This guide | This guide explains the combat and gear progression. | ||
It | It is written for the characters of [[Game_Mode#Standard|Standard]] game mode. If you play {{Icon|Hardcore}} or {{Icon|Adventure}} modes, the preparation for certain events is different, especially for the {{ZoneIcon|Fire God Dungeon}}. | ||
The guide starts with the overview on how combat works, the stats, and what items affect them. After that, it describes in detail the leveling before the first challenging dungeon of the game, the {{ZoneIcon|Volcanic Cave}}. It goes over the god dungeons and concludes with the guidance for the endgame content. | |||
There are several non-combat skills that improve various parts of your combat experience: | |||

Other skills are necessary for smooth progression and to provide the funds for it: | |||
* {{Skill|Fletching}}, | |||
* {{Skill|Smithing}}, | |||
* {{Skill|Crafting}} for jewelry and ranged armor, | |||
* {{Skill|Firemaking}} because its significant XP boost, | |||
* {{Skill|Fishing}}/{{Skill|Farming}}/{{Skill|Cooking}} for healing. | |||
In general, the idea is to deal most damage per minute and stay alive because dying will result in losing a piece of gear. Losing the item that takes a month to acquire is not what you want to experience. | |||
Melvor Idle in general is not competitive, so it is recommended to set a goal and work towards it. Things like {{ItemIcon|Fury_of_the_Elemental_Zodiacs|FEZ}} are highly satisfying to finish. Clearing God Dungeons also greatly assists the core game skills, so maybe {{UpgradeIcon|Master of Nature}} is your goal. | |||
