produce a Perfect product using the Passive Cook mechanic.

There is a Setting on the Cooking Page and also in the Settings Page to enable or disable Perfect Cooking. If you do not wish to receive Perfect Items, you can simply toggle it off.

Successful Cook and the removal of Burnt Items

One thing we discussed during the planning process was the use that burnt food provides to the game.

We were quick to decide that burnt products add literally no benefit to the game. This led to the decision that burnt products will no longer be obtainable as we transition to a Successful Cook mechanic.

Now, products that fail to cook will be yeeted into oblivion, providing nothing for your efforts to Cook something delicious.

For those concerned about a specific item that requires Burnt Cave Fish to obtain – take a look at the drop table for the Tentacle Monster in
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Sandy Shores.

This also means all Burnt Food, except the Burnt Cave Fish, is no longer required for 100% item completion (they are also worth 0GP now).

New Shop Upgrades

Along with the rework, we have two new Shop upgrades for you to purchase.

These are Quality of Life upgrades that will help streamline your progression.

  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Cooking Upgrade 1     - Automatically equip Food that is Actively Cooked if that Food is already equipped, or an empty Food slot is available. This can be toggled on or off.
  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Cooking Upgrade 2     - When running out of Food in Combat, automatically swap to a different Food Slot that contains food. This can be toggled on or off.

Food Source & Usage Rebalancing

Along with all the new content added within this rework, we need to address another part of the update.

This rework gave us the opportunity to look at the whole picture in terms of Food and how it is used throughout the game and come to a solution to balance this to our expectations of the game.

Here are the main points for the rebalance (details below in changelog):

  • Healing value for all
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Farming     products has been nerfed quite a lot, in favour of using these products in Cooked Products.
  • The base interval for Cooking Carps, Sharks, Cave Fish, Manta Rays and Whales has been increased.
  • The base sale price for above-mentioned Fish has been increased to accommodate for the increased intervals.
  • The minimum base interval in
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Fishing     for all Cookable Fish has been increased. Maximum base interval remains unchanged. This means on average they will take longer to catch.
It's all well and good to address the Food itself, but we also took the opportunity to address food usage within
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Combat which will also provide some interesting new mechanics throughout the Combat Areas:
  • All Monsters within the
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Spider Forest     Dungeon now have a Special Attack which introduces the brand new Poison mechanic.
  • All Monsters within the
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Icy Hills     Combat Area, and
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Frozen Cove     Dungeon now have a Special Attack, introducing the brand new Frostburn ailment.
  • All Monsters within the
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Dragon Valley     Combat Area now have a Dragonbreath Special Attack (weaker than existing ones). This also means these Monsters that appear in the
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Dragons Den     also contain the new Special Attack.
  • All Monsters within the
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Arid Plains
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Slayer     Area now have a Lesser Sandstorm Special Attack. The Sand Beast keeps its existing Sandstorm Special Attack.
  • The Elementalist now has 4 different Special Attacks. All with a low chance to proc, they will either inflict Stun, Burn, Freeze or Frostburn upon you.
  • The Bandit Leader in the
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Bandit Base     Dungeon has a new Special Attack.
  • The Elder Dragon in the
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Dragons Den     also has a Special Attack now.

New Agility Obstacles

  • Tier 3 - Burning Coals - +3% Cooking Skill XP, +5% Successful Cook Chance, -5% Damage to all Monsters.
  • Tier 5 - Rooftop Run - +3% Thieving Skill XP, +20% GP gained via Thieving, -0.2s Thieving Interval, +35 Stealth, -10% Damage to All Monsters.
  • Tier 8 - Sweltering Pools - +3% Mastery XP in Cooking, -3% Cooking Interval, +10% Healing Value for Food, +10% Auto Eat Efficiency, -20% Global Preservation Chance.

New Potion UI

The Potion UI has got a massive facelift, bringing a brand new design and functionality to help guide you through your Potion hoarding issues.

The brand new Potion UI comes equipped with:

  • Brand new UI inside of a popup that is much more pleasing to look at, with a layout that can fit more Potions on one screen.
  • You can now disable an active Potion by clicking the "Cancel" button.
  • You can now toggle "Auto Re-use Potion" on a per Skill basis from the new UI. This is no longer a Global Setting (remember,
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Combat     is still classed as one Skill).
  • Added new filter settings to hide selected Potion Tiers. Your active Potion will always show.

Ancient Sword Rework

Something I wanted to highlight was the changes made to the Ancient Sword. It was a very lacklustre weapon, and was always overlooked in favour of other weapon choices. This rework aims to address the issues and give it a unique place in the game.

The Ancient Sword now:

  • Provides +20% Damage to all Monsters when you have 100% HP.
  • Has a Special Attack chance of 100%, meaning it will always proc.
  • Is roughly 2 times more common to obtain from the Pirate Booty chest.
  • Has a reduced Special Attack Lifesteal bonus of 20%, down from 25%.

Hopefully these changes make the weapon a viable choice for those around the mid-game.

Alpha v0.21 - (13th August 2021)

Introduction

This Major Update is a lot different than all previous ones released. It focuses on providing an extremely important feature to the game, as well as fixing a lot of issues that have been present.

The lack of new content or changes to explore in this update might be disappointing to some, but I hope what it does provide is the functionality and stability you have been looking for in Melvor Idle.

I also want to point out that pretty much all credit for this update must be handed over to Coolrox95. He was the one who developed the Combat Rewrite and Offline Combat portion of this update. It has allowed for easier growth and scalability within the game, and also enabled one of the most important and highly requested features of the game to become a reality.

I ask that you pass on all thanks to him for this, as this update is not mine to take any credit for.

Combat Rewrite

It was well overdue, but the complete rewrite of
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Combat has been done. This rewrite will allow for faster development, as well as cleaning up many inconsistencies that exist throughout the previous Combat system.

What has Changed?

Most of the rework focused on the back-end side of things, changing the way Combat itself works and operates behind the scenes.

From a general player perspective, you won't notice much of a change at all. There are a few new QoL additions which are detailed below.

The most important change is that Combat has been transitioned to a tick-based system. What this means is that Combat performs its operations every 50ms, allowing for accurate calculations as well as increasing general performance.

New Stuff & QoL

There's a few new features and QoL that you will enjoy:

  • All buffs and debuffs will now display as an icon next to your HP (as well as the Enemy's). They also contain a tooltip detailing their effects and a number showing how many turns are remaining on the debuff.
  • Improved Damage Splashes allow for better visualization of when players/enemies are damaged and healed, and what source the damage is from.
  • Special Attack descriptions that contain buffs/debuffs will now highlight the buff/debuff in a different text colour.
  • Hot-swapping equipment is now possible, which means you can swap gear with a full bank and not have to worry about clearing a slot to unequip something if it is a direct swap.
  • Equipping a two-handed weapon, Javelins or Throwing Knives will now display that same weapon within the 2nd slot it takes up (slightly faded image).
  • There is now a Setting to disable Combat Progress bars if they are causing performance issues.
  • Due to the tick-based functionality, the new Combat system will mitigate browser throttling automatically by comparing timestamps and awarding you the correct progress if a large enough difference is detected.

There has also been some changes to Player Stat Calculations which will make them consistent across the board.

Changes to Player Stat Calculations

Several formulas for player stat calculations have been tweaked slightly to make them consistent with the stat calculations of enemies, as well as correcting some inconsistencies between the different ranged, magic and melee calculations. Overall these changes have resulted in a slight buff to players in combat. Outlined below are the changes to each of the core stats.

Melee & Ranged Max Hits

The base calculation for Melee and Ranged max hit has remained the same and is as follows:

[math]\displaystyle{ \text{Mat Hit} = \left \lfloor \text{Gamemode Multiplier} \times \left (1.3 + \frac{\text{Effective Strength Level}}{10} + \frac{\text{Strength Bonus}}{80} + \frac{\text{Effective Strength Level} \times \text{Strength Bonus}}{640} \right ) \right \rfloor }[/math]

Strength bonus refers to the bonus provided by equipment. Gamemode Multiplier refers to the multiplier to all HP related values for a gamemode. This is 10 for Standard and
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Hardcore mode, and 100 for Adventure mode. Effective Strength Level is calculated from the player's skill levels and any hidden levels. This calculation has been changed for players to be consistent with enemies as follows:
Effective Melee Strength Level

Old: [math]\displaystyle{ \text{Strength Level} + \text{Hidden Strength Levels} + 8 }[/math]

New: [math]\displaystyle{ \text{Strength Level} + \text{Hidden Strength Levels} + 9 }[/math]

Effective Ranged Strength Level

Old: [math]\displaystyle{ \text{Ranged Level} + \text{Hidden Ranged Levels} + \text{Style Bonus} }[/math]

New: [math]\displaystyle{ \text{Ranged Level} + \text{Hidden Ranged Levels} + 9 }[/math]

Note: The style bonus for the Accurate style has been changed to just provide +3 Hidden Ranged Levels. Overall this change increases the Effective Ranged Strength level by +9.

Magic Max Hits

The base calculation for magic max hit as remained the same for players:

[math]\displaystyle{ \text{Max Hit} = \left \lfloor \text{Gamemode Multiplier} \times \text{Spell Max Hit} \times \left ( 1 + \frac{\text{Magic Damage Bonus}}{100} \right ) \left ( 1 + \frac{\text{Magic Level} + \text{Hidden Magic Levels} + 1}{200} \right ) \right \rfloor }[/math]

Magic Damage Bonus is the percent bonus provided by equipment.

Enemies have been changed to use the same formula as players, and have had their spell selection and magic damage bonuses adjusted to produce similar max hits as before, resulting in slightly lower values overall.

Evasion Ratings

The base calculation for evasion ratings is as follows:

[math]\displaystyle{ \text{Evasion Rating} = \text{Effective Defence Level} \times \left ( \text{Defence Bonus} + 64 \right ) }[/math]

Melee Evasion

The effective Defence level calculation has been changed to be consistent with Ranged and Magic Evasion.

Old: [math]\displaystyle{ \text{Defence Level} + \text{Hidden Defence Levels} + 8 }[/math]

New: [math]\displaystyle{ \text{Defence Level} + \text{Hidden Defence Levels} + 9 }[/math]

Ranged Evasion

The effective Defence level calculation has remained the same as:

Effective Defence Level: [math]\displaystyle{ \text{Defence Level} + \text{Hidden Defence Levels} + 9 }[/math]

Magic Evasion

The effective Defence level calculation has remained the same as:

Effective Defence Level: [math]\displaystyle{ 0.7 \times \left ( \text{Magic Level} + \text{Hidden Magic Levels} \right ) + 0.3 \times \left ( \text{Defence Level} + \text{Hidden Defence Levels} + 9 \right ) }[/math]

Accuracy Ratings

The base calculation for accuracy rating is as follows:

[math]\displaystyle{ \text{Accuracy Rating} = \text{Effective Attack Level} \times \left ( \text{Attack Bonus} + 64 \right ) }[/math]

The attack bonus is the bonus provided by equipment.

Melee Accuracy

The effective Attack level calculation has been changed:

Old: [math]\displaystyle{ \text{Attack Level} + \text{Hidden Attack Levels} + 8 }[/math]

New: [math]\displaystyle{ \text{Attack Level} + \text{Hidden Attack Levels} + 9 }[/math]

Ranged Accuracy

The effective Attack level calculation has been changed:

Old: [math]\displaystyle{ \text{Ranged Level} + \text{Hidden Ranged Levels} + \text{Style Bonus} }[/math]

New: [math]\displaystyle{ \text{Ranged Level} + \text{Hidden Ranged Levels} + 9 }[/math]

Note: The style bonus for the Accuracy style has been changed to just provide +3 Hidden Ranged Levels. Overall this change increases the Effective Attack Level by +1.

Magic Accuracy

The effective Attack level calculation has been changed:

Old: [math]\displaystyle{ \text{Magic Level} + \text{Hidden Magic Levels} + 8 }[/math]

New: [math]\displaystyle{ \text{Magic Level} + \text{Hidden Magic Levels} + 9 }[/math]

Summoning Max Hit
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Summoning max hit has been changed to combine the values of both Summons. Previously it was the largest value of both Summons.

Offline Combat

Along with the rewrite, Offline Combat has also been added.

Offline Combat follows the same rules and functionality of all other Skills in the game. There is a 12 hour Offline cap, and you will be provided with your experience and items upon returning to the game.

The benefit of a tick-based system really shows here, allowing for players to log back into the game at the exact moment they would be if they were training Online.

Here is a breakdown of general Offline Combat features:

  • Offline Combat is calculated exactly as it would be if you were training Online.
  • Returning from an Offline Session will continue exactly where you would be if you were training Online. This includes the progress of a Dungeon, the HP of you or the Monster, and also how far into an Attack you are.
  • All dynamic modifiers to players and enemies are taken into account while Offline, including temporary modifiers from special attacks.
  • All Combat content can be completed Offline, with the exception of
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Into the Mist     where you will return to the game at the start of the first boss fight (due to the Dungeon Pause mechanic).
  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Auto Slayer     works Offline, and follows the same rules as Online does when selecting a new Monster to fight.
  • Amulet of Looting works Offline and will collect all Loot, as long as you have the available Bank space. Training without this Amulet will cause your loot to fill up the loot container (max 16 slots).
  • Bone Necklace works Offline and will bury all Bones that are dropped automatically.
  • All
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Combat
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Summoning     Familiars and their respective Synergies work Offline.
  • Offline Progress popup will display relevant XP gained, Monsters killed, food consumed,
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Prayer     Points Used, Runes & Arrow consumption,
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Slayer Coins     earned,
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Summoning     Tablet usage, number of
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Slayer     Tasks completed.
  • Yes, it is possible to die Offline (more details about this below).

Dying Offline

As mentioned above, it is possible to die while Offline in Combat.

Dying while Offline will result in the same consequences as dying Online. This means losing an Item for Standard/ Adventure Characters and losing your Character entirely for
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Hardcore Characters.

If you die Offline, Combat will not progress. There is also no way of the game notifying you that you died while away due to the nature of the game.

To help mitigate the risk of accidental deaths, these have been added to the game:

  • Offline Combat is disabled by default, and must be enabled by the Player.
  • Attempting to enable Offline Combat will display a large warning screen, where a Player must agree to the listed points before being able to turn it on.
  • Offline Combat can be disabled at any time. Re-enabling will require the same points as above to be agreed upon again.
  • You can now view the stats and special attacks of Monsters you have killed from the Monster log.

Offline Combat is DISABLED by default for all Characters. You will be required to enable it for each Character if you wish to use it (you won't miss the notification in game). This can be enabled/disabled as you please from the Settings page.

Alpha v0.20 - (11th June 2021)

Summoning

Introduction

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
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
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
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
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
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
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Slayer     Shop to assist with Summoning
  • Two new
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Agility     Obstacles to also assist with Summoning
  • Yet another new
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Herblore     Potion for (you guessed it) Summoning
  • And of course, we also have the Summoning Skillcape and the Summoning Mastery Token

Woodcutting Changes

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
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
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Multi-Tree upgrade you can purchase from the Shop that is causing these issues.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
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
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Ty, and future global Pets), Signet Ring Half (a), and was also the go-to for the
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
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
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
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
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Multi-Tree Upgrade.

Summarized Changes to Woodcutting

  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    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
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    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
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Woodcutting to a single action now allows me to buff global rare items without worrying about further snowballing the effects of the old
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
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.

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 (
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Smithing,
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Fletching,
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Crafting,
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Runecrafting,
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Herblore &
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
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.

Alpha v0.19.2 - (1st April 2021)

April Fools Event

Welcome to the next Event Update for Melvor Idle!!

This update celebrates Melvor Idle's 2nd favourite day of the year - April Fools!

This year, we've decided to turn it up a bit and provide you with something fun and chaotic to enjoy for a few weeks.

CHAOS MODE

CHAOS MODE is an all new limited gamemode for you to try! Coming equipped with an array of fun mechanics and features for you to mess around with.

The idea behind Chaos Mode is to get as far as you can in the shortest amount of time. I personally won't track the time, but the Gamemode will only be playable for a few weeks.

The rules of CHAOS MODE are simple:

  • Item Corruption is unlocked
  • 25% Interval Reduction on all Skills and Attack Speeds (Including Enemy)
  • All Enemies you face will have at least 1 random Passive
  • All equipped items are lost on Death
  • BIG NUMBERS
  • Same Combat Triangle as Hardcore & Adventure Mode
  • Golbin Raid is not available
  • Don't fight a Chicken

Item Corruption

Item Corruption is only available in CHAOS MODE.

You are given the power to use the Weapons & Gear you make or find, and turn them into completely random modifiers that either benefit you, or make your adventure a living hell.

Item Corruptions are applied to a Combat Equipment Slot, and are permanent as long as you don't roll another modifier. This means you have 10 "slots" to add random corruptions to.

These Item Corruptions cost GP to perform, equal to the value of the Item. There is a chance for the item to be destroyed, because why not? Corruptions are also based on a tier system, where the higher tier modifiers provide larger bonuses, as well as having more modifiers active at once.

Here is the tier list:

  • Tier 1 - Base Item Values < 200 GP - 1 Random Modifier - Low Modifier Value Range (+/-30) - 40% Chance to Destroy the Item
  • Tier 2 - Base Item Values < 10K GP - 2 Random Modifiers - Medium Modifier Value Range (+/-50) - 30% Chance to Destroy the Item
  • Tier 3 - Base Item Values < 400K GP - 3 Random Modifiers - High Modifier Value Range (+/-75) - 20% Chance to Destroy the Item
  • Tier 4 - Base Item Values >= 400K GP - 4 Random Modifiers - Very High Modifier Value Range (+/-99) - 10% Chance to Destroy the Item

The item must be equipped to the respective Equipment Slot for a corruption to be applied. You don't need to keep the item in that slot to keep the Corruption though.

Other Silly Nonsense

In true April Fools fashion, there is a bunch of other silly nonsense through the game. Have fun with this!

New Features

  • Enemy Special Attack descriptions now display the damage value based on your Damage Reduction, instead of the base damage.
  • Your listed Max Hit now includes values from your Damage Modifiers (Not including Special Attacks).

Alpha v0.19 - (4th March 2021)

Agility

It's been a while, but now is the perfect time to introduce our next Skill into the game.

Introduction

Classed as a "Gathering" Skill,
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Agility is designed to provide numerous "Global Active Passives" to your character that can assist with pretty much all areas of the game. Almost all numbers can be affected by Agility in one way or another.

You are given the task of constructing your very own Agility Obstacle Course, with each obstacle you build coming equipped with different Agility XP rates, GP Rates, time to complete (Obstacle Interval) and Global Active Passives attached to it.

Starting at the very first obstacle, your character will complete each Obstacle in their respective order until a lap is complete. Upon completing a lap, you will restart the Obstacle Course and go again. You cannot choose which obstacle to start it, it is always the first.

Strategic planning and thinking will come into effect with this Skill, and how you utilise the various Obstacles is entirely up to you.

Obstacles

For every 10
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Agility Levels, you will be provided with an empty spot to construct an Obstacle of your choosing. All obstacles are categorized to suit their respective position within your Agility Course, meaning you can't place an Obstacle anywhere you like. In total, there are roughly 43 Obstacles to build, each with individual
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Masteries to complete.

These Obstacles, as mentioned above, come equipped with various benefits, buffs and debuffs. It is up to you to make a decision as to which Obstacle is best suits your current needs.

Building an Obstacle is not free. There is always a GP cost attached to it, and some later obstacles require various extra Items to build.

Active & Inactive Obstacles

When building an Obstacle, the Global Active Passives provided are always active in most circumstances.

An Obstacle becomes inactive if there is a gap in your Obstacle Course prior to it. Inactive Obstacles disable their respective Global Active Passives. The gap must be filled before they reactivate.

Remember, if you cannot reach the Obstacle during your training, that Obstacle will be inactive. This also means you cannot gain any XP or GP from this Obstacle. Don't worry though, the game will tell you if an Obstacle is inactive.

Obstacle Cost Reductions

I'll be honest, Obstacles are not cheap, especially late game.

You will find yourself swapping Obstacles quite consistently based on what your current goal is throughout the game. To help with this, there is many ways you can reduce the cost of Obstacles to ease the burden of costs.

Here are some ways to ease the pain:

  • Every time you construct an Obstacle, you gain +4% Item Cost Reduction for that Obstacle only. Stacks up to 10 times maximum for a total of +40% Item Cost Reduction.
  • Reaching Level 80
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Mastery     will grant +10% Cost Reduction for that Obstacle only.
  • Reaching Level 95
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Mastery     will grant +10% Cost Reduction for that Obstacle only.
  • 50%
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Mastery     Pool bonus grants +10% Cost Reduction for all Obstacles.
  • 95%
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Mastery     Pool bonus grants +15% Item Cost Reduction for all Obstacles.
  • Agility Skillcape (and Max/ Completion Cape) grants +20% Cost Reduction for all Obstacles while equipped.

Item Cost Reduction is capped at 95%.

Agility Pet

With the inclusion of a new Skill, that also means a new Pet is introduced alongside it!

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Sam - +15% GP from Agility.

Agility Potion

To help you along for this journey, a new Potion has been added to the game to give you that much needed, totally not illegal boost to your Obstacle Course training.

Performance Enhancing Potion - [2, 4, 6, 8]% Decreased Agility Interval. [10, 20, 30, 50] Charges.

And yes, a new Potion means new
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Masteries for
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Herblore ;)

Agility Skillcape

What good is a new Skill without a nice Cape to wear and brag about?

Agility Skillcape - 20% Global Agility Obstacle cost reduction.

Adventure Mode

The 3rd and final Official Gamemode that will change everything about the way you play the game.

Adventure Mode brings a whole new challenge to the game, forcing you to make strategic decisions at every step of your journey.

In this Gamemode, Skills are locked behind a GP cost that must be unlocked individually. Every time you decide to unlock a Skill, the cost of the next unlock increases.

At the start of the Gamemode, the only Skills available to you are
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Attack,
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Strength,
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Defence, and
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Hitpoints. Everything else is locked.

To help kickstart your new adventure, you are given a Bronze Weapon and 10 Basic Food. So generous, right?

Adventure Mode is also bound by the same Combat Triangle Modifiers you find in
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Hardcore Mode.

Sounds easy, what's the catch?

Leveling Skills in Adventure Mode is completely different to Standard. Non-Combat Skill Levels cannot go above your Combat Level.

When you eventually reach the maximum level, the Skill will still continue to train as normal, but you won't receive any further XP. You will need to go back into Combat, and level your Combat Level.

Summarized Rules of Adventure Mode

  • Skills are locked behind a GP cost to unlock.
  • Start with only
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Attack    ,
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Strength    ,
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Defence    , &
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Hitpoints     unlocked.
  • A Bronze Weapon and 10 Basic Food is provided in your bank at the start.
  • Your Non-Combat Skill Levels cannot go above your Combat Level.
  • Hitpoints, Damage, and Healing numbers are multiplied by a further 10 (just a visual change).
  • Harsher Combat Triangle Modifiers. Same as Hardcore Mode.
  • This is a safe Gamemode. It is okay to die.

Boss Pets

Boss Pets have finally arrived to the game!

These cute little critters can be found in every single Dungeon in the game. Upon killing a Boss in a dungeon, you have a chance of obtaining one of the Boss Pets!

These Boss Pets provide a small Combat bonus to assist you in your adventures.

For those curious, the
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Into the Mist Boss Pet requires 5 completions of the Dungeon. This is also unlocked retroactively, so there is no need to complete another 5.

Golbin Raid - Stage 2

The long awaited Stage 2 of the Golbin Raid Development Plan has finally arrived.

New Additions

  • The Raid Shop is now active. You can purchase upgrades, Items and Pets in this shop. All Items and Pets in the Raid Shop do not count towards completion.
  • Non-Combat skills will now go into offline mode during the Raid. This means you can train them while participating in Raids.
  • Added (Alt) Weapons to the Raid. (Alt) Weapons have a completely random Special Attack attached to them. You cannot see what the Special Attack will be, and the Special Attack does not change unless you pick a different weapon.
  • Prayer can now be unlocked and leveled up via the Raid Shop (for the Golbin Raid only).
  • The Combat Passive Slot can be unlocked via the Raid Shop. If unlocked, you have the option to acquire a Random Passive Item at the end of every 10 waves.
  • There is now a chance for the Golbins you face to have a random Passive attached to them. Be sure to look out for these and take note of why the Golbin you are facing is harder to kill than Ragnar.
  • You can now see the stats of items in the Item Selector. It also compares to what you currently have equipped.
  • You can now skip waves in the Raid at a cost of Raid Coins. This cost can be reduced via the Raid Shop.
  • New Item - Yellow Party Hat - Acquired in the Golbin Raid Shop. Does not count towards Item Completion.
  • New Pet -
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Balancing

  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing

  • Start with 500 of each elemental Rune, up from 100.

  • There's a few items in the Raid Shop to assist you with the Raid. These include increases to Quantity of Ammo, Runes and Food found during the Raid.
